Redguard:Ingredients

This page describes all of the ingredients in Redguard, including descriptions given by Cyrus. Unlike most other items, they do not appear in your inventory. All eight ingredients are found in N'Gasta's Tower and five of them are also in the Mage's Guild.

You can sublimate ectoplasm, Hist sap, Orc's blood, or spider's milk with any ingredient, though only a few combinations have any noticeable effect. Three combinations noted below have no effect, but are used to open a portal to the realm of Clavicus Vile during the quest Rescue Iszara.

If the combination does not have an effect then Cyrus reacts to the disgusting taste of the potion with one of these lines:

"Blugh! That's nasty."

"Damn! That's foul!"

"My, my, my. That is truly vile."

"Ptooie! Hack! Hack! That's enough of that."
