Grand Panacea

The Grand Panacea is the mysterious substance which Ronny Schiatto, as a demon, provides to the alchemists aboard the Advena Avis in 1711. Once consumed, it grants the individual an unaging, indestructible body; in other words complete immortality.

The Grand Panacea's formula is a secret known only to Maiza Avaro. He was the one who conducted the summoning ritual aboard the ship, therefore Ronny passed on the secret formula to him. It was agreed by majority vote that Maiza would keep this knowledge to himself.

Only Szilard Quates had a problem with this. Szilard wanted the formula in order to make others immortal then devour them, pursuing their minds in order to gain "perfect knowledge." To achieve his goal, Szilard devoured many people aboard the Advena Avis including Maiza's brother Gretto before falling off the edge of the ship.

Sometime during the 1930s, Szilard manages to create a variant of the Grand Panacea known as the Cure-All Elixir. It works in quite the same way as the original, however, anybody who consumes it will still be able to die of old age.
