Alchemist

Alchemy is a quasi-magical science practiced in many areas of Talislanta, but perhaps perfected by the Sindarans of the Seven Kingdoms. As alchemists generally believe that everything, even living creatures, can have their essences distilled down and manipulated many of them are quite adept at categorizing and recognizing various types of flora and fauna. However, in some regions alchemy is less of a science and more of a tradition that is passed down from generation to generation.

While such cultures do not typically attach the same significance to ‘distilling essences,’ they do recognize that the qualities of various plants and animals can be bestowed upon others. Urban alchemists tend to be quite wealthy, both making and spending small fortunes in their trade. Rural or tribal alchemy practitioners may have less monetary wealth, but carry instead the respect or fear of their neighbors.
