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?
Re flavoring spells seems like the easy way to go about this:
Acid arrow: marinate & tenderize!
Any fire spell: flambe!
Viscous mockery: IT’S RAW!
Mage hand: sous chef.
Or, think about it differently, like Sanji from one piece, where cooking is his thing, but he’s also a solid fighter. (That will not use knives or his hands to fight, those are for cooking)
