Potion Of Water Breathing

Name

Potion of Water Breathing

Use

To breathe underwater for long periods of time.

Description

This potion was invented as a way for people to stay underwater unassisted for more than the amount of time allowed by Gillyweed.

Effects

Allows the user to breathe underwater.

Antidote

Wears off after two hours, twice the amount of time that Gillyweed lasts.

(Key) Ingredients

• 3 strands unicorn haur
• 1 pinch gillyweed, minced
• 1/2 cup lake water
• 1/3 cup well water
• 1 sprite's tear
• 1 globule spit
• 2 ice cubes

Potion Level

Level 1

Directions

Bring the well water to a rolling boil and add one unicorn hair. Allow to boil about two minutes. Reduce to a simmer and add the lake water. Bring back to a boil and add another of the unicorn hair and then spit immediately into the potion. This should cause the potion to become a light putrid green. Reduce again to a simmer though a bubble should pop about every thirty seconds or so. After around five minutes add the gillyweed and stir five times counter-clockwise BEFORE adding the last unicorn. Bring the potion back to a boil for ten minutes. It should now be a nice teal in color. Remove the cauldron from the fire and drop in one ice cube, then a sprite's tear, and then the last ice cube. The outside of the cauldron should feel cool to the touch now. Bottle and stopper, storing at room temperature. Should make two bottles. Use within a month.

Other information

Can only be used by person who spit in the potion - otherwise no results will occur.
