Snake-Blood Wine
What players would know
Illustration (player-safe)

Snake-blood wine is a Marcher frontier custom: strong wine or grain spirit dosed with fresh snake blood, sometimes as dare, sometimes as medicine, sometimes as ritual bravado. The Empire calls it barbaric; plenty of imperial fools still try it in private.
Common rumors
- The real stuff is taken hot, not bottled.
