Allows you to prepare the following mixtures.
Virus Lunarae
Ingested poison that kills you and turns you into a shambling undead horror.
- Form: Liquid.
- Description:
- Roleplaying Effects; You feel a growing chill spreading through your body. Over the next fifteen minutes you become increasingly cold and numb; shivering despite all efforts to keep you warm. You lose all sensation in your extremities, and eventually are incapable of feeling any physical sensation or holding anything in your numb fingers. You also become increasingly incoherent, and will tend to babble incomprehensibly as the symptoms worsen.
- Mechanical Effects: You are immediately effected by weakness which cannot be removed until the poison is cured. After ten minutes you can no longer move under your own power and cannot attack, defend yourself or use any abilities or items. At the end of thirty minutes you slip into a coma from which you will never recover. A few minutes after that, you reanimate as a flesh-hungry zombie bent on killing and devouring the living.
- Incorrect Antidote: If the incorrect antidote is applied, you slip into a coma and die. A few minutes later you will animate as a flesh-hungry zombie.
- Recipe: Three drams each of Marrowort and Cerulean Mazzarine and two drams each of True Vervain and Bladeroot.
Hunger of the Wolf
Might prefer this if it drives you into a killing frenzy of madness rather than siezures, so you keep attacking until put down, with Soul's Echo ritual as a potential cure?
- Form: Liquid.
- Description:
- Roleplaying Effects: You feel a growing heat spreading through your body. Over the next fifteen minutes you become extremely short tempered, often incoherent with rage, and lash out at anyone who annoys you. Your growing rage makes it harder and harder for you to concentrate; you begin to hear voices urging you to kill everyone around you.
- Mechanical Effects; You are immediately effected by venom which cannot be removed until the poison is cured. After ten minutes you can no longer communicate coherently with others, and become extremely violent. After thirty minutes you may choose to either enter a psychotic killing frenzy or suffer a fatal brain haemorage. You will never recover from this state.
- Recipe: Imperial Roseweald is hot, Bladeroot is confusing,
- Incorrect Antidote: If the incorrect antidote is applied, you undergo a pychotic break, raving incoherently and lashing out at everyone nearby for at most a minute or so before suffering a fatal brain hemorrhage and dropping dead.
- Recipe: Four drams each of Imperial Roseweald and True Vervain and two drams of Bladeroot.
Feast for Crows
How it works
If the target is not poisoned, the Feast for Crows causes .... Unfortunately it exacerbates the effect of other poisons, allowing them to quickly overwhelm the bodies defences and resulting in quick death.
- Form: Salve.
- Description: This lumpy red balm has a texture similar to that of rotting meat soaked in blood. It is quickly absorbed into the skin, leaving red marks behind.
- Roleplaying Effects: You are overwhelmed by alternating burning fever and freezing numbness that completely incapacitates you. You may lose consciousness, and suffer painful convulsions. Over the next five minutes the symptoms of either Virus Lunarae or Hunger of the Wolf quickly recede.
- Mechanical Effects: Removes the effect of either or both of Virus Lunarae or Hunger of the Wolf. The weakness and venom effects need to be removed separately. If you are not poisoned, you are reduced to 0 hits by this unpleasant preparation.
- Recipe: Four drams each of Marrowort and Cerulean Mazzarine, three drams each of Bladeroot and Imperial Roseweald and one dram of True Vervain.
