Base Class: Paladin
Feeding is helping. Not a single living being shall be left suffering of hunger in the surroundings.
Sharing is caring. Enjoying a meal is a ritual meant to be enjoyed as a group. Bonding, learning, planning and even mourning are made easier in the presence of delicacies and friends.
Wasting is failing. Knowing the importance of food in the lives of every existing beings, it would be disrespectful to let any possible ingredient go to waste.
Channel Divinity
When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.
Diplomatic Banquet. As an action you can use Channel Divinity to create an atmosphere of trust. You gain advantage on Persuasion and Deception checks against creatures who share or have shared a meal with you in the last hour. This effect lasts 2 minutes. Your allies can use the Help action at the cost of a bonus action on each other for the same purposes, as long as they partake in the feast.
Soup Kitchen. As a reaction you can use Channel Divinity to bring foward the generous souls around you to help an ally in need. When an ally is targeted by an attack within 30ft of you, using this Channel Divinity option lets you split evenly the damage it would take between every ally (including yourself) that is within 30ft of you.

Aura of the Provider
Starting at 7th level, you constantly emanate an inspiring aroma while you're not incapacitated. The aura extends 10ft from you in every direction, but not through total cover.
If an ally is within the aura, it gains 5 temporary hit points per turn. As of the normal rules, temporary hit points do not stack. However the creature was fed by you in the last 3 hours it gains 10 temporary hit points instead of 5.
At 18th level, the range of the aura is increased to 30ft.
Persuasive Feast
Cooking and serving a meal can serve persuasive purposes. As a ceremonial ritual, you can prepare nourishment for any amount of people, however more people means more time. By using Persuasive Feast as a ritual, every creature eating the food you provide will make a save for the spell Mass Suggestion. The casting level depends on the amount of time put into accomplishing the ritual.
- 1h - 6th level
- 5h - 7th level
- 10h - 8th level
- A day - 9th level
Cost of this ritual may vary at the DM's discretion.
Flavor Town
Starting at 20th level, and once per long rest, as an action you can call a trip to Flavor Town. By doing so, you and every willing ally in a range of 60ft, are transported in an other dimension called Flavor Town, created by your untainted love for food. In this other dimension the party may benefit from a full 1 hour short rest (and all it's effects) as well as a good home cooked meal.
