Silas the Fattened King

A vagabond who sought shelter from a storm in a large animal burrow and found a set of stairs leading down. In the chapel of an obscure bacchanalian cult he found the Gourmand's Cutlery and a statue that compelled him to use it. Silas was overcome. All he wants to do is eat. He compelled two Fleshy Automatons to feed him — now they create more of their kind, kidnapping people to bring back to the Fattened King.

Redolent in travesty, the bloated form of Silas fills the chamber. Too large to fit through the door — he waits for the Fleshy Automatons to feed him. The Gourmand's Cutlery looks tiny in his swollen, greasy hands.

The Tongue-Knife in the Sewage Pit

"The only thing Silas can't digest is metal." Beneath the sludge of his chamber lie d6 silver and a long, curved knife shaped like a tongue.

Tongue-shaped Knife — d6 damage. On a hit, the target becomes ravenously hungry and desperately thirsty. They must eat and drink within the hour or die. A relic of the Goddess of Fat and Plenty cult, swallowed and forgotten, waiting in his filth for the next mouth.
