Also of the rainbow, odorless+rat= ???

Try it.

Hopeful it will make the rat happy but not kill it, than we put in Devil Berries and you have drugs.

It was already stated that Mad Hatter gives more of a Bad Trip. Maybe heavily diluted it should work, but so do color leaves. We could additionally market diluted Hatter + devil berries as Pandora, a magical liquid that gives you special senses (read: smelling sound). Sound decent?

I can hardly believe that this has turned into a drug trafficking simulation.

I think Devil Berries are much more lucrative being used for Titan, since, well, it's something that's highly addictive and something that people actively want to buy. Maybe diluted Hatter with something that dulls its worse effects?

Diluted crying tree bark? That stops poisons.
Also, we'll need to run a clean apothecary as a front. But no one suspects us yet, so make 4 Titan and have the assistant market it.

Are drugs illegal?
I mean, they don't exist yet, so it's unlikely that there are laws against them.

Alright. So, we experiment with "Titan" and see where it goes from there? If successful, do we try to add new drugs? I think mad hatter + crying tree bark would work, but we should test that one out on rats before we think of selling it.

Catch more rats. We're running out.

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

To convince people that it's actually a cure-all, we should mix in blue root as well.
So Titan should be 1 part blue root, 2 parts devil berries, and 2 parts sweet leaf

We should probably plant some Devil Berry in our Allotment/Garden.

> Look in the book for an herb that attracts rats, and a paralyzing agent. Set up traps with those in it. If we catch random squirrels and cats, that's fine too. This way we're not wasting time hunting rats, we can just have the assistant empty and reset the traps in his first hour.

1 part devil berry would be better. It's strongly addictive; putting in too much just wastes them, since we only have 4 right now.

So 1 part blue root, 1 part devil berry, and 2 parts sweet leaf. Sounds good to me. Make two potions of this (TITAN!) plant some devil berry, look for paralyzing herbs and have the assistant make traps.
