# Baker
Blessed be the baker, He who feeds the Masses, Kneader of the Grain, feeder of the blessed yeast.
You were born a Baker, Raised as a Baker and expected to die as a Baker, one of the Common folk. Somehow you have felt the call to Adventure (or maybe it was the drag to Adventure) and you have ended up among a band of strangers and weirdos. Maybe you need the dough, maybe you've been Cursed, maybe your the only hope for your people, regardless you are on the Path now and your life has changed.
**Skill Proficiencies:** You have learned in your time in the bakeries and around ovens to be aware of the little things, gentle with your hands when needed and how to put on a show for those kids that hang around in the morning while the town is waking. You gain proficiency in Sleight of Hand, Perception and Performance.
**Tool Proficiencies:** Although you are specialized in making Baked goods you can cook and make use of the tools of a General Line Cook. You have proficiency with the Cooks Utensils.
**Languages:** Growing up around the common people, amid the common masses you had limited exposure to many languages, limiting you to only a few Languages. You learn Common and one other "Common" language from among your village.
**Equipment:** You have access to one set of Work Clothes, one set of Regular Clothes, a set of Cooks Utensils, a Dagger/Knife and a belt pouch with 5 GP
### Bakery Renown
Bakeries are common but the reputation of some bakeries varies, some feed Kings, others feed the masses. Some serve the Nobility, others live in slums and only make enough to survive.

### Feature: Restful Bellies, Smells of Nostalgia
With Time and supplies you can make any baked good, giving or feeding someone a fresh Baked good made in this way will help reduce weariness and soothe the body. Anyone who eats one of your Freshly baked goods can either, ignore the effects of a level of Exhaustion for 8 hours (Note this does NOT remove the level, just allow you to act normally with it, if you do not deal with it normally after it will/could increase as per normal) or allow someone to reduce the time required for a Rest by Half (minimum 30 minutes for a Short Rest, or 4 hours for a Long rest.) Eating the Baked good fills one with a feeling of Nostalgia and better times, granting one respite from weariness for a short period. Note you yourself cannot rest while preparing these goods and require an Oven of some type to make them properly.
### Suggested Characteristics
Bakers seem like simple folk with little or no goals beyond a quiet and normal life, however some are filled with dreams and hopes that touch on many things in the world, maybe they hope that they will inspire the world with the simple taste of Bread. Maybe they want to create a new taste and spread it across the world, granting them fame and fortune for the simple things. Maybe they don't care about those things and just want to wander the world and experiment with new tastes and flavors, new goods and types.

| 1 | I always try to follow the recipe, step by step, part by part. Eventually it will all work together.|
| 2 | I like to experiment, it's always nice to change the recipe, swap around the ingredients and see what happens when you do.|
| 3 | I'm always trying everything as I go, seeing what works, tasting the world and testing the textures that people enjoy.|
| 4 | I always inflict my most strange and bizairre concoctions on my friends, I like to see what doesn't go together so I can understand what does go together.|
| 5 | *Sighs* Why am I even here, who are these people... How did I get here! This is all so weird and overwhelming.|
| 6 | I wonder what Goblin bread tastes like, I always heard Elves were master bakers, Dwarven bread is supposed to be hard and bland, but filling. Hmm.... Ow!? What was that!|

| 1 | Tradition. You follow the ways of your Teachers, as they did before you and their's did before them. Experimentation is fine, but when feeding the people Tradition is key.|
| 2 | Hope. Feeding people when they need it might not seem like much, but often it's enough to help people out when they need it the most. You can't help but give freebies or "Off" loaves away to those that desperately need them.|
| 3 | Perfection. You love it when bread raises perfectly, when you produce the perfect crust, the slices of bread are neat and symetrical. There's just something to be said about making something so simple and perfect.|
| 4 | Fame. You want your name spread across the world, as far as it could possibly go, ringing from the Heavens themselves if possible, Everyone will know you for your works. Everyone will know what your legacy Is.|

| 4 | I don't Like Leaving my safe area, my Workshop, my Bakery. It's so strange to be out in the world, I could never do this alone, I would never want to do this alone.|
| 5 | Knead, Bake, Roll, Slice, Knead, Bake, Roll, Slice. Hmm? Wait, who are you? Where am I? Last I remember I was Baking my Signiture Loaf!|
| 6 | I'm always the First one up and can't help but play with things, I'm so used to using my hands in the morning.|

| 8 | *Yawns* I'm always Tired, even if I rest properly, I just... Sleep doesn't come natural too me, I can't rest properly.|
#### Variant Baker: Divine Baker
Among bakers far and wide are tales of those that are blessed with hands blessed by the divine, capable of feeding the masses alone, bringing life to the dead and curing wounds long held. Granted that alot of this is old wives tales and myths mixing with drunken tales, but there are some who can bake truly Divine goods that effect those that eat them in ways almost unnatural.
**Variant Feature: Godloaf**
Those amongst the Divine order of Bakers can craft a truly wonderous series of goods, Crumpets touched by Gods, Scones blessed by Devas, Divine breads and Godly goods to improve the live of those that eat them, bless them with good health, luck and wealth. But do not abuse them, do not misuse the gifts granted to you from them, all it takes is one bad Grain.Once per long Rest you can Craft a Divine Loaf of Bread that can be gifted to someone to bless them for the day. Anyone Gifted in such a way that eats the loaf will have advantage on all rolls for the next 8 hours. Anyone who Steals the loaf and eats it will suffer from disadvantage on all rolls for the day. It costs 50-250 gold in supplies and takes atleast 4 hours to bake a Godloaf.
