This look good so far?

[Zaleramancer]

Scimitar?

The first kind of acrobatic scimitar class that springs to mind is Dancing Dervish.

Let's see what we can do..

It's obvious you want some kind of Acrobatic Maneuvers(Run on walls, dodging), plus a bit of Unarmed Fighting(Snap kick) and maybe a few attacking options (Multi-Strike, or acrobatic charge)..

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Wow, your's are much better. As for weapons, I was thinking of using giant kitchen utensils.  Forks, knives, woks, pots, spoons.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Looks good to me.

[Zaleramancer]

Fairly good. Since it's balanced around per day usages, you will probably be able to forgo making any more complicated things..

[Philote]

Feel free to change them, you probably need to add a cost to the skills I added and change them to fit with your other abilities.

I'll try to think up more high level skills later.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Alright, so to continue.

Level Six: Exotic Spice
The ability to, once per battle, use a cloud of spice to inflict a status effect on a group of enemy's. Must restock.

Level 7: Private Stock I
The ability to, once per battle, throw food to an ally that will heal them in battle.

Level 8: Private Stock II
The ability to, once per battle, throw food to an ally that will raise one stat for the remainder of the battle.

Level 9: Zen Cutting
The Gourmand raises their dexterity stat by one for the rest of the battle once daily.

Level 10: Efficient Cooking
Allows all skills to be used twice instead of just once.

Oh, right, one thing I forgot to add. The Buff for Meal Prep 2 effects the entire party, but only lasts until the end of the next fight.

So, still okay?

[Philote]

You might want to mix in some "Once per battle" skills in between your "Once per Day" skills.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

I'll change the Private Stock skills to that, as well as the spice one.

[Philote]

Beast Knowledge: Passive ability that lets you decipher more information about beasts, even those you haven't seen before, and do more damage to them.

Elemental Cooking: Allows you to cook the leftovers of slain elementals into your other abilities.

[Zaleramancer]

You know, I could have sworn there was once some silly cartoon/anime I watched about people summoning food monsters to fight for them..

Or..Maybe I'm just delusional..

[Philote]

Fighting Foodons!

[Zaleramancer]

That.. was actually a thing and not a bizzare dream?!

...I'm going to have to watch that somehow now. I MUST.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Me too..

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Level Eleven: Beast Knowledge
Passive ability that lets you decipher more information about beasts, even those you haven't seen before, and do more damage to them.

Level Twelve: Knocking
Twice per battle, the gourmand may lower the enemy's dexterity by one level. An enemy hit twice by this move will be paralyzed.

Level Thirteen: Beast sense

Level 15: Exotic Cookbook II
The ability to cook a beast into a meal that will give anyone who eats it the beast magical skills until the next battle.

Dexterity is speed, right?

[Philote]

I liked that show

[Philote]

Oh, Beast sense Is a good one.

I don't under stand how Knocking is related though.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Well, it comes from the comic I got the idea from.

[Philote]

Ah, I see.

Beast sense should probably be moved to a lower level.
