Description

This delightfully bold elixir infuses your body with the power of potential. Unfortunately, how this potential interacts with your entire self is based upon the ebbs and flows of your aura and humors, and is...sadly unpredictable. The elixir is a bit of a gamble: when it is good, it is game-changing. When it is bad, it can also be game-changing...in different ways. Knowing the difference, and when to use the power, is the key.
When you drink the amazingly strong-tasting mixture, roll a single d20 and record the result. At any point during the duration of this effect, you MUST use that roll for a single attack roll, Initiative check, saving throw, or skill check, using the recorded result in place of a roll. This elixir cannot be used to replace a roll that has already been made; the recorded result must be used instead of a roll. Once you have used this recorded result or the duration of the mixture ends, the elixir's effect ends. You cannot have more than one instance of embrace destiny active on you at the same time.
If you do not use the moment, if you chose NOT to embrace your destiny, then the moment dissipates from your aura and humors and rips loose a piece of your Destined Self in doing so. You suffer (Circle 8 damage): 1d6+3 points of damage per character level (max 21d6+63 at character level 21) of primal (undefined damage type) damage and 1d6 points of Essence Destruction. It is generally MUCH less painful to wisely 'use up' a 'bad roll' during the duration, rather than suffer these dire consequences.
