Incendiary Muffins

''"The luckiest beings that eat the Countess' muffins die instantly." - Warlord Will scolding a novice soldier who unwittingly tried to eat an incendiary muffin.''

The incendiary muffin is one of the many deadly confections created by the Countess Carly of Croissants. It has been long speculated that a mix of fire magic during the baking of these muffins gives them their explosive properties, although fire magi are quick to point out that none of their ranks has ever been able to cause a muffin to explode. The exact origins may be linked to her training under the famous KK chef, Mazzer Q. Razzer.

The muffins are tossed into a battle and exist in two known varieties. The impact variety explodes on impact with a surface, whereas the more common "edible" variety only ignite when bitten into. The knights of the Killer Kingdom know that any baked treats found on the battlefield are most likely those cooked up by the Countess, but enemies are often caught off-guard, and craving delicious sustenance, will immediately eat any muffins found, causing them to explode in their mouths, almost surely killing them. The infamy of her muffins, and the strange way they exude an essence that almost forces enemy soldiers to be compelled to eat them has led enemies to remark that the Countess literally "feeds them to death."

The Countess bakes non-incendiary "virgin" versions of this muffin in the Kingdom bakery, and it is a popular treat among citizens.
