Can my characters cook?

Thranduil was a prince and a soldier long before he was a king, so he knows how to hunt, dress, and cook wild game pretty decently! He'd also know which of the Mirkwood-native plants are safe to eat.

that being said he still doesn't understand technology beyond a medieval level so uhhh........ let's just say he's not using his oven properly and his kitchen in Noctium has literally had fires set in it

Apollo learned to cook both for the health benefits and the benefits for his wallet. He doesn't tend to make anything complicated, favoring dishes that are easy to throw together or manage to both be healthy and taste good.

Naesala primarily eats meat and eats it raw, wtf is this 'cooking' nonsense

Prompto almost exclusively uses a crock pot and throws in whatever shit he thinks will taste good, which half the time no one but him can stomach. His true specialty is making a mean salad.

I'll answer for other characters on request but those are the main ones!

oh yeah special mention for Damien who is a vegetarian and cooks for himself and his son all the time; he knows the tricks for getting the most mileage out of your chickpeas and making amazing cookies with bean water

(not a joke that is a real thing)
