Cooking

From ElanVital

Basic Facts

Skill Definition: Cooking is the time-honored ability to take raw food and make it edible. Baking is also included.

Common Uses: Everyone needs cooking; in Petakova it's done on gas, wood or boiler stoves, whereas Stocklin has sleek electric ranges, but the basic skill is relatively the same.

Rule Information

Rule Notes: Cooking may be rolled to demonstrate how good a meal is, if a benchmark is important; for casual play, however, whether to roll or not is up to the cook's discretion.
Common Modifiers: Cooking should be modified for the difficulty of the meal. Basic pasta or similar meals that require very simple techniques should probably be rolled at +2; following a recipe might be +1; inventing your own recipe completely from scratch might be -1; notoriously complex and/or delicate procedures such as preparing an unusual souffle of your own invention might be -2.
Counterskills: None relevant.
