A change of pace brings us with something a bit more nightmarish this week with tonight’s adventure update being no food for thought. As the party investigate the pantry they find something not what they were bargaining for…
So grab some pots, pans and a ladle or two as we cool up a storm in tonight’s adventure!
No Food for Thought

As the door swung open a sigh of relief came from Glenda. ‘Oh its just Rueb. Rueben is my assistant who has been good enough to go into the pantry down stairs to get ingredients and try and find those rats.’ Glenda smiled but the party could tell something was wrong. The man was decomposing and despite the man moving around normally there was a stiffness in how they walked.
‘Sorry Glenda. I have not caught those rats.’ the man said as he glanced lightly over at Talley. ‘I am very close, though to catching a big one.’ he spoke in a soft voice. As he finished speaking a clump of hair fell from his head to the floor, drifting slowly until it landed at his feet.
‘The poor lad isn’t well and can’t stay on his feet for too long. But he’s getting there. I let him stay here where its warm and safe and he works hard.’ she added. Behind him in the pantry something moved, a thud on the stairs and the sound of something skittering in the dark beyond.
‘These folks are just helping me with young Talley here then they will be down there to get rid of the rats for us…’ Glenda began.
‘No, I’ve got this. You don’t need them. Let me handle this.’ he snapped at the dwarf. A pressure emanated from the man before Glenda’s face relaxed.
‘You’re right Rueb. You’ve got this. I don’t need them.’ she said with her eyes unfocused.
‘Miss Glenda. My friends are in there. I’ve heard them. The man is keeping them down there!’ Talley erupted. The sudden burst of noise caused Glenda to stumble before looking between the girl and the man. ‘Is this true. Are those poor children down there Rueben?’
As if on silent command the skittering erupted from down below as the stairs shook as several grutesque legged brains scuttled up the stairs. ‘The others grow tired of hiding. There is no escaping now fools.’
Thanks for coming back for another night. Don’t forget that the next few nights I will expand this adventure to add more content to this adventure. So don’t forget to come back to my tabletop for the rest of the week to stay up to date on what’s happening. And lastly, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
