R+ - MANAPATHY POTION

Alchemical Name: Manapathy Potion

Market Region: Black Market

Market Price: 5 Gold

Alchemical Rarity: Rare+

Alchemical Information: A dangerous black-market magic amplifier that is usually a deep violet liquid with black streaks moving through it. Manapathy Potions are not normal magic boosters, they violently sharpen the user’s mana output while suppressing emotional response, creating a state where the drinker becomes detached, focused, and almost empty.

Alchemical Effect: Once consumed, the potion boosts the user’s magic while forcing them into an apathetic frenzy.

• Increases the user’s magic output by 5x.

• Lasts for 5 turns.

• The user’s emotions become heavily dulled, making fear, hesitation, guilt, pain, and attachment much harder to feel.

• The user gains tunnel vision toward their chosen enemy or threat, focusing almost entirely on destroying, stopping, or overwhelming them.

Alchemical Side Effects:

• Once the potion wears off, the user’s magic becomes weakened by 25% for 3 turns.

• The user is left extremely mentally exhausted after the effect ends.

• Drinking another Manapathy Potion before fully recovering is dangerous and causes the side effects to stack.

• Stacked use can cause longer magic weakening, emotional numbness, mana pathway strain, memory gaps, and temporary inability to tell friend from enemy during the frenzy.

• Only affects the user’s magic output. It does not increase physical stats, reaction speed, durability, stamina, spell cooldowns, or mana reserves.
