desalination pellet

A chalky white pellet with the letters "HH" inscribed in tiny script.

Perfect

When a desalination pellet is applied to a container of liquid, or thrown into a pool of liquid on the ground, it removes up to 200 drams of salt, leaving behind the remaining liquid.[1]

ichor merchants and Hortensa always stock several desalination pellets[2][3]; they also rarely appear in generalist merchants' inventories.[4]

Special Liquid Interactions

Certain liquids change into other liquids under the effect of a desalination pellet.[1]

Tips

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.
  • As desalination pellets have no weight, they can be carried as a means of cleaning widely-available salty water for trade or consumption as an alternative to carrying freshwater or precious metals.
  • The enterprising player can use a single desalination pellet to turn 1000 drams of brackish water (which typically generates with 20% salt content) into 800 drams of fresh water. This is best achieved by throwing the pellet into an undisturbed pool from an adjacent space, as standing in newly-desalinated water tends to contaminate it with salt from the ground.
  • Generally the only one of the special conversions that will be useful to the player is turning slime into gel, for curing Ironshank or fungal infections.
