A quick flavour idea that draws at the nice quirk of both [[Samurai]] and [[Pirate]] roles: they both have some of their items renamed to reflect their differing origins.

I'd love to see this expanded to [[potion of booze|potions of booze]], which I think are the prime candidate to rename for each role, as it hurts no one and can be nice to see your avatar drinking his favorite beverage.

Role names take precedence over race names.

* [http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Synthehol Synthehol] is from Star Trek, of course.
* As for the tourists... Everyone knows you can't resist the lure of these colorful drinks while on a sunny beach or in a dank dungeon. :P
* Mead was a heroic warrior drink in Old English and Viking legends.
* Mechanical beings haev to like machine oil, right? Still behaves like a potion of booze, not like a potion of oil.
* Vodka is a tough alcohol for tough orcs. Really, I just like the mental image of orcs as bitter northerners.
* [http://trueblood.wikia.com/wiki/Tru_Blood Tru blood] is a reference to the True Blood series, a synthetic blood substitute.
