An alchemist shapes a clay golem beside copper furnaces and a homunculus in a jar, with whales drifting past a sunken city beyond.

Invisibility

Alchemy, Herbal elixir

Makes the drinker invisible for the duration.

From the book

Made from 4 drs. of fern, this elixir turns the drinker invisible for its duration.

Herbal elixirs behave much like potions but wear off far sooner, lasting d6+4 minutes unless noted otherwise. Each starts from a fluid ounce of clear water, uses fresh or dried herbs, and needs a mortar and pestle and a fire. Brewing takes 1-4 hours (half that for an alchemist), with a 90% chance of success plus 1% per level of ability, to a maximum of 99%. Ready-made elixirs sell for at least 200 G.P.
