When the player produced a composite, it changed colour depending on which was its highest property. If it had two properties within ten points of each other, it showed a combination of those colours. The player could also see the exact numbers for each property each composite they made had.  
When the player produced a composite, it changed colour depending on which was its highest property. If it had two properties within ten points of each other, it showed a combination of those colours. The player could also see the exact numbers for each property each composite they made had.  


For each potion, players were tasked with producing a composite with a specific property value, random for each player.  
Each of the ten ingredients are modified in a different way when the player performs a certain operation on them. The maximum amount each property can be modified is listed below. This information had to be worked out by players during the plot.

The other composite the player needed was a special composite called Spectral Essence. Sophie eventually remembered that it was made from Bloodfern Loam and Leafy Slorgblossom, but couldn't remember which property it needed. In fact, any composite that combined at least one gram each of Bloodfern Loam and Leafy Slorgblossom, with a Power property of at least +350 would become Spectral Essence.
