i tried to make cookiebars as a first take to making cookiebars for my students for being willing to be guinea pigs for me bc my take was “i will feed these to my friends at d&d, who will eat any cookie, because free food” and i managed to somehow so monumentally fuck them up that they are now just small balls of oil and chocolate chips i put into a cookie tin, and james keeps laughing at me
its not bread pudding bad (theyre edible, and taste good, they just drip oil because i accidentally completely melted the margarine into a hot bowl of oil) but it’s…..pretty bad.
You need to tell us if the D&D group eats them when that comes to pass.
The GM/DM should introduce them into the game, like “you discover a box labeled “solid-form potions – prototype (beneficial effects, various)” and they can eat one in the game by eating one in real life and the GM gives them a randomly-selected effect, with randomly-selected side effects.
“You are perfectly filled with energy. You can feel it resonating through your body. You feel like you can do anything. You are stronger, your magical reserves are higher than they’ve ever been, you strongly suspect you’re faster. You’re also glowing like an incandescent lightbulb.”
“Your health is fully restored, including that slight twinge in your knee you’ve been ignoring. You feel a moderate craving for deep-fried pickles.”
“Your hair turns a particularly attractive shade of green.”
“Your vocal range has expanded by seven half-notes in each direction. Also, you smell faintly of cabernet sauvignon and the moldy interior of a decrepit opera house.”
“You are immune to the cutting force of bladed weapons. Every blade within about eight feet of you is now dull.”
“Gravity has less of a hold on you than usual. You fall slowly, and can leap two-story buildings in a single bound. Birds find you extremely attractive and might attempt to mate with your hair.”
“Everything tastes of peppermint. Your lips are an attractive shade of frosted pink.”
“For the next two hours, you will regenerate from all major damage including blows that ought to have been fatal. However, a bald wizard in a wheeled chair will show up and follow you, trying to get you to join his team of adventurers with oddball powers.”
“People will think you’re a god. You can also turn water into peanut butter.”
