You enter what can be best described as a jumbled and hectic mess.The galley is the domain of Ambrose “Fishguts” Kroop, the drunken ship’s cook. The cramped and chaotic kitchen holds two wooden worktables, several wooden cupboards, and two small stoves against the port wall, as well as virtually every cooking utensil imaginable and a frightening array of meat cleavers. A score of chickens and three goats wander freely throughout the chamber; the goats are meant to be caged, but have a distressing tendency to escape their bonds. The kitchen is a madness of dirt, food, and knives, and finding anything in here requires a Perception check. The stoves are perpetually lit, and large cauldrons bubble away atop them all times. A huge array of spices mingle with barrels of rainwater, two tuns of rum, cupboards full of ship’s biscuit and salted beef, barrels of sauerkraut, and a small supply of fresh vegetables picked up in Port Peril. Despite the chaos, the entire galley functions as a set of masterwork tools for Profession (cook) checks.[sblock=DC 10 Perception]Several items of value are lost among the ruin and squalor of the galley. OOC: Discovering any given random item takes a move action and a DC 10 perception check.After spending several minutes taking in the entirety of the mess, you note the following: a masterwork dagger being used as a butcher’s knife, a pair of handaxes used as meat cleavers, 11 knives, a short sword, a loaded hand crossbow, a vial of holy water, smelling salts, a bullseye lantern, 8 pints of oil, a good lock hanging unused off a pantry cupboard, 2 pounds of soap, four waterskins, three flasks, two tindertwigs, a sunrod, 50' silk rope, a crowbar, three whetstones, a barrel of poor wine, six bottles of good Chelish brandy, three bottles of magnificent rum, a large cookbook (using the tome while cooking grants a +1 circumstance bonus on Profession [cook] checks), a prosthetic leg made of wood and edged with a silver band, a silver ring, a gold necklace, 12 sp fallen behind a cupboard, and various amounts of food, spices, grains, and herb trade goods (cinnamon, flour, ginger, garlic, pepper, saffron, cloves, salt, tobacco, and wheat). In addition, a trio of harpoons (one masterwork), a spear, and Kroop’s steadfast grapple hang on the walls.[/sblock]It only takes you a moment to spot Fishguts, who is taking a nap on a stool in the corner of the galley, a bottle of some sort of alcohol  clutched loosely in his grip and propped on his belly.[sblock=Ambrose "Fishguts" Kroop]<img src="http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/images/759763/Ambrose_Kroop.JPG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock]</blockquote>
