Von Kreutzdorf's Requests for September 1215

Ladies and Gentlemen of Travance,

Von Kreutzdorf's Apothekarium is pleased to continue to provide potions and flasks for your consumption.

Flasks, are listed below:

Flask of Strength enhances your physical strength making you stronger than the average human.
Flask of Defense increases the body's endurance to match that of an average ogre.
Flask of Healthfulness increases the body's endurance by a full ten percent
Flask of Efficiency brings out your innate power in a more flowing motion, providing a more proficient casting or crafting.
Flask of the Screaming Death allows communication during both serious and critical injury
Flask of Mental Resistance lessens mental effects to last ½ the time and ½ the mental damage
Flask of Speed allows all movement abilities to be increased by a full half
Flask of Accuracy adds two dagger strikes of damage to all physical ranged attacks

The additional benefit of these Flasks is that the effects last the entirety of the Baronial Feast, not fading after a few minutes like many alkhemikal creations. Note though that while the effects are powerful, the ingredients used within each separate Flasks recipe do not combine well, so only a single Flask may be consumed during a Baronial Feast. To consume a second Flask will gain you no benefit and may result in intestinal distress. The cost of a Flask at the moment is 20 gold pieces. The increased cost from normal potions is due to both the length of time the Flask lasts as well as the larger amount of time and effort necessary to produce them.

Additionally, as I try to do before every time I attend the Feast, I put up this missive to give my loyal customers a chance to let me know ahead of time what their various alkhemikal needs are prior to the Feast.

Please either write your order at the bottom of this parchment or send to me a private letter detailing your requirements.

Also, if you do place an order, seek me out to collect it. I am very busy and cannot always track you down. I am usually in the Dragon's Claw Inn at Market Faire.

Sincerely,

A Flask of Efficiency Please

I have a feeling I will have need of a flask of strength this moon - but, question, does it just enhance my ability to pick things up and put them down, or do my strikes strike harder as well? How many dagger-strikes does it increase my ability by, if so?

Please note - regardless of the answer, I'm buying. I just would like to know the details of what I'm sinking my hard-earned money into.

It makes you as strong again as one man. And yes you do strike harder.

A flask of Defense please and thank you.

I'll need a flask of efficiency. Friday evening is preferred.
