Just Desserts
Vol. 4 of the Cakewalk collection
Interested in a career in gastropolitics? Finished all your vegetables? Then unsheathe your +1 ice cream scoop, ‘cos this is the 5th edition adventure for you.
For decades, the twin castles of Sahl-Ad and Dez-Urt coexisted in blissful harmony… until the arrival of Nia Politana, the ice queen. Now the count of Dez-Urt is dead, Nia rules in his stead, and from her frigid throne she hatches a plot to freeze the entire isle of Kubbard. The veggiekin villagers call out for help before the cold drives them from their homes… will you stand up to the icy tyrant for the people?
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!
