Typhon's Brew
Introduction
Most preparation of Setite alchemy begin with this magical, vitae-laced beer. A lector-priest who does not know how to create Typhon's Brew can forget about pursuing further knowledge of alchemy. This beer sustains ghouls as if it were true vampiric vitae. Vampires can drink it too. By itself, Typhon's Brow has no other properties. It cannot be used to Embrace a mortal, nor to blood bond the imbiber: The brewing process negates this aspect of the vitae.
System: Brewing the Typhon's brew takes a full month, beginning and ending at the dark of the moon. For every gallon brewed, the alchemist includes one blood point's worth of his own vitae. The brewing process multiplies the vitae, so that a ghoul can gain one blood point per quart of the magic beer. Vampires, however, gain only one blood point per gallon consumed - the same rate as in brewing the beer. For vampires, the beer's magic is limited to the fact that they can drink it at all without heaving it up seconds later. They can even get drunk on it, and suffer a hangover later.
