ALCHEMY
-------
Any of these potions can be created by alchemists using the proper
ingredients and equipment. It is assumed the character has a lab somewhere
where he/she usually does most of his/her experiments and/or work. Alchemists
start with 10 + (luck/2) pre-made potions of his/her choice and $150 worth of
extra ingredients. The character's normal starting money can also be used to
purchase these ingredients. Water is an ingredient in all potions. Any non-
alchemists drinking these potions must make a stamina check or suffer upset
stomach and sickness for (30 - sta) hours (minimum of 1). The potion still
has the same effect, but once the duration elapses the sickness sets in.
Alchemic Experimentation:
Characters with alchemy may attempt to create new potions and effects. This,
like any other experimentation, is risky. The character must be in his/her
lab in order to do any serious experimentation. First, make a 1/4 chemistry
roll when the potion is made. If the roll fails, continue normally until the
potion is used. As soon as it is used, roll on the following chart:
01-10 Drinker is poisoned and will die within 1d10 hours
11-20 Drinker lapses into a coma
21-30 Drinker gains a random bad thing (GM's choice) for 5 minutes
31-40 Drinker takes 1d10 damage and is ill for 1d10 days
41-50 Drinker suffers upset stomach and sickness for 1d10 hours
51-60 Drinker gains a random good thing for 5 minutes
61-00 Nothing happens
