 :* '''Bat (live)''': Required for [[Darkness, 15 ft. radius (spell)|darkness 15 ft. radius]] and [[Wizard Eye (spell)|wizard eye]] spells. Bats are associated with nocturnal vision and supernatural sight, making them a fitting ingredient for spells involving darkness and remote viewing.

It consists chiefly of finely ground elemental mercury mixed with a base, often honey, sugar or licorice, to form a pill or paste. This substance is part of the broader category of "mercurial medicines," used extensively to purge toxins and restore balance to the body's humours.  A treatment for madness and against charm spells, as it clenses the body and mind of impurities.
