The Chef chathead

The Chef, full name Carlos Napp, is an adventurer found in the player-owned port. He is a keen chef, and seeks to create a perfect dish, but appears to be slightly insane. He can be unlocked and gives special voyages to the player running the port if the player has 90 Cooking. The Chef can be unlocked through the tutorial or a special voyage.

He also features in the Celebration of Fire in Lumbridge Crater, coming back from his voyages in the Eastern Lands after hearing of a gigantic lobster at the crater.
