Several types of [[potions]] are available. There are three ways to drink a potion. The simplest is to use the appropriate hot key from the keyboard. For example the space bar will "drink" a health potion. The second method is to click the mouse on the appropriate potion image in your control panel. These are arrayed in an arc around the central quest indicator arrow. The third method is to right click on a potion bottle in your [[backpack]].

'''Potions''' are a category of [[Sacred:Items|items]] which produce special effects when used: several types of potions are available, each of them carrying a unique effect.
  
Health potions will ''not'' be consumed if your character is already at full health. A side effect of this: you ''cannot'' drink a health potion to heal your horse ''while you are at full health'' – you must take some damage first. The potions, and their uses are described below.
