Potion of Heroism 5e
Potion, rare
For 1 hour after drinking it, you gain 10 temporary hit points that last for 1 hour. For the same duration, you are under the effect of the Bless spell (no concentration required). This blue potion bubbles and steams as if boiling.

Talk about a misnomer; Potion of Heroism doesn’t give you the effect of the Heroism spell at all, but instead Bless+. Beyond its name, this handy potion will make one person a bit better through a dungeon and a fairly low cost. Going into a crypt? Chug a Potion of Heroism to get literal liquid courage!
Bless improves attack rolls and saving throws by 1d4; it doesn’t include ability checks.
The temporary hit points don’t stack with other temporary hit points from a source like Heroism; you take whatever quantity is highest, you don’t stack them on top of each other.
These temporary hit points can’t be refilled by spending hit dice or receiving healing; once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.
