Injection for Corpses

An Injection for Corpses is the stronger grave treatment: each one takes red skulls off a body and adds as many white ones, 1, 2 or 3 of each by grade. You make it at the Formulation Bench from a Melted Fat, a Preservative and a Comet’s Tail, with Anatomy mastery 8, after Embalming III (150 red, 150 blue), a technology on the resurrection branch.

At the Embalming Table, each bottle goes into one of the body’s pockets and stays there. A body holds at most 6 pocket items, organs not counted. The bottle is used up as soon as you pick it, and the job never fails. It takes 2 minutes on the Embalming Table and half that on the Embalming Table II.

Notes

  • One injection moves a grave twice as far as a solution. Each red skull removed is a point the decorations keep, and each white skull added raises the ceiling.
  • It takes longer than a single-colour solution, which needs 80 seconds on the Embalming Table.
  • At Anatomy 8 every bottle comes out grade III, since the recipe is graded by stars. The town Alchemist sells grade I from its first tier and one grade III a week at its third, for 70 silver.
  • Studying one costs 5 to 15 Science by grade.
