Physical Description

Dragonspittle appears as a thick, green slime which is usually stored in crude glass bottles or ceramic jars sealed with wax or corks. These containers are fragile and usually quite large, storing as much as two gallons of the alchemical substance. Dragonspittle is very sticky.

History

Dragonspittle is an ogre weapon and was likely devised by an ogre or orcish wizard or shaman centuries ago. The recipe for creating this dangerous alchemical substance has been distributed far and wide among ogrish and orcish shamans, wizards and warrior. It is known that Dragonspittle potions were used at the fall of the Citadel and probably predates even that.

Enchantment

Dragonspittle is a magical and alchemical creation. It combines a careful mix of volatile ingredients with orcish sorcery. Dragonspittle is a thick, sticky jelly that burns fiercely when exposed to air. It is usually contained in fragile glass bottles that are thrown. When the glass container shatters, the Dragonspittle explodes, sending globs of the burning jelly everwhere. Dragonspittle is enchanted such that is expands greatly and the individual droplets and globs will flow across any surface they come in contact with. Dragonspittle is very effective at starting huge fires quickly. It burns fiercely for several minutes and almost nothing short of magic can extinquish it.

Notes

None.
