Just noted this as missing in 14229. Apparently it hasn't been a popular item.
Unknown item found: voodoo glowskull (7614, 994922193)

Yes, I'd agree that something that didn't exist before today "hasn't been a popular item" before today.
Have the info for the rest of the potions?

Am I the only one who thinks that avatar potions are amongst the dumbest content in the game? Now I have the option to look like five different flavors of pygmy. Seriously, why?

Edit - You probably aren't alone, but there are probably some folks for whom this is a huge deal. It's like in MMOs there are people who just put on whatever they get, and others who'll spend days tweaking their appearance to (their) perfection.

AT least they have their own section in the inventory now so you can ignore them more easily...

Why not?

That reminds me, I need to make a dessert script that quaffs an avatar potion just like I have my breakfast change tattoos.

I found some in run, and others looking on an alt. Still missing 5-8 or so (almost certainly effects 1671, 1672, 1676, 1677, 1682, possibly 1665, 1696, 1697) at 14235

I wrote one that uses the cheapest one already in inventory. It mildly amuses me, especially in run. There's plenty of dumber content, but I do wish they'd spent their efforts on something other than more pointless potions.

Pointless is a matter of opinion. I'm sure an IOTM that let you, for example, mix avatar potions to create a new avatar would generate enough Mr. A purchases to look like A Good Idea. (But I wouldn't buy it).

Sigh. Because they are silly and pointless?

If I didn't use my OCD script they'd be a serious annoyance. With it, they're just extra meat which will appear from nowhere. That's why I do not complain too much.

Would you mind if I took a gander at it?

That sounds like more of a reason to do it than not! Seriously though, some of the stuff they do I swear they do just for fun, keep them interested in what they're doing. Can you imagine what would happen if Jick and Co. got bored with this?

... And now I'm going to rock myself to sleep in the fetal position.

Wow. That's some seriously ugly code. I did learn later how to loop over a range of item numbers, but it's hard to explain the line that says "if (X && Y && X)" where both X's are exactly the same expression.

Did you mean "(historical_price(thing) < 10000) && (historical_age(thing) > 6) && (historical_age(thing) < 10000)"? because I don't see any other if with three conditions ... and this isn't X && Y && X: price is not the same thing as age.

Hmm, was looking for a way to access the "Makes you look" part of the effect rather than a hard-coded list, because I can't for the life of me figure it out. We KNOW there's gonna be more. Only problem is, the effects are commented out in modifiers.txt. Maybe a separate FReq to recognize those effects is needed?

Oh, right. Even after you point it out, my brain still sees those two as being the same.

Ahh. Yes. For a long time it was just that fixed list. Well, there's always the wiki page! *sigh* This one parses the Monster Manuel wiki page to get the list of potions.

Crowther, I simplified your script thanks to Veracity's recent mafia update. This version will work without needing to parse the wiki.

Code: 
item [int] avatars;

item av_item(effect av) {
	foreach a in av.all
		return a.replace_string("use 1 ", "").to_item();
	return $item[none];
}

int price(item it) {
	return historical_age(it) > 1? mall_price(it): historical_price(it);
}

item cheapest() {
	foreach x,av in avatars
		if(price(av) > 0) return av;
	return $item[none];
}

void main() {
	// Check if there is an Avatar potion currently in affect
	foreach ef in my_effects()
		if(string_modifier(ef, "Avatar") != "") {
			print("Won't imbibe an Avatar Potion because you already look like a "+string_modifier(ef, "Avatar")+".", "blue");
			return;
		}

	foreach ef in $effects[]
		if(string_modifier(ef, "Avatar") != "")
			avatars [count(avatars)] = av_item(ef);

	sort avatars by price(value);
	item cheap = cheapest();
	if(retrieve_item(1, cheap))
		use(1, cheap);
}
