The kind of sustenance one's body requires is determined by one's diet trait.  Different diet types have different requirements; for

ametabolic individuals do not eat and drink at all, and photovores create their own food using sunlight.

Diet types

Ametabolic

Generally a side effect of major biological changes, this diet entirely prevents eating and drinking all but a very small number of things, though thankfully, it also means you no longer get hungry or thirsty at all, the downside, though, is you also can't get drunk, or consume items for the sake of buffs.

Allovore

Everything is edible, even things that are not food, even things that aren't intended to be food, even things that would defy the laws of physics to be food. You're not likely to have this diet, ever.

Apochi Empsychon

Only found on adveni, this diet simply means that you're incapable of eating the flesh of living things in all but the most dire circumstances. So basically "vegetarian".

Carnivore

Can only consume flesh and other flesh-like materials typically found in living things, which also includes some materials that aren't specifically 'meat'.

Carniphile

You principly eat the materials carnivores do, but when hungry enough, can put up with herbivore-relevant materials too.

Frugivore

A broader diet than it first appears, you eat not just fruit-based materials, but anything particularly sugary.

Herbivore

Plant-based materials are your food, and this diet is pretty straightforward, as such.

Incendivore

Flammable materials and liquids, pretty much anything you'd feed a fire, or a car with.

Manavore

You subsist on the background magical energy of the universe, which means you're practically ametabolic, but can still consume edible things that happen to be magical, if you happen to be hungry or thirsty enough.

Mucovore

This rather gross diet isn't really found on anything yet, but at the very least, its exact nature has been laid out pretty concisely.

Materials: Choleric Bile, Hemolymph, Honey, Ice, Ichor, Jelly, Melancholic Bile, Mucus, Phlegm, Semen, Slime. Properties: Drug, Spice

Omnivore

Self-explanatory, basically. Can eat the things carnivores can eat, and the things herbivores can eat, though less 'normal' materials at the very least require you to be hungry enough.

Organivore

Is it organic? It's food.

Photovore

Found on plant-based races, as well as a side effect of empathic bonds based on the sun or light, this makes the sun your primary source of nutrition, but your ability to drink liquids isn't affected.

Sanguivore

Consumes the vital humors of live or dead living things, can't drink water. Gives an exsanguinating bite maneuver which can be used offensively, or, with consent, nonviolently.

Scavenger

Like carnivore, but pickier, preferring meats that haven't been processed, straight from the tap.
