Arsonist's oil was a type of magic oil that turned resistance to fire to a vulnerability.

“

It was then that Swires tossed the oil. It splattered the cambion, and all at once its skin of brilliant carmine dulled to dark, a red like cheap wine, and the fiend vented this sound of anguish I almost pitied, for its very affinity for fire was now undone.

”

Description

Arsonist's oil was a white oil, usually packed in round glass containers that could be quickly opened and applied to weapons in the heat of battle or tossed at an enemy with ease.

Powers

When a weapon coated with this oil stricken a creature or an object that possessed resistance to heat, flame, and high temperatures, such as a cambion, they immediately lost the protection from that element, becoming vulnerable to fire. The effects of this oil had no effect on those who were immune to fire.

Creation

A recipe of this elixir required a mixture of alchemical sublimate of unmelting ice mephit's frosted ears and certain types of ashes.
