Potions

Table of alchemical potions and their effects

Members of the Alchemists, Artisans and Loremasters guild have the ability to mix potions in empty bottles. These potions have a variety of effects. Potions have become essential possessions for the more powerful Avalonians. They can be purchased often from Cassiandora Square marketplace, from Chapman's Square and from near the Thakria Square. An individual potions typically holds fifty draughts and can be drunk using QUAFF <potion>. You can list the potions you hold by typing POTIONLIST. Potions normally conform to colours as detailed below, though the potion mixer has the ability to make them any colour he or she chooses.


Here is a list of the publicly known potions, the standard colours and the standard effects:

Blue       Heals a great deal of lost health. Amount depends on potion mixer.
Red        Heals paralysis and other assorted physical afflictions.
Sparkling  Heals lost mana. Amount depends on ability of potion mixer.   
Beige      Causes meditation to double in speed and cures the ditty curse.
Milky      Shrouds you in a cloak of invisibility for a while.
Clear      A potion of holy water, acting against damnation and dark curses.
Purple     Lends vigour to the quaffer so that they may avoid sleep.
Glittering Restores sight to one who has become blind.   
Indigo     Restores the gift of hearing to one who has gone deaf.
Grey       Afford an automatic resurrection a short while after death.
Blue       Gives the quaffer great resistance to extreme cold.
Red        Allows the drinker to suffer great heat and be unaffected.
Pink       Gives adrenalin upon unconsciousness, swapping health and mana.
Magenta    Creates a spirit cloak defence, prevents you being summoned.
White      Potion of allheale, heals the majority of afflictions.
Mauve      Speed potion, causing you to run very fast about the land.
Brown      Sustenance potion, removing hunger with a single gulp.
