<span style="color:#99cc00;">'''[Wondrous Fare]'''</span> is a Unique, Rare Cooking [[Skills|Skill]]. It allows the User to make Magical Food with different effects by following a theme. It was first learned/created by [[Erin Solstice]]. ==Skill Origin== This Skill came to be when its creator, Erin, arranged a banquet for the [[Frost Faeries]] by using specific ingredients like new cow’s milk, preparing the food in a childish and dreamlike manner, and arranging the dishes with "pure" or "death" themes. After the banquet, Erin would level up and learn the <span style="color:#99cc00;">[Wondrous Fare]</span> Skill.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/03/2-19/ Chapter 2.21]</ref> ==Skill Effects== ===Proper Skill Use=== First the User starts by preparing a base for the Magical Food. As this Skill has effects that are compared to a high-level [Alchemist] Skills, it allows the User to bypassing and/or skipping some of the natural steps in the creation process, or the need for a particular reagent. This allows the User to skip on the need to mix up a proper base first, like dissolving ingredients and mixing them together. With this reagents that wouldn't react normally would start interacting when the User stirred them.<ref name="3.15" /> Even a [[Sage’s Grass]] base, which would take an [Alchemist] over Lv. 20<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/03/26/6-02/ Chapter 6.02]</ref> a week to dissolve, would dissolve instantly with this Skill. After the base is done the User picks a theme, like Darkness, as well as emotions and intentions, and ingredients that fit them. Like if the theme is Darkness then the ingredients mast be all dark in color, and the User having dark emotions in them and intentions to prepare the dish in a dark environment.<ref name=":Food and Growth">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/08/12/interlude-food-and-growth/ Interlude - Food and Growth]</ref> Then the ingredients are combined thematically according to their intuition, to achieve an effect that fits the theme. In order for this to work the User must really want it, and by doing so they get to know what is needed for the theme recipe to work by instinct. Also, while the right ingredients mattered for the food to work, a straight recipe didn’t matter, because so long the User achieved their goal—the food worked. As the dish preparation progresses, the User starts to clearly imagining what the final dish would be like, and what effects it would have and the duration of said effects. Should something happen that impends the process, like not having the right ingredients, the User can improvise other ingredients while ''seeing'' in their head the recipe struggling to adapt for a way to work. If that fails as well than the User can adapt and make a new different dish with the current ingredients. If that works, the image of the dish in their head changes into a new dish and how to make it. The User can also ''feel'' when something goes wrong during the preparation, and if it turns out to be a failure then the image of all possible dishes will be gone from their head. It should be noted that even if the food turns out to be a failure, the result can still have some of the intended magical effects, albeit with somewhat different effects and duration.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/06/10/7-28/ Chapter 7.28]</ref> The effects of the food can be dispelled like magical enchantments.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/12/18/9-29/ Chapter 9.29]</ref> ===Improper Skill Use=== It is also possible to prepare Magical Food without following the proper steps, like not following a theme. This unfortunately results in the Magical Food being flawed as it has weaker effects, and most of the time tasting terrible. The User also has to constantly experiment to make something that works, with most failures in doing so resulting in the food being harmful or deadly to the consumers.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/09/23/3-15/ Chapter 3.15]</ref> The flawed Magical Food also has a short expiry date that range from the best ones lasting about a week, to others going bad in a few hours. Still if they are kept under a Preservation Skill or Spell, they don't expire. Should they be consumed after their expiry date, it would cause the consumer to either to throw up (in one case in all different colors), to having strong diarrhea.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/30/4-07/ Chapter 4.07]</ref> ==Notable Known Users== ====[[Erin Solstice]]==== == Magical Food Creations== List of Magical Food created with the <span style="color:#99cc00;">[Wondrous Fare]</span>. ===Food Created by Erin=== [[File:Wandering-Inn-Menu-4-by-Enuryn.png|thumb|300px|Magic Food<br />(by [[Fanworks/Enuryn|Enuryn]], commissioned by [[Pirateaba]])|center]] {| class="wikitable" width="100%" ! style="text-align: center;" width="20%" |<u>Names</u> ! style="text-align: center;" width="10%" |<u>Types</u> ! style="text-align: center;" width="10%" |<u>Theme</u> ! style="text-align: center;" width="30%" | <u>Effects</u> ! style="text-align: center;" width="30%" |<u>Additional Information</u> |- | style="text-align: center;" |Poison Bone Steak | style="text-align: center;" |Steak | style="text-align: center;" |Death | *The food is actually tasteful for the [[undead]]. | *While it looks a little bit like a steak, it does not have any meat in it, only bones of dead animals. *It is prepared by having the bones dried and ground up into dust, then having other bones soaked in pig’s blood and mixed with Mana potions. *It is then baked together using marrow as glue.
