Kamina's Food Cart

Impossible Cart of Harkin

Where heroes eat for breakfast, dinner, and midnight snacks. You fight evil and we fight the munchies.
— Kamina
  The sound of a braying donkey floats through the small town of Harkin, stopping children and merchants in their steps. In a place surrounded by Traveler's Grass, few venture out without the aid of Dinosaurs, even fewer still dare to travel with something as small as a donkey.   Pockets and coin pouches are emptied as the villagers head towards the gate, hoping to catch a glimpse of the traveler and his donkey that they all have come to know well over the past months. The aroma of warm bread and cooked meats waft towards them as the crowd grows, marking the arrival of Kamina and his trusted companion Heehaw.   No one knows where this man came from. He appeared one day with a group of Adventurers out of the thick grass, the noise of his cart and donkey being heard above the din of the town. The thick smells of his savory foods blanketed the town, and when Lord Nizz paid the stranger for a pastry, the town flocked to the cart, filling their bellies and emptying their pockets until nothing remained of Kamina's stock.  

The Impossible Cart

In the months that Kamina and Heehaw have established their sales in Harkin, stories and rumors have been passed around of the impossible nature of traveling through the Great Plains with such fragile transport. Many have plied the man for his secrets, questioning what magic or wards allowed him to travel through the land of Dinosaurs and Goblins with nary a scratch on either him or his cart.   Kamina refuses to share his secrets but often says that his travels are all up to luck and a small bit of technique, a line he often utters while his fingers grip the grappling hook at his belt. Other Adventurers and caravans that have traveled with him have tried to quell the rumors by noting that he does nothing unusual during their travels, but the rumors still remain of Kamina and his impossible cart.

Weapons & Armament

Kamina carries little in the way of weapons to protect his wares or his cart, but he is known to be extremely proficient in the use of grappling hooks and odd measures to deal with enemies. In past altercations, he was seen riding Heehaw toward enemies at break-neck speeds while throwing flaming tarts and other pastries at those that dared attack him.

"...throwing flaming tarts and other pastries at those that dared attack him."   This is the best mental image ever! Kamina has won such a special place in my heart for this. This vehicle has definitely brought my joy.

Heehaw is the best name for a donkey, and I love he was named by a fairy.   Such a light-hearted and humorous article. Great job! :)
