Basic Mechanics: Provides 2 Armor Health. Item Set Effect - Chef Set: If you are currently wearing this Armor and are wearing and/or wielding (must have phys repped) at least 3 other items with the keyword Chef Set you gain the ability “Waste Not, Want Not”. (This effect continues to function even if the armor is broken or reduced to 0 armor.)

• Waste Not, Want Not: You may spend 5 minutes of Full Engagement and Active Roleplay and either 20 Mind or 1 Resolve with the corpse of a Critter creature that died less than 10 minutes ago to create the meal Critter Cutlets. This counts as using the Culinary skill for cooking at the rank you currently possess. All items, abilities, procedures, and effects that can be normally applied while using the Culinary skill to cook a meal may be applied as normal to this ability. The time required to use this ability can not be modified in any way and all items, abilities, procedures, and effects that would adjust time do not but you can still gain the remaining effects as normal to this ability.

Achievement Mechanics: Artisanal Cuisiner - While performing Full Engagement and Active Roleplay using the Culinary skill you may use up to one arm to engage in combat. Your other arm must remain roleplaying the Culinary skill. The arm that is engaging in combat may use any skill and item that it could normally use while in combat without interrupting your Culinary skill. Using both arms for combat, leaving the required roleplay area, or dropping into Bleed Out will still interrupt your Culinary skill. (This effect continues to function even if the armor is broken or reduced to 0 armor.)
