The Alchemists

If there is something in Fae'Gir capable of standing up to magic, it is always gunpowder, silver, or... Alchemy. The "Magic through Science".

An ancient art that King Gideon has brought back to life, alchemy is an artistry that mixes the knowledge of the matter with the manipulation of it. It is based on the concept of all alchemy: "The Law of Equivalent Exchange". This law, whose history had been lost with the passage of time, implies that in order to obtain something, something of equal value must be offered. Be it time, effort, knowledge, energy... Or all of it in full. This is how alchemists are able to transmute the elements: Once they know all the properties of the element they wish to manipulate, they are able, through symbols and runes, to transmute stone, fire, metal and so on.

The Order of the Alchemists is a chivalric organization that offers two paths: That of being a battle alchemist, a knight in silver armor skilled in combat, or an Alchemist Sage, those who seek absolute control, or the intent to, over alchemy.

Following the rules stipulated by the first Alchemist and King of the Dawnlands, Gideon, and the current leader of the Alchemists, Trevor, those who wish to wear armor begin as squires, and those who aspire to be sages begin as scholars, both studying the art of alchemy.

It is an art that, in addition, also includes the elaboration of potions, and improved materials.
