- Burn the crop and starve through the winter
- Harvest, keep quiet and sell it to them don't-know-better-townsfolk
Some of the side effects of eating a meal containing living rutabagas are:
- Invisible private sphere: an invisible field surrounds the person, stretching about one meter around. Disrupting this field by walking through it or just coming to close, will cause the cursed person to (1d6):
- Panic in silence, being unable to concentrate
- Start sweating, being unable to hold on to anything
- Look the other way
- Clear their throat until they go sore and can't speak
- Wait 30 seconds, and then take one step to the side
- Start fiddling with their spell book or weapon, until they accidentally hurt themselves (by firing off a random spell or just cut their fingers)
- Every spell casting is concluded with a few words about the weather. And it's never quite the correct temperature.
- At the end of a fight, the cursed person says "We must do this again soon."
- Happily pays taxes and tithes when arriving in new towns.
- Avoids conflicts at all cost. If forced, consult table above.
Well, it's a good thing I removed rutabegas from my soup recipe!
