Agate

Ingredient, Gemstone

A gemstone used in magical and alchemical work, associated with truth and immunity to poison.

From the book

Agate carries the virtues of truth and immunity to poison. Two carats of powdered agate make a Potion of Detect Lies that works within 20 ft. Combined with a dram of unicorn horn and a carat of jade it becomes a Potion of Immunity to Poison, which protects against every kind of poison but leaves the drinker 10% likely to fumble or trip during combat, running or other hard exertion. Like any gem it may also be one of the seven powdered stones in a potion base.
