FIGGY PUDDING OF FIRMNESS
One of Brigid's earliest creations celebrating Christmas dates back to 983AD when she decided she was going to bring something special for her seventh year attending the Christmas celebration in the village of Wogsford. She concocted a dish made with mead, various mashed fruits, stewed plums, and exotic spices. The dish was such a hit that it was soon copied throughout the land, becoming a Christmas staple and eventually evolving into what we think of as figgy pudding today.
As Brigid's culinary creation spread, across the British Isles, and eventually the British Empire and beyond, she continued to improve her own recipe with a mixture of her own creativity and judicious borrowing from human improvements to the dish. Her most current iteration is even magical.
Functions: In addition to being the tastiest figgy pudding the characters have ever tasted, those who eat a portion of it gain +2 to Fortitude saving throws and +2 to Wisdom saving throws. The benefit lasts until the next sunset or sunrise, depending on whether the characters were eating figgy pudding during the day or evening.
Each of Brigid's figgy puddings contain four portions. A character must eat the entire portion to gain the benefits.
If a figgy pudding of firmness is not eaten by January 13, it does not grant saving throw bonuses. It remains extremely tasty, however, and doesn't start to spoil until December 1 on the year following its making.
