Here's a sneak peek at the campaign:
Game night is about more than just pizza and dice-rolling, much like the game is about more than slaying monsters and stealing their stuff!
​
Have you ever wondered what a cave troll tastes like?
How do you cook one?
What happens when you eat it?
​
Flavor Text Adventures is here to answer all those questions, and more, for both you and your fantasy RPG character. Each chapter is a resource for both DM’s and players featuring:
​
*An exciting journal entry of Alton Green's (That's ME!), the most handsome and famous halfling chef-adventurer in the history of the world! Read the riveting (and often hilarious) tale of my encounter with that monster!
​
*Easy to follow, real-life Monster-themed delicious recipes with detailed photo instructions, for you to cook for your family or gaming group! I also include more commonly found substitutes, in case there's a shortage of Unicorn meat at your local butcher's shop.
​
*TTRPG compatible game content, taking each story and recipe and bringing them right into the game with you! How difficult is it to cook a Shambling Mound? Are there any interesting side effects? Also included are the occasional magic item, npc, map, or even a whole new monster.
The digital version of the book will be available in your choice of 5e, Black Flag RPG, and PF2 !
We're pretty damn proud of this one, so it's getting its own section!
We wanted a cover that would appeal to new and veteran gamers alike, and also tell you at a glance everything you need to know about Flavor Text Adventures. We're pretty sure we nailed it! Well, not us... the artists.
This beautiful (and hilarious) cover is a collaboration between fantasy art legend Larry Elmore and Flavor Text Adventures veteran Joby Dorr.
Larry Elmore did the pencils and inks, and Joby Dorr added some easter eggs and did the coloring. If you're a veteran gamer, that dragon should be familiar.
We like it so much, that we're planning on putting the full drawing on the inside end-pages of the book.
For this campaign (Volume 1) we're keeping things simple. We'd rather focus on giving you more great content than bells and whistles!
EARLY BIRDS? WE LOVE YOU! All early backers (First 48 Hours) will receive a coupon for a free Flavor Text Adventures PDF chapter from our online store!
Additionally, early backers of the physical book will receive a free Alton Green coaster!

"Cave Troll"
Chef Alton Green presents: How to Cook
Monsters
for the Dinner and Gaming Table
Welcome to Flavor Text Adventures!
Adventure comes in all shapes, sizes, and of course... flavors!
Who am I? I'm the one and only, the exquisite, illustrious, daring, and let's not forget fabulous, Chef Alton Green.
At your service.
I've spent my distinguished career as a professional chef both not just in the kitchen, but the dungeon as well. And I'm here to tell you that all (well, most) of those monsters us adventurers slay on a daily basis are actually rather delicious!
Flavor Text Adventures are my memoirs, from years of adventuring and cooking. Join me as I share with you exciting tales of daring-do, and delectable recipes for your dinner and gaming tables.
Every chapter of Flavor Text Adventures contains:
*A short story of my encounter with a deadly monster, and how I and my friends bravely (or accidentally) defeated it.
*D&D 5e compatible gaming content, taking the story and recipe and bringing them right into the game with you! Want to know what eating a cave troll or a murder hornet will do to your party? Read on...
*A real-life monster-themed delicious recipe with detailed photo instructions, for you to cook for your gaming group!
D&D 5e Game Content
Alton Green isn't just a chef, he's also a storyteller, and he wants you to be one too!
Every chapter has D&D 5e compatible rules section that includes inspiration for DM's wanting to turn Alton's story into more fleshed out scenarios, as well as a variety of delightful "vittles" such as...
*How to cook the monster-of-the-month in-game, as well as the effects of eating it.
*Magic items, npc's, and new monsters from Alton's story
*Maps and other cool art, drawn by Alton himself in his journal
Unique Recipes
What better way to make your game more immersive than actually eating the monsters your party vanquishes?
Every chapter features a delicious, professionally designed, monster-themed recipe.
​
Step-by-step photo instructions make the cooking a breeze, though some recipes, such as the Chimeracle, are not for faint of heart!
You can fight your monster, and eat it too!
