Here is the second part of my commission from the wonderful pyromancy on FA

Here you see the varied positions available to the second rank of Combat cooks

The chefs have been granted the second blade of the combat cooks. The Boning Sword, It's a long thin blade with a decent reach. Like it's common cutlery relative the sword is designed to work in around joints parting flesh from the bone, But in this case most of the joints are armors so the thinner blade is needed to slip into the gaps to the meat down below

In the Middle is the Chef. Chefs serve in the legions as the knights or Samurai. Upon being granted there second sword they hone not only there fighting skills but there leadership and tactical skills. At any time a Chef could be expected to lead a force of men into battle and weather they are trained cooks or simply men at arms he is expected to do so with courage and honor. They are more versatile then there average cook of the line as well being at home in most any kitchen or campfire and will have a much wider selection of dishes to choose from.

Next to him on the left you have The Confectioner. While he's a Chef in rank he's not much of a soldier. and though granted his swords he tends not to use them. The confectioners are more bookish chefs, They lay some where between chemists and alchemists. Creating candies and sweets that can invigorate the common soldier, the complex sugars lending them hours of energy, or some times sending them into manic berserk frenzies. Or they may use the complex chemical interactions for more explosive results. (there cinnamon fire ball candies, saliva triggered incendiary bombs) The have the bit added to there uniform do to the habit of some confectioners of frequent sampling of there own wears and as we all know candy is addictive

On the right is the final member of this trio. Though the other ranks may disdain the Fry Cook for his Lack of honor and the corruption of his culinary skills in the combat chefs there exist no better spies or assassins. They are experts in the use of both swords, they tend to use other methods to defeat there foes. Experts in in food poisoning and allergic reactions they tend to work quietly. in most cases the actions of a fry cook can never be proven but if it comes to a fight they tend to prefer to fight from range with thrown meat skewers or with there own weapon of office the deadly spatula. (the one seen here is based on real world spatulas). Like the field cook Fry Cook's can be rather mercenary selling there services to the highest bidder. Fry cooks are often hired as body guards as much as assassins since they know the ins and outs of the assassin's game. The most dangerous place to be is between two competing Fry cooks. Since they will hesitate to blatantly kill a member of the school, they will try to indirectly kill one another usually with lots or collateral damage to those around them
