Pretty

 is an ogre cook who works at the Soot and Swill tavern in Jrusar. As an NPC, is played by Matthew Mercer.

Description
Pretty is a hunched nine-foot tall ogre. When the Campaign Three adventuring party first encountered him, he was wearing a long cap that reached his mid-back, no shirt, and a heavy leather apron. Since he was in the middle of a busy workday, his arms were spattered with grease, and he whistled to himself as he cooked.

Background
Before his job as a cook in the Soot and Swill, Pretty hit people as a profession, though he never intended to kill anyone. He prefers his current position as a chef because people treat him better.

While assisting the Campaign Three adventuring party with seeking out Artana Voe in the Soot and Swill tavern, Chetney snuck Invisibly into the kitchen where Pretty worked and discovered a hidden door. In order to get Pretty out of the kitchen so that Dorian, Orym, Ashton, and Chetney could investigate, Fearne ordered a meal and then asked to give her compliments to the chef. Pretty was moved to tears by being complimented on his cooking, and happily shared the recipe as they had a nice chat. In an attempt to distract him as he started heading back to the kitchen just as the rest of the party was leaving, Imogen asked him to go on a date with her, Laudna, and Fearne, and he somewhat hesitantly agreed to meet them after he got off work that night.

After escaping their previous caper unscathed, the three women and Fresh Cut Grass (who came along because they'd never been on a date before) greeted Pretty in a packed, watching tavern. Once Pretty collected on his bets with the other staff and the table exchanged gifts, he shooed the other patrons away and the date party had a meal and small talk. Afterwards, they all attended the Dreamscape Theater to watch a performance of Kendra's Flying Lauders, which Pretty wasn't invested in, preferring narrative-focused shows. After the performance, Pretty gently parted ways with the three, citing a great difference in personalities and promising to treat them all to a meal when they came back to the Soot and Swill with significant others.

Quotations

 * Pretty: I tend to be more of a purveyor of narrative stage theater, but I can appreciate the interpretive dance and acrobatic aspects of the Lauders. Not my favorite, but...
 * Pretty: (to Laudna, Imogen, and Fearne  I enjoy your company and friendship deeply. But... I just think we're different kinds of people. Please, do not misunderstand. I just think you three have a lot of the world before you to see.
 * Pretty: (to Fearne) You're wonderful just how you are. Just not meant to be.
 * Pretty: (to Fearne, Imogen, and Laudna) I am compelled by each of your adventurous spirits. But... my search continues.

Trivia

 * Pretty's name is likely inspired by Buddy from, whose catchphrase is "You're pretty!" Buddy is also an ogre.
