05-03-07, 09:04 AM Hey guys,

I think I've finally settled on a new character to play for an upcoming campaign. I'm going to play a Gnomish Wizard who is obsessed with food. He spends his time searching out the rarest and most potent culinary ingredients with which to creat the newest and most delicious dishes ever, many of which have magical effects. I'm going to take Craft: Culinary Arts with permission from my DM in addition to the standard Wizard skill selection to represent his obsession with cooking.

I need a bit of help from you all however. What feats could I take to represent this? Perhaps some item creation feats so that I can make food for the party? Any help would be apprecciated.

Also any ideas for themed spell come to mind? I've thought of a few Transmute Rock to Mud (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/transmuteRockToMud.htm) becomes Transmute Rock to Soup, Haste (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/haste.htm) becomes "Come and Get it!" and Fly (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/fly.htm) becomes The Souffle Effect.

Thanks for reading guys.

One of the books (can't remember which one) notes that there is no reason for potions to be the only item with that effect and that you could quite easily do that with just about any food item.

So, you have your standard pre-battle snack consisting of a bunch of foods that apply

bulls strength
bear's endurance
cat's grace
etc...

05-03-07, 10:06 AM Thanks! That's really helpful. That's actually exactly what I was trying to do! Now just wait until my Magic Weapon Spells turn the Fighter's sword into a Candy Cane or the Rogue's dagger to a carrot!

05-03-07, 10:28 AM Grease can obviously be a 'food' spell. Also, web could be replaced with anything sticky (honey, etc).

Some firespells can be replaced with cooking names. Instead of fireball it can be CHAR NAME's Slow Roaster or Char Griller.

Instead of glitter dust or whatever, it could be flour based.

Also, be sure you have various cooking ingredients on you at all times. Flour alone can be used for tons of things. Sprinkle it on the ground to see footprints (of invisible or intruders?).
