Even a decade removed from its release, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim continues to be a staple in the realm of open world RPGs. There are dozens of hours of questing to be had in Skyrim, but part of the game's appeal is the ability to stumble upon interesting, unique interactions even after dozens of hours in the game. One such instance occurs when finding a cannibal chef named Knjakr living under the city of Riften, who daringly attempts to make the Dragonborn his next meal.
Players simply exploring the nooks and crannies of Skyrim may be surprised to find themselves suddenly attacked by a man wearing a chef hat and apron. A Nord, Knjakr will attempt to convince the Dragonborn to enter his humble abode, feigning friendliness. Unfortunately, Knjakr is lying through his teeth with hilariously on-the-nose remarks like "I won't bite" and "I've been waiting for you, my sweet one." When the Dragonborn approaches, he'll attack with an axe weapon, which he has been sharpening for just such an occasion on the grindstone in his home.
Knjakr doesn't pose an especially dangerous threat to high level characters, but more trusting players of a lower level may be caught off guard and put in a difficult situation by his sudden attack if Knjakr's true intentions aren't known beforehand. Those hoping to flaunt their culinary aspiration in Tamriel might find seeking out Skyrim's cannibal chef worthwhile, since killing him will provide a Chef's Hat and Chef's Tunic as loot. The novelty of the interaction is a reward in itself, though, a testament to The Elder Scrolls' worldbuilding and an entertaining bit of inconsequential side content.
Knjakr lives in the The Ratway Warrens below Riften, one section of the sewer-like tunnel network known as The Ratway. Players will have to access The Ratway Vaults through The Ragged Flagon before finding the door the the Warrens. The Ragged Flagon is an inn associated with Skyrim's secretive Thieves Guild, and players will likely travel into the Warrens during a side quest called A Cornered Rat. Knjakr won't spawn while this quest objective is active, though, and players will have to return to the Warrens and find Knjakr's cell another time.
The cannibal chef is only one of four NPCs to be found in the Warrens, a relatively small area, so he is not difficult to track down once players have found their way through the Vaults. The Ratway Warrens appear to be a place of seclusion for the downtrodden and disturbed, with Knjakr its most shocking resident. Skyrim's cannibal chef is a bit out of the way, but delving through the tunnels of Riften may be worth it for the interaction alone.
