In effect, an alchemist prepares his spells by mixing ingredients into a number of extracts, and then \u201ccasts\u201d his spells by drinking the extract. When an alchemist creates an extract or bomb, he infuses the concoction with a tiny fraction of his own magical power\u2014this enables the creation of powerful effects, but also binds the effects to the creator. When using Craft (alchemy) to create an alchemical item, an alchemist gains a competence bonus equal to his class level on the Craft (alchemy) check. In addition, an alchemist can use Craft (alchemy) to identify potions as if using detect magic. He must hold the potion for 1 round to make such a check.\r\n\r\nAn alchemist can create three special types of magical items\u2014extracts, bombs, and mutagens. Bombs are explosive splash weapons, and mutagens are transformative elixirs that the alchemist drinks to enhance his physical abilities\u2014both of these are detailed in their own sections below.\r\n\r\nExtracts are the most varied of the three. In many ways, they behave like spells in potion form, and as such their effects can be dispelled by effects like dispel magic using the alchemist\u2019s level as the caster level. Unlike potions, though, extracts can have powerful effects and duplicate spells that a potion normally could not.\r\n\r\nAn alchemist can create only a certain number of extracts of each level per day. His base daily allotment of extracts is given on Table: Alchemist. In addition, he receives bonus extracts per day if he has a high Intelligence score, in the same way a wizard receives bonus spells per day. When an alchemist mixes an extract, he infuses the chemicals and reagents in the extract with magic siphoned from his own magical aura. An extract immediately becomes inert if it leaves the alchemist\u2019s possession, reactivating as soon as it returns to his keeping\u2014an alchemist cannot normally pass out his extracts for allies to use (but see the \u201cinfusion\u201d discovery below). An extract, once created, remains potent for 1 day before becoming inert, so an alchemist must re-prepare his extracts every day. Mixing an extract takes 1 minute of work\u2014most alchemists prepare many extracts at the start of the day or just before going on an adventure, but it\u2019s not uncommon for an alchemist to keep some (or even all) of his daily extract slots open so that he can prepare extracts in the field as needed.\r\n\r\nAlthough the alchemist doesn\u2019t actually cast spells, he does have a formulae list that determines what extracts he can create. An alchemist can utilize spell-trigger items if the spell appears on his formulae list, but not spell-completion items (unless he uses Use Magic Device to do so). An extract is \u201ccast\u201d by drinking it, as if imbibing a potion\u2014the effects of an extract exactly duplicate the spell upon which its formula is based, save that the spell always affects only the drinking alchemist. The alchemist uses his level as the caster level to determine any effect based on caster level. Creating extracts consumes raw materials, but the cost of these materials is insignificant\u2014comparable to the valueless material components of most spells. If a spell normally has a costly material component, that component is expended during the consumption of that particular extract. Extracts cannot be made from spells that have focus requirements (alchemist extracts that duplicate divine spells never have a divine focus requirement). An alchemist can prepare an extract of any formula he knows. To learn or use an extract, an alchemist must have an Intelligence score equal to at least 10 + the extract\u2019s level. The Difficulty Class for a saving throw against an alchemist\u2019s extract is 10 + the extract level + the alchemist\u2019s Intelligence modifier. An alchemist may know any number of formulae. He stores his formulae in a special tome called a formula book. He must refer to this book whenever he prepares an extract but not when he consumes it. An alchemist begins play with two 1st level formulae of his choice, plus a number of additional forumlae equal to his Intelligence modifier. At each new alchemist level, he gains one new formula of any level that he can create. An alchemist can also add formulae to his book just like a wizard adds spells to his spellbook, using the same costs and time requirements. An alchemist can study a wizard\u2019s spellbook to learn any formula that is equivalent to a spell the spellbook contains. A wizard, however, cannot learn spells from a formula book. An alchemist does not need to decipher arcane writings before copying them.\r\n\r\n[b]Bomb (Su):[\/b] In addition to magical extracts, alchemists are adept at swiftly mixing various volatile chemicals and infusing them with their magical reserves to create powerful bombs that they can hurl at their enemies. An alchemist can use a number of bombs each day equal to his class level + his Intelligence modifier. Bombs are unstable, and if not used in the round they are created, they degrade and become inert\u2014their method of creation prevents large volumes of explosive material from being created and stored. In order to create a bomb, the alchemist must use a small vial containing an ounce of liquid catalyst\u2014the alchemist can create this liquid catalyst from small amounts of chemicals from an alchemy lab, and these supplies can be readily refilled in the same manner as a spellcaster\u2019s component pouch. Most alchemists create a number of catalyst vials at the start of the day equal to the total number of bombs they can create in that day\u2014once created, a catalyst vial remains usable by the alchemist for years.\r\n\r\nDrawing the components of, creating, and throwing a bomb requires a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Thrown bombs have a range of 20 feet and use the Throw Splash Weapon special attack. Bombs are considered weapons and can be selected using feats such as Point-Blank Shot and Weapon Focus. On a direct hit, an alchemist\u2019s bomb inflicts 1d6 points of fire damage + additional damage equal to the alchemist\u2019s Intelligence modifier. The damage of an alchemist\u2019s bomb increases by 1d6 points at every odd-numbered alchemist level (this bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit or by using feats such as Vital Strike). Splash damage from an alchemist bomb is always equal to the bomb\u2019s minimum damage (so if the bomb would deal 2d6+4 points of fire damage on a direct hit, its splash damage would be 6 points of fire damage). Those caught in the splash damage can attempt a Reflex save for half damage. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1\/2 the alchemist\u2019s level + the alchemist\u2019s Intelligence modifier.\r\n\r\nAlchemists can learn new types of bombs as discoveries (see the Discovery ability) as they level up. An alchemist\u2019s bomb, like an extract, becomes inert if used or carried by anyone else.\r\n\r\n[b]Brew Potion (Ex):[\/b] At 1st level, alchemists receive Brew Potion as a bonus feat. An alchemist can brew potions of any formulae he knows (up to 3rd level), using his alchemist level as his caster level. The spell must be one that can be made into a potion. The alchemist does not need to meet the prerequisites for this feat.\r\n\r\n[b]Mutagen (Su):[\/b] At 1st level, an alchemist discovers how to create a mutagen that he can imbibe in order to heighten his physical prowess at the cost of his personality. It takes 1 hour to brew a dose of mutagen, and once brewed, it remains potent until used. An alchemist can only maintain one dose of mutagen at a time\u2014if he brews a second dose, any existing mutagen becomes inert. As with an extract or bomb, a mutagen that is not in an alchemist\u2019s possession becomes inert until an alchemist picks it up again.\r\n\r\nWhen an alchemist brews a mutagen, he selects one physical ability score\u2014either Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution. It\u2019s a standard action to drink a mutagen. Upon being imbibed, the mutagen causes the alchemist to grow bulkier and more bestial, granting him a +2 natural armor bonus and a +4 alchemical bonus to the selected ability score for 10 minutes per alchemist level. In addition, while the mutagen is in effect, the alchemist takes a \u20132 penalty to one of his mental ability scores. If the mutagen enhances his Strength, it applies a penalty to his Intelligence. If it enhances his Dexterity, it applies a penalty to his Wisdom. If it enhances his Constitution, it applies a penalty to his Charisma.\r\n\r\nA non-alchemist who drinks a mutagen must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1\/2 the alchemist\u2019s level + the alchemist\u2019s Intelligence modifier) or become nauseated for 1 hour\u2014a non-alchemist can never gain the benefit of a mutagen, but an alchemist can gain the effects of another alchemist\u2019s mutagen if he drinks it. (Although if the other alchemist creates a different mutagen, the effects of the \u201cstolen\u201d mutagen immediately cease.) The effects of a mutagen do not stack. Whenever an alchemist drinks a mutagen, the effects of any previous mutagen immediately end.\r\n\r\n[b]Throw Anything (Ex):[\/b] All alchemists gain the Throw Anything feat as a bonus feat at 1st level. An alchemist adds his Intelligence modifier to damage done with splash weapons, including the splash damage if any. This bonus damage is already included in the bomb class feature.\r\n\r\n[b]Discovery (Su):[\/b] At 2nd level, and then again every 2 levels thereafter (up to 18th level), an alchemist makes an incredible alchemical discovery. Unless otherwise noted, an alchemist cannot select an individual discovery more than once. Some discoveries can only be made if the alchemist has met certain prerequisites first, such as uncovering other discoveries. Discoveries that modify bombs that are marked with an asterisk (*) do not stack. Only one such discovery can be applied to an individual bomb. The DC of any saving throw called for by a discovery is equal to 10 + 1\/2 the alchemist\u2019s level + the alchemist\u2019s Intelligence modifier.\r\n\r\n[b]Poison Resistance (Ex):[\/b] At 2nd level, an alchemist gains a +2 bonus on all saving throws against poison. This bonus increases to +4 at 5th level, and then again to +6 at 8th level. At 10th level, an alchemist becomes completely immune to poison.\r\n\r\n[b]Poison Use (Ex):[\/b] Alchemists are trained in the use of poison and starting at 2nd level, cannot accidentally poison themselves when applying poison to a weapon.\r\n\r\n[b]Swift Alchemy (Ex):[\/b] At 3rd level, an alchemist can create alchemical items with astounding speed. It takes an alchemist half the normal amount of time to create alchemical items, and he can apply poison to a weapon as a move action.\r\n\r\n[h3]Feats[\/h3]\r\n\r\nWeapon Focus (Thrown), Point Blank Shot, Brew Potion [class], Throw Anything [class], \r\n\r\n[h3]Discoveries[\/h3]\r\n\r\n[b]Acid Bomb:[\/b] When the alchemist creates a bomb, he can choose to have it inflict acid damage. Creatures that take a direct hit from an acid bomb take an additional 1d6 points of acid damage 1 round later.\r\n\r\n[b]Tentacle:[\/b] The alchemist gains a prehensile, arm-length tentacle on his body. The tentacle is fully under his control and cannot be concealed except with magic or bulky clothing. The tentacle does not give the alchemist any extra attacks or actions per round, though he can use it to make a tentacle attack (1d4 damage for a Medium alchemist, 1d3 damage for a Small one) with the grab ability. The tentacle can manipulate or hold items as well as the alchemist\u2019s original arms can (for example, allowing the alchemist to use one hand to wield a weapon, the tentacle to hold a potion, and the third hand to throw a bomb). Unlike an arm, the tentacle has no magic item slots.","attackstable":"","attacks":"Bomb x7: 1d20+6, 2d6+4, splash 4 DC 15, 20 ft","skill_appraise":"10","skill_balance":"","skill_bluff":"","skill_climb":"","skill_concentration":"","skill_craft_tab":"(Alchemy) 10","skill_decipher":"7","skill_diplomacy":"","skill_disable_device":"","skill_disguise":"","skill_escape_artiste":"","skill_forgery":"","skill_gather_info":"","skill_handle_animal":"","skill_heal":"","skill_hide":"10","skill_intimidate":"","skill_jump":"","skill_knowledge_tab":"","skill_listen":"","skill_move_silently":"","skill_open_lock":"","skill_perform_tab":"","skill_profession":"","skill_ride":"","skill_search":"","skill_sens_motive":"","skill_sleight_of_hand":"6","skill_spellcraft":"10","skill_spot":"","skill_survival":"4","skill_swim":"","skill_tumble":"","skill_use_magic_device":"5","skill_use_rope":"","spellbook_0":"","spellbook_1":"[i]Cure light wounds, expeditious retreat, firebelly, identify, polypurpose panacea, shield, true strike[\/i]","spellbook_2":"[i]Invisibility[\/i]","spellbook_3":"","spellbook_4":"","spellbook_5":"","spellbook_6":"","spellbook_7":"","spellbook_8":"","spellbook_9":"","spellbook_epic":"","cp":"","sp":"","gp":"400","pp":"","equipment":"Trail rations 3x, alchemist's fire 3x, potion of [i]cure light wounds [\/i]3x, headband of intellect +1, ","hitpoints_current":"","hitpoints_temp":"","hitpoints_temp_current":"","conditions":"","spellslot_1":"4","spellslot_2":"2","spellslot_3":"","spellslot_4":"","spellslot_5":"","spellslot_6":"","spellslot_7":"","spellslot_8":"","spellslot_9":"","tags":"","templateId":"44","blockId":"405748","isShared":"on"}
