The other adventurers in our dungeon party were a bunch of food snobs who never went for it. You'd think that people who kill monsters in holes in the ground wouldn't be so picky.<br /><br />In an old Dragon magazine article about visiting Hell and surviving it, they talked about finding food in Hell. They said that some insane people have claimed to have eaten the flesh of devils. They said that it not known whether eating devils makes you insane, they ate devils because they were insane, or they only said that they had eaten devils because they are insane.Scott Haleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08578040781539652523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958522416503442248.post-357168132912864692021-07-22T13:38:15.023-06:002021-07-22T13:38:15.023-06:00Cool beans!

But all I remember about that blog is that I was embarrassed to have the title banner on my screen for some reason. Death conditions and everything, but different effects. <br /><br />Also, these blogs have given me the idea that people *think* this is what happens when you eat monsters. Or maybe even it's a hoax. But an interesting draw to go dungeoneering, either way.Vinemaplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03676714464447017084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958522416503442248.post-87468027808425758072021-01-30T17:23:49.273-07:002021-01-30T17:23:49.273-07:00Just ran a hugely enjoyable banquet where the part...Just ran a hugely enjoyable banquet where the party were guests of a house of wizards who hunted exotic beasts.
