Does your party have a cook?

[StreamOfTheSky]

Yes.

In my current party, I have Bardic Knack, so I have three "ranks" in profession (cook), I just don't count as trained in it.

Normally, the cook is whoever has prestidigitation. If you're hungry, burnt chunks of meat will taste good.

 

[Korgoth]

In world of Greyhawk, food cooks you!

I voted yes, even though its really Craft: cook. Cooking creates something and thus is more properly a craft, not a profession.

Perhaps you're right, but that's not how it plays in the PhB. Cook is one of the examples for the Profession skill.

The AoW game I ran, the shifter druid spent CC-skills for profession cook. Liked showing up others with the skill at every opprotunity.

In the Savage Tide game I'm in, my cohort (the lovable kobold Churtle) used to be the cook for a den of thieves. Now, she's opened up the Interplanar House of Gargoyle Faced Pancakes. I wrote about it on the Paizo boards:

In the middle of the second gargoyle attack, Churtle slammed her oversized iron pot into a garg's face for critical damage. The pot now has a garg face in it. I suggested we open the International House of Gargoyle-Faced Pancakes in Farshore.

Since then, she's served up all sorts of things, including half-fiendish eyes of the deep. Well, we're in the Abyss now, and we're opening franchise branches...

In 3e, I even had the Mystic Chef prestige class!

 

[The Grumpy Celt]

In your party, does one PC have at least one rank in profession (cook)?

We've got Gordon Ramsay as a follower. Kinda mixed bag that. Good food but comes with an abusive personality.

No skills per se, but the dwarf has taken to banging his cooking pot to scare away 1st level adversaries (so far, just large rats).

 

[Ed_Laprade]

I, and several of the gamers I've played with, have had characters who could cook since 1E. That was actually easier to do back then, just write it into your character's background! I think I put a point or three into cooking with one or two of my 3E characters, but I'm not sure. (I am sure that someone had cooking as a skill in at least one campaign.)

Not sure how to vote this, so I didn't.

 

[Minigiant]

No. My current party is the pizza delivery guys for more powerful parties and dungeon bosses. We get free pizza.

I said yes, but we usually don't ever do it. We just eat things raw and on the run. Make sure you can outrun it though before you take a bite out of it, and be sure to pick the hairs out of your teeth before and diplomatic situations. Hairy teeth adds a penalty of -5 to social encounter rolls.
