Potion of darkvision. For real.

In "people becoming superhuman" news, a small independent research group has figured out how to give humans night vision, allowing them to see over 50 meters in the dark for a short time.

That's 150 feet. The D&D 60ft darkvision is obviously nerfed. And it last for several hours, so duration should be "alchemist level/minutes".

Added benefit : it has visual effects. And those effects LOOKS like a D&D spell.

And you don't have to kill a lot of people first.

Yeah. And to use it, you have to inject it *into your eyeball*.

How about... not.

Tibbetts slowly dripped 50 microliters of Ce6, an extremely low dose, into Licina's speculum-stretched eyes, aiming for the conjunctival sac, which carried the chemical to the retina.

That's not very different from what people wearing contact lens are doing every day. It's not a syringe you plunge into your eyeball.

I used to wear contacts. HATED the process, and stopped after a few years.

I can imagine applications for this, but it ain't for me.

 

[Hand of Evil]

I will wait for the contacts.

Unfortunately not a potion yet. It needs to be drinkable to be a potion. Since it could be said to be "smeared" on, it could be classified as an oil.

Good...observation.

Good...observation.

I didn't want to leave people in the dark.

Why the term 'biohacker' has not entered my lexicon until now is a total mystery to me.
