So, I've written up the stats of the main antagonist for a 1st-level Winter Solstice/Yule-themed adventure. I could use a little help with his personality. I'm thinking it will take place in Sandpoint, probably at the Rusty Dragon or the Pixie's Kitten...

From a table filled with holiday food—sausages, pies, ham, tarts, roast fowl, and golden cakes bejeweled with candied fruit—an ominous voice calls out a warning.

One problem with your stat block: It mistaken put forth the idea that fruitcake is delicious. It clearly meant to use a UMA that is a taste equivalent of Stench (Ex).

But seriously, great monster.
