Potions
Antidotes & Cures[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Sorcerers have their own medicines too which more effective than the medicine of normal humans and can work on most (depending on the potion) of the different races.
Cure for the Common Cold
LEVEL 5 - MEDIUM
4 mL cedar bark infusion
2 mL windflower water, made with stream water
1 pinch crushed sweetgrass
1 tsp dried ginseng
Yes, that's right. Using science and magic, sorcerers have found a fairly quick cure the common viral disease humans have not yet managed to cure with science yet. Why else would sorcerers seem to rarely ill from the disease?
Hangover Cure
LEVEL 3 - SIMPLE
2 drops of spirits
1 mL rain water
3 mL birch bark infusion
2 mL poppy infusion
2 tsp crushed grape vine [/i]
Everybody's best friend.
Commune Venena Antidotum
LEVEL 4 - SIMPLE
2 mL spring water
2 mL birch bark infusion
2 mL chamomile infusion
1 tsp crushed sweetgrass
1 tsp crushed yew [/i]
This antidote works on common poisons.
Periculosum Venena Antidotum
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
1 mL glacier water
4 mL infusion of cedar needles
2 pinches dried basil
2 drops vampire blood
2 drops water faerie blood
1 small crushed lily flower
1 pinch sage [/i]
This antidote works on the more rarer and more deadly poisons. However, it'd fail to cure Arden Melle, Praefocabilis Potum and Liquida Vesania due to the fact that they need can only be cured own individual antidotes.
Sanatio Adolebit
LEVEL 4 - SIMPLE
2 mL mandrake infusion
3 mL aloe sap
2 tsp honey
2 drops birch sap
1 drop dragon's tears [/i]
A balm that when applied to burns will instantly soothe and eventually heal.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Poisons[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
These are very dangerous, which is why most are levelled Difficult or Complex. Most of these will lead to death if an antidote is consumed. Some of these poisons were actually often used in the war with undercover sorcerers risking their lives to go behind enemy lines and lacing food and water sources.
Ardens Melle
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
4 Full table spoons of Honey
2 Drops of Belladonna extract
2 Drops of Liquid Fire
2 Full table spoons of Yellow Jessamine nectar
1 Drop of King Cobra Venom
A pinch of crushed lavender
Brew cautiously for five minutes no longer and no less.
WARNING: Overcooking can cause strong, sweet fumes that will burn when inhaled as well as burn your skin and eyes with contact.
Deliciously sweet like the most mouth-watering honey you'll ever taste. However, within ten minutes to half an hour of taking this seemingly delightful treat will start to burn you from the inside out. Like acid. A terribly painful and slow death is certain if you don't receive a cure within the first twelve minutes.
Praefocabilis Potum
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
2 teaspoons of Caladium extract
100ml of Goats Milk
A handful of Dandelion heads
A cup of Rose Thorns
1/2 a Rat's tail
[/i]
Whoever consumes this will experience a feeling that is simliar to suffocation. No matter how much air they try to take in it'll still feel like they can't catch their breath. They'll struggle, like a person drowning would struggle to get their head above water to breathe but no matter how hard they try no air will return to them unless they receive the correct antidote before their lungs and heart gives out.
Liquida Vesania
ILLEGAL/FORBIDDEN
LEVEL 10 - COMPLEX
A piece of Mandrake root
1 Toad eye
2 Drops of Vampire blood
A cup of Seawater
A handful of nettles
1/2 a handful of Kelp[/i]
Once consumed causes the taker to go insane. They'll lose all sense and may lose sight of who they are and who they care about. However, they will have fleeting moments where their sanity will return but they do not last. There is no cure or antidote to this poison and apparently those suffering from the effects of this poison get to the stage where in one of their moments of sanity they'll take their own lives to be free of the madness that plagues them.
Vomit Tonic
LEVEL 4 - SIMPLE
3 mL asphodel infusion
1 drop wolfsbane oil
1 drop blood of metal borea
1 pinch dried basil[/i]
This poison is meant more for pranks than to do actual damage. It induces intense vomiting in as few as 10 minutes after ingestion. While a simple antidote can cure this, failing to take an antidote within a certain amount of time can lead to severe health issues.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Bodily Rhythms[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Potions that interfere with your body's natural rhytymns by whether they aid, pause or prevent.
Exomnis Draught
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
4 mL bay leaf infusion
2 pinches cattail pollen
1 drop sweat of lightning borea
1 pinch dried fennel
This draft is often considered better than coffee at keeping someone awake and less addictive. It usually lasts for up to 24 hours from the time it was taken.
Dormientes Draught
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
200ml of warm Goat's milk
1/2 A cup of Poppy Powder
4 Owl feathers
2 teaspoons of Sloth blood
A handful of crushed Lavender
A pinch of Nutmeg
[/i]
Having trouble sleeping? This draft will knock you out in no time and it'll make sure you get however many hours your body needs in order for you to wake up refreshed and energized.
Temperando Natorum
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
2 mL linden infusion
2 tbsp honey
5 mL juiced prickly lettuce
2 pinches ash of fir needles [/i]
This is pretty much the sorcerer world's own version of the birth control pill only it's in the form of a cherry-flavored liquid. It must be taken once every two day or else...well, you could end up doing a Bree Oceanus.
Fertility Potion
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
6 mL goat's milk
4 tsp crushed rosemary
1 mistletoe berry
1 crushed almond
1 pinch dried mandrake[/i]
For sorceresses hoping to conceive a child, this is a must-have potion. It increases fertility dramatically and decreases the chances of miscarriage within the first few months of pregnancy.
Pregnancy Potion
LEVEL 5 - MEDIUM
3 mL honey
4 mL violet infusion
2 dried and crushed orchid flowers
1 mL very diluted lotus water
2 pinches dried and crushed ivy
3 drops sap from a fir tree[/i]
This is the recommended potion for pregnant sorceresses in order to prevent miscarriage, encourage fetal growth and development, and to keep mom and baby healthy. Thanks to this potion, sorceresses have had much lower infant mortality rates than humans for thousands of years.
Sexual Stimulant
LEVEL SIX - MEDIUM
4 mL mandrake infusion
2 mL almond milk
1 drop bull semen
2 tsp crushed bindweed[/i]
Not quite feeling it these days? Perhaps another potion has messed up your hormone levels? Well, this potion will return a healthy sex-drive to whoever drinks it. Unlike lust potions, it is generally safe, non-addictive, and will not cause sexual frenzy.
Anti-Sex Drive Potion
LEVEL SIX - MEDIUM
1 mL spring water
5 mL lily infusion
3 mL hawthorne infusion
1 tsp crushed chaste tree leaves[/i]
Historically, this potion was taken by sorcerers who took vows of chastity, but these days it can be used by anyone who wants to curb their urges for a little while. Perhaps you're in a dry spell. Pubescent sorcerers have been known to take a diluted version of this potion to prevent embarrassing situations at school.
Lupus Plenilunij Imperium
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
200ml of Seawater
50ml of Goat's Milk
5 Strands of Werewolf Hair
2 Strands of Werewolf fur
1 Teaspoon of Werewolf Blood[/i]
This potion was created for Werewolves. If taken half an hour to an hour before the Full Moon transformation it will allow the Human side of the werewolf stay in control of their wolf.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Love[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Want someone to fall in love with you? Want to move on, abandon a broken heart and find love with someone else? Want to mess with someone by making them fall in love with someone other than they're boyfriend or girlfriend? Or maybe you just want your parents to stop fighting, or to love your child more than you seem to, or keep your child close to you.
Or maybe you just want someone to love the same film as you.
Whatever the reason, this where you can find the many different kinds of Love Potions out there- but be careful! Love is a messy thing and you might just find that it's not quite as you hoped it would be.
You have been warned.
"To Be Loved"
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
5 Siren scales
1 Sample of DNA of the person you wish to fall in love with you
1/2 A Flamingo's beak
A handful of Red rose petals
A dash of Red Wine
This love potion is usually made with the intention to make a particular someone "fall in love" (as they would believe) with you which is why it involves using the DNA of the desired individual. The "To Be Loved potion", however, is tricky and unreliable as it may not hold and eventually wear off. It also often leads to obsessive behavior.
"To Love"
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
1 Heart of a Dove
1 teaspoon of Honey
1 Tear drop of a happy Siren
A handful of Purple rose petals[/i]
As opposed to the "To Be Loved" potion, this potion is usually made with the intention of the maker consuming it. It is said that the sorcerer who first created the potion used it in order to try and overcome a broken heart and love again.
"Love At First Sight"
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
2 tsp crushed rosehips
4 mL mango juice
1 mL apple blossom infusion
Yet another love potion- different from the others. This potion doesn't work on making someone "fall in love" with a particular person but instead, the first person they see upon consumption.
"Love Me Not"
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
150ml of Goat's Milk
4 Tear drops of a sorrowful Siren
1/2 a heart of a Hummingbird
A handful of crushed mint leaves
A couple of drops of Lemon Juice
A handful of Blue rose petals
[/i]
his potion is a two-person consumption potion created and used to make the people consuming it "no longer love each other".
However, like the "To Be Loved" potion; it is tricky and unreliable as it may not hold and eventually wear off if used on two people who were genuinely in love previously.
Heartbreak Healer
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
2 tears of the heartbroken
6 mL infusion of oak leaves
1 drop diluted rattlesnake venom
1 crushed hydrangea flower
1 bleeding heart flower[/i]
One of the greatest pains one can feel is that of a broken heart. This potion helps to soothe that ache and promote moving on.
Love Dissolution
LEVEL SEVEN - DIFFICULT
5 mL laurel infusion
DNA from the object of affection
1 dried and crushed reed leaf
3 drops heliotrope oil[/i]
Unlike Love-Me-Not, this is a one-sided potion that can be used to discourage romantic feelings, whether you yourself would like to curb a crush or, more deviously, to keep the object of your affection from finding love elsewhere. This, like all love potions, is uncertain and will not work in the case of "true love".
Lust Potion (addictive)
LEVEL NINE - DIFFICULT
4 mL lotus infusion
1 mL diluted hydrangea water
2 pinches saffron
1 drop bull semen
2 drops siren sweat[/i]
This potion has been abused throughout the years, slipped into unsuspecting people's drinks in order to win a night of passion. It has also proven to be incredibly addictive. Once someone uses it, he or she might find it difficult to become aroused without the potion. Its use is restricted now.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Physical Modification[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Whether you want to alter yourself to disguise or make someone you hate consume a potion that'll turn them green with pink polka dots or turn into a chicken or you want to change yourself for personal reasons, this is where you can find the right potion for you!
Aging Potion
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
7 mL willow bark infusion
2 tbsp bamboo leaf infusion
1 tsp soil from base of a centenarian oak
1/2 crushed snail shell
A potion to make the consumer age. But be careful! Wrong balance of ingredients can make you age far more than you originally desired and if brewed wrongly it could make you very sick.
Beauty-to-Beast Potion
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
juice of 1 avocado
1 tsp swamp water
1 hair of the subject
1 mL cypress leaf infusion
1 crushed elm leaf
Do you know someone that needs to be knocked down a peg? This potion will cause its consum,er to develop all of his or her personal ideas of ugliness. It wears off within a few hours, but it's worth a laugh.
Human Growth Potion
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
7 mL wheat infusion
2 pulped strawberry leaves
4 drops mother's milk
1 drop sap of a fir tree[/i]
Upon consumption it will make the consumer grow- how much depends on the right balance of ingredients and the way the potion is brewed.
Human Shrinking Potion
LEVEL 6 - DIFFICULT
2 mL glacier water
5 mL cassia infusion
3 tsp dried parsley
1 pink daisy pollen[/i]
Upon consumption it will make the consumer shrink- once again, how much depends on the right balance of ingredients and the way the potion is brewed.
Hair Growing Potion
LEVEL 4 - SIMPLE
4 mL wheat infusion
1 crushed elm lead
1 tbsp ginseng infusion
2 mL goat's milk[/i]
For sorcerers who are getting a little thin up top or anyone who doesn't want to wait for their hair to grow out, this shampoo is a quick way to long, flowing locks. Just be ready to need to cut off a foot or two to get to your desired length.
Strength Potion (addictive)
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
2 tsp werewolf saliva
4 mL ginseng infusion
1 tsp crushed fennel
1 crushed bamboo leaf[/i]
The magic equivalent to steroids, strength potion was commonly used by soldiers during the race wars, but unfortunately found to be rather addictive in prolonged use. It can also cause undue stress on the cardiovascular system. Use is restricted, but taking it once in a blue moon is no big deal.
Beautiful Skin
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
1 mL sea water
2 siren scales
5 mL mother's milk
2 mL rosewater
1 tsp minced tulip bulb[/i]
Struggling with acne or splotchy colouring? This topical lotion has long been a favourite of teen sorcerers to keep their skin flawless. Be cautious, though: overuse has been known to cause the skin to peel off of users' faces!
Speciem Aphrodite
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
250ml of Seawater
8 Crushed Pearls
4 Tablespoons of Siren Blood
2 Strands of Siren Hair
2 Small pieces of Coral
2 Peacock feathers
2 Dove Feathers
1 Handful of Pink rose petals
1 Handful of squashed ripe Strawberries
[/i]
The strongest Beautification potion. Named after the Greek Goddess of Love and Beauty herself.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Personality & Mental[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Madness Allieviation
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
2 mL rain water
5 mL lavender water
1 crushed walnut
1 pinch cattail pollen
1 pinch ash of larkspur
4 mL hellebore infusion
2 pinches soil from the base of an old elm tree
This potion was developed in response to Liquida Vesania. For those plagued with madness, this potion can give some relief for short periods of time. It calms, reduces paranoia, suppresses hallucinations, and allows a few hours of clarity. Unfortunately, patients build up a tolerance to this potion when it is used too frequently.
Empathy Potion
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
3 tears of the misunderstood party
juice of 2 ripe strawberries
2 pinches crushed bark of a dead pine tree
juice of 1 fig[/i]
This potion was originally used by mothers and teachers when one child was bullying another. When ingested, it allowed the bully to see things from their victim's perspective and experience their emotions. It can also be used if there's someone you "just don't understand" or slipped into someone's drink if they're being a jerk and refuse to see things your way.
Relationship Booster
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
2 mL blood of both parties
3 tears from each party
5 mL orchid infusion
1 dried and crushed iris bulb[/i]
This potion is taken by two people simultaneously in order to build trust and reinforce existing relationships. It is not geared toward romantic relationships, though couples have used it to become friends in addition to being lvoers. For best friends or close family members, this is the ultimate act of bonding.
Humility Potion
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
1/2 litre pong water
soil from the base of a myrrh tree
1 tbsp dried sage
1/2 spoiled pomegranite
ashes of 2 narcissus flowers
1 pinch dried linden leaf[/i]
Perhaps a nicer and longer lasting alternative to the Beauty-to-Beast potion, the Humility Potion was created to deflate over-inflated egos. Dosing must be precise or it can cause severe depression.
Truth Potion
LEVEL 7 - DIFFICULT
1 tsp ash of burnt snapdragon
2 mL daisy infusion
3 mL bluebell infusion
2 pinches crushed birch leaves[/i]
A tool of sorcerer interrogators during the war, truth potion does just what it says - it forces the person who ingests it to answer questions truthfully. Strong-willed people can often resist the urge to speak or twist their words so they are accurate but deceptive.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Mood[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Calming Potionem
LEVEL 3 - SIMPLE
7 mL lavender infusion
3 tbsp crushed alyssum
1 pinch dried tobacco
1 pinch dried sweetgrass
Used to help calm an individual whether it be from nervousness, fear, anger, trauma or shock.
Odium Potionem

Causes intense hatred within someone.
Liquid Courage
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
2 mL sea water
6 mL ragweed infusion
1 tsp crushed aspen leaves
2 pinches soil from the base of an oak tree[/i]
For those who need to face their fears or know they are going into a terrifying situation, a little liquid courage might just do the trick. Keep in mind, though, that sometimes a bit of fear is good. It can lead to reckless decisions and actions if you have no fear. Soldiers drinking liquid courage were said to walk straight into the midst of enemy territory, not even fearful when they were torn to pieces.
Liquor Felicitas
LEVEL 2 - BASIC
1 mL stream water
1 mL honey
3 mL mango juice
6 mL hawthorne infusion
3 strawberry leaves[/i]
Causes immense happiness within someone.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Memory[/font][/size][/blockquote]
[/i]
Due to Memory spells being more reliable, accurate and less dangerous (although still dangerous in their own right) Memory Potions are no longer used as often. But hey, maybe you have more skill with Potions than Charms and Curses...whatever your reason of wanting to brew one of these particularly difficult and dangerous potions, here:
Study Potion
LEVEL 6 - MEDIUM
5 mL infusion of banyan leaves
3 tbsp crushed wheat
1 pinch ash tree shavings
When taken before studying and before a test, this potion allows students to remember more information and do better on exams. Many teachers forbid its usage.
Memory Erasing Potion
LEVEL 10 - COMPLEX
3 mL swamp water
2 tsp ash of plane laed
1 mL infusion of cobra skin
1 mL tears or blood of recipient
1 hair of a soul faerie[/i]
A very tricky potion that will erase the consumer's memory. It one of the potions that relies heavily on the right balance of ingredients, the way it's brewed and you must speak the correct incantation of what you wish it to erase whilst brewing it. Mistakes with this potion could be disastrous.
"Forget Me Not"
LEVEL 8 - DIFFICULT
1 mL mother's milk
4 mL infusion of forget-me-nots grown at the base of a willow tree
2 mL olive juice
1 tsp crushed strawberry leaves
and EITHER:
1 drop original memory potion
OR
20 mL recipient's blood[/i]
This potion is used to retrieve memories lost or erased through magic. It will not however, return memories until the subconscious allows it. It also doesn't work to help cure amnesia caused by brain damage or non-magic related accidents.
[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
"Other"[/font][/size][/blockquote]
This is where other potions that don't fit into any of the categories above go.
Stasis Potion
LEVEL 9 - COMPLEX
1L swamp water
5mL honey
3 drops vampire blood
2 feathers from a dead crow
2g soil from the base of an oak tree
Will keep anything placed in it in stasis, preserving it anywhere from a few days to a few years, depending on the strength of the brewer. Primarily used to preserve foods and plants, it has, in extreme cases, also been used to keep gravely injured people in stasis until they are able to reach medical care.
if your character has created a potion fill out the form below to have it added. If you think your potion does not fit into any of our catergories then you may create a new one but that must be approved by an admin to be put on the list. We will then add an appropriate level to it based on the difficulty of the potion.
