Player's ear

Losing your ear reduces your Charisma by 1 permanently.

Behind the Scenes

 * The item description is one of the occasions in Fallout 2 where the game implies that you are playing a video game.
 * Unlike a Mutated toe, you cannot eat your ear, nor force-feed it to anyone else.
 * This is a reference to the infamous boxing incident when Mike Tyson Bit off a portion of Evander Holyfield's ear.
