Potions of invulnerability were magic potions of warding.[8]

Description[]

Potions of invulnerability were typically housed within an iron flask.[7] The syrupy concoction within these potions resembled liquefied iron [8] and had a tart taste to it.[7] The potion exuded a strange odor. It was so strong that it could be smelled coming from a tightly-sealed vial.[6]

Powers[]

Upon drinking a potion of invulnerability, a creature would be rendered resistant to all forms of damage for the following minute.[8]

Variants[]

Paste of invulnerability
The people of Serôs had a thick, gelatinous paste version of this potion,[10] suitable for use in their underwater environment. Like other pastes of Serôs, a paste of invulnerability consisted of kelp and other viscous substances. It was stored in either clamshells or flexible tubes made from eelskin.[11]

History[]

According to legends the potion, was first concocted for use by a king named Thorkat.[7]
