College of Chaos Chefs

In this particular college, bards learn how to combine magic, music and cuisine together. By adding your knowledge of magic with your knowledge of the stove and combining it with music, you are able to create a whole new palette of foods and effects.

One of the key elements of this college is the experimentation of magic and food, for this bards learn to temper in wild magic to create random but also more potent effects for their own spellcasting. This gives this art form a kind of random and interesting twist and makes these bards one of a kind spellcasters.

But don't think that these bards need the help of magic to cook, even without it they are masters at their art form. Able to create delicious foods, brews and even potions without the slightest mistakes, making even kings yearn for their cuisine.

Level 3: Chaotic Performance

Starting when you choose this college at level three, you begin to channel the chaos of the arcane through the music you play. Once per turn, you roll a [roll]1d20[/roll] immediately after you cast a spell of 1st level or higher. If you roll a 1, roll on the Wild Magic Surge table to create a magical effect. Every time you roll on the Wild Magic Surge and don't roll on the table, the likely hood of rolling on the table increases, to a maximum of 15. So if you cast a spell and do not roll a 1 on your d20, the 1 increases to 2, and so on. If the effect is a spell that normally requires concentration, it doesn’t require concentration in this case, and the spell lasts for its full duration.

Level 3: Magical Cooking

At 3rd level, whenever you take a short rest, you can use your culinary abilities to create magical food which bolsters your allies by expending one Bardic Inspiration die.

If you use Song of Rest and use one of your Bardic Inspiration die to cook a comforting meal for your allies and yourself, the dice for Song of Rest is doubled.

Additionally you gain proficiency with Cook's Utensils, Brewer's Supplies, Alchemist Supplies and Herbalism Kit and whenever you make a skill check to cook something, brew something or create a potion, you can add your Charisma Modifier to the roll instead of the normally used ability modifier.

Level 6: Magical Medical Cooking

Starting at level 6, you have honed your magical, culinary, alchemistic, herbalism and brewing knowledge enough to include medical properties as well. Whenever you take a short rest and use the Magical Cooking class feature, all who partake gain the additional effects of the spell Lesser Restoration. 

Additionally you gain Expertise with the Cooking Utensils, Brewer's Supplies, Alchemist Supplies and Herbalism Kit, and any time requirement for creating items through these tools is halved.

Level 14: Wild Magical Cooking

Starting at 14th level, your tempering of food, drinks and potions with magic has improved significantly whenever you use the Magical Cooking feature, you add to your Magical Cooking two random effects of the wild magic surge table to the food you made. You can prepare with this a certain portion of Wild Magical and a certain portion without Wild Magical Cooking for the party depending what each party member wants to eat.

For creatures that ate the Wild Magical Cooking you roll the wild magic table twice after consuming the prepared food, you roll for all creatures together not one by one. You are not allowed to look at the wild magic table and the DM decides how the effect applies to you and when.

 

Guidelines/Ideas for DMs:

Let effects like fireball centered on yourself or you cast magic missile or other effects like this happen as soon as they use their spellcasting instead of directly after consumption. For non spellcasters using a magical item or standing next to someone casting a spell or getting hit/affected by magic can trigger the effect.

Let effects that buff them take effect as soon as they use their spellcasting during battle or for non spell caster using a magical item or standing next to someone casting a spell or getting hit/affected by magic can trigger the effect.

Let effects that don't give you any time constraints or neither buff nor directly harm your player happen during spellcasting or directly after consumption or during social interactions or similar.

 

Additionally, whenever you use your song of rest (including with your Magical Cooking) during a short rest you can add your {{modifier:cha}} charisma modifier for the healing. As well everything you craft with the Cooking Utensils, Brewer's Supplies, Alchemist Supplies and Herbalism Kit has its price reduced for crafting by half and the time to craft is reduced to 1/4 of the normal crafting time.
