Origin[]
The Nanteos Cup is a medieval wood mazer bowl. Since the late 19th-century it has been attributed with a supernatural ability to quickly heal those who drink from it. The wood was said to come from the True Cross, otherwise known as the cross that Jesus Christ was crucified on. Although the healing factor was true one needed to drink from it constantly otherwise the illness would not only return but come back worse than before more than often killing those who drank from it.
Effects[]
Drinking from it heals and increases strength. Over time the victim will become weaker and weaker and die. Tippu forced his slaves to drink from it before being sold.
