Alchemist

Description
An orphan child wandering around aimlessly starving... it is because of memories like these that people can't stop their obsession with gold. The study of Alchemy began with a greedy desire to discover how to transmute gold to live a wealthy life. However the truth is that handmade potions and spells are popular with other adventurers and sometimes even save lives. Potion and spell crafting have become the strength of Alchemists and they continue their research in this after the realization that gold transmutation is an empty myth.



Basic Info
The Alchemist collects various herbs to create potions which can recover HP or SP. Using their expert knowledge, they can also create special potions which boost vitality.

To purchase Alchemist recipes to craft, talk to Heis the Alchemist Expert in Prontera (N : 969 S:697). Recipies will also require potion bottles which can be purchased from the Alchemist Expert or crafted from raw materials.

The primary means of Alchemists to get materials is by picking flowers found throughout the map. Flowers which can be picked are denoted by a glowing aura above the flowers and a cursor swap when you move your mouse over the flowers.

Guardian's story
Before the great disaster the City of Magic was Juno, Hohenheim was the third headmaster of the Magic Academy in Juno. He was the one who created the educational structure of the previously little-known alchemy and bought it up the regular class level of magic studies. One day he suddenly disappeared, leaving his great accomplishments behind. It was unexpected, not even by himself. The last alchemy theme he researched was the fusion of human and demon. The corpse of Baphomet, the demon that shook the entire continent of Midgard in fear, was obtained by Hohenheim who then attempted the fusion of human and demon with it. The human part of the experiment was none other than himself. He wanted to combine the great magical powers of the Baphomet into the human body to create a new human race. The preparations of the experiment were done and the perfect alchemy formula were established, everything seemed to be going well but the result of the experiment was devastating. Hohenheim's soul was instead fused into Baphomets body. Hohenheim, who lost his rationality at the unexpected result ran away into the Geffen forest to escape being destroyed by the Magic Academy's researchers who though he was just another monster. Hohenheim was filled with endless frustration. "If I could revise the formula just a little but more, just a bit, the alchemy would have succeeded..." Secluded in the forest Hohenheim continued his research, unbeknown to others, until he silently met the Day of Despair.
