Sorcery backlash absorber with 2x absorption strength.
Owner's note: The immediate notable difference between the amphora and the crystalline ampoule is that the amphora must be held, not worn. FOCUS Messaging is ambiguous above 5 backlashes, and that it protects against moderate backlash, not minor.

Verbs
- STUDY: Recalling what you've heard about the mistglass amphora, you believe you could hold it for limited protection against the violent backlashes sometimes produced by sorcerous spellcasting.
Messaging
The follow messaging is displayed when the amphora reacts to sorcerous backlash:
- Your mistglass amphora shudders and sways as if buffeted by an invisible wind! Writhing motes of bluish shadow coalesce around the tiny vessel and are drawn into its liquid depths, leaving the amphora dimmer than it was before.
Focus
Although lacking a definite magical pattern, the liquid sealed within the mistglass amphora seems fairly reactive.
An inherent instability in its mana resistance indicates an ability to absorb the chaotic energies released during moderate sorcerous backlashes, as well as dampen the effect of others.
You believe the amphora has the capacity to absorb energy from up to five or more backlashes, depending on their severity. (Same when new and after 1 backlash absorption)

Upgrades
This mistglass amphora cannot be upgraded with potency crystals.
Recharge Info
An infuser stone can be used to remove some of the sorcerous impurities that accumulate within the amphora during use, refreshing its ability to absorb backlashes.
You could apply an infuser stone to restore it to its original lucid state, but some of the infuser stone's potential will be wasted since the amphora is already fairly clean. (1 backlash absorbed at this time)
You could apply an infuser stone to restore it to a hazy state. (from completely drained dark state)
You could apply an infuser stone to restore it to a lucid state. (from hazy, and again at lucid with a second and third infuser stones from 0 charges)
amphora has the secondary adjective of "dark" when completely drained.
1 stone restored 3 charges and the adjective of "hazy"
