Potions are medicinal substances that can enhance or treat the body of living creatures.

Background

Potions are a common commodity used by YGGDRASIL players. Healing potions were introduced to the New World through the displaced YGGDRASIL players. In YGGDRASIL, healing potions were usually made through skills that were only available through certain job classes, or by casting the desired spells on the appropriate ingredients.

Due to the vitality of the game's potions and the red color which they display, these elixirs are also considered to be the Blood of God by the inhabitants of the New World. While so, knowledge about the method on manufacturing potions like the Minor Healing Potion for example, were even considered to be lost to the annals of history.

Types of Potions

Potions come in various types and uses. In the New World there are three basic types of potions:

  • The first is made using only herbs. This type shows its effects gradually and will only strengthen a human's base ability. Its effects are minimal but inexpensive.
  • The second is made from herbs and magic. This kind of potion applies it effects more quickly than the former but still requires time. If there is a moment of respite after a battle, most adventurers will use this type of recovery potion.
  • The third type are potions created with nothing but magic. It is made by injecting mana into alchemic liquid. The effects of this kind of potion are immediate and quite expensive.

YGGDRASIL potions, however are manufactured under different conditions. In order to make a potion, firstly, the Zolue Solution must be added into the bottle. The potion brewer would then activate their special skill in order to infuse their magic into the bottled solution. During that time, a YGGDRASIL coin will automatically disappear as payment for cost of production.

Abilities

The abilities of a potion depends on its properties and specific function. More importantly, there is a way of managing and using ingredients from YGGDRASIL and in the New World without the requirement for a game's potion creation skill viably needed to do so anymore. As a result, the experiment had created something otherworldly like the "purple" potion that is different than both the New World's "blue" potion or YGGDRASIL's "red" potion.

Trivia

  • Red Potions are called God's Blood in the New World, due to both of their color and high healing potency.
  • There is no need to ingest the potions. They would work as long as a certain amount of the liquid made contact with the body.
