Hi, I need help.
I would like to use the failed prophet creature as a chocolate failed prophet.
During the ritual, he would have been deceived because the gold coins used were made of chocolate.
I would therefore like to modify failed prophet to include the fact that it is made of chocolate.
In the same way, his servants would be related to chocolate:
- Effigy wax
- Tallow guardian
- Tar ooze
- Tar zombie
His goal would be to take revenge on the charlatan, a counterfeiter who used chocolate gold coins.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Some ideas that come to mind just by taking a quick glance at the statblock,
-Perhaps change its Wealthsense to something more like Foodsense, so it is attracted to large amounts of food. Functionally it'd work very similar, save maybe it is attracted to literal consumables instead of wealth equal to a consumable of its level.
-Consider swapping out its weakness to spirit for weakness to fire, or adding in a fire weakness as well. You could also look at some monsters who gain benefits when they are hit with fire damage, though their names are escaping me at the moment.
-You could make its mindscape cause Sickened instead of Stunned, though that's something of a downgrade. I think a slight reshuffling of traits could make it evoke a feeling of being surrounded by or eating delicious chocolate pretty well. Heck you might be able to do that with flavoring alone, pun intended.
-I think the spell list would be the best place to get that flavor in. Swap out some of the mind-affecting spells for ones like Web to suggest the characters being stuck in chocolate, or maybe Horde of Underlings from Draconic Codex to represent summoning weak chocolate soldiers to attack them. I'm sure others can think of good ones too. Basically anything that coats the party in something or covers them in goop would be great.
-Make Greedy Grab steal actual consumables from the party as opposed to wealth.
