Never a dull
moment.... at least if
you are an alchemist.
One can always be
sure to find any
number of
self-proclaimed
master alchemists

[Page 2]
who are quick to
proclaim this or that
feit of amazing
alchemy. The science
finds its human roots
in well established
practices whose first
designs evolved from

[Page 3]
the desire to
determine what could
be made from
substances. It was
when the first
poisons were
discovered that
noblility in the land

[Page 4]
became greatly more
interested in the
research. Today the
practice is spread
throughout the land
with alchemists
selling this or that
ware or potion of

[Page 5]
healing.What is often
un-mentionned is the
darker history behind
this discipline. It is a
much more interesting
and diverse branch of
the field. One that has
not evolved in the same


[Page 6]
manner as traditional
alchemy.
If I told ye that there
is a potion that when
drunk by a living man
will bond him to any
master for as long as
his master exists?

[Page 7]
There are secrets that
would make the mind
shudder horribly
and possibly die...
many will make ye
insane... have you not
wondered why so
many alchemists are

[Page 8]
mad?
Indeed. the science is
the most unforgiving
of all practices next to
wizardry...
It is said that there
are some potions that
can only exist in

[Page 9]
certain planes of
being, but hold within
them the power to
make one a God.
