Ascent of the Sour Serpent
Vol. 1 of the Cakewalk collection
Fond of raiding ancient temples? Can you outrun a giant rolling jawbreaker? Then crack your gummywhip, ‘cos this is the 5th edition adventure for you.
Deep within the Great Food Pyramid, the hideous Hissophelia cooks up her latest revenge plot against the Gods of Flavour. The missing ingredient? None other than the life essence of the residents of Fondant Falls, which she will use to awaken the mighty Jörmungummdr and wreak havoc upon Y’ummm. Can you slay the sinister gummydusa and break her sour curse before it’s too late?
This unique, easy-to-run monster hunting adventure is playable at a variety of levels. Investigate the creature to find its weaknesses, prepare your plan of attack, then unleash your fury and win magnificent loot!
