You head on over to <player> and hand them a roast beast. They seem exceptionally happy to receive it. And also a little curious what kind of beast it might be. The look of pure, almost child-like joy at the simple act just warms your heart. All the way down to the cockles. Even in the sub-cockle region. You get an effect, Holiday Cheer.

- This is a holiday gift. It's meant to be generously given to someone else. Someone else is, by definition, not yourself. Also, as you already have it, giving it to yourself is the same as doing nothing. See?
