Apothecaria - Background Information

Just in case anyone stumbles across this blog (or I have a senior moment and can't remember why I set this up)...this is where I am doing my journaling for the solo RPG Apothecaria (and any futures ones if I find I like this style of gaming).  I started in a hand-written journal but this darn arthritis is making it difficult to write everything I want in that journal so here we are!  This entry will be the place where I keep track of all my background information.

Familiar:  Serena the cat is my familiar and she is black with green eyes.  Her skill is Magic Eye which is awesome because it reduces the foraging value of all magic reagents by 3 (minimum of 1).  I just realized while writing this that I misread that in the beginning and reduced all reagents by 3 - oops!!  Luckily I've only gone through Spring Week 4 doing that.  That means I really need to buy a wand so I can forage for magic ingredients!

Specials:  I found an old book in the ruined library in Hero's Holler while foraging in week 3 of Spring and discovered that if I roll a D20 and get a 10 or higher I will gather double ingredients while visiting Hero's Holler!  Nice!!

Current Locales:  Forest, Loch, Mountain, Dungeon

Upgrades:  I have one garden plot at my cottage where I can forage plant reagents with a value of 8 or less - will only grow one plant per season.  Spring - planted Jumpkin seed I got as a gift from Elyn - they are a three star plant and the flesh can be boiled for stomach issues and the seeds can be crushed for cold issues.  I can also carve the rest of it into a nice decoration to scare my neighbors.

Tools:  Mortar & Pestle (crush), Cauldron (boil), and Alembic (distilling)
