Description To use this potion, it must be poured into or onto a lock or other simple mechanism. Thirty seconds thereafter, the mechanism is broken; this will usually cause a lock to open (unless specially crafted to break in a “locked” position).


As with the Open/Lock spell, opening a lock this way does not count as using the proper key, and may e.g. trigger a connected trap.
