Common Potions, Salves, Tonics, and Oils

Potions are small amounts of drinkable liquids, usually stored in small glass, leather, or ceramic vials or bottles. Drinking a potion takes 2 seconds after it is in hand. How long it takes to draw a potion depends on where it is stored. 1 second if on a belt and easily accessible, 1d6 if in a belt pouch, 2d6 if in a backpack. This assumes an empty hand. Potions take effect immediately unless otherwise stated.

Salves are thick, mud like substances smeared over a surface. The time to apply a salve depends on the area being covered. A hand or foot takes 3 seconds, arm, leg, or head takes 6 seconds, and torso takes 10. Applying salve to a full body takes 30 seconds. This assumes nothing more than clothing is in the way – rigid armour must be doffed to apply a salve below. Salves take effect immediately unless otherwise stated.

Oils are thin liquids designed to be quickly spread over a surface. The time is one third that of a salve, rounded up. In addition, it is possible to pour an oil across a surface without spreading it by hand. It can also be poured through permeable armour to affect the person below. Oils take effect immediately unless otherwise stated.

Tonics are large amounts of liquid similar to potions. Tonics require repeat doses over a long time to take effect, and only apply their effect as long as the doses are kept up. A tonic requires a single does every day to remain in effect, and starts being effective as soon as the second dose is taken.
