| == Alchemy ==
| | '''Alchemy''' was the skill of either enchanting pre-existing items with [[magick|magickal]] powers, or creating magickal items. Producing either an enchantment or a creation involved three things: the presence of two silver cauldrons, some commodities, and performing a sequence of ritualistic actions. In the year 26 AM, [[Mages]] were given new powers and freedom over their elemental abilities, which led to the art of [[Crystalbinding]] taking the place of Alchemy in the profession's skillset. |
| Alchemy is the skill of either enchanting pre-existing items with magickal powers, or creating magickal items. Doing either an enchantment or a creation involves three things:
| |
| | |
| 1) The presence of two silver cauldrons.
| |
| 2) Some commodities.
| |
| 3) Performing a sequence of ritualistic actions.
| |
| | |
| Each ability help file for enchantment will show you the syntax for creating and using that item, what commodities are required, and what actions you need to perform.
| |
| | |
| === How to ===
| |
| | |
| Once you have obtained the necessary commodities, put them in one of the
| |
| cauldrons. If you are enchanting an item (as opposed to creating), then put
| |
| the item to be enchanted into the other cauldron.
| |
| | |
| After doing this, you will need to do either:
| |
| | |
| :BEGIN CREATION OF <whatever>
| |
| :or
| |
| :BEGIN ENCHANTMENT OF <whatever> WITH <enchantment>
| |
| | |
| The exact syntaxes for each one are in the ab help files.
| |
| | |
| After this, you simply have to perform the relevant actions in the proper
| |
| order. Once you've done this, merely type END RITUAL. If you've performed
| |
| everything properly, you will succeed. If not, you will fail, destroying your
| |
| commodities and item (if enchanting as opposed to creating) in the process.
| |
| | |
| In the ab file, you will see an "actions" field. These are the actions you
| |
| must perform for each item.
| |
| | |
| The actions are as follows:
| |
| <pre>
| |
| 1) RING BELL
| |
| 2) CHANT <phrase> (different phrase for different products)
| |
| 3) BANG DRUM
| |
| 4) SPIN AROUND THRICE
| |
| 5) LIGHT CANDLE
| |
| 6) CLAP HANDS
| |
| 7) BURN THE POLYGON
| |
| 8) POINT SWORD
| |
| 9) BURN INCENSE
| |
| 10) PLAY HORN
| |
| 11) STRUM LUTE
| |
| 12) FLIPCOIN
| |
| 13) ROLL DICE
| |
| 14) WAVE ARMS
| |
| 15) CRUSH QUINCE
| |
| 16) WAVE FEATHER
| |
| 17) SQUARE THE CIRCLE
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| Key:
| |
| 10x12,9,3x7
| |
| <pre>do #12 (flipcoin) 10 times
| |
| do #9 (burn incense) once, and then
| |
| do #7 (burn the polygon) 3 times.</pre>
