Introduction
The book Arms of Legend missed out on the fine art of alchemical potion creation, and
while the Enchantment section of Arcania of Legend: Blood Magic did somewhat close the
gap, Legend has still missed out on some important rules concerning the creation of
potions through alchemy.
Important Sourcebooks
The following sourcebooks provide the essential information
needed for this article.
- Legend Core Rulebook
- Arms of Legend
- Arcania of Legend: Blood Magic
- Renaissance SRD
Basic Information
Alchemical potion creation involves use of the alchemist's Philosopher's Stone (see
“Alchemy,” Arms of Legend, p. 150) and the Lore (Alchemy) skill (p. 151). The process
involves expending some of the stored Magic Points in the Philosopher's Stone to
transmute base materials into what is called a substrate.
Substrate Preparation
The alchemist rolls Lore (Alchemy) to create the substrate (Renaissance, p. 104). The
alchemist creates a number of measures of substrate equal to one tenth of his Lore
(Alchemy skill): an alchemist with Lore (Alchemy) 76% could create 8 measures of
substrate. This process takes one hour per measure, and each measure consumes one
Magic Point from the alchemist's Philosopher's Stone.
Each measure weighs 2 ounces. The substrate is the same regardless of the spell cast
into it: a crumbly, granulated powder that can be crushed into a fine dust in the fingers,
equally soluble in watery liquids and oily materials.
Roll Results
Critical ess: Each Magic Point spent from the Philosopher's Stone yields two
ounces
