This ceramic amphora is unique - for the moment.
There's more than a few celestials looking for it,
though.
The Amphora of Dionysus essentially turns water into
wine - wholesale. Using a variant of the Corporeal
Song of Succor, the artifact will change up to 10
gallons of water into extremely good wine for every 2
Essence spent. The Essence will be automatically
subtracted from the artifact's user (who doesn't need
to be able to control his or her Essence, or even know
what Essence is). The wine will turn back into water
after six hours: as a beneficial side effect, this
means that a hangover will not occur.
Unfortunately, there's an even greater inimical side
effect. The relic can also 'bestow' the Song of
Bedlam (see separate entry). The Song of Succor
variant actually only costs 1 Essence: the other is
used to fuel the Song of Bedlam, which will take
effect on a random drinker of the wine. As the Song
of Bedlam requires 3 Essence to work, the effect isn't
going to be immediately obvious - but when it does
finally go off, the results can be messy...
