One if my players wants to make a character that’s all about beig a master chef. I was wondering if anyone has suggestions on how to do that. He found a custom cook class online, but it’s very convoluted and not beginner (which we all are) friendly. Now we’re thinking how we could just take a normal magical class and (quite literally) flavor its abilities (having verbal components food-related maybe replace certain material components with, like, truffles and caviar or whatever).
I’d also be open to give him one or two fitting special abilities that could be useful under certain conditions, as long as it’s still balanced, or use feets or something. Does anybody have ideas and suggestions?
Mhm 5e and other derivates have a Cook Background. So why not use it?
Sure it’s more leaning into the roleplaying aspect but would you really think it’s believable that someone is attacking or defending someone with perfectly fried chicken?
A martial arts cook is a force to be recon with as many Action Movies featuring Steven Segal have shown us.
