Character Profile[ | ]

There are two types of people with a craftspeople. The first one is those who seek recognition from their creation and the second one is those who enjoy the process of creation. 14M-RFT09 belongs to the latter group. He wants to make outstanding food and push his limits.

It appears that he sees the island as a challenge, where scarce edibles, run-down cookers, and such 'limited conditions' are something he must overcome. Before coming to the island, 14M-RFT09 used to run a small Chinese restaurant in Korea, but he used to be a personal chef for one of the higher-ranked associates of China's national politicians.

It's pretty clear that he didn't enjoy making the same menu repeatedly like a machine after making a diverse menu with access to all kinds of ingredients. He wants to show off his talent like he used to. You may want to take advantage of this.

Behavior pattern [Craft Ten Tonics Soup 60 time(s)][ | ]

It's been said that 14M-RFT09(Xiukai)was a personal chef for a high-ranking government official. He is nice to people who compliments his cooking, but his attitude turns around when his efforts aren't appreciated. That's why he often argues with 14M-RFT06(Rosalio), who complains about everything, and with 15M-RFT18(Magnus) who believes that cooking is unmanly.

The reason others work with one another is to help each other in finding necessary items and fighting off threats. On the other hand,14M-RFT09 cooperates with others only because he just needs someone to appreciate his art. Most people just make sure their food is cooked enough to eat, but he fusses over his cooking. It's pathetic, in the classical sense of the word.

According to his character, he would have stuck to his patron despite the purge, cooking his last supper. Why did he run away instead? Nobody is sure of the reason, but something in him changed after he could no longer cook haute cuisine he'd become used to before running away. Maybe this is the reason why he is obsessed with cooking.

I've seen 14M-RFT09(Xiukai) make a meal out of wooden chopsticks. I saw it with my own eyes but I still don't believe it. I've heard that it's ordinary for people to make fake eggs... I have never seen alchemy like that in action before.

Weakness & Trauma [Craft Kaoliang Liquor 22 time(s)][ | ]

There is a story of two friends in China. One was a great harpist and his friend was the only one who truly understood the beauty of his music. After the friend died, the harpist cut the strings of his instrument and never played again. He believed no-one who could appreciate his music was left in the world.

I can only imagine how he would have felt to cook the same menu hundreds of time at a small restaurant after he enjoyed his life as a self-proclaimed artist and a personal chef of a powerful politician. I hypothesize his experience as an elite chef with exposure to 'the only people' who appreciate his 'artisanal cooking' has shaped his obsession with cooking.

Likes & Dislikes [Craft Crimson Flower 3 time(s)][ | ]

14M-RFT09(Xiukai) eats meat at least once a day. Meat dumplings seem to be his favorite, as we have observed him eating them often. Every animal he catches turns to dumplings. He had made crow, gorilla, bear, and dog dumplings. As for another person... Fortunately 14M-RFT09(Xiukai) has not made dumplings out of anyone.

According to our observations. Yesterday, I heard him mumbling 'human meat tastes like a pomegranate...', but I plan to pretend I heard nothing. Say... who was in charge of 06M-RF01(Jackie)? Can I ask for a transfer?

14M-RFT09(Xiukai) hates people with bad table manners. Stirring soup with chopsticks, shoving utensils in a bowl of rice, leaving food on a plate, picking meals apart... Anyone doing these on his table has no chance of teaming up with him, much less survive with their hands intact. The latter statement is a factual observation.

He finds meaning in food more than you would expect. I wonder if 14M-RFT09(Xiukai) expects proper respect to his food as an artist or has some othe reason.

Acquaintance Interview [Use Turtle Soup 50 time(s)][ | ]

XiuKai Acquaintance Interview

Oh, yeah, that Chinese restaurant with no sign. Yes, I used to work there. What's it called? <Nameless>. Its name is that it has no name.

Don’t look at me like that. I'm dead serious. The business was great. The owner was an extraordinary chef. It was busy all day just through word of mouth.

One time, on my birthday, he asked me to sit down after the restaurant had closed for the day. Like I could speak back. He had a cleaver on his hand. I was wondering what it was all about. Turns out he had prepared a feast. I was so touched that I almost cried while I ate.

Nah, I didn’t speak a word while I was eating. He was very insistent about upholding good table manners. We weren’t even supposed to take customers while we were having our meals. He would give us a scary look, like he was telling us to keep eating. Strange, right? Usually, the customer comes first.

Anyway, the food was delicious. I emptied out all the dishes. He seemed pleased that I ate all of them. Nothing much else happened. Maybe he opened a new restaurant somewhere, I can’t get hold of him anymore. Man, his food was so delicious...
