Introduction
“Pure” Alchemy can be defined as mixing materials with the aid of Magic, where the goal is transforming them into a product that exhibits enhanced, new, reduced, and/or negated properties.
It is worth keeping in mind that “pure” Alchemy is not the only way to practice the art, and the line between Alchemy and Magic can easily be indistinguishable when its results are observed. When the common man thinks of Alchemy, immediately potions or other consumable substances come to mind, for this will typically be the extent of their interaction with the art as a consumer of its products.
