Burntmeat


 * This article is about the non-player character. For the item, see Burnt meat.





Burntmeat is a troll featured in the quests Eadgar's Ruse and My Arm's Big Adventure. He the chief chef of the Troll Stronghold, and can be found in the Troll Stronghold kitchen. He is sometimes criticised by other trolls for only being able to cook burnt meat.

Most trolls are named after the first thing they eat, but Burntmeat was named after the first thing he tried to cook. Burntmeat enjoys cooking as well as eating humans and goutweed.

Burntmeat has answered letters in at least two editions of Postbag from the Hedge. These are Postbag 13 and Postbag 25

In My Arm's Big Adventure, Burntmeat promises that he will never cook a human again after the cooked adventurer. In Postbag from the Hedge 13, he says (in his own way): "Since me and My Arm got our own vegetable patch we've had trouble growing enough goutweed to keep up with demand.  We thought that we could get some humans to bring us it and then eat them." Burntmeat actually keeps his promise by only eating uncooked humans, which need extra goutweed for better flavour.
