Editing Potions

'''Potions''' are alchemical concotions that can heal, restore mana, and do other things to the one who drinks them. They are the result of [[Alchemy]].

== Overview ==
Potionmaking has been a somewhat detailed topic in some chapters like [https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/14/2-12/ Chapter 2.12] (Ryoka in Octavia's shop) and [https://wanderinginn.com/2019/08/20/6-39/ Chapter 6.39] (Numbtongue in Octavia's shop).

Potions become stronger when brewed by high leveled [Alchemists]. For instance if [[Saliss Oliwing|Saliss]], a high-Level [Alchemist], makes a low-grade Potion of Barkskin, its strengthen effects would be close to a lesser Potion of Ironscales.<ref name=":Saliss the Adventurer">[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/04/interlude-saliss-the-adventurer/ Interlude - Saliss the Adventurer]</ref>

Potions have a wide range of effectiveness and highly varied results due to every [Alchemist] creating their potions differently, as a consequence of a lack of standardisation, secrecy about ingredients and methods, and the use of Skills.<ref name=":2" />

The magic in potions makes them resistant to freezing. If the magic is drained, the potion will become useless, and no longer have this property.<ref>{{VERef|10.03 Y}}</ref> 

=== Taste ===
In most cases [Alchemists] can not make Potions taste good at all with some being so bad that they make you throw up before you could down them. It is also impossible to add something like a flavor to potions without creating an entirely different effect, like adding a bit of lemon juice to some to make them taste better only for the entire thing to coat you in poisonous foam.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/14/2-12/ Chapter 2.12]</ref> This turns out to not be completely true as [[Fraerlings]] know how to make them taste good.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/06/08/interlude-luan-the-giant/ Interlude – Luan the Giant]</ref>

|Healing Potion
|'''Effects'''
* Accelerates the body natural healing ability, so that it heal wound in seconds instead of hours or days.
'''Limitations'''
*There is a limit of how often a person can drink a healing potion and expecting it to treat his wounds. After the consumption of a couple ones, the body stops regenerating and makes said person very exhausted.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/02/07/1-41/ Chapter 1.41]</ref>
*Can't regenerate missing limbs, cure colds, or frostbites.
*Has the opposite effect on sickness and disease, as it makes them stronger and deadlier.
*Using it after a workout would restore the body to its previous state, thus negating any muscle build up.
*With over use and time, people bodies develop resistances to healing potions. Thus they no longer work perfectly.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/04/12/7-17-s/ Chapter 7.17 S]</ref>
|'''Costs'''
*A Low-grade Healing Potion costs nearly a gold coin in Liscor.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/12/04/1-29/ Chapter 1.29]</ref> It seems to be similarly expensive in Celum.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/09/2-09/ Chapter 2.09]</ref>
'''Notes'''
*[[Healing]] Potions can come in many colors and qualities. However, the color itself is no indication of its quality.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/12/14/1-07-r/ Chapter 1.07 R]</ref>
*[[Eir gel]] is used as a key component for healing potions.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/08/20/6-39/ Chapter 6.39]</ref> <ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/09/26/8-44-o/ Chapter 8.44 O]</ref>
*There are different ratings for Healing Potions, such as Halflimb damage.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/08/31/interlude-of-vampires-and-fraerlings/ Interlude - Of Vampires and Fraerlings]</ref>
*Eir-gel based healing potions are accelerants, which is why they make infections and sickness worse. A purifying-based healing potion should be used in those cases instead.<ref name=":0" />

*It can last a long time if the bottle is sealed.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/06/28/9-03/ Chapter 9.03]</ref>

*Arguably, the orgasm experience is better than most could the old-fashioned way.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/21/mating-rituals-pt-2/ Mating Rituals Pt.2]</ref>
|-
|Sustenance Providing Potion
|'''Effects''' (When High-quality)

'''Limitations'''
*You will find it difficult to imbibe any other foods in the meantime, although it is possible.
|'''Notes'''
*It is a rare acquisition that [Alchemists] may pay well for. It is not a common discovery in adventurer’s packs however, as adventurers generally fail to properly re-seal them.
* Unlike the majority of potions, these aren't usually consumed all at once, but in small dosages, and improperly sealing the potion between each usage likely leads to the loss of its magical properties.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/12/09/3-36/ Chapter 3.36]</ref>

*Some potions, like Invisibility potions, cannot be used by Dragons.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/12/18/9-29/ Chapter 9.29]</ref>
