Scarlixir

The Scarlixir (JP: スカーレッティー Sukārettī, lit. "Scarletea") is a consumable in Chapter 4 of Deltarune. It is purchased from the Old Man's Study, conjured from a strange spring in the 3rd Sanctuary, and can be obtained through chests throughout the Dark Sanctuaries, stolen from Mizzle via the Embezzle ACT, or found inside a chest in the waterfall room of the 2nd Sanctuary if 100 to 499 D$ were donated in Dark Sanctuary. A chest holding one also appears after losing twice to the Titan. It heals 160 HP to Kris, Susie, and Ralsei. If used on Noelle, it heals 155 HP to Noelle and 5 HP to Kris. It is unaffected by BlueRibbon's healing boost effect, unless used on Noelle.^[1]

In Chapter 5, a Scarlixir can be fused with a PowerBand to create a PunchBowl. A Scarlixir can also be fused with the MysticBand to create a TensionMax.

Etymology

Scarlixir is a portmanteau of "scarlet" and "elixir", with the former being the color of the fruit juice and its mix likely housed in the church, and the latter being a common term to refer to a magical potion or medicine of some kind. This may be why Ralsei refers to it as medicine, disliking the taste.

Allusions

It is possible that the inclusion of two items within the same Chapter containing the word "scarlet" and "rhapsody" may be a reference to the 10.5th installment in the Touhou Project series, Scarlet Weather Rhapsody.
