Humidifiers can be made in the sizes of 1×1 and 2×23. The 2×2 variant greatly increasing the radius of the dread emitted, but have a higher cost of 24 clay.
This is one of the currently the only decoration in the game that povides dread. Ohter good sources of dread include using dire roads and certain law buildings, such as stocks and scaffolds. Dread is useful for keeping slaves submissive, and can be used to make Garthimi and Argonosh subjects happier (as well as bing necessary to attract Argonosh from their havens), but will make Cretonians unhappy.
In addition to providing dread for Garthimi and Argonosh, they also have humidifiers as a desired decoration. This means that it provides even further happiness for these subjects, making htem ideal for cities with a high population of either.
