Alchemy

Alchemy is the study and process of utilizing natural and supernatural Elemental components in order to synthesize useful tools, materials, machines, and devices. It incorporates aspects of Chemistry, Physics, Mana, and Magic and as such, many Alchemical creations are classified as Maverick because they fall somewhere in between the Magical and the Mundane.
== Liquid Alchemy ==
One of the cornerstones of Alchemy is combining ingredients into liquid mixtures that are typically intended to be readily imbibed to grant immediate beneficial effects.
=== Tinctures ===
Tinctures are the most basic Liquid Alchemical creations and tend to only utilize a few simple ingredients. They can either be consumed directly by their user or applied to their weapon to provide minor enhancements to their elemental potency.
=== Tonics ===
Tonics are simple Alchemical creations that supernaturally enhance a creature's natural abilities when consumed.
=== Potions ===
Potions are among the most common Alchemical creations, producing one of a plethora of immediate magical effects upon being imbibed. The most renowned of these effects is the elementary, yet vital, Health restoration provided through Potions of Healing.
=== Elixirs ===
Elixirs are powerful Alchemical mixtures that induce permanent effects upon those who imbibe them.
=== Brews ===
Alchemical Brews are a bit more complex than most ordinary forms of liquid Alchemy and are meant to be consumed slowly as one might enjoy a bowl of soup rather than chugged down immediately. They produce long-term effects that can greatly alter the natural biology of their imbiber.
==== Concoctures ====
Concoctures are a bit different from other mixtures in that they are not meant to be consumed but are rather usually loaded into a flask and launched at a foe. They produce negative effects or unstable Alchemical reactions that may have explosive consequences.
