Bubble Bubble [reaction] (occult) Trigger Larmine rolls initiative; Effect With a wave of her hand, Larmine instantly brings her candy pot to a violent boil. The pot blows its top and targets all creatures hostile to Larmine within 20 feet of it, dealing 2d8 fire damage with a DC 16 basic Reflex save. On a critical failure, the targeted creature also takes 1d4 persistent fire damage as the hot candy sticks to their exposed skin. The spitting hot candy pot then rolls initiative. Rupture [reaction] Trigger The spitting hot candy pot Breaks; Effect The pot splits open, spilling its remaining contents in a 15-foot cone that deals 2d12 fire damage with a DC 20 Reflex save. The area covered by this reaction lingers as difficult terrain for the rest of the encounter.

Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature takes half damage.
Failure The creature takes full damage and becomes tangled in the sticky mess of hot candy, which imposes a –10-foot circumstance penalty to its Speeds until it leaves the area of the rupture’s effect. Until the creature leaves the area of effect, it also takes 1d4 persistent fire damage.
Critical Failure The creature takes double damage and is immobilized (DC 18 to Escape), after which it takes a –10-foot circumstance penalty to its Speeds and 1d4 persistent fire damage as Failure.
Routine (2 actions) On each of the pot’s actions, it targets one creature hostile against Larmine within 30 feet of the pot, spitting a glob of hot molten candy that deals 1d8+4 fire damage; the target creature must attempt a DC 16 Reflex save.
Critical Success The target is unaffected.
Success The target takes half damage.
Failure The target takes full damage and is slowed 1 as the sticky molten candy glues them to the floor.
Critical Failure The target takes double damage, is slowed 2, and takes 1d4 persistent fire damage as the hot candy sticks to their exposed skin.
