The power of symbology allows alchemists to tap into the ether and draw upon the alchemical energies of the primes and metals.
 
Each symbol corresponds to one of the primes or metals, and each has a differing effect. The different symbols you may call upon become available with increased training in Alchemy.
 
See AB ALCHEMY LEAD as an example.

: '''Details:'''
 
Robes are the traditional garb of the alchemist, and alchemists may weave from the ether a set of specially crafted robes able to offer protection from damage.
 
ROBES SUMMON will weave a new set of robes from strands of the ether. ROBES CALL will return your robes to you, should they be lost.
 
Each pair of robes may be imbued with the symbols of up to four primes or metals, each offering protection from one type of damage. It is possible to imbue your robes from scratch using ROBES IMBUE WITH <symbols>, wiping away any previous imbuements and applying new ones. It is also possible to imbue a single "slot", using ROBES IMBUE SLOT <1-4> <symbol>. Finally, one may remove all symbols from their robes using ROBES CLEAR, and view the status of any slots using ROBES EXAMINE.
 
Note that a symbol may only appear once on a pair of robes, and using a symbol requires knowing the appropriate ability in Alchemy.
 
The symbols and the damage type they protect against are:
 
Lead:    Blunt
 
Iron:    Cutting
 
Salt:    Magic
 
Tin:    Psychic
 
Copper:  Electric
 
Sulphur: Asphyxiation
 
Silver:  Cold

: '''Details:'''
 
The three primes are present throughout the land, and may be drawn from the ground in certain environments. Mountains, the underground, and magma caves all may be used to extract the primes. The amounts of primes per room is limited however, and you will only be capable of extracting each prime once per room.
 
It is not necessary to know the corresponding Alchemy ability to extract, though having such knowledge will allow a greater yield to the learned alchemist.

: '''Details:'''
 
Though but simple vermin, the internal anatomy of rats is a sure indicator of future events. By dissecting and studying any rat found throughout the cities of Sapience, you may gain glimpses of what is yet to come, allowing an increased chance of critical strikes.

: '''Extra Information:''' Symbol: Two tangent semicircles.
 
: '''Works on/against:'''  Self
 
: '''Details:'''
 
The energy of sulphur will allow you to metabolise vitality tonics more efficiently, causing an increase in health gained. This effect will not last indefinitely, however. Additionally, this ability will NOT increase healing from health elixirs.
|-

: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
By funnelling a most precise amount of matter through the ether, you may draw another across an area to stand before you. This requires your target to remain within the same location until your attempt is completed. This will take some time, during which your concentration is required.

::: EDUCE SILVER
 
: '''Extra Information:''' Symbol: A crescent tangent to a line segment.
 
: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
The energy of silver will bathe another in a radiant light, negating the effects of shrouding for a time. This effect will last much longer if applied during the night.
 
If you do not specify a target, this ability will attempt to draw those who are astralformed or blackwinded in your location back to a physical state.

: '''Syntax:'''            PHLOGISTICATE <target>
 
: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
This ability will cause an enemy's internal anatomy to begin a controlled form of combustion for a time. Fuelled by the use of equilibrium, this will render moss and potash temporarily inert when eaten. Note that this effect will stack if your opponent is already off balance from eating moss or potash, but only to a limited ceiling.
 
This effect is mutually exclusive with that of vitrification.

: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
Utilising the power of gold, the highest of the metals, you may transfer your willpower to another, with some restrictions. First, half of the willpower transferred will be lost. Second, if transferring willpower brings the Alchemist below half of his or her maximum, there is a chance that all willpower will be lost, and the beneficiary will gain none.

: '''Syntax:'''            ASTRONOMY FOCUS <celestial body>
::: ASTRONOMY EMPOWER <target|ME>
::: ASTRONOMY STATUS
 
: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
Each city maintains, within an astronomical laboratory, an orrery specifically designed to resonate with the alchemical energies and the celestial bodies which share this affinity. It is possible to focus this orrery upon one of these celestial bodies, and once three alchemists from your city have done so, you may empower any non-forestal citizen with its power. This focus will be reset every Sarapin, when Ethian's Crossing disrupts the energies across Sapience. The focusing must be done from the appropriate laboratory, and the empowering may be done from anywhere.
 
The celestial bodies, the energy with which they resonate, and their empowered effects are:
 
The sun - Gold - Increased health regeneration.
 
The moon - Silver - Increased mana regeneration.
 
The Nebula Coronae (nebula) - Copper - Increased endurance and willpower regeneration.
 
Ethian - Tin - Increased damage versus denizens.

This ability will cause an enemy's skin to partially transmutate into glass for a time. Abilities that use balance will cause bleeding, with the amount scaling upward with the length of balance loss.
 
This effect is mutually exclusive with that of phlogistication.

: '''Syntax:'''            SYNTHESISE <metal>
 
: '''Details:'''
 
The basis of transmutation, this ability allows the synthesis of the six alchemical metals from the three primes. In order to perform the synthesis, you must be standing within a metallurgical laboratory in which you have permission to work. You must be holding in your hand the prime you wish to synthesise into metal. Each prime may be converted into two of the six metals:
 
Salt: Lead and iron.
 
Sulphur: Tin and copper.
 
Mercury: Silver and gold.
 
This ability is also necessary for the transmutation of alchemical curatives. See AB TRANSMUTATION TRANSMUTATE.
 
Due to conflicts between alchemical metals and commodity metals, those produced via metallurgy may be manipulated by the name a<metal>. For example, agold or atin.

By sending ripples through the ether, you may temporarily disrupt telepathic communications into and out of the surrounding area. This will require a long period during which you may not perform any actions, and comes with a very steep mana and willpower cost.
