When you've been adventuring for as long as I have, you get pretty good at what you do. I'm handy with a sword, I can start a fire near anywhere rain or shine, and I can butcher almost any creature if it has a corporeal body. Most importantly I know how to improvise, a skill … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Fighter’s Special Chili

Dungeon Cookbook: Cockatrice Egg Omelette
Oh, the cockatrice. A hybrid between a snake and a chicken with the temperament of an angry goose. Domestic specimens rarely get larger than a turkey, but some wild cockatrice can grow up to 5 feet tall. Like geese, they have beaks with teeth - teeth that can cut through steel - and a preternatural … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Cockatrice Egg Omelette
Dungeon Cookbook: Fondue, Charcuterie & Cocktails
You may be confused at the thought of having fondue and a charcuterie board in the depths of a twisting dungeon filled with deadly traps and monsters. Who has the time and supplies for that? Why bother when something could jump out and interrupt your meal with fangs and claws and acid spray? My answer … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Fondue, Charcuterie & Cocktails
Blog Update: Death Of A PC & Setting Up Shop
Howdy readers! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted, but for good reason: I’m currently working with a group of trans and gender non-conforming folks in my area to open up a cafe and community space! It’s called Cafe Euphoria, and you can find more info here: https://www.cafeeuphoria.org/. We are accepting donations through a … Continue reading Blog Update: Death Of A PC & Setting Up Shop
Dungeon Cookbook: Pantry Killer Stew
I picked up this recipe - if you can call it that - from a seasoned mercenary up north, who was working part-time as a cook to save up for some armor repairs. He was an interesting fellow: rail thin human with hair like the smoke from his clove cigarettes. He used to work in … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Pantry Killer Stew
Dungeon Cookbook Special: Fortle Carrot Giardiniera & Jockey Sandwich
This recipe is a shoutout to Sam Mameli, the artist behind Better Legends and a member of the Indoor Playground. In honor of his ongoing Fortle quest, I decided to whip up this recipe.

Dungeon Cookbook: Am-Bush Salad with Quick-Pickled Beets
Sometimes you find yourself underground for days at a time, maybe even weeks (or months if you get lost), eating nothing but your stale rations and whatever rancid carrion you can pick off of monsters. So when I find myself breaching the surface after that kind of wretched experience, the first thing I'm going to … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Am-Bush Salad with Quick-Pickled Beets
Dungeon Cookbook: Haunted Donuts & Dead Man’s Gold
These glorious fried dough rings come from a halfling woman I worked with many years ago - an astounding cook with a killer sweet tooth. She's a chef fit to rival the greatest of the realm, and she knows it. This recipe requires some specialized equipment that the average merc might not have in the … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Haunted Donuts & Dead Man’s Gold
Dungeon Cookbook: Flame Trap Kebabs
The party keeps telling me to write these recipes down so they can have this food whenever they want. Joke's on them, none of them can read Orcish. This is what I get for adventuring with a group of baby-faced mercs; not one of 'em knows how to cook, and they can barely work together. … Continue reading Dungeon Cookbook: Flame Trap Kebabs
