Rank 3 - Streamlined Brewing

Rank 4 - Journeyman Alchemist

Rank 5 - Master Alchemist

Rank 1 - Novice Alchemist

Alchemy is the art of harnessing the elements and blending them with willpower to create a liquid with magical properties.

As a novice alchemist, you have learned to brew all Novice Potions. Brewing a potion takes 1 hour, and during a long rest, you can craft two potions while still benefiting from a long rest. To brew a potion, you need to have the required components and willpower available.

Alchemical Ingredients

In alchemy, the ingredient itself is not important, but rather the element that people associate with it. Alchemy is the process of distilling that elemental essence out of the ingredient to then combine them to create potions.

Determining an ingredient's element is related to the perceived association. For example, feathers are associated with winds, while spicy peppers are associated with fire and earth.

When a recipe asks for 1000 coins' worth of Fire ingredients, this could be 100 spicy peppers or a dragon flower.

Improvised Brewing

After you finish a long rest, you have the option to brew potions through Improvised Brewing. This process involves using ingredients you scavenge during your rest and heavily infusing them with willpower to make them viable for potion crafting. To determine the ingredients available, you roll a number of d4s equal to half your power and note all individual values, representing the different components you've gathered.

In the Potions table, you can find the combination of dice needed to craft the specific potion without having the exact ingredients. However, you still have to spend the required Willpower. It's important to note that potions crafted through Improvised Brewing will expire at the end of the day.

The 4 numbers on the dice represent the elements used in alchemy: 1 for Earth, 2 for Water, 3 for Fire, and 4 for Wind.

Instead of rolling, you can also choose to redo the exact same batch as the last one you did.

For example, in the Novice Potions table, under the Improvised Brewing column, it may indicate that you need a 2, a 3, and a 4 to craft a certain potion. This means you must have rolled at least one of each of these values on your d4s during the scavenging process. Once you have the required ingredients, proceeding to brew the potions consumes the dice and the necessary willpower.
