Yes thank you! This was fun. I loved all these NPCs! (and PCs!)

The new VO in San Francisco location has been running this for new players and it's been a hit. Awesome one-shot.

Here. I brought some burnt garlic from my test kitchen. It can be your new centerpiece! Leshies love interesting smells!

Chef reaches into her bag an pulls out mashed-up garlicc. She extends her arms and shoves the pungent masses into the jars where the leshies once were. She breathes deep the horrible stink and grins.

Seeing red Chef swings at Honeysuckle Red!

War Flail +1, Disarm, Sweep, Trip: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 10 + 1 = 21
Bludgeoning, Rage: 1d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 = 14 + 4 Fire

If the first attack drops red Chef will double move to provide a flank on yellow.

War Flail +1, Disarm, Sweep, Trip: 1d20 + 10 - 5 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 10 - 5 + 1 = 19
Bludgeoning, Rage: 1d10 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 = 14 + 4 Fire

If the second attack drops red Chef will double move to South of yellow.

If red I still up…

Chef tries to intimidate red!

Intimidation (T): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

You better run before you're burnt to a cinder!

Chef would move into a flank with Entropy and likely whiff against Mint Orange.

I suspect this is the last encounter… we just need some big crits!

"As a chef I mean florist I would never steal someone's recipe and say it was my own. What a terrible thing for an artist to do. You didn't create them. Darius took them and trapped them."

Chef tries to aid Jackpot.

"Some florists are just really scary, it's part of the trade. But we can be nice too! We can make you better centerpieces for sure!" She tries to demonstrate her skill using some nearby trigs.

Crafting (E) to aid Jackpot: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

"Let's be the catering crew! I'm a really good artist of smells and burning stuff, after all!"

Fine trying some subterfuge (leshy catering crew!?) or just walking in like we own the joint

Chef wants to go now, they're unhurt and why wait for the party? Her friends are in danger! However maybe it's best they wait.

Noting in particular I need to do while we rest.

Chef blushes; she almost felt bad for knocking this fool's skull in, but less so now.

Yeah! What Jackpot said! We got a party to CRASH!

Chef curls her nose at the overpowering flowery scent. Someone hurt our friends, so we're going to make trouble unless we get to the bottom of it! Werre the missing leshies jasmine-associated?

Look humans value something weird called 'body language,' You have to run up to them and make sure you're standing REAL close to their 'personal space,' and then stare them in the eyes, so they know you mean well! Watch and learn.

Popcorn isn't so sure about intimidating creatures she doesn't share a language with. So she delays hoping the wild empathy route works.

Popcorn almost shouts READY! but then remembers they're trying to be quiet. Sounds good but untrained. Do we have an Expert to follow here?

Chef is a good sport— when she gets a nice present!

Burning their toys? But toys don't smell good when burnt! It is also gratuitously cruel.

Chef growls in frustration at the very thought. Her flail lights up with fire and she smolders the seeds over it.

If this fails she will use a hero point (we have hero points right?

HA. HA. HA. Chef looks in the bag, wondering what it is.

We're chasing down the missing Shades! Summer and Willow. Have you seen them?

I wonder what carbonized jasmine smells like? Not the leshy kind of course, no!

Chef follows along, observing the prints.

Survival: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

I've chased down a few sprites in my day. They have different feet too, but it's neither here nor there as they'd never steal the Shades. Whoever took Summer and Willow will give them back, no matter who they are!

Popcorn grunts. The moral is "Don't mess with chef!"

She rips vines out her arms and windmills them around, the tendrils spiral out and wrap around the vines soon the far side. Grasping Reach, if it works? She pulls them over and ties up the bridge.

She works as quickly as she can to repair Comeback Bridge.

If this doesn't work she will swim:

Nooo! "Comeback Bridge" is gone! Who DID this!?

Chef dashes up to the vines to inspect them. As she does so she talks to the necwcomers.

I built a rope bridge bridge here myself, you know. An answer to the horrible sprites always stealing my ingredients and then taunting me from the other side of the river. They didn't laugh anymore when they saw me sprinting across my beautiful rope bridge, flail on fire, screaming for my peppercorns!

… And now it's gone. She holds up a vine. Do you see? Cleanly cut. Deliberate.

Perception (E): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10, 30' scent raging (imprecise)

She looks up and down the river, but doesn't notice anything amiss.

Chef takes the oversize pot off the coals. She doesn't clean anything else up though, the smells will become more interesting by the time she gets back to her glade.

"A glorious day for the continue to shine down upon us and watch our triumphs and successes." A leshy with a mane of golden petals around their head strides forward as they smell the air.

No. Not today. It's too quiet around here. I'm garlic-mashing and popcorn-burning because I'm SO MAD about our friends disappearing. Her war flail trails fire as it descends like a comet oon another bulb of garlic, which ends up smeared across a splintered piece of the old farmer's cart. She throws it into the pot, wood and all.

Your cat has good taste if he likes my cooking scents! Chef approves.

Maybe we can collaborate on a smell together. I've never worked with abyssal fire.

But first, we should find out why our friends are disappearing! Then after we destroy whatever the problem is, we can have a party with everyone. Except for the forest sprites. What do you think?

Chef Popcorn wears a scorched toque blanche; the glade where she does her cooking has been swept clear of all the flammable underbrush. When the local forest sprites hide her jar of peppercorns or salt shaker she tries to laugh instead of smashing everything to bits, because getting mad only eggs them on. HA. HA. HA. HA. Nevertheless, sometimes there's shouting and a racket…

Today Chef Popcorn's "kitchen" reeks of garlic. She has several pounds of cloves piled on her chef's table (a shattered old farmer's cart), and is mashing them up with her war flail before tossing them into a dangerously overfull pot of oil. Something inside pops.

Garlic popcorn! Enough garlic to kill every vampire in Ustalav! She leans over the pot and wafts the pungent smoke into her nostrils, breathing deep. Yes… hmmm… needs more… GARLIC! The flail pulverizes another three bulbs in quick succession. Into the pot they go.

Chef Popcorn, known to her friends as Chef, would never EAT the food she cooks. That would be ridiculous! It's not what a leshy would do. She loves all the amazing smells that lighting ingredients on fire can create. She is an artist of smell. And of course, every Chef is driven to share their creations with their friends. She is excited to see what they think of today's new recipe.
