Healing Potion
powerful healing potions
Standard restorative that cannot repair Tagg's symbiotic damage but is essential to the transplant attempt.
Story so far
Juice Box uses healing potions as the measure of how bad Louis's situation is: the chest could be ripped open and the heart and lungs taken, but no healing potion will fix that. He would instantly die.
Once the transplant plan is agreed, though, potions become the plan's backbone. In Fleshmancer form she states that they will need powerful healing potions and a chest spreader, and Donut answers that she still has Mordecai's Special Brew on her.
Role
Both the limit of conventional medicine here and a required component of the surgery.
Relationships
Juice Box — Rules them out for the injury and then requires them for the surgery.
Mordecai's Special Brew — The specific potent brew available for the operation.
Louis — The patient they must keep alive through the swap.
