“Everything alchemical from potions to poisons - just do make sure to read the label before quaffing, hm?„
Overview[edit | edit source]
The Velveteen Elixir is an apothecary owned by Stylin' Horst. It occupies the whole second floor of the same building as Danthelon's Dancing Axe. Unlike other locations, it is marked on the map simply as "Alchemical and potions shop", and only interacting with the sign above the door prompts the real name of the establishment.
The shop actually consists of two parts: the salesroom, where Horst resides, and a separate storage room, available if going through and past the shop, or climbing up the ladder at X: -5 Y: 152.
Inside the shop there are many cases with Bottle Rack-type containers, as well as several display cases. Although all are red-outlined, looting is still possible and arguably worth the effort. Unlike most other game locations, bottle racks in The Velveteen Elixir are not empty; all of them contain either random potions or elixirs (from Uncommon to Very Rare) or from 2 to 5 random alchemical ingredients. Some resources can be looted also from the shelves in the small side room, separated by curtains.
Also, there are several books concerning alchemical recipes laying around; two contain random recipes, while others are constant.
When speaking with Horst, the proprietor proposes the player character get a lungful of the unique scent that fills his shop. The latter may then react in several ways, and choosing any of the following options grants approval from party companions:
- Player character: Glorious! Those are some heady top notes.

The separate storage room outside can be lockpicked to enter (requires a 
DC 10 Sleight of Hand check). Otherwise, the 
key to it can be pickpocketed from Horst. Inside the player character can find a fair amount of alchemical ingredients, including those rarely encountered throughout the game (
Behir Scales and 
Xorn Scales). Also, in the Wooden Chest they can find two potions and some gold.
