Homebrew Sentient Slice of Bread Species Details
Lesson one: never insult a wizard. After realizing he had a gluten intolerance, the great wizard, Wands McGee, became so enraged at his sandwich that he cursed the entire loaf of bread to live out its days, literally cursing it to life. With no home, friends or family, these slices of bread were doomed to shame-filled, loathsome existences. With no arms or legs, they can fly or be forced to flop their way around if attempting to be stealthy. Being a bread has its challenges: no eyes, ears or mouth and everything tries to eat you. Due to the limited amount of slices in the loaf, these creatures are exceptionally rare, legendary even, but they view their uniqueness as weakness.
