Essence of Nymph

Essence of Nymph is a fey-infused vial associated with nymphs, beauty, sensuality, revelry, and natural abundance.

The essence encourages a nymph-like outlook: desires feel more compelling to act upon, but the consumer still chooses their partners, just as nymphs do. Greater inclination to pursue those desires is not indiscriminate attraction or an obligation to act on them.

It intensifies feelings and reduces inhibitions without removing agency, compelling sexual activity, or overriding willingness. Unlike the coercive effects of the more potent forms of Herb of the Harem, its influence leaves the consumer able to choose. Heightened desire is not itself consent to any particular act.

This enchanted vial carries fey magic associated with nymphs, beauty, sensuality, revelry, and natural abundance.

**Consumable.** As an action, a creature can drink the vial. The creature must make a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is charmed for 1d6 hours, becomes sexually aroused for the same duration, and adopts a nymph-like outlook shaped by beauty, sensuality, revelry, and natural abundance. A creature that lacks sexual organs is unaffected.

At the end of each hour while the arousal lasts, the affected creature can repeat the Wisdom saving throw. On a success, the creature no longer thinks as if a nymph for 1 hour. After three successive successful saving throws, the arousal ends.

When the effect ends, the affected creature and one willing creature with whom it shared sexual intimacy during the effect gain the benefits of a long rest and each loses one level of exhaustion. This item does not compel sexual activity or override a creature's willingness.
