Remi's Potion of Ketchup

Item History

Through exhaustive research and a little random luck, our party's Wild Mage (Nalla) uncovered a legend about an apparently un-guarded White Dragon's hoard far to the north in the arctic wastes of the Krommorad. We faced many perils through this series of adventures, but none was as challenging as the lair of a group of Frost Giants. Normally we would just bypass such deathtraps, but it seems that the giants were keeping slaves....a big no-no in the eyes of our party's Paladin.

After fighting (and very nearly losing to) numerous guardians, we encountered an opulent chamber with double doors as the entrance, and two heavy wooden doors at the back of the room. To a player, this spells treasure hoard. To a DM however, it is a chance to eliminate the party's Ranger. Not ten seconds after he entered the larger of the two doors at the far end of the room, it was slammed closed and locked by a Frost Giant hiding on the other side; thus effectively leaving Doug (The Ranger) stranded. Remi (Our beloved Halfling Fighter/Thief) squeezed under the door in a vain attempt to bring Doug a potion of Gaseous Form to make a hasty escape, but it was already too late.

By this point the rest of the party was shouting "Play dead" through the door. Then the idea of a potion that makes the user appear dead came up....thus was born the Potion of Ketchup.
