Recognizing their grape stompers' regular use of bast fabric for its natural penchant to wick away water, an enterprising conglomeration of Halfling vintners set out to devise and popularize a new textile. Bast fibers specially treated with a mixture of berries, oil, and sweet tobacco leaf resulted in a unique variant, rumored to enhance the flavor of whatever liquid runs across it -- particularly sweet alcohols. While it can be dyed any color, it will always have a berry-hued undertone speckled with glittery black dots. In honor of the merriment and mirth from which berrybomb bast was born, the Olvi winemakers leaned into the lexical double entendre of their fabric's chosen name and, through gleeful marketing and sensationalized word of mouth, it quickly garnered a reputation for bolstering one's stage presence, sales pitches, and general charm. Many supplicants of Glythtide have also developed a fondness for the material, and regularly incorporate it into matters or mementos of spiritual significance.

Common Description
