Read aloud

Say this

Kobolds in flour-dusted aprons drop their ladles and swarm across the worktables, snapping up little tools as weapons. Two of them heave steaming chocolate from the cauldron toward the doorway. The floor is slick, the doors are open, and every kobold is coming for you.

What happens

4 to 6 rounds
  1. 2

    At the end of round 2.

    A rack of cooling trays crashes down. Creatures in the Mixing tables make a Dexterity save or take bludgeoning damage.

  2. 3

The battlefield

Zones

  1. 1

    Mixing tables25 ft

    Four worktables make narrow lanes; a creature can squeeze between them, but the tables provide half cover.

  2. 2

    Cauldron hearth25 ft

    Two kobolds work a steaming cauldron on a raised stone hearth; a low rail gives half cover.

  3. 3

    Door and spill25 ft

    The double doors stand open behind the party; spilled chocolate makes the floor Difficult Terrain.

What the party can use

Tip the cooling trough: creatures in the Chocolate Spill make a DC 13 Dexterity save or fall Prone.
Kick the cauldron stand: a creature adjacent to it can use an action to tip it, ending the hot-chocolate attacks and creating a 10-foot Difficult Terrain spill.
