Physiology is the study of the biological processes required for life. Alchemists trained in Physiology will find themselves able to utilise this knowledge in two primary ways:
 
Alchemists trained in Physiology will find themselves able to utilise this knowledge in two primary ways:


First, Alchemists may manipulate the humours, or vital fluids, of others in order to cause illnesses of varying degree, eventually gaining the power to slay another via spontaneous organ failure. Humourism, as this art is called, is based upon the tempering of another's body, aiming to increase his internal fluid level. An unrestricted Humourist is a force to be feared, but their effects may be countered by the ingestion of the ginger herb and antimony mineral.

The second aspect of Physiology is the creation and control of homunculi. From within a properly equipped laboratory, the trained Alchemist may take a small sample of his own flesh, germinating it into a homunculus. Through the physiological and ethereal bond between Alchemist and homunculus, the diminutive creature may be controlled by its master, able to perform varied tasks from assaulting an opponent to being the eyes, ears, and mouth of its owner.

: '''Details:'''
 
The body is held in balance by four vital fluids, called humours. Humourism is the science of manipulating these humours via the ether to cause illness in another.
 
To raise a target's humours, you must TEMPER that humour. Humours can be reduced by the target eating the ginger herb or antimony mineral. The maximum number of times each of a person's humours may be tempered is ten.
 
Each time you TEMPER a humour it raises the level by 1. If the target is afflicted with afflictions related to that humour, this number may rise.
 
Each humour will cause the victim to be disadvantaged in some form. The penalties and related afflictions are as follows.
 
Choleric (yellow bile): Random curing abilities will have a chance of failing. (nausea, sensitivity, slickness)
 
Melancholic (black bile): Irid moss and potash will have a reduced healing benefit. (anorexia, impatience, stupidity)
 
Phlegmatic (phlegm): Smoking will have a chance of filling your lungs with phlegm, leaving you unable to smoke for a short while. (asthma, clumsiness, weariness)
 
Sanguine (blood): Bleeding will increase over time. (haemophilia, recklessness, paralysis)
 
Only one humour may be tempered at once with this ability; training in Physiology will allow for more freedom in tempering multiple humours.

: '''Details:'''
 
From within an appropriate physiological laboratory in which you have permission to work, you may CULTIVATE NUCLEUS, using a small amount of your own flesh to create a small mass of living tissue. This nucleus can then be germinated from anywhere, so long as you hold in your hands some alchemical salt, sulphur, or mercury, into a full-grown homunculus using GERMINATE NUCLEUS <prime>.
 
This homunculus, which is a small, imperfect copy of the alchemist who created it, may be controlled via the ethereal bindings between the creator and the created. Initial control is weak, but further training in Physiology will allow for more proficient control of your homunculus.
 
You may only have one homunculus alive at a time, and it will perish should you take the form of a Greater Dragon or depart from the realms.
 
HOMUNCULUS FOLLOW will order your homunculus to follow you. If it is unable to follow you because it is in a different location, HOMUNCULUS RETURN will bring the homunculus back to you. You may also HOMUNCULUS ATTACK <target> to have your homunculus attack another, though its attacks will be weak without training in Physiology. Finally, HOMUNCULUS PACIFY will command your homunculus to cease its attacks.
 
Most homunculus abilities work on their own special balance, while requiring balance and equilibrium.

: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
By assaulting an opponent's humours, you can afflict upon him several common maladies. Each has several afflictions associated with it, and any afflictions from wracking a humour will come only from this pool. When wracking, you may specify the affliction you wish to use, or you may allow the affliction to manifest at random at the cost of a slight delay in speed. It is possible to wrack an opponent's untempered humour, though this is done at a balance penalty and may be done only via specifying the affliction.
 
Wracking operates outside of humour balance, and may be used off-equilibrium immediately following a symbology ability.
 
The humours and their affliction pools are:
 
Choleric: Nausea, sensitivity, slickness.
 
Melancholic: stupidity, anorexia, impatience.
 
Phlegmatic: clumsiness, weariness, asthma.
 
Sanguine: Haemophilia, recklessness, paralysis.

: '''Works on/against:'''  Adventurers
 
: '''Details:'''
 
By mastering control of your homunculus's arms, you may now use your homunculus to more effectively attack your opponent. In addition to increased damage, your homunculus's damage type will change depending on the prime used to germinate it, and each prime will grant the attacks a special effect:
 
Salt: Magic damage - Attacks will cause bleeding.
 
Sulphur: Psychic damage - Attacks will drain mana.
 
Mercury: Poison damage - extend the next herb balance of the target.
 
Note, however, that if your homunculus becomes separated from you, its attacks will revert to its original, weak attacks.
 
In addition, you may administer one of the primes with which your homunculus was not germinated in order to temporarily grant the effects of that prime. Note that attacks under the effects of administered primes will be less effective than those of its native type.

Your skill in humourism has grown sufficiently to allow you to wrack two humours at once. You must target two separate humours and may specify either the humours to wrack, or the specific afflictions with which to wrack. Specifying the affliction will make the symptoms immediately visible to the target, while generally wracking a humour will not. Truewracking may not be combined with symbology attacks.
 
The afflictions that are available to be truewracked are dependent on the level of the tempers being wracked. One affliction is available when a humour is untempered and at level one, a second becomes available when the humour is tempered to level two, and all are available once the humour is tempered to level three. The afflictions (in their respective order) are listed under AB PHYSIOLOGY WRACK.

Physiology is the study of the biological processes required for life. Alchemists trained in Physiology will find themselves able to utilise this knowledge in two primary ways:

First, Alchemists may manipulate the humours, or vital fluids, of others in order to cause illnesses of varying degree, eventually gaining the power to slay another via spontaneous organ failure. Humourism, as this art is called, is based upon the tempering of another's body, aiming to increase his internal fluid level. An unrestricted Humourist is a force to be feared, but their effects may be countered by the ingestion of the ginger herb and antimony mineral.

The second aspect of Physiology is the creation and control of homunculi. From within a properly equipped laboratory, the trained Alchemist may take a small sample of his own flesh, germinating it into a homunculus. Through the physiological and ethereal bond between Alchemist and homunculus, the diminutive creature may be controlled by its master, able to perform varied tasks from assaulting an opponent to being the eyes, ears, and mouth of its owner.

The skill of Physiology is available to members of the Alchemist class, along with Alchemy and Formulation or Sublimation.

Abilities in Physiology

Humourism Tinker with an enemy's vital fluids.
Syntax: TEMPER <target> <humour>
EVALUATE <target> HUMOURS
Required: 100 mana
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against: Adventurers
Cooldown: 1.70 seconds of humour balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: The body is held in balance by four vital fluids, called humours. Humourism is the science of manipulating these humours via the ether to cause illness in another.

To raise a target's humours, you must TEMPER that humour. Humours can be reduced by the target eating the ginger herb or antimony mineral. The maximum number of times each of a person's humours may be tempered is eight.

Each time you TEMPER a humour it raises the level by 1. If the target is afflicted with afflictions related to that humour, this number may rise.

Each humour will cause the victim to be disadvantaged in some form. The penalties and related afflictions are as follows.
Choleric (yellow bile): Random curing abilities will have a chance of failing. (nausea, sensitivity, slickness)
Melancholic (black bile): Irid moss and potash will have a reduced healing benefit. (anorexia, impatience, stupidity)
Phlegmatic (phlegm): Smoking will have a chance of filling your lungs with phlegm, increasing your lungs recovery time. (asthma, clumsiness, weariness)
Sanguine (blood): Bleeding will increase over time. (haemophilia, recklessness, paralysis)

Only one humour may be tempered at once with this ability; training in Physiology will allow for more freedom in tempering multiple humours.

Evaluation of a target's humours can be done for free.

Cultivation A homunculus will serve you faithfully.
Syntax: CULTIVATE NUCLEUS
GERMINATE NUCLEUS <prime>
HOMUNCULUS FOLLOW
HOMUNCULUS RETURN
HOMUNCULUS ATTACK <target>
HOMUNCULUS PACIFY

Required:
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against: Adventurers
Cooldown: Homunculus balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: You may CULTIVATE NUCLEUS, using a small amount of your own flesh to create a small mass of living tissue. This nucleus can then be germinated from anywhere, so long as you hold in your hands some alchemical salt, sulphur, or mercury, into a full-grown homunculus using GERMINATE NUCLEUS <prime>.

This homunculus, which is a small, imperfect copy of the alchemist who created it, may be controlled via the ethereal bindings between the creator and the created. Initial control is weak, but further training in Physiology will allow for more proficient control of your homunculus.

You may only have one homunculus alive at a time, and it will perish should you yourself die.

HOMUNCULUS FOLLOW will order your homunculus to follow you. If it is unable to follow you because it is in a different location, HOMUNCULUS RETURN will bring the homunculus back to you. You may also HOMUNCULUS ATTACK <target> to have your homunculus attack another, though its attacks will be weak without training in Physiology. Finally, HOMUNCULUS PACIFY will command your homunculus to cease its attacks.

Most homunculus abilities work on their own special balance, while requiring balance and equilibrium.

Wrack Afflict an opponent by assaulting the humours.
Syntax: WRACK <target> <humour|affliction>
Required: 60 mana
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against: Adventurers
Cooldown: 2.00 seconds of balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: By assaulting an opponent's humours, you can afflict upon him several common maladies. Each has several afflictions associated with it, and any afflictions from wracking a humour will come only from this pool. When wracking, you may specify the affliction you wish to use, or you may allow the affliction to manifest at random at the cost of a slight delay in speed. It is possible to wrack an opponent's untempered humour, though this is done at a balance penalty and may be done only via specifying the affliction.

Wracking operates outside of humour balance, and may be used off-equilibrium immediately following a symbology ability.

The humours and their affliction pools are:
Choleric: Nausea, sensitivity, slickness.
Melancholic: stupidity, anorexia, impatience.
Phlegmatic: clumsiness, weariness, asthma.
Sanguine: Haemophilia, recklessness, paralysis.

Note: {{{note}}}
Arms Specialised attacks for your homunculus.

Cooldown: 3.00 seconds of equilibrium
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: By mastering control of your homunculus's arms, you may now use your homunculus to more effectively attack your opponent. In addition to increased damage, your homunculus's damage type will change depending on the prime used to germinate it, and each prime will grant the attacks a special effect:
Salt: Magic damage - Attacks will cause bleeding.
Sulphur: Psychic damage - Attacks will drain mana.
Mercury: Poison damage - extend the next herb balance of the target.

Note, however, that if your homunculus becomes separated from you, its attacks will revert to its original, weak attacks.

In addition, you may administer one of the primes with which your homunculus was not germinated in order to temporarily grant the effects of that prime. Note that attacks under the effects of administered primes will be less effective than those of its native type.
