Alchemists are the scientists of the Old World. Since its inception, Alchemists have tirelessly searched for the path to immortality. They strive to discover what makes us, as mortals, fall apart and die. An Alchemist constantly tries to break down the world around them to its base parts so that he/she may manipulate them to their will and create things never seen before. As hard as they try, most Alchemists barely scratch the surface of the possibilities of their work, and because of the severe difficulty of their research, other Alchemists aren't talking. There circulates a rumor, however, of the Emerald Tome. A tome that contains the compiled research of some of the greatest Alchemists ever known. The last known record of the tome’s existence was in the year 302, when it was stolen from the royal library during the Great War. There are many that say its' contents were memorized and then destroyed by the one who stole it, to keep anyone else from knowing its' true power. There are others that say they know of pieces of the tome that have been found, and that the rest of the tome still exists somewhere. But these could merely be rumors. In the years since its' disappearance, many have spent their lives in pursuit of the Emerald Tome, with only a whisper here and there ever being found.
Players with the Alchemy skill can create alchemy once per event with the help of an Alchemical Lab. The amount of alchemy that can be created is based upon the level of the player's Alchemy Skill, level, the type of lab that is being used, and any other components that are being converted to Alchemy Production Points.
Any coin cost, tags, or other items used for creation must be turned in to Logistics at Check-In, at which point the player will receive all tags for the event.
The number of points available will be calculated based on the tables below multiplied by the number of days the player will be at the event. For example, if a level 8 player will be attending Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of an event (Friday and Sunday only count as half days and Saturday is 1 full day) and has Rank 5 Alchemy and is using a Level 2 Lab, the breakdown would be as follows.
2 Days x (((Rank 5 x 2) + Level 8) x Apprentice Lab) = 72 Alchemy Production Points for the Event
Alchemy has a "Shelf Life" of 1 year and may be used up to the event marking 1 year from the date of creation. Alchemy Production Points not used may not be "banked" for later use. Alchemy production may only be done at Check-In and cannot be done after In-Play has been called.
