Chef is a feat that I love from the role playing aspect. How often has a character acted as the grandmother of the group, making each “we take a short rest” or “we take a long rest” delightful with descriptions of mothering over the party, cooking, and old family recipe, and possibly stopping mid-recipe to …
The first feat on the handful of interesting, intriguing, and excellent options brought to us from Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, Artificer Initiate is an interesting situational feat for 5th edition D&D that brings some very varied opinions to the table.
