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

Puzzle Locks

Alchemy, Alchemical device

Custom locks whose design is left to the player or alchemist.

From the book

Custom locks made from at least 2 oz. of iron, steel or another metal, the amount depending on the size of the lock. The book leaves the actual design of each puzzle lock to the player or alchemist making it.

Every alchemical device needs a work area or laboratory plus two tool sets costing 25 G.P. each, one for metal and one for glass. A device takes a week to build (the Rod of Detection takes two), and the chance of success is 75% +2% per level of ability.
