Bring your players into a world of pure imagination … and oozes. Lots of oozes. This candy shop’s built on top of a sprawling laboratory — are the resident chef’s secrets known, or is he producing illicit formulas?
Thoughts
Someone has to kick the cauldrons over. That’s why I filled them with taffy. Or liquid.
Three ladders & the courtyard provide an interesting means by which to launch an assault on the interior.
Why would you assault the interior? Because a black pudding in a lever-operated samurai armor suit is guarding the door, obviously.
Optional secret entrances/exits are attached to the laboratory, so you can use it as a standalone dungeon chamber!
My apologies to the historically literate.
Contents
Sweets Shop: A brightly-colored shop spilling over with every kind of sweet delight displayed on fine china. I hope nobody lets a bull inside.
Abandoned Shop: For alchemists working in disguise & for slightly less gonzo games, this optional upstairs floor has a wrecked interior! Fight a staircase guardian on uneven ground!
Monochrome Labs: Three color variants (red, green, white) that focus the entire lab around a specific substance. Blood? Ichor? Worse things?
Glowing Pool: It’s full of evil. I was told by a friend that this variant “reminded [him] of rats.”
The Pit: For crueler villains or a rescue challenge — a cage dangling over a deep pit! How cruel & unusual. Maybe the cage is empty & it’s just an entrance point to a larger mystery.
Autumn: Winter is coming. The groundskeepers can’t keep up with the falling leaves!
Winter: Winter is here!
Spring: Oops, it’s over already. Bright cherry blossoms & an excess of plants decorate the streets.
Canopy Overlays: Built for VTT canopy usage!
Day/Night Variants: Wherever applicable!
Dimensions
