FROST OIL

Similar to the potion of freezing from which it was based upon, Frost Oil is an oil with freezing capabilities, primarily being applied to clothing, armor, and particularly blades. It has a variety of uses, from inflicting chill and fatigue upon an opponent with the slash of a blade, to allowing individuals to travel more comfortably through boiling volcanos. 

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard

- 3x Coldness

- 2x Freezing

- 1x Swiftness

- 2x Endurance

 

EFFECTS

The effects of this oil will cool whatever it touches, primarily through physical contact as opposed to open exposure. It may be applied to armor or clothing in order to make the wearer cold, whilst also providing protection from exposure to heat and other warm forces as flame, allowing one’s armor or flesh to be much more enduring to open flame and heat. Frost Oil might also be applied to one’s weapon, giving it a faint, shiny glisten. Should this blade cut exposed flesh, frostbite forms around the wound as ice forms in a layer over the injury, preventing bleeding through causing the victim to feel fatigued as their very blood is chilled. If not quickly treated, the area may even have to be amputated.

 

Spoiler

- Wounds inflicted by Frost Oil on its own will not immediately warrant amputation, however, the fatigued effect inflicted by the oil occurs typically within one or two emotes of the injury’s formation. As a result, injuries inflicted by Frost Oil do not bleed due to the ice formation unless the ice is removed, and thus, the slowness effect alleviated. 

- When applied to material such as metal, the material will become more brittle, potentially chipping or even shattering if too much force is applied, depending on its composition. This applies to both armor and weapons.

- Tier Three.

-Requires ST Signing

FLAME OIL

Akin to Frost Oil, Flame Oil possesses a similar effect, save that it is the exact opposite. Upon contact with any object, unless that said object’s properties prevent such, the oil will heat up upon exposure to air, making for an excellent quick combat application. 

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard

- 3x Burning 

- 2x Rage

- 2x Heat

- 1x Peace

- 1 x Balance

 

EFFECTS

Within seconds of its exposure to air, the oil will become incredibly hot, heating up the object which it is applied to within seconds. Assuming the object’s material is a good conductor of heat, such as a sword, the oil will cause an immense burning upon any flesh it touches, easily distributing second degree burns, flesh turning red and creating puss. Should the oil be applied to a more flammable object such as processed wood or cloth, it would spark aflame, though merely as regular fire, and could be put out with relative ease should one make haste; also, non-processed woods would take significantly longer to light aflame. If applied to something such as armor, assuming it is not directly touching the skin, the armor would become more resistant to cold, able to absorb a greater amount of frost safely, albeit not totally immune. 

 

Spoiler

- Flesh which makes contact with Flame Oil will turn red upon contact, receiving second degree burns as flesh is torn relatively easily, puss spilling from them. This is both painful and damaging to the victim.

- Beyond cloth and other flammable objects, Flame Oil does not set things aflame instantly, such as flesh, rather, applying an immense amount of heat to the point where combustion is possible with flammable objects, including materials such as metals.

- When applied to a material such as common iron or steel, the oil will corrode it, scorching it and causing it to potentially warp and bend with exposure to enough force, such as clashing against another blade. This applies to both armor and weapons.

- Tier Three.

-Requires ST Signing

AURIC OIL

Auric Oil is a curious concoction involving the application of Liquid Essence in alchemy, sought out often by mage hunters, often dousing their blades and weapons within it before battles with magical creatures due to its anti-magical properties.

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard + Liquid Essence

- 2x Instability

- 1x Impediment

- 1x Death 

 

EFFECTS

Auric Oil destabilizes the mana within entities where mana is a primary composition, such as Voidal Horrors or Golems. While it does not have the same effect upon descendants, for example, it still provides a more noticeable amount of pain to those who wield mana more prevalently, namely mages. Ectoplasmic or phantom beings would find their ectoplasm destabilized, making weapons doused in the oil capable of making contact with their intangible forms, disrupting their frames and causing them to demanifest with three direct hits. Atronachs and other mana-based constructs, such as golems, will find the oil to tear through their element like a knife through warm butter, dealing heavy damage to their cores and weakening their casting ability, allowing them to take four direct hits before de demanifesting. Runesmiths’ runes will react violently, trembling and shaking as they crack and thus are damaged. Substances such as Shade Amber would be damaged similarly as if to Aurum, though Shades themselves are unaffected. Mana fueled objects and enchantments can be quite damaged by contact with Auric Oil and the effects of the oil can render the enchantment null or even tear a spell apart directly should it be used to ‘cut’ through the spell. And lastly, Auric Oil is excruciating to Voidal Horrors, tearing them apart by their very seams, cutting through them as if slicing parchment paper with a sharpened knife.

 

Alternatively, one may embalm an item in Auric Oil to remove an enchantment from it, and with this prolonged contact, could nullify Tier-5 Enchantments. This would require one week within a bath of Auric Oil uninterrupted.
 

Spoiler

- While Auric Oil may cause slight unease or minor pain upon contact with a mana-based being, real damage will only occur if the Oil is applied to a damaging object, such as a blade. 

- Auric Oil affects all mana-based spells and creatures (therefore, paladin magic, druid magic, house magic, etc) that are T3 or below.

--A Paladin or Housemage is not a mana-based creature, nor is a descendant. A Voidstalker, Voidal Horror, and so on, are.

- Mana based spells are NULLED upon contact with this oil (Oil must contact the spell not the caster). Due to this effect the oil upon contact will also act as a "Direct Abjuration" to mana based objects such as tears and obelisks for example.

- Mana based creatures will have the mana within destabilized by contact with the oil causing an effect depending on how this may effect the creature, this acts as a "Direct Abjuration" to creatures such as Horrors or Voidstalkers for example.

-Enchantments that use Mana based spells would be NULLED and ILLEGIBLE FOR USE FOR THE REST OF COMBAT if effected by Auric Oil as these are mana based objects.

- To remove an enchantment (Tier 5 and below), one must roleplay placing the item in an auric oil bath for one OOC week, uninterrupted. Afterward the description may be edited or ST sign removed.

- Tier Two.

-Requires ST Signing

FORTITUDE OIL

Simply described as “armor for your armor”, Fortitude Oil strengthens the durability and endurance of the material it is applied to, often being applied to armor, weapons, shields, or other goods that an alchemist might wish to protect.

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard

- 1x Earth (Any)

- 2x Endurance

- 1x Fire (Any)

- 3x Strength

 

EFFECTS

Upon application, any armor or clothing it is applied to will become more enduring, able to take hits from arrow hits, stabs, and light slashes with relative ease. However, blunt force from weapons such as hammers and axes, as well as faster projectiles such as crossbow bolts, will still cause successful harm to the armor, denting and puncturing it with enough force. In the case of weapons, the weapon will become more enduring, like that of high-carbon steel, though will not exceed this even if the natural durability of the weapon exceeds the standard for the oil. This makes it optimal for extending the life and durability of the weapon it is used on.

 

Spoiler

- Arrow hits, stabs, and slashes refer to attacks that would normally pierce linen or gambeson, though if the attack should be able to pierce or dent armor, it more than likely will. 

- Fortitude Oil does not make a material impervious to damage, and excessive damage to the armor even from something as slashes and arrows can still leave the individual wounded. At the very most, an object treated with Fortitude Oil would at most be granted twice as much endurance, able to take double the amount of damage before it would normally break. 

- Tier Two.

-Requires ST Signing

HAIR REJUVENATION OIL

A simple oil utilized by hair stylists or perhaps even rogues, growing a surplus of hair upon any flesh it is applied to. Often, one must be careful when handling it, as a single slip of a finger could result in hair growing all over the individual.

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard

- 2x Grace

- 2x Swiftness

- 4x Growth

 

EFFECTS

Upon application to any skin or bald spot hair will grow from it, the length determined by the amount applied; typically a drop or two correlated to half an inch of hair, and applying more will cause the hair to grow even further. If only a smidge or drop is applied to regular hair, the hair will become rather shiny and pristine. Should something contaminate the oil, however, it may cause fungus or other undesirable things to grow instead of hair, and consumption of the bottle is not a pleasant experience either, causing the individual to likely vomit entire mouthfuls of hair for a period of time, albeit rather harmless. 

 

Spoiler

- Hair Rejuvenation Oil causes hair to grow longer and become shinier, nothing else.

- Does not require ST signing.

- Tier One.

GLUE OIL

A handy concoction which can act as a powerful glue or adhesive to objects it is applied to, being quite versatile for things such as construction or repair. 

 

RECIPE

Base: Lard

- 1x Swiftness

- 2x Connection

- 2x Endurance

 

EFFECTS

Should Glue Oil be applied to two objects, it will stick them together with relative ease. This can be used to stick things together in construction, acting as cement, or perhaps create shoes that don’t slip on ice, or even repairing something as a broken sidewalk. Ultimately, it’s very versatile and leaves much to the alchemist’s own creativity.

 

Spoiler

- If applied to another individual’s feet, it would make movement more difficult, requiring them to slightly struggle to move, though is certainly not able to completely stop them.

- Glue Oil wouldn’t be strong enough to allow someone to climb up walls with shoes.

- Does not require ST signing.

- Tier One.

 

---

 

GENERAL REDLINES 

- Unless stated otherwise, all oils require an ST signature to be valid.

- These oils are considered common alchemical knowledge and could be assumed to be learned by moderate to adept alchemists, assuming they understand the means.

- As a rule of thumb, more than one oil cannot be applied to an object at the same time, lest the object rust, warp, become brittle, or even combust.

- At most, the effects of applied Oils will last for up to one OOC hour, though may be easily washed away through means of water, as any mundane oil. Exceptions to these are the Hair Rejuvenation and Glue Oils, which may last indefinitely, unless disturbed otherwise.

This isn’t how burning wood works dude.

Have you ever tried to light a log without first lighting tinder and then sticks? Doesn’t work.

Previously, were flame oil to be applied to something such as wood, it’d still catch aflame. That was maintained here as well, though it can still be put out with sufficient timing.

EDIT: I made sure to note that non-processed woods take significantly longer to light.
