The core of D&D is storytelling. You and your friends tell a story together, guiding your heroes through quests for treasure, battles with deadly foes, daring rescues, courtly intrigue, and much more. You can also explore the world of Dungeons & Dragons through any of the novels written by its fantasy authors, as well as engaging board games and immersive video games. All of these stories are part of D&D.
Loxodons tower above most other humanoids, standing over 7 feet tall. They have the heads- trunks, tusks, ears, and faces-of elephants, and hulking bipedal bodies covered by thick, leathery skin. Each of their hands has four thick digits, and their feet are the flat-bottomed, oval-shaped feet of elephants. Like that of an elephant, a loxodon’s trunk is a useful appendage. In addition to providing a keen sense of smell, the trunk can be used to lift and carry even heavy objects. The trunk can be used to carry both food and liquid to the mouth and can even act as a snorkel.

I have recently started playing Dungeons and Dragons with a few friends and it is my first time playing. I’ve chosen a Loxodon for my character although he is a smaller than average Loxodon because the game is taking us into tight spaces. I’ve worked this into my character so it’s good! To mark my introduction to the game, I’ve created this recipe which ties to my character. I had some black truffles which I received at Christmas and wanted to incorporate them into a meal and it fit so nicely with my character! I am aiming to add recipes for the other characters too in the next week!
