Potions Test Lab

** Potion Test Lab Sessions are still under progress **

Each term, Art and I will be holding 1-2 test lab sessions. These sessions are sort of a replacement for homework or, if we don't have time at the end of class, a time for you and your characters have fun with trying different potions.

Art will have 2-3 potions on display, and we may or may not tell you what potion they are. If we DON'T tell you (IC) that is so that your character can try the potion and try to identify what it is. Of course if we DO tell you, then they will know what to expect.

These sessions are NOT worth any points, they are COMPLETELY optional, and they are a chance for you to have fun with your character and fellow classmates/staff/faculty, to develop stories with your character, and to get to know them more.

Structure is whatever you want it to be! If you just want to come and watch people take potions, that's cool. If you want to go absolutely CRAZY with posting side effects, that's cool. If you only want to do one big post, or 50 little posts, that's cool. If you only have time to post once, that's cool. If you haven't attended any lessons, that's cool, COME AND TRY!

There are two elements to these test labs. You can do one or the other, or both.
  1. INGESTING the potion - obviously your character will try the potion and RP the effects
  2. THEORETICAL - Art will provide each student with a worksheet that they can complete, so basically they are 'analysing' the potion. The answers you and your character put down are completely up to you. You can let your imagination go wild, there are no right or wrong answers.
