Berend is a chef with brown half long curly hair, blue eyes and he is a little bit fat.
Berend was born in the summer of 1601. He was raised on the farm of his father where he learned a lot about the crops and how to take care of them. These lessons learned him for example how to get rid of Ant Blight, how to grow wheat, potatoes, pumpkins... as efficient as possible and to be careful with Crimson Vase, Diddyfunkles, Fire Flowers and Night Sap. In these years he visited the baker at least twice a week. Not to buy something, but to see how he made bread, cake and other delicious things.
At the age of 18 he hadn’t seen anything of the world and wanted to change that. His journey didn’t take long because when he entered Carolustadt, he saw the art of making some nice meals for the people and decided that he also wanted to do that. A person who worked at that place saw how passionate he was about food that he offered him a place to stay and an opportunity to learn. Berend accepted this offer and lived and learned there for 2 years. After those 2 years he asked to work at the place that inspired him so much and got accepted. He loved the job so much that he just became better and better. He was very happy with his live until he got 8 years later the news that the farm of his parents was burned by a group of criminals. The moment he read that, he decided to return to his home village to see with his own eyes what happened. He had to quit his job because of that but he wanted to do that for his parents. So he went back with a donkey, borrowed from his friend carrying his stuff. On his way he got ambushed by a robber that wanted to take all his money. This robber called him fat. Berend’s friend knew it wasn’t smart to do that but this robber definitely underestimated Berend by saying that. Because of that, Berend became so angry that he took his ladle and hit the robber 4 times on his head with it. The robber ran away and Berend didn’t believe that he actually did that. Back in his home village he saw the ashes of the farm and the graves of his parents. This image would cause the hate he has for robbers and criminals.
After his visit he went back to the city, but now he didn’t have a job. Luckily (now) his friend that helped him the first time he came to the city took him in for another year. He couldn’t believe what those criminals did to his parents and didn’t understand why they do those things. After that year he decided to take some fighting lessons with his last money so he could defend his friends and family the next time something happened. He followed these lessons for a year, but after all he knew that he was a better cook than a warrior so he started searching for a job. After 2 months he found a job and worked there until 2 years ago. Now he is trying to enjoy life a bit by eating some new kinds of food and doing some things that he loves next to cooking, but his love for cooking will always stay and is still cooking a lot in his private life. Since a couple of months, he wants to travel again to see the different kinds of cultures and food.
