Fountain

Throughout Sosarian, Britannian and Serpent Islander history alike, numerous magical fountains have been found both in both the  dungeons and cities of these worlds, conferring a number of effects on those who partake of their waters.

History
In the late Age of Darkness and through the Age of Enlightenment, magical fountains were a common sight within the dungeons of the realm, and ones which could heal wounds or cure poison would often prove essential to helping explorers to survive ventures through the underground realms. Unfortunately, it was difficult to ascertain which waters would convey such benefits and which might be a source of illness or injury. Without previous charts to tell one which fountains were safe to drink from, trusting in these magical wellsprings for healing could often prove quite a gamble.

In later eras, magical fountains began to appear in the cities and wildernesses of the realm, and water as could be found which produced an even wider arrange of effects. By the early Age of Armageddon, fountains existed which could produce enhanced vision, sleep and even invisibility.

Lore
Fountains fair and fountains foul, all are found in dungeons bowel.
