Master Chef

(This is a replacement of the legacy Chef feat. Master Chef is the same at first level, but designed to scale with your character.)

Time spent mastering the culinary arts has paid off. This could be cooking with Grandma while growing up, spending time sampling the foods of your region, or perhaps a background in the kitchen of a public house. You are granted the following benefits:

• Increase your Constitution or Wisdom score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
• You gain proficiency with cook’s utensils if you don’t already have it.
• As part of a short rest, you can cook special food, provided you have ingredients and cook’s utensils on hand. You can prepare enough of this food for a number of creatures equal to 4 + your proficiency bonus. At the end of the short rest, any creature who eats the food and spends one or more Hit Dice to regain hit points regains an extra 1d8 hit points for each hit die spent.
• With one hour of work or when you finish a long rest, you can cook a number of treats equal to your proficiency bonus. These special treats last 8 hours after being made. A creature can use a bonus action to eat one of those treats to gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus plus d4 for each of your levels.

Spells

You gain access to these spells regardless of your class:

• Create Food and Water
• Heroes' Feast
