Ken runs the bakery in Veilwood and trains players in Cooking. He is a separate character from the mage Kenji.
The bakery
Ken starts players with ordinary ingredient deliveries and baked goods. After five bakery shifts he offers to assemble a Cooking Pot, opening a longer series of recipe assignments.
Bakery shifts
| Shift | Name | What Ken requests |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Stock the Pantry | 32 Wheat, 16 Sugar |
| 2 | Breakfast Prep | 24 Eggs, 4 Milk Buckets |
| 3 | Cookie Rush | 48 Cookies |
| 4 | Pie Day | 12 Pumpkin Pies |
| 5 | Big Bakery Order | 2 Cakes, 24 Bread |
Cooking apprenticeship
Once players own a Cooking Pot, Ken trains them through 40 cooking requests. His standards rise as they progress, and he gradually teaches more recipes. Following the fortieth request, Ken offers the player a full-time position at the bakery.
Full-time work and mastery
Full-time workers complete another 20 cooking requests, using high-quality dishes. Unlike apprentice shifts, these can be taken without waiting until the following day. Completing the full-time progression makes the player a Master Chef, awards 250 QuestTokens, and teaches Ken's prized Steak and Eggs recipe.
