What are the Snack Witches Selling at the Fall Fair?
Taking a break from Fat Bear Week posting because I was inspired by a grocery store flyer
...
- Sage Butter Corn, 13sp. Cooked in husk over embers, then shucked, dunked in sage butter, then rolled in fresh cheese. Served on a stick. Even this diluted, sage harvested in the correct way has warding properties. For the remainder of the day, gain +1 to surprise and initiative rolls, and all saving throws against surruptitious threats.
- Beetroot Pie, 12sp. Flaky pastie branded with the witches' crest, full of rich purple gravy. Beets make you strong. Gain 1d6+1 Strength for the rest of the day. Additionally, succeed at your next feat of human strength, or have a 30% chance of succeeding a feat of inhuman strength.
- Roasted Yams, 11sp. Split open and sprinkled with coarse sugar, melted to caramel. A sleepy potato demon possesses you when you eat this, if someone buries you in the earth you could sleep for six months. Even if they don't, for the rest of the day you have infravision and your movement speed is halved.
- Pumpkin Soup, 5sp. Served in a sugar pumpkin shell. Rich and heavily spiced, topped with fresh cream and toasted seeds. Fills you with a deep inner warmth. For the rest of the day, suffer no ill effects from bad weather and have +1 to saving throws against cold.
- Rosemary Bread, 17sp. Always the first to sell out. Leave the heel on your doorstep to tempt helpful fairies in (bad fairies hate rosemary). Good fairies will keep house for you in exchange for a saucer of cream and heel of bread per day.
