Draught of Peace

Draught of Peace

Mind • Healing • Harmful

A potion which relieves anxiety and agitation in the drinker. Despite its name, this is an incredibly complex and finicky potion to brew. Even the slightest misstep in the process will ruin the brew and have drastic consequences. Too much of any ingredient may cause the drinker to slip into an irreversible sleep, for instance. The directions are detailed and must be followed with exacting precision. Ingredients must be added in the exact order and amounts specified; also, the potion needs to be stirred 7 times, both clockwise and anti-clockwise. Before the addition of the final ingredient, Hellebore, the temperature of the flame must be lowered and the potion allowed to simmer for a full 7 minutes. If brewed correctly, the potion will emit a silvery vapour, but the possible characteristics of a failed batch are seemingly endless. Reported signs range from green sparks, a sulfurous odour, a dark grey steam, or a cement-like consistency to a dangerous tendency to explode. • Add Powdered Moonstone until the potion turns green • Stir until the potion turns blue • Add more Powdered Moonstone until the potion turns purple • Allow to simmer until the potion turns pink • Add Syrup of Hellebore until the potion turns turquoise • Allow to simmer until the potion turns purple • Shake powdered Porcupine Quills vigorously until they are ready and then add until the potion turns red • Stir until the potion turns orange • Add more Porcupine Quills until the potion turns turquoise • Allow to simmer till the potion turns purple • Add powdered Unicorn Horn until the potion turns pink • Stir until the potion turns red • Allow to simmer until the potion turns purple • Add more Powdered Moonstone until the potion turns grey • Allow the potion to simmer until it turns orange • Add more powdered Porcupine Quills until the potion turns white
