Alchemical History

Alchemists are one of the four most common abilities and one of the first abilities to show up.

During the ancient times, Alchemists were more like healers. Working with Medics, they made potions for people. Gathering and farming magic herbs, they were a relatively peaceful group that wished mostly for coexistence. As they worked with potions, many were content to make basic potions with one or two ingredients

Some were not. Some tinkered with ingredients to find out new potions.

Then one day an Alchemist found out something incredible. A potion that could grant one an ability! They had figured out things in Alchemy that no other Alchemist had. They continued to experiment, and decided to hide their research. They called forth other ability users and created a what one could call a challenge of some kind. They created many of them. Hiding what they had made and the research they had made as well. These wouldn't be the only things that were made however. Several remarkable things already created by others lay waiting to be discovered.

Once people began finding them, the age of myth began. People were creating remarkable things and finding even more crazy things. It was a time of questing in small groups like something out of a game. Some Alchemists of this time even worked for normal people. Science was still new so no one knew that Alchemy wasn't really science. Average Alchemists began discovering new things, like the ability to shape materials. Could Alchemist's always do this? Was the ability becoming more powerful? Rivalries between Alchemists, Mechanics, and Blacksmiths to see who could make the best tools began. Even so, Alchemists had trouble replicating the potions they had found. The Ability type of potions was a rare secret very few understood.

And then the Dark Era Began. People began to fear abilities and Alchemists had to stop working for the common man. Ability users began hiding, and they began to group up again to find safety in numbers. The dark times lasted for a while, but some of the more clever ability users began to create secret codes and places. Secrets and secrets.

A new era began, where those with special powers hid from the normal person. some called it the secret era. During this time science had evolved even further and things changed.

The first Chemical Alchemists appeared during this era. New abilities, similar to others were awakening. They were called ability variations.

Then the light era came, when ability users were free to stop hiding. Alchemists joined the other ability users by wandering freely. Still hiding what they can do, but more free.

Then one day an Alchemist got into a heated argument with a Mechanic. Who was better? A Mage and Summoner Joined them and a rivalry began. Contest after contest happened but not one resulted in a clear winner. Then an Enchanter came and changed everything. These five were the ones to lead the next era, the modern one. A new era where Alchemists and other ability users tried to create places for ability users. Alchemists trying to find and gather ability users in these places where they would be able to visit and use abilities together. And the five were known for what they have done.

That is where the story would normally end. But there is another chapter beginning to form.

With all these ability users together in one place, people competed against each other, worked with each other, and something new began to happen. People began to discover new things. Abilities together did things one ability alone could not.

Let's look at the ability a little more.

As stated earlier, Chemical Alchemists are rather new when it comes to abilities. Chemical Alchemists have the uncanny ability to change the states of matter of things, or crystalizing them. They have difficulty making potions however.

Alchemists are good at making materials. Since Alchemists can combine different materials together alchemically to make new ones. Some will only be useful to other ability users.

An uncommon ability Alchemists can have is the ability to rust metal. This often takes water from the air or another water source. Slightly more difficult, Alchemical Renewel, will unrust things.

Potions have a massive potential that is often difficult to ascertain. As spoke of in myth, it may even be possible to make a potion that grants abilities, but it may require rare ingredients, or specific recipe to happen. They say every ability can do this somehow, but finding out how is hard or requires some kind of trick.
