Welcome to Ebon!
The Alchemy Guide
So you have bought the Alchemy Talent? That's great! Your character after having this Talent applied to them will be imbued with knowledge about the items listed below. Remember that these items come in tiers, in order to unlock the next tier you must have purchased the Alchemy Talent again. That means for all three tiers you must have purchased the Alchemy Talent 3 times.
In order for a character to create any kind of potion or tonic they must first find the ingredients. The first tier allows for basic ingredients and potions to be known, a character must forage for these ingredients officially with the forage roll requests. After they have obtained the ingredients they need they can then make the potion as they see fit. These don't have a specific way to be made so feel free to get creative! Your character may have a stash of these so long as they have made them IC, the ingredients do not go bad nor do the potions, just keep track of what you have made and used!
Below you'll find tier 1 ingredients!

Now there is tier 3, these cannot be foraged for and instead need to be hunted down! These are creatures created by the deities of Ebon and drop special items when killed. For more information on these creatures and what they drop head on over to the Hunt Guide. Once you have taken down on of these creatures you will have acquired one of their special items, the amount needed for each potion in tier 3 is dependent on which power you would like to have your character use.
The higher the level the more exhausted a character will be after using it, as their body is not used to that much magical energy. That's right! There's a reason those branches exist, that is because a character's body needs time to adjust to that much power. It's also why they must practice their magic at least 3 times before being able to move on! When a level 7 power is used through a potion the user has a 50/50 chance of passing out due to exhaustion. These powers granted by Alchemy also can only be used once per thread, unlike the common potions in tier 1.
