	The more resources and time provided, the more ambitious the effect the referee can sanction.

			A concoction must be used within a short time of completion - minutes rather than hours. The skill is intended to be reactive and in-the-moment rather than a means of preparation. A referee will advise on how long a specific concoction remains stable at the time of brewing.
	A concoction takes effect immediately upon the player finishing their roleplay. The player may specify a short in-character delay — such as a countdown before an explosion — but the countdown begins immediately upon completion.

	The effects of this skill are not intended to be perfectly repeatable; that is what a researched recipe is for. However, the player may retain the results of a use of this skill and present them later to gain a discount when researching the effect as a permanent recipe.

			\| Description \|\| The character can improvise alchemical formulas to produce short-term magical or physical effects.
	\| Description \|\| Once per day, with access to a '''phys rep''' of suitable tools, the character can improvise an alchemical formula for a short-term effect, e.g. to burn down a door, briefly give someone hysterical strength or create a blinding cloud of vapour. This requires around 2 minutes’ roleplay, hastily mixing ingredients. Using this skill consumes ''four'' [[Alchemy#Alchemy Ingredients\|herbs or other ingredients]].

			With access to a phys rep of suitable tools, the character describes their intent to a referee before beginning work, and the referee determines the outcome based on the resources provided.

			The effect may replicate any existing game or spell effect and may be modified from the standard version — for example, with a longer range, duration, or additional targets. The player may also combine two or more effects into a single concoction.
	Any concoction always has a random chance of an unpredictable effect, such as poisoning the subject, exploding in the alchemist’s face etc. Choosing ingredients with appropriate '''alchemical traits''' will reduce this chance, but not eliminate it.

			Effects are broadly scaled by the resources and time invested:
