Tears should have an emotional (possibly alien) influence over uses depending on type of tear. Many are from tragic circumstances with epic histories. Leaves a strong impression on user sometimes influencing alignment even. Each tear has a secret recipe in a separate book. Some are forbidden to humans and are hidden. Books instruct how to find creature, what emotion is needed, how to obtain it and they other ingredients and conditions. Some recipes are flawed in one of these ingredients. Witches still teach some of the simpler recipes in Tear Lore. Gods cry infrequently and are hard to make cry and grubbing about for their tears is unseemly and rude. Thus these great tears are rare. Some tears are bad trips and might require a WIS save or develop madness or alignment shift (new neurosis, phobias, likes, dislikes).
