There’s a love triangle between Sluggoth, an elder space-slug deity with a 30’ aura of peace & love radiating from them, Captain Blaarg, an arrogant yet handsome yellow gelatinous creature, and Percival Blorp, a glowing space-skeleton with expressive eyeballs, eyebrows and buck teeth.

This competition cooking show is for the hand of the fair Sluggoth. This royal wedding, broadcasting to the galaxy, is the event of the season. You’ll have time to mingle with the participants before having to choose a side, becoming sous chefs for your champion in this joust of manners and culinary experience.

This cute room has several tiered, levitating platforms where gelatinous flowers are growing. There’s a stable of talking, sarcastic, three-headed riding birds with wings of daggers (to cut the flowers), used to reach the floating platforms. Whoever makes the best edible arrangements between three courses while using the surprise ingredient wins. Sluggoth will judge and crown the winner. The Slug Bishop, a large symbiotic slug on a human host’s head, presides over the show.
