Messaging

Success:

You pour your potion on the chain.
 1d100: 67 + Modifiers: 389 == 456

As the liquid coats the surface of the green imflass chain, you murmur a few words of power while gesturing over the chain.<br The liquid quickly seeps into the green imflass chain and leaves nothing behind but a faint glow.
You examine the chain closely and, though the faint glow appears to be fading rapidly, are satisfied that it is ready to take a standard tempering potion.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
You have 2 doses left.


Failure:

You pour your potion on the chain.
 1d100: 17 + Modifiers: 308 == 325

The liquid absorbs into the green imflass chain too quickly as you fumble to begin your chant and gestures, and the chain is dry in a moment's notice leaving no noticable change.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
You have 3 doses left.
