 ==Drinking Brain Brine==
-Upon drinking a dram of pure brain brine, the creature will be confused for one turn. at the end of that turn, they will receive the message "You shake the water from your addled brain, but someone else's thoughts have already taken root". What happens afterwards is a weighted random chance. Regardless of the result, the creature will always lose one [[Ego]]. If the creature is a [[Chimera]] and the result would otherwise give them a mental mutation or defect, they receive the message "Your mind begins to morph but the physiology of your brain restricts it." instead.
-Brain Brine's RNG table operates separately from every other RNG operation, meaning no amount of Precognition or {{favilink|Neutron Flux}} RNG manipulation will change its outcomes.

+If the affected creature is a [[Chimera]] and the result would otherwise give them a mental mutation or a defect, they receive the message "Your mind begins to morph but the physiology of your brain restricts it." instead.
+Brain brine uses its own random seed, which makes it impossible to change its outcomes using [[Precognition]] and RNG manipulation (such as through {{Favilink | Neutron Flux}}).
