If we're down for the count and there is only one critter on us/in the room, could they wander away instead of beating us like there's a gang of them there until we're actually dead?
If there were no cost or sacrifice involved, there wouldn't be any benefits worth learning, and the entire system would be pointless. --GM Wythor

No. Please think. Why in the world would they do that.
IC: Do we as adventurers do this? Not even close. The intelligent ones, why would they not kill us when we actively hunt them down and slaughter them wholesale? The non-intelligent beast ones, hey, gotta eat. Maybe they should continue to attack us (eat) when we're dead.
OOC: Hunting has to have some negative, aka RISK. Death is the risk you take. Regardless of the number of mobs you are attacking.

Also: Moo.

I can name quite a few more that mutilate bodies.
Kartais often nip off bits (hands in particular I think). Germs will snap your neck or just rend your entire body (External wounds EVERYWHERE).
... hmmm both Rigby critters. Coincidence?

I seem to recall if you die alley thugs will loot your corpse.
True/false?
And if true... Yet another Rigby monster. So evil.

I believe they'd just go through your stuff and take random gems.
Anyone wanna go die for science?

Scavenger trolls will actually take items off your body, and not just weapons.
One of them took a friend's leather mask off him once and he never saw it again. It was a feature hider and he had to assist to get his face fixed.

Supposed to, yes...but unless you're hunting with a group, or help arrives VERY quickly in that rather outlying area, the troll with your stuff will despawn rather rapidly.
Sarkranis: "From outside of the Empath's guild, go east, north, and through the hospital backdoor."
Trinean: "I'm not sure I trust healing through the back door."
Zamara: "It's not so bad, once you get used to it."

If you manage to kill it you can get your crap back.
That said, a friend of mine dropped his bonded glaes sabre in there when he died, a troll snatched it within seconds and despawned less than 30 seconds later.
He got it replaced fortunately, but uh... Yeah, scavenger trolls are buggy and will take your crap.
