Alchemists (錬金術師 Renkinjutsushi) are individuals who can wield Alchemy.

Overview

Alchemists are wielders of Alchemy, using their abilities to transmute and craft any material within their vicinity. Some materials can be obtained via excavating minerals from a mining operation. An Alchemist Guild receives the materials from a Coal Miner's Guild who excavates them from the mines and in return, the Coal Miners are given weapons and tools with special abilities forged using Alchemy.

Similar to Treasure Hunters, Alchemists will also seek out certain special materials, especially rare and valuable ones such as the Dogra Core, as treasures for their Alchemy to craft. A Mage’s Magic Power itself can also be considered valuable material for Alchemists to seek out.

All Alchemists desire the Philosopher’s Stone, the great hidden treasure of Alchemy. However, it is near impossible to create, with no known records of any Alchemist ever being able to make it.

Alchemy

Alchemy (錬金術 Renkinjutsu) is the main form of combat for Alchemists, giving them the ability to transmute various materials into all sorts of shapes and sizes, crafting equipment such as weapons to use in combat. Alchemists are not limited to solid materials, intangible elements such as smoke can also be transmuted at their whim. Going as far as converting even living beings into the element they specialise in. Alchemists are even capable of transmuting abstract concepts such as the "bonds" of individuals near them, which would transform the affected person into another with whom they share a form of connection and vice versa.

Unlike Mages or even Curse users, that require a limited amount of power to cast their respective spells, Alchemists have no limit to perform their techniques as their Alchemy stays at full power always. While normal Alchemists in combat do still have a limited stamina, this weakness is not present in mechanical Alchemists who have unlimited stamina.

Trivia

• The continent Guiltina contains a lot more Alchemists than in Ishgar and Alakitasia.
