Potion Bandolier

The Potion Bandolier first appears in The Butcher's Masquerade as a flexible fabric ring resembling a limp bandolier, designed to auto-equip thrown potions onto compatible slots such as shoulders. Unlike rigid leather alternatives, its floppy construction allows it to be thrown or worn dynamically, marking a shift toward more versatile utility gear in Carl's inventory during the escalating dangers of the fifth floor. Across the series, it represents an evolution in potion management tools, enabling faster access in combat scenarios that build on earlier, less specialized equipment found in prior books.
