[12 Days of Giftmas] Cocoa Concoction (Patreon)

Cocoa Concoction

Potion, very rare

Component: phial of plant sap

Incensed by the foul taste of most potions, the mage-chefs of Gastronomia decided to set in motion a flavour revolution, proudly espousing the belief that “a potion’s taste should be as magical as its effects”. Showcasing their expertise in both the alchemical and culinary arts, they’ve created a collection of elixirs inspired by beloved drinks, starting with a creamy hot chocolate.

This potion is always magically warm. While holding the bottle containing it, you have advantage on Constitution saving throws made to resist the effects of extreme cold.

Steaming Hot. When you drink this potion, you gain resistance to cold damage for 1 hour. During that time, you can use a bonus action to exhale a small plume of hot vapour at a creature within 5 feet of you. The creature must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw, taking 2d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Taste the Painbow. For 1 hour after you drink this potion, the rainbow glow of its marshmallows can be seen in your stomach, through your skin and any clothing or armour you’re wearing. Once during this time, you can use an action to stop the glowing and spew a rainbow of saccharine radiance from your mouth in a line 60 feet long and 5 feet wide. Each creature in the area must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 4d6 radiant damage and is poisoned until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage and isn’t poisoned.
