THE CANDY HOUSE. This two story house is made entirely out of
candies and desserts. The walls and roof being principally made of
gingerbread with sugar icing as cement. Embellishments are many and
include peppermint sticks and gumdrops. Windows are plentiful and
made of spun sugar, being translucent but not transparent. The back
of the house directly touches the cliff face that makes up the edge
of The Grounds.
The
house is edible, but it is also magical. It regenerates roughly as
quickly as it is eaten. Anyone who consumes any part of the house
must save vs spells or lose 1 point of wisdom per meal. These are
recovered at the rate of 1 per day. Ordinary animals, including
insects and vermin of all kinds, will refuse to eat the stuff. The
walls, floors, and ceilings can be broken if sufficient violence is
applied (DM's decision) and entry made into the house or between
rooms that way, though the broken parts regenerate as described above
within a round.
The
candy house holds an evil witch known as the Candy Crone and her
servants, the sugar goblins. The witch favors the flesh of human
children, which is in short supply in The Grounds, so she makes do
mostly with captured gangster halflings and tree gnomes.
