Bolar Gratius

Bolar Gratius, an Imperial citizen, is the surly cook at Castle Bruma. He once used to run his own bakery in the Imperial City, but has been reduced to a household servant after making some poor business decisions.

He sleeps from 10pm to 5am in his small room in the Service Hall of the castle and will relax in his quarters until 7am, when he eats a quick, one-hour breakfast. He starts his duties in earnest at 8am and will toil away in the kitchens for the next ten hours, offering his services. At 6pm he will enjoy a deserved, if short, dinner, before relaxing in his quarters until his bedtime.

His attitude is evident upon meeting him: "Excuse me, I'm busy being the Count's good little chef, so if you don't mind..." When asking him about his wares, he will initially be surprised: "Buy some...? What do you think this is, a storefront? Oh, who am I kidding, I could use the gold. Here, let's see if we can make a trade." If you ask him what he does he will moan: "What do I do? What does it look like I do, sit in a rigid chair all day? I'm a servant of the Count. The castle's chef to be precise. I cook the food around here, and I do actual work, unlike some petty nobles around here."

If you thank him for the insight, he will remark sarcastically "Yes, that was a very charming conversation. I'd just hate to see you go." but if you press about his thoughts on the count he will admit: "That obvious? Yes, I know it's supposed to be a great honor and my future children should worship me for putting up with it. But this isn't how I planned to live my life. Back in the good days, I owned my own bakery in the Imperial City. Citizens from all over Tamriel came to sample my cuisine! Unfortunately some deals I made to keep my business going went south... far too fast for me to adapt. I lost everything. Well, suffice it to say, now I'm here, reduced to serving. Ech."

Bolar is decked out in full chef kit: tunic, hat and shoes. He carries a beef pasty, random drinks, a random selection of rings, gold, lockpicks and food, as well as some assorted tableware.
