Wine while retaining its age and rich depth, will lose any imperfections such as bruising, cloudiness or spoilage. The once-murky or overripe wine will be restored to its former clarity, with its flavour becoming smooth and vibrant, no longer tainted by the passage of time or poor storage. For ales and beer, the transformation is equally impressive: these beverages will take on a lightness and refreshing crispness, reminiscent of the delicate, seasonal brews made in late fall, with a subtle balance of malt and hops that is clean and full-bodied. They will gain a newfound clarity, texture and vibrancy, with the complex notes of the brew shining through as if freshly crafted.
The taste of things will be rich, fresh and wholesome, comparable to the finest guestkitchen fare. However, the food will still require proper cooking to bring out the full flavour.
Reverse
The reverse of this spell, putrefy, transforms food and beverages into something utterly inedible. It not only rots the contents, making them unsuitable for consumption, but also makes everything eaten or drunk mildly poisonous, causing 2-4 points of damage and potentially killing weaker individuals.
Bringing the Spell into Play
When used tactically, the Putrefy spell can be discharged precisely, so that it affects food or drink just as someone is about to consume it. However, those about to eat or drink are entitled to a Wisdom check as they detect the rotting odour emanating from the food in their hands or from the glass or bottle approaching their lips. If the check fails, the food or drink will be consumed, causing the victim to choke, gasp, suffer damage and spend at least two combat rounds attempting to spit the food out. During these two rounds, the victim will attack at -2 to hit and suffer a -2 penalty to their armour class due to their distress.
