Trap(ish) – Fool’s Feast (A to Z Challenge F)

Free for the taking.

We came upon a room in the tower, a guard’s room hastily and recently abandoned.  Food and drink scattered, mostly uneaten on the table.  It had been nearly half a day since we had eaten, so we fell upon the food.

It was a restorative and we felt much refreshed and ready to fight.  But when we next entered into combat, we were suddenly befuddled and unable to act or even think clearly.  Had our foes been more dangerous we all would have died.

The truth was it was a trap for the unwary.  There were not even any human guards in the tower!

Fool’s Feast (CR 2) XP 400

A table of food, recently made, obviously abandoned in a hurry.  Chairs around it as shifted away as the people around it suddenly left, one has even been knocked over.
