Alchemical Analysis

From Curious Pastimes Wiki

Alchemical Analysis

Name Alchemical Analysis
Cost 8 points
Prerequisites Any 2 of Apothecary, Imbuer and Poisoner
Key Words Archetype / Twice per day
Description The character can, with access to an Alchemist's Laboratory and at a cost in Work Units, identify the primary alchemical traits of herbs or other ingredients. Alchemical Analysis destroys one unit of an ingredient.

This process grants the character a close understanding of the ingredient that will grant a discount to research targets when using it.

Note: While the alchemist can tell others the ingredient’s traits (which can be invaluable for research), this does not also confer the discount.
