Potions of vitality

Potions that have the same effect as vitality rewards. Perhaps an alternative to keep those who don't appreciate vitality boost rewards happy.

Re: Potions of vitality

This could be way too unbalancing, unless the amount of potions was severely limited (artifact potions?).  At one point I considered adding a feature that, once stats are fully maxed, giving drinking additional stat potions a small chance to make your character slightly more powerful.  (Drinking a potion of constitution having a 5% chance of increasing your hp by 1, potion of strength having a 5% chance of increasing your weight carrying capacity by one pount, etc...).  But in the end I concluded it would just lead to powerful characters that would make the game boring.
