1. See Damage Increases by Size to calculate the damage for a weapon larger than Medium or smaller than Small.
2. Weight figures are for Medium weapons. A Small weapon weighs half as much, and a Large weapon weighs twice as much.
3. When two types are given, the weapon is both types if the entry specifies "and", either type (player's choice at time of attack) if the entry specifies "or", or each end of the double weapon is a different type if the entry specifies "/".
4. The hp value given is for Medium armor, weapons, and shields. Divide by 2 for each size category of the item smaller than Medium, or multiply it by 2 for each size category larger than Medium.

The foam flask is actually a pair of separated reactive alchemical solutions strapped together and embedded in a gelatinous coating with an easy-to-break outer shell. The whole flask is designed to react together to create a mess of flame- and heat-resistant foam. When thrown, a direct hit deals 1d4 points of non-lethal damage from the impact.

Immediately after the impact, the foam expands in its space, extinguishing unprotected flames. Creatures and objects in the space gain fire resistance 10 and energy hindrance 50% against [Fire] effects and damage and are granted 20% concealment from all the foam. The following round, all spaces adjacent to the impact zone fill with foam as it expands. Each round spent within a foamy square, creatures with the fire subtype are dealt 1d6 lethal damage. A square of foam that's dealt more than 20 [Fire] damage from a single effect burns off afterwards. The foam pops and dissipates after 5 rounds.

Craft (Alchemy) DC 20. Market Price 24 gp.
