Snake Oil (Patreon)

Potion, rarity varies

Snake oil is an unreliable concoction of alchemy, druidic knowledge, and luck. When found, the potion's rarity is random: Common (90 percent) or Rare (10 percent). Only an identify spell or similar magic can determine the rarity of the potion.

When you use an action to drink the potion, roll a d6 to determine its effects based on the rarity of the potion. Unless it says otherwise, an effect remains for 1 hour. If the potion is a rare variant, it gains both the Common and Rare effects of the potion.

"Get your snake oil here! Only the finest snake oil!"

"Is the kind of oil that does nothing, or is the kind of oil that's actually magic?"

"Yes!"
