With the rise in popularity of Anime like "Delicious in Dungeon" and "Campfire Cooking in Another World", I wouldn't be surprised if people are honestly giving a "cooking bard" character a shot. I'm intrigued myself, but am curious if the RaW for this bard college works in practice. Is anyone out there playing one of these?

One of my friends has come up with rules for food and cooking, inspired directly by Delicious in Dungeon. It works really well. Food is directly linked to hit dice. You need to eat to maintain your HD, and you spend HD when healing wounds (even magically) and to exert yourself for bonus actions and such. Hunting, gathering, and cooking are all skill checks that determine how good the food is and how nourishing it is. We played a few test sessions killing monsters and harvesting food from them. Soon we will be playing a large campaign using these rules, and we're all looking forward to it.

This is incredible! Thank you for sharing these great ideas.
