Sea (Food) Soul

Plenty of Fish

At 1st level, your tie to those specific nereids who bless or curse fishermen grant you the ability to catch two fresh sea creatures per long rest from any unit of water large enough to house the fish you desire, even if no fish were ever present before. You also have a swim speed equal to your walking speed.

 

Salty Satisfaction

When you choose this origin at 1st level, you learn the secret of magically infusing food, and especially seafood, which you spend at least 15 minutes specially preparing. All food you prepare with at least seven grains of sea salt satisfies daily food needs for those who eat it. You have advantage on Charisma rolls with anyone who has enjoyed your food in the past two hours (though they have to be aware that you were the chef).

When you specially cook seafood, you make a Medicine check against a DC of 10 to infuse it with a bonus for the creature consuming it. The bonus depends on the type of seafood, below, and stays with the creature for up to six hours.

Freshwater Fish: Advantage of short rest Hit Dice rolls to restore hit points, double advantage if the Medicine roll exceeded 20 

Saltwater Fish: Guidance, with advantage if the Medicine roll exceeded 20

Shellfish: Resistance, with advantage if the Medicine roll exceeded 20

 

If you have access to a proper kitchen, you can Take 20 on the Medicine check. If the Medicine check does fail due to unusual cooking circumstances, then consuming the seafood gives a one hour Fishy Breath condition, which gives disadvantage wherever bad breath would matter. Normally, no one can tell that the Medicine check has failed before eating. However, on a Natural 1 there is nothing to eat and everybody in the room with the cooking Smells Fishy for half an hour, attracting any fish-loving animals in the area and giving disadvantage on stench-relevant checks. Mundane remedies work on these smells.

You can make a Medicine check to specially prepare non-seafood food with seven grains of sea salt, as well. The DC is 15 and for up to six hours the consumer will enjoy advantage on rolls against poison, intoxication, and other problems where good food in the tummy could help.

Once you use this special reaction, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
