Human Leather Quest

[Zoomaster]

I need help with how to get a bunch of human leather for a quest.

The obvious answer is to butcher some people up, but I've been light on raids and nobody here is a psychopath, cannibal, e.t.c.

Are there any less obvious ways to get some leather? Any trades that can be made, or such? Thank you.

Towns and bulk good traders usually have a random selection of leathers on them, which can include human. You could call in a bunch of caravans and send your own caravans out to visit towns near you, but the chances aren't that high you will find any within the limited duration of a quest.

If you haven't cracked open the ancient danger yet, that would be a fast way of solving the "low on raids" issue (but not the "no psychopath" issue obviously.)

I'm not sure what your situation is really, but if you have the assets to, you could send some pack animals and fighters on a caravan to go murder some tribals. After the fight, haul back their bodies to butcher. Bodies are pretty heavy which is why I mentioned animals. They aren't required, though you more than likely couldn't bring back all the bodies without animals.

Edit: I just remembered you can also build temporarily on the map of an attack on a faction, so you could butcher the bodies there and bring back just the leather. You could then leave the meat, though I'm not sure if that would actually save weight or not.
