Dravya – Elixirs & Liquids – The Living Potions of Magic and Essence
Nature: Mystical or alchemical liquids that embody life, energy, and magical properties.

Enhance strength, senses, or magical potency. Transform body, mind, or elemental affinity. Protect, reveal knowledge, or catalyze alchemical reactions.
Core Principle: Unlike ordinary liquids, a Dravya is alive with essence, capable of:
