A small, spherical vial of clear glass cradles a ruby-red liquid that seems to hold tiny, star-like motes. The cap is etched with a spiraling pattern of silver, and a faint warmth radiates from the bottle when held. Upon uncorking and drinking, a soft glow blooms within your veins, casting a warm light from beneath your skin.

Luminous Vein When you drink this potion, for 1 hour your blood glows with a soft crimson light. You shed bright light in a 5-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet. The glow is a gentle, steady illumination that helps allies see you in darkness but can reveal your location to enemies with darkvision.

Lore

The Elixir of Luminous Veins was brewed by the Lanternring Alchemists to turn a warrior’s heartbeat into a guiding beacon. It was said the glow could lead comrades through undead-haunted ruins and signal danger to friends in the dark.

History

First crafted during the Long Night by a guild of scouts known as the Lanternwatch, this elixir was traded among rangers and soldiers who fought in darkness. It became a symbol of courage, a visible pledge that a companion stood ready to protect the group.
