DECOCTIONS
Brewed from the remains of magical beings dissolved in a powerful semi-magical acid, Decoctions infuse those who drink them with the powers of whatever being they were made from. Make no mistake - Decoctions smell and taste quite foul and are rarely consumed by anyone but adventurers looking for every edge they can find in their quests. A Decoction can't be taken unwillingly or quickly; it requires at least 5 minutes of intentional consumption to get the substance down and benefit from it.
Unlike most alchemy items, Decoctions do not have a Rank. The effect simply is what it is. Because they are so uncommonly used outside adventuring circles, it's rare to find Decoctions for sale in any alchemy shop (nor are many shopkeepers interested in purchasing them).
