False Death (Herbal)

Faking one’s own death may not be the most noble way to escape those who would see it realized, but it can be remarkably effective as one – as long as this foul smelling infusion is employed.

Recipe Level: 3
Name: False Death
Effect: Appear dead to all but trained Physicians
Type: Drink
Can Be Mixed To Create a Gas Cloud: No
Required Herbs: Bittermourn, Bishop’s Weed, Dragon Tears, Periwinkle, Flax.

Drinking this mixture will put the imbiber into a state of suspended animation. To all but the well trained, the recipient appears dead. Physician: Diagnose 2 is required to tell the person is still alive; otherwise, they will appear dead.

This effect lasts for 5 minutes, during which the recipient acts as if they are under a Sleep effect, but cannot regain consciousness except by an Awakener mixture or comparable effect.
