Even though inquisitors are trained in sword combat, they might not always have equal chances against a bigger group of enemies or even one powerful foe. That’s when shersken becomes a useful ally. Veteran inquisitors like Mordimer Madderdin are well aware of its capabilities and always carry a pouch of shersken attached to their belts or in their pockets.
Shersken can be used in several ways. In small doses, it can heal many different illnesses. When used in large quantities, it becomes a deadly and undetectable poison. It can also be used in combat since when thrown in an opponent’s face, it can blind them for a period of time and cause a great deal of pain. This dirty trick can create an opening for an attack or help the inquisitor to escape from battle unscathed.
The origin of this herbal mix is unknown, but it’s believed that the Byzantine Empire originally crafted the recipe. No one knows how and when the Inqusitorium learned how to prepare shersken for its own purpose. The inquisitors need to place an order for each portion and explain how was the previous one used. The place where shersken is prepared remains a mystery.
