Zonty 457 Share Posted March 17 [link] ====================================================== In lands afar of common ilk, in chambers locked beneath the earth, a scholar sought to alleviate the greatest malediction of knowledge; its loss. The scrolls as elderly as time were eaten by voracious flame; entombed as ashes. Books with bygone lore were lost beneath the undulating waters; where riverbeds became their never-yielding graves. It is unfair, to have the expertise, although recorded, lost throughout the ages on nature's whim. “To soothe friend’s sorrow. . .” -+--+--+- Thusly so, trudging through innumerable failures and downfalls, the scholar held perseverance in strife against the cruel fate of history. And upon a fateful midnight, in a laboratory, where candles had long been crushed by their own fires, in a farthest nook that prevailed lit, success beset the faithful scholar. ====================================================== Elixir of Preservation [Open] Recipe: Base: Ochre - Silence (x4) - Purity (4x) - Strength (2x) - Separation (3x) - Endurance (6x) Appearance: A cloudy, gray-ish liquid. Effects: Should paper, book, scroll or any material of an alike ilk be submerged in the water for a duration of at least an OOC hour, the brew will bestow great resilience unto the subject, which comes in two different types. Fire resistance: Being an element most volatile, the defense against it is hardest to acquire; Spitting embers, sparks and other alike minute occurrences of flame will be incapable of incurring any damage to the parchment. A direct clash with open flame, however (i. e. a book thrown into a hearth), will outmatch the potency of the concoction. It will persist unharmed for around the duration of a single emote. Even if the book will be retrieved to safety therein, the effects of the concoction will have vanished, although reapplication of the elixir would be still possible. Water resistance: The concoction acts as a far more prominent shield against liquid compared to flame, repelling it from parchment without too much trouble. Thereby, however, difficulty is poised in actually writing something on the parchment, as any ink, unless the text had been written down prior to the elixir’s application, would be warded off. Every ink except a specially devised one; Redlines: - The elixir grants paper minute resistance to water and flame, but does not have any defense against force applications thereof. (I. e. a water-blast powerful enough could still shred a scroll, etc.) - Requires Alchemy T2 - Does not require ST signature - Each potion is enough for only 3 books or similarly sized objects at most - Only works on paper and material alike ====================================================== Piercing Ink [Open] Recipe: - Dye, or other kind of substance that can be utilized for writing - Instability (2x) - Connection (2x) Appearance: Identical to the original guise of whatever dye was utilized in the process. Effects: The only notable power is the ability to puncture the shield that Elixir of Preservation yields. Redlines: - .. It’s just ink - Does not require ST signature 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all it does is adding a tiny weak bit of fire and water resistance to paper-like materials this seems excessive. A Blasting Potion is actually cheaper than this. Also gives no actual instructions on how to make it, or a base. Is there no base? Do you just throw all of the signs together and pour it on paper? What happens here?

The cost is piped up to avoid abundance of the brew's application; whilst writing, I pictured the potion as an apparatus of very much devout scholars to mitigate harm to their treasured scrolls, etcetera. It also comes as a detriment to the fact that the effects of the potion last for virtually an endless amount of time, should they manage to avoid the pinnacle of extreme conditions Thanks for noting the base though. It got lost during the paste somehow, and is now fixed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
