I could make you one. Been making my own for well over two hundred years, and they've never done me wrong. Though it might have a great deal to do with believing in them, just as much as the symbols themselves. Though as my Jack says, "When it's between believing in magic or burning right up, I'll know what I'll choose every time".
Can't say that alcohol's ever sated me, but it does do a trick with the blood and gives it flavor besides.
Really, it's rather easy to figure out who I'm talking about. Look up Todd and Fleet Street.
