(Early Access) Tonic of Ardent Might
🕑 Added 2022-01-26 23:16:59 +0000 UTCHello, dear patrons! As we've said a few days ago, the next two shinies will be collaborations. This one is a joint effeort between us and Ari Pockily Homebrew - @aripockily_homebrew on Instagram!
We'll supply you with his Tonic of Frigid Intellect in a while, so, for now, behold Cauldron Crust's Tonic of Ardent Might:
"Cauldron Crust is a Kobold who was left behind in the wake of a nest invasion by pesky adventurers who forced the litter's Dragon Queen to move her hoard. The party took pity of this smallest and last Kobold of the litter, naming him Cauldron Crust - all that is left after a meal is prepared.
The party eventually died fightning a insumountable evil and the Kobold grew in the alleys of the capital, eventually being picked-up by a con artist called Xan Rockman due to his deft fingers and great sense of smell.
Xan was a grifter, but also an artificer - creating inventive artifacts to trick his clients. Cauldron Crust followed suit and learned from Rockman and, eventually, set on to make his own cons, heists and darings.
After a few years, Crust found his way back to Xan in a distant realm, both pennyless. They concoted a plan to find riches - their Greates Con! Each drafted a brew which would empower those wo drank it, but would also somewhat ail them. Their golden ticket was the following: if you drank from the other grifter's tonic, you'd be cured from the first ailment, but would get a new one which could be cured by the first potion.
Their flawless plan did not work. People would rather curse you after your beverage makes them ill.".
Thanks a lot for your support, patrons!
