Cleansing Draught | Fantasy Potion Item Illustration (Barker’s of Ruin)

Cleansing Draught — a fantasy item illustration inspired by my original TTRPG world, Barker’s of Ruin.

In Barker’s of Ruin, this potion removes all active debuffs and grants immunity to new debuffs for a single combat, acting as a tactical reset when conditions stack against you.

For this piece, I focused on a clean object study approach to keep the design readable and lore-friendly, emphasizing the clarity and restoration the item represents.
