A vial taken in small doses during the day, alleviates these symptoms. If you drink an entire vial, for 1 hour you get a +2 [[circumstance bonus]] on Fortitude saving throws against effects that inflict the [[nauseated]] or [[sickened]] condition. If you drink a vial of it while suffering from the nauseated or sickened condition, you may immediately roll another saving throw (with the +2 bonus) against the effect; you may gain this particular benefit only once per day. Drinking a vial (whether over the course of a day or all at once) usually turns your tongue black for about a day, though this is a harmless side effect. | ||

A destroyed trap will always trigger if it has not been disarmed by the skill check, and the trap's components cannot be reset or salvaged for future use. | ||
