ButterFood

A hand-sized block of pale gold butter wrapped in waxed cloth, the surface printed with the farmhouse's maker-stamp in low relief. Soft at the corners, firm at the middle, carrying the clean smell of cultured cream.

Item

Butter is the foundation of decadence and alchemy. Whether used to baste meat, bind potions, or grease a hatch, its texture and taste are both beloved and powerful.

It’s also been used to escape handcuffs. Just saying.

Fresh milk churned in ancient barrels or synthetically replicated via protein printers. A base component in countless dishes, like Lobster Soup.

Lore

“Give me butter, and I’ll show you a hundred spells more potent than war.”

  • Chef Arvala, Battle-Baker of Embercrest

Butter is love, leverage and surprisingly flammable.

Chronicle

Lore

Churned at dawn in kitchens where the first person up is the one who draws the butter duty, and the last person to bed is the one who scolds them about it. A block keeps a week in a cellar, a day in a pack, and roughly an hour on the counter in summer. Cooks use it for richness; apothecaries for carrier fat; the old hedge-circle for oiling whatever they do not want seen turning.
