Encounter Text[]
Upon Encounter[]
This woman offers to join the group, along with her ARMY OF SKELETONS!
She asks for either 10 food, or that she gets to turn [Leading Character] into a skeletal minion.
Upon Recruiting[]
10 Food - Samedi looks a little disappointed. Maybe it's because she would have preferred to turn someone into a skeleton.
Minion - Samedi waves her hand at [Character]. [His/Her] cumbersome flesh falls off, revealing a wonderful skeleton underneath.
Much better! Big improvement! Well, let's go.
Full party[]
Samedi needs more skeleton room! You have to get rid of someone:

Epilogue[]
"I owe it all to the skeletons!"
Samedi grew an enormous skeleton army. They never did much, she just liked to collect them.
Special Abilities[]
When Samedi begins a scavenging mission she will summon a skeleton to fight for her. She will also spawn two additional skeletons every time she takes damage, similar to the Cat Lady.
Upon dying for the first time Samedi will explode, killing zombies around her. She will then return to life with a skeletal body and full health.
If you chose 'minion' when she joined, the character turned into a skeleton will have their Vitality set to 1, their unarmed attack will be set to Claw and their information will show 'is now a HALF-HUMAN, HALF-SKELETON!'
Trivia[]
- Samedi's name likely comes from Baron Samedi, a loa of Haitian Vodou. Samedi is also French for 'Saturday'.
- If Samedi's head is replaced (e.g. through the Head Swap Doctor), she'll lose the ability to spawn skeletons upon taking damage.
- If you win with Samedi (in her skeleton form) you will earn the I Hate Skeletons cheevo.
