Description:
An extremely beautiful bottle made of brass and high pressurized glass. An ever-swirling liquid with everchanging colors inside the vial looks like a small galaxy inside of the bottle. The cork, made of gold and brass, splendidly shining because of its quality can be uncorked. The second the cork is retired, the liquid takes one specific color and becomes tangible and sharp, like a blade. Its powers and effects depend on which color it chose to come out with.
Infused. The wielder has a +1/2*/3* bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. They also become proficient with a shortsword.
Alchemist's knowledge. While attuned to this potion, the user becomes proficient with Alchemist's supplies and gains advantage on any checks regarding Alchemy.
Also, this potion can be worked on with Alchemist's Supplies with a success on the DC.
For 1000gp and DM-selected ingredients, upgrade Infused from +1 to +2*, DC 20 (d20 + proficiency modifier).
For another 2000gp and DM-selected ingredients, upgrade infuse from +2* to +3*, which requires beating a DC 25 (d20 + proficiency modifier).
On a failure below 10, the opposite happens and the weapon decreases or simply fails to update. (From +2* to +1, from trying to go up to +2* to stay +1)
A galaxy of effects. When the user uncorks this potion, they have to roll 1d10, the bonus effect and type of damages depend on the result. This effect lasts 15 minutes and can be used up to three (3) times per day. Refreshes and refills the bottle full of liquid at dawn.

- Lime. The weapon deals 1d6+1/2*/3* poison damage.

- Dark. The weapon deals 1d6+1/2*/3* necrotic damage. The user steals the life essence of their target, healing half the amount of damage dealt with by this attack. The third time on the same target automatically renders them [Tooltip Not Found] of the user.

- Green. The weapon deals 1d6+1/2*/3* acid damage. The acid pierces the target's armor and shield giving them a minus 2 on their AC until the end of their turn.

Corrosion can't be dispelled and needs to be fixed at a forge.
- Magenta. The weapon deals 1d6+1/2*/3* psychic damage. Using the power of the abyssal galaxy inside of the vial, the target must succeed on a Constitution (DC 12 + proficiency bonus) saving throw or be stunned until the end of their turn.
- On a 10, roll 2d10, and for the rest of the duration, the liquid will take two colors instead of one for the next attack. Once it's done, the user must roll 1d6; 1-3 = first color rolled, 4-6 = 2nd color rolled. Rolling another 10 with this ability equals a fail and the only non-10 score will be taken in count. Rolling two (2) 10 makes the user able to manually choose the colors they want.
"This magical flask is not what it seems,
All those powers are like magical dreams.
But some people are so fascinated they are mindlessly led,
To steal, to uncork and drink, not knowing they will end up dead."
