Elixir of the Bull

A drink of a peppery taste that can at times have a residual powder at the bottom of the flask, and a dark red colour. The elixir of the bull will increase one’s natural body temperature to an unhealthy degree and encourage them to sweat a dreadful amount. The benefit, is that it also dulls the senses to its pains and limitations, allowing one to lift a perhaps a third more than they should be capable of and withstand more blows before being forced into submission. A common potion made and used to give a man, or even animals, an unfair advantage in battles and competitions. Once it wears off, however, they will be drastically dehydrated and will need water nearby to prevent death. Application to the skin tends to irritate it and cause small cuts when rubbed in, doing more harm than anything else. The only power it grants through contact to the skin is a short lived burst of energy throughout the body. It almost reminds one of being jolted awake by a sudden pinch.

Instructions
Once the simpler brews to make, it is simply adding Devil’s Blemish to Dust of Dragon’s Cane in a two to one ratio. Stir well until the only dregs fill the bottom of the bottle. The only trick is it requires a long time to brew, as it must be stirred and then left to sit every day for a full week for its potency to have the intentional effects.
