Question about the cauldron in Drakthar's Way.


Shackled City Adventure Path


Is the cauldron in room #14 a portable item? And is it's power to boil water, or to make potions?

The way it reads to me, the cauldron boils 10 gallons of water,and after an hour, evaporates, leaving only a potion of cure moderate wounds.

Since my players have a tendency to take everything that isn't bolted down, I need to know what I am getting myself into. b

All the item does is boil water.

The fact that there's a potion left over from the current contents isn't a function of the item but rather the work of the goblin alchemists.

My players sold it to Vortimax Weer, as he'd have use for it in his alchemy work.


It says "Three times per day in can boil up to 10 gallons of liquid without need of fire" so, not free creation of potions. But the prize 2500 gp, seems like a bit too much for just boiling water and a limited number of times per day.
