### **Enlightenment, comprehension and transcribing**

Creating a technique will almost never succeed, but it costs nothing and could yield great rewards. The likelihood of success increases with your realm, but diminishes if you try to create techniques of a higher level. You succeed if your 1d100 roll is greater than or equal to 100. You get a bonus of +1 for every realm you reach above Qi Condensation. Attempting to create an Advanced, Immortal, or Divine technique gives the roll a penalty of -3, -6, or -9 respectively. You can also attempt to create spell techniques, physical techniques, formations and, if you are an alchemist, pill formulas. You can also meditate on various objects if you believe they hold the secret to a technique instead of attempting to reach enlightenment. Comprehension uses the same attempt as enlightenment so you can only do one each day. You can attempt to comprehend anything but most things do not hold a technique, the difficulty can vary but is usually lower than enlightenment, you can accumulate comprehension to slowly master a technique, unlike enlightenment that must be achieved in one attempt. You can attempt to transcribe any technique you know, however the difficulty will be much higher if your realm is too low. Having created the technique can reduce the difficulty. If it is too difficult you cannot succeed. If you succeed you will have created something that can be comprehended to learn the technique. Attempting to transcribe a technique uses the same attempt as enlightenment and comprehension.

### **Alchemy**

Alchemy requires ingredients as well as the formula to transform these ingredients into a pill. The various details on the pills will be included later in the guide. The success rate of performing alchemy depends on the pill you are crafting as well as the various bonuses you have access to. If you succeed at performing alchemy an amount of pills dependent on the pill you are concocting will be produced. Alchemy success is only affected by realm modifiers and modifiers that specify it. Alchemy yield is only affected by modifiers that specify it. If you are specialized in alchemy and the result obtained on the first roll exceeds the maximum that can be obtained naturally after the modifiers have been applied you will produce divine pills: divine pills are pills that have almost no impurities allowing whoever consumes them to fully use their effects however if they remain for too long they will lose their properties and become normal pills. They have much greater effects than a normal pill but only if consumed within 24 hours. The prices are given in Technique And Item Prices page.

### **Blacksmithing**

Blacksmithing requires iron to attempt. For most the only possibilities are to either create an iron or steel weapon, with the metal depending on your luck. If you are specialized in blacksmithing it is possible to create masterpieces: weapons that cannot break and have higher bonuses than normal ones. The difficulty of forging a masterpiece weapon will be similar to creating a technique. Masterpieces have unique abilities, imbued by their creator. For most weapons it costs 1 iron, for heavy weapons 2 iron and shurikens and throwing knives are made using 1 iron for 6. The prices are given in Technique And Item Prices page.

### **Talisman Drawing**

### **Herb Gathering**
