Perhaps this page should be called "smoky and milky potions", as I don't think milky potions merit their own page, but true rumors links to milky potions. Ekaterin 13:31, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Clarification needed

Clarification is needed on the following point: does the chance of summoning only apply while unidentified, or does it still work after the potions have been identified?

Potions requiring Mitigation

The identity of the smoky potion can present the question of how to safely consume a hazardous potion. This table assumes you've already blessed them so you are not confused by booze or can voluntarily end levitation. It would seem that invisibility, polymorph and paralysis are the main headaches.
