-You may create powerful flasks out of unstable reagents to throw at your enemies. To use a flask, you must expend 1 TP or MP at minimum and for each point of MP or TP spent it adds three  dice of damage.

Once made, any MP or TP spent this way is reserved and does not recover until the flask is used.
