Cost 10 rupees

When added to a potion, medicine, or other magical liquid, Craving Powder will dissolve and render the liquid itself extremely addictive. Any creature who ingests the tainted liquid will develop a temporary physical dependence upon it, during which they must continue to consume the same type of liquid or else suffer debilitating withdrawal symptoms. Typically, symptoms are the opposite of whatever benefit drinking the liquid would normally grant (For example, a Pegasus Seed elixir laced with Craving Powder would likely cause a target to move slowly if they did not continue to drink other Pegasus Seed elixirs.) Although the addiction lasts only a day or two, repeated exposure to Craving Powder may result in a permanent addiction.

One instance of this treasure grants the user a Supply of Craving Powder, so she will practically never run out.

Trivia
