Tweaking details about Charles Thompson, who is alchemy-related but doesn't teach it

== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==
'''Alchemy''' is a crafting skill that is easy to learn, difficult to master. [[Mycology]] is tangentially related, but many Alchemists refuse to accept it as such. Alchemists often mix potions, lotions, ointments, and oils. Some Alchemists have been known to use their skills to create poisoned weapons, or specific potions to resist the elements.

<!-- A list of methods to learn and level the skill -->
The [[Alchemy]] skill is learned by doing anything to gain experience in Alchemy. Unlike some other skills, you do not need to first learn the skill in order to gain experience in Alchemy. There are several ways to first gain XP in Alchemy:
;Learn level 0 Alchemy recipes, and use them.* The book [[Basics of Alchemy]], which can be found in [[Elmetaph]]'s bookcase in the lighthouse on [[Anagoge Island]], teaches two level 0 Alchemy recipes. ([[Basics of Alchemy]] can also be found on the first level of the [[Anagoge Records Facility]] on [[Anagoge Island]].) * The book [[Alchemy: So You Want To Be An Alchemist]] is sold by [[Yetta]] in [[Eltibule Keep]] and contains a level 0 Alchemy recipe. * The book [[Alchemy: Safe Brain Boosts For Beginners]] is a random drop from various mobs, and contains a level 0 Alchemy recipe. It can often be found on the '''Buy Used''' tab at vendors such as [[Hulon]], [[Velkort]] or [[Fainor]]. * [[Marna]] will teach {{Item|Poison Resistance Potion}}, a level 0 Alchemy recipe, if you gain favor with her. * [[Therese]] will teach '''Recipe: Bone Meal (From Any Bone)''' and '''Recipe: Bone Meal (From Humanoid Skull)''' (both level 0 Alchemy recipes) if you gain favor with her. Once a level 0 recipe is learned, use that recipe to gain Alchemy XP and the [[Alchemy]] skill. Repeat the recipe, and/or use additional recipes to gain more experience (first use of any recipe gives an XP bonus), and increase your skill level. As your skill level increases, greater experience gains may be achieved by continuing to learn additional recipes from various books (see below). ;Earn Alchemy experience by doing favors:* [[Marna]] will give Alchemy XP if you complete [[Lapis Lazuli for Marna]]. ;Earn Alchemy experience by doing hang-outs:* [[Rita]] will give Alchemy XP if you complete '''Help Rita Make Soap'''. {{Spoiler|Alchemy on [[Anagoge]]|[[Alchemy]] can be learned on [[Anagoge Island]] without ever leaving the island. Learn the recipes in '''[[Basics of Alchemy]]''' as described above. These recipes allow for the creation of '''[[Parasol Mushroom Flakes]]'''. The flakes are a necessary ingredient for '''[[Pick-Me-Up Juice]]'''. Creating [[Pick-Me-Up Juice]] gains skill in Alchemy, and you may find the juice is needed by a certain individual on the island.}} ==Alchemy NPCs=='''[[Azalak]]''' is a friendly Mantis in north [[Serbule]] who can teach you some Alchemy recipes if you earn his trust. '''[[Marna]]''' in [[Serbule]] will teach an Alchemy recipe if you gain favor with her. '''[[Therese]]''', a gardener in [[Serbule]], will teach several Alchemy recipes to those who befriend her. '''[[Yetta]]''' in [[Eltibule]] will offer several Alchemy skills to those that gain favor with her. '''[[Jaw]]''' in the [[Myconian Cave]] teaches a few Alchemy recipes. '''[[Zealo]]''' in [[Carpal Tunnels]] teaches several Alchemy recipes. '''[[Yagreet]]''' in [[Sun Vale]] teaches several Alchemy recipes. Teaches higher level Mushroom Suspension recipes. '''[[Ragabir]]''' in [[Red Wing Casino]] teaches a lot of level 40 Alchemy recipes. '''[[Charles Thompson]]''', a human in [[Serbule]], stores alchemy items in his tent outside the walls of [[Serbule Keep]]. He has been known to teach some of his [[Mycology]] recipes to those who gain his trust. == Connected Skills == =====Sub-Skills:=====* None=====Secondary Skills:=====* [[Mycology]] - A skill which produces some mixtures used in Alchemy.* [[Battle Chemistry]] - Battle Chemistry requires Level 50 Alchemy.===== Related Skills:==Combat abilities===* [[Gardening]] - Alchemy can be used to create [[Bone Meal]] and [[Rotten Meat]], which can be components of [[Bottle of Fertilizer]].{{:{{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}/Abilities}}===== Synergy Levels: =====Bonus [[Synergy Levels]] for [[Alchemy]] can be obtained from the following skills and levels::; [[Ancillary-Armor Augmentation]] :: Level 35:; [[Armor Augmentation]]:: Level 35:; [[Cheesemaking]] :: Level 30:; [[Cooking]] :: Level 30:; [[Holistic Wellness]] :: Level 38:; [[Jewelry Augmentation]] :: Level 35:; [[Mycology]] :: Level 10, Level 40:; [[Pathology]] :: Level 15:; [[Safecracking]] :: Level 35:; [[Spider]] :: Level 27, Level 41:; [[Weapon Augmentation]] :: Level 35 == Alchemy Books =={| {{STDT| classsortable mw-collapsible<includeonly> mw-collapsed</includeonly>}} style="wikitablewidth:100%;"| Poison Blade || Jab a Weak Poisoned Knife into your target, dealing instant Poison damage. ||10 !
