Araj will brew unique [[elixirs]] as payment for drawing blood from the [[True Soul|True Souls]] in the party for her research. Each character may give blood only once, incurring 1d3 damage in the process. The effects of these potions are generally themed on the [[Races|race]], and, in the case of [[Dragonborn|Dragonborns]], subrace of the character giving blood.

With a {{Ability check|History|14}}, knowledge of [https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/House_Oblodra House Oblodra] will allow the player to realize that Araj doesn't want True Soul blood, but [[Illithid]] blood specifically – an especially illicit subject for a drow to research. If this insight is said to her, Araj will pay 200 gold for each subsequent blood donation, alongside the normal elixir.
