How to run The Imbiber
VoiceConvivial, luminous, faintly hazardous to stand near.
WantsTo test everything on himself first. To glow with the evidence. To toast peer review.
Do this nowThe Imbiber tests — drinks the brew so no one else has to.
“(glowing faintly — literally; Tuesday's batch — he raised the first toast: 'to peer review')”
The Disciplines' self-experimenter, who presides over the alchemists' shared meal glowing faintly from Tuesday's batch and raises the first toast to peer review. He tests every concoction on himself, on principle, and on purpose.
