Repeat after me: MAKE. YOUR. POTIONS. IN. PILL. FORME!Pills are ancient, they predate Egypt! We made pills better in medieval Europe by putting them inside purified nontoxic silver to boost power, we don't do that anymore because it's too expensive.Whole reason why we take pills and don't drink medicine is because any medicine is just 0.1% active ingredients, putting it inside a pill is more efficient, making it a drink is wasteful.Realistically in DND, if potions were real, they'd kill adventurers, all over the Adventures Guild you'd see newspapers like:>SSS-rank barbarian killed in the Dungeon because drinking healpot takes too long!>LVL 99 thief killed in the Dungeon because he choked on manapot... it went down the wrong hole!>The Hero killed in the Dungeon because he tripped down stairs and broke all pots!Potions? Not even once! Pills are the right way.
>>97835768And the chocolate coating makes it go down easier!
>>97835768>>97835837It's this one actually: >>97836335The liquid nature of potions is a feature: you drink the potion and it's immediately available to your body; readily absorbing into the mucous membrane of your guts. You make a pill and the pill's casing has to be broken down, digested, and your little microbes have to circulate it through various systems 'till it gets to your body. If I could, the potion and the pill are both perfectly practical, but they serve different medical applications:-The potion is best for immediate use despite the complications and expenses regarding storage, dosage, etc.. You wouldn't even necessarily need to consume the potion: getting it on your skin, pouring it on a wound, may be sufficient. Butt-chugging a potion would also have immediate effects. Likewise, in some circumstances; a potion could be theoretically thrown or splashed onto an ill person.-The pill is superior in terms of shelf-life, transportation, storage, is infinitely cheaper, and has the benefit of delayed use. Magical pills would be more practical for long journeys away from society and would be of better use to normal people. Furthermore, the fact the pill takes 30 minutes to 2 hours means pills can be taken preventively: your adventurer pops a pill in anticipation of poison, disease, or massive damage.
>>97835768Seems interesting. I could see it being a more expensive alternative (with the purified silver), but have the advantage of making it quicker to use than a potion. But in any instance where you have time to sit down and bandage your wounds, a potion is cheaper and just as effective. Works well as a way to add more depth to alchemy as a system, where there's now an extra balancing act between utility and cost.
>>97836335>>97837011Maybe a reduced or delayed effect in exchange for ease of use, like requiring a faster action type rather than a full one? It also takes up much less space and you don't have glass bottles with liquid sloshing around.
>>97836755Doesn't apply to healing

>mimimi, humans don't have their own feature, mimimi, we have to invent somethingNecromancy right here. When was the last time you saw non-human necromancer, lich or vampire? That's right, they practically don't exist because other races are simply inferior when it comes to necromancy and those non-human undead are so pathetic that everyone forgets about their existence in 5 minutes . Except for that one orc, but even he understood that he was worthless and therefore got himself a human body to finally become a full-fledged lich. So yes, here is your feature humans - necromancy, you know that I am right, you can't run away from the truth forever.

Been thinking a lot about this>So the warp, as the realm of souls, originally was a creation of the old ones as a weapon against the necrontyr in the war of heaven. It allowed not only a means for the Aeldari and Krorks to use psychic powers, but also cheat death and allow them to respawn infinitely. >But after the war in heaven the warp is destabilized due to the negative emotions, death, and general usage. There's no more old ones to fix it either.>Now the "warp" sends those same negative emotions at the Aeldari who in turn start going crazy. They start doing their murder orgies, but it's not really fair to blame them as they are influenced by the warp. The same thing is known to happen to human psykers as well. The warp make psykers, especially untrained ones, crazy and emotional. In long terms it uses them to gain more power and access to realspace. REMEMBER THIS.>This creates a feedback loop where the the negative emotions make the mortals crazy and in turn have the negative emotions to fuel the warp. Ultimately resulting in slaanesh. khorne nurgle and tzeentch are likely started in the war in heaven, but finished during humanity's early era when human psykers start showing up.Con

>>97835185It sorta just happens between games since that's where BW leaves the Protoss at. Their society has essentially collapsed twice over, first with the Conclave being destroyed on Aiur then with Raszagal being killed in Brood War. Hell one of the Zerg missions in BW has you more or less blow up the biggest city on Shakuras.The Protoss basically didn't HAVE anywhere else to progress. Artanis was their only big leader left, with Selendis being his only significant lieutenant if we consider her as the BW Executor.Protoss kinda got written into a hole by getting slammed hard in their SC campaign and then being the first campaign in BW, letting the Terran and Zerg campaigns walk over them.
