Alchemy

Alchemy is a magical science used to transmute both animate and inanimate matter. For example, it may be used to turn dirt into metal. It is also what is used to create Curses, with Monsters like Vampires and Werewolves being the result of alchemical transmutation by the Herald Tormentus. Orcs are also a product of alchemical transmutation.
Due to its dangerous nature, alchemy is largely shunned throughout Arctus. A few groups are known to make use of it, however, such as the Globeforgers of the Monastery of the Heralds in Pioris, who are given special privileges to perform alchemy legally, and the High Elves of Grand Alftia, who are famed practitioners of alchemy.
