This belief applies to the Knight, Bard and Bardess characters. The Big Guy evens out the battlefield when you are against foes more powerful than you by smiting them and healing you, but he requires you to eat a lot of food to summon his power. While worshiping the Big Guy, eating food takes four times as long as it normally would.
