Skittering Blood

Skittering Blood is an alchemical reagent harvested from the arachnids dwelling within the Skittering Dark of Silverpine Forest. It serves as a vital toxic ingredient for the Royal Apothecary Society's research into a New Plague designed to eradicate both Scourge and humanity.

A Toxic Distillate

Harvested from Skitterweb lurkers, strikers, and their broodmother Krethis the Shadowspinner, this venomous hemolymph possesses virulent properties prized by Forsaken alchemists. Apothecary Renferrel discovered that when refined alongside toxins extracted from grizzled bear hearts, the blood forms the base of an exceptionally lethal elixir. The compounds within the fluid demonstrate severe contaminating agents, making it an ideal biological catalyst for the Apothecarium's chemical experiments.

Fueling the New Plague

Under the direction of Master Apothecary Faranell in the Undercity, the Royal Apothecary Society gathers reagents like Skittering Blood to engineer a devastating New Plague. Faced with overwhelming Scourge hordes and hostile human remnants, the Forsaken pursue biological warfare as an equalizer. Faranell analyzes the blood's toxic potency to devise a contagion potent enough to snuff out unlife and living flesh alike.
