Potions
Potions are created by herbologists using plant-based extracts. Potions may or may not be magic based, but they always have an effect which to the layman, usually appears magical, even if it can be explained by purely non-magical means. Even when magic is used to create potions, the magic builds upon existing properties of the plant derived extracts.
In the following tables, the *starred columns would typically be known only to Herbologists.

Finding Potions
Potions are usually stored in vials and are usually labelled by their creators. However, there are no standard methods of labeling, and even the names of potions are not standardized. When finding potions among loot, the GM can be creative for how to deal with potion identification. A perception roll at Difficulty 10, allows the character to differentiate between a potion or a poison. Potions typically have a slightly sweet or floral aroma, whereas poisons are typically pungent or bitter smelling.
