that could not be penetrated by hand, vanished, parted, scooped up, transfigured, or otherwise made to change its nature in any way. It could only be drained away by drinking, and even though it isn’t immediately fatal, it induces a burning, insatiable thirst in the drinker, severe pain and weakness, hallucinations that force one to relive their worst fears, and a sense of intense despair and hopelessness, thus its name.”(翡翠药水,也称为绝望剂,是一种发光的绿色药水,无法用手渗透、无法消失、舀起、变形……或以任何方式改变其质。受害者只能通过饮用来使其消失。尽它不会立即致命,翡翠药水会让饮者产生无法满足的口渴感、极度的疼痛和虚弱、迫使饮者通过幻觉重温他们最深的恐惧,并导致最强烈的绝望,它因此而得名。)
