Potion of Revealed Silhouettes

by Frazer 👁 190 views

A small, perfectly cylindrical glass vial filled with pale, shimmering liquid that glows faintly at the edges. The liquid swirls with motes of light and carries a crisp scent of mint and ozone. The stopper is wax-sealed with a tiny emblem of an eclipsed eye.

Invisible Detection For 10 minutes after drinking this potion, you can see invisible creatures within 60 feet as faint outlines. Invisible beings appear as translucent silhouettes with a pale blue tint, allowing you to perceive their general location, size, and motion. You cannot discern precise features or identities through the outlines; you still need normal senses to identify them. The effect ends early if you are unconscious or if the duration ends.

Lore

This potion was crafted by a blind diviner who learned to read the world by what remained unseen. It was said to grant a hunter the ability to track invisible foes by the faint outlines they left in the air. A merchant once traded this vial for a map said to reveal hidden vaults.

History

The formula was first brewed in a hidden apothecary beneath a ruined cathedral. It passed through the hands of a courier who used it to unmask a cult of invisibles, and the recipe was later burned into memory by a survivor who learned to guard it zealously.
