Potion Making DND

There are six strengths of potions - lesser, common, adequate, quality, exquisite, and perfect - with each having greater effects, area of effect, value, and required potion making level. A character's potion making level is determined by their class levels in certain classes and proficiency with an artisan's kit. Higher potion strengths take longer to brew and have higher DC checks to create.
