] “The (Jooking (lasses ‘The Cooking Classes are meant to supplement your traditional class. You can be a Wizard Baker, a Bard Presenter, or a Barbarian Seasoner. There are no wrong combinations, but some Cooking Classes work better with certain traditional classes. 1 When choosing a Cooking Class, looking at mechanics and advantages is of course encouraged, but also think about how this Gooking Class affects the flavor (no pun intended) of your character. How did your character become a baker? What is their favorite dish to cook? What's their relationship with cooking? Do they love to cook for others? Do they just see food as sustenance and a way to keep their body going? Take the opportunity to have the Cooking Class influence your backstory and your roleplay! Cooking Classes are not meant to be as strong as regular classes. They are meant to be a fun addition to your characters. Look at them like mini-feats or additional background perks. You can, for example, use your Cooking Class as your character's background. Some of these Cooking Classes are designed more with the Cooking Trials in mind, while others have more abilities that can be completely divorced from the Cooking Trials, but all of them offer something to every player. There are four Cooking Glasses: The Baker, who speciliazes in sweet dishes and can summon a dessert familiar, The Seasoner, who applies all sorts of spices to their dishes and to their blades, The Presenter, who can convince any judge that a dish is better than it actually is using their mastery over words, and The Tracker, who specializes in hunting down the rarest, and most dangerous, ingredients. Owlbear Bento Le“Raker: Masters of Baking, one of the core branches of the Cooking Arts. Bakers are extremely specialized cooks, trained in handling sweet flavors. They find their way into many recipes that require the use of an oven or a sweet component. They have good synergy with all clases. SweEET TOOTH You can spend 10 minutes on a finished dish to change its taste, from Spicy or Plain to Sweet. Sucar RusH By spending 10 minutes with any Healing Potion, you can ensure that it heals the maximum number of hit points possible. For example, a standard Healing Potion will heal 10 HP (2d4+2 = 8+2). DESSERT FAMILIAR You infuse a confection with areane energy, giving it the gift of sentience. You can cast your own version of the spell “Find Familiar” regardless of your class or magical abilities. Greating a familiar takes 20gp of cooking ingredients, and takes | hour to prepare. Once the familiar is created, it acts according to the spell “Find Familiar’, although it cannot deliver spells as if it had cast it. Additionally, instead of being a fey, fiend, or celestial, a Dessert Familiar is considered a living construct. You can find a list of Dessert Familiars available to prepare in the “Dessert Familiars” section.od “Fold: Loyal Friend. Bakers make Dog Rolls for their unwavering loyalty.
