"Absinthe Makes the Heart grow fonder..."
Described as a potion, Absinthe is a powerful green liquor crafted by fairies and sold only in the most upper class of taverns. Absinthe needs to be drunk in two glasses full. It is also popular to dilute it with droplets of water over a sugar cube, that is usually to counteract the usual bitter taste.
Once taken, the drinker hallucinates a green fairy and can be foretold an important random detail by them, only one detail. (The DM rolls a d20, the higher the roll, the more crucial the detail). You can attempt to drink more to gather more details but it’s a risky business. Depending on your constitution modifier, too much absinthe will cause you to take 3d4 poison damage. It usually takes after two glasses. If your constitution modifier is high enough for example, +4, you can consume four more glasses. However if it is in the negative like -1, you can only consume one glass instead of the normal two and thus you cannot obtain the hallucinogenic effect.
Absinthe is rarely sold in high class taverns and more commonly drunk in elite underground VIP bars for the most elite. It is also an expensive liquor, costing usually 2-3GP per glass. To help avoid poisoning, You can take 1 hour intervals every two glasses
