Description Pouring this potion into or onto any poisoned food or drink – or directly into a vial of poison – will immediately disguise the smell and taste of the poison so that it cannot be detected by cursory observation (i.e. the Alchemy skill).


The poison, and this potion, can still be detected by analysis in a laboratory or by magic (e.g. the spell Identify Materials).

Drinking this potion has no effect (i.e. it cannot be used to disguise the fact that the victim has been poisoned).

Skill Poisoner
