A: While the Fantasia potion has some in-world flavor text, it’s mainly meant to be seen as a meta object. For example, you wouldn’t see it’s use, or reference to its use in storylines since in effect it doesn’t actually exist (… So far. You never know if something might change)
Using fantasia in RP confirmed to be lore breaking.
I know this won't stop anyone. But it's good to see a dev response to justify keeping it out of my own RP circles and ignoring it, rather than just rely on sound reasoning.
This was admittedly my main motivation for asking. I have been in a lot of heated talks because people feel personally attacked etc. when their fantasia is not acknowledged. Having something to refer to from a more official source than my own musings might quell those arguments before they even start. Especially because I don't actually ever intend to go about passing judgement on people like that, I just am not comfy roleplaying with fantasia in it's various incarnations - even if it's lighthearted and fluffy.
