 The Alchemy skill can be used (with successful check) to identify potions, poisons and alchemical products discovered in the world.  If one has an alchemy kit (10gp 1 load, 2 SUP) the check is made at advantage.  If one has an Alchemy Workshop (500gp, in a fixed location), one can also make any of the alchemical products listed below.  To make a product it takes 1d4 days plus 1 day per 50gp (or fraction thereof) of list price, 0.4 times the list price in components, and a successful alchemy check. If you have an Alchemical Laboratory and a trained assistant, the check is made with advantage.  The alchemical laboratory can also be used to create new alchemical products,the details of which must be worked out with the Campaign Judges.  The Alchemy skill can be used (with successful check) to identify potions, poisons and alchemical products discovered in the world.  If one has an alchemy kit (10gp 1 load, 2 SUP) the check is made at advantage.  If one has an Alchemy Workshop (500gp, in a fixed location), one can also make any of the alchemical products listed below.  To make a product it takes 1d4 days plus 1 day per 50gp (or fraction thereof) of list price, 0.4 times the list price in components, and a successful alchemy check.

-====ACIDS=====+===== Acids =====
  
 Alchemists can distill acids that are made to burn through organic, metalic, or mineral materials. These substances each have specific uses whether it is to help clear Atlantean locks and traps or to burn wounds to slow an opponent down like a venom.    Alchemists can distill acids that are made to burn through organic, metalic, or mineral materials.

 All acids can be used to make an acid bomb.  The acid must be kept in a pottery flask (if the person who carries it falls down, roll DEX check or it will break on him and do damage) and can be thrown up to 50' as a thrown weapon.  If it hits a target, it inflicts 2d4 points of acid damage, and 1d4 acid damage to anyone standing within 5' of the main target.  Additionally, each acid type has a potential damaging effect to target's gear. All acids can be used to make an acid bomb.  The acid must be kept in a pottery flask (if the person who carries it falls down, roll DEX check or it will break on him and do damage) and can be thrown up to 50' as a thrown weapon.  If it hits a target, it inflicts 2d4 points of acid damage, and 1d4 acid damage to anyone standing within 5' of the main target.  Additionally, each acid type has a potential damaging effect to target's gear.
