c_iulusium is an opaque, soapy violet liquid derived from the heart of a golem.
Mixing darcydodollium with c_iulusium causes a violent chemical reaction, producing a translucent amber potion which gives the user the power of instantaneous healing.

what's a golem? Instantaneous healing is good :)

Instantaneous healing is very good. That's so cool.

A golem is an animated statue of a man, in short. I think it's originally from Jewish legend, but it comes up other places these days. The Jewish one had a word placed in its mouth, IIRC. (livredor or someone can correct me if I'm wrong.)

The OED says: "In Jewish legend, a human figure made of clay, etc., and supernaturally brought to life; in extended use, an automaton, a robot." The etc. is bronze or other materials, I think. :)

In the original legend, set in Prague, it's *just* clay. It wouldn't have a heart, I think.

cool!
