The cook is a seemingly regular cook. He is skilled in various culinary techniques and is knowledgable in his ale's. Although he seems like a fine chef, there are negatives, nasty negatives. He works in a kitchen yet works with a nasty ulcer on his knee, he frequently sells stale pies and most likely infects some of his other cooking. He may be a skilled chef, but he isn't the cleanest chef.
