“Food for all”[edit]
“While slashes, arrows and fireballs fly. You can smell the scent of meat that prevails with that of blood and burning, everyone stops to smell the aroma, to then find a being sitting, holding a pan, while cooking a steak, all united in a circle around him I wait hypnotized for the end of the preparation... and WALA! A ready meal that recovers the companions, but does not make the enemies feel so good..."
The Battle Chef[edit]
Since the dawn of time the cook is a very important but extremely underrated figure, not this time. A support class, to be precise, a healer, who prepares quick and/or complex meals, to heal/support companions and create poisoned meals for enemies. These dishes can be created by using elements of any type, starting from animal meat, mushrooms, aromatic herbs, etc.... Of course, it is not thought that a cook is useful in battle, but your presence and the smell, of the liquorices you carry with you, will make everything easier and tastier, your urine is not important, you just need to know how to cook well.
Battle Chef Creation[edit]
To create a Battle Chef you have to think of someone who loves food more than anything else in the world, the rest is not important. You can be a simple cook who has decided to travel and discover the world, or an assassin who loves to kill with food, in itself you can have fun imagining any event. The possible backgrounds are varied, such as the obvious cook, the hermit, foreigner, sailor, etc ... For the style of play it is recommended to stay on the back lines, try to never stand in front of the enemy and above all use your imagination to defend yourself, also because, for 3/4 of the time you are cooking.

Class Feature[edit]
The class includes a basic set of pots and pans, or whatever cooking utensils you prefer. Compare this to an "arcane focus" (e.g. a wizard or sorcerer), without it or any cooking utensils (even just passing off a table as a cutting board), you won't be able to use your skills.

Like any chef, you'll have your own "Cookbook", where you can write down recipes with any ingredients you choose.
Attentive student[edit]
You'll have an advantage on Perception rolls, to recognize weak spots and possible cooking methods, along with details on what can be eaten against the creatures. You'll also have an advantage on Survival rolls to handle them; below is a list of the various ingredients.

Charme of cooking[edit]
At level 2 you will start cooking so good. During the turns of cooking you can use an action to no longer be enchanted. Anyone within 3 m of the player must roll wisdom to not be enchanted for 3 turns, for companions it will always be 1 turn. At level 6 th level the area expands to 4.5 m and 5 turns, at 10 th it becomes 6m and 6 turns and at 16 th the enchanted enemies if they fail the wisdom roll are disarmed.

Extra attack[edit]
at 4th-8th-12th and 16th you receive the extra attack, with the cook it doesn't only mean that you can hit more times, but also prepare more stuff, in fact you can also pre-calibrate the dishes.
Cooking Schools[edit]
Depending on the school chosen, you can decide the style of play, you can choose between the schools: The Grill, Vegan, Primitive and Magicucina.
Grill School[edit]
“I call you the wizard of the grill and the big flames…”.
The school of the grill allows for a playstyle focused on damage and health recovery, skills or upgrades will be based on meat and fire damage.

Burning embers[edit]
as a bonus action, at level 3, at the end of the “cooking” action you can throw the burning ember in front of you, anyone within 10 feet of you in a cone, in front of you (or any direction you prefer) will have to make a constitution roll to avoid taking the full 2d6 fire damage, after this action in the cone from the chosen direction for 2 turns anyone who steps on it will take 2d4 fire damage. At level 8 the damage will go 3d8, the turns will go to 4 and the damage zone will go to 2d6, at level 13 the damage will go a 3d10, the turns will go to 6, the damage zone will go to 2d8 and the zone becomes a circle 5m in diameter.
