2e:Culinarian

Food is life. While a handful of more exotic races might be able to go without it and survive, for the vast majority of Prognora, a good meal is synonymous with, and essential for, continued survival. Food can lift hearts, inspire wonder, bring contentment to the restless and hope to the downtrodden. Not a civilization exists on Prognora that does not possess a rich culinary tradition. Even among such company, however, the culinarians of Saengmyeong, in the furthest East, merit particular recognition.

Trained as attaches to their kingdom's largely defensive military, they hone their skills so as to be able to provide masterful meals far from a formal kitchen - on the march, or even in the heat of battle. And while some might question the practicality of serving up gourmet dishes in between dodging attacks and fending off enemies, the grandmasters of Saengmyeong would claim that the results speak for themselves. Some that is doubly true with the magic of a maiesta backing them up. Practical or not, however, such culinary secrets were never going to stay contained for long, and the battle culinarian's arts have begun to appear in armies the world over.
