Chef Saltbaker

Chef Saltbaker is an anthropomorphic salt shaker who has a pointy nose and wears a chef's uniform, including a traditional white jacket with red-trimmed sleeves and a red ascot around his neck. In addition, his metal cap resembles a blanche. Additionally, in the DLC's climax, he sports sinister-looking yellow eyes with dark circles around them.

During his boss battle, after the heroes damage his outer body enough, Saltbaker degenerates into a sapient salt mass that can form into a humanoid shape. His heart has a similar face to his, including the pointed nose and a salt cap on one lobe. It is typically pink, but becomes cyan for a few seconds when parried.

In his introduction, Chef Saltbaker is a seemingly jolly individual with a kind attitude. He appears more than happy to help bring Ms. Chalice to life and even gives the brothers a special cookie that can temporarily allow Chalice to live on the mortal plane. However, after the requested ingredients are gathered, Saltbaker reveals himself to be a cunning and cut-throat individual, willing to sacrifice a soul to create the Wondertart in his plot to conquer the astral plane. This degree of cruelty is further shown in his boss battle, where Saltbaker abuses and/or kills the living ingredients in order to battle their gatherers.

While his reputation is genuine, it is unknown whether Saltbaker was always this way or perhaps it stemmed for his desire to create the Wondertart. However, by the end of the DLC, Saltbaker has shown to be humbled by his defeat, after doing his ordered community service, he is shown to be much more kind and generous.
