This weekend I’m introducing my friends kids to RPG’s, an exciting day for us as we’ve been friends and gaming together for over 30 years!
One of the boys has expressed interest in playing an alchemist similar to the pathfinder 2e class (based solely on a picture he saw online…has anyone already built a custom class like this?
Basically brewing potions and bombs instead of spellcasting.
There is an alchemist class in the Almanac of Unusual Magic, available on DTRPG. It’s a Gnomish Alchemist but if he’s not down with Gnomes you could make it Human, etc. To get full use of the Almanac you also need the Heroic Fantasy Handbook for its ceremonial magic system, and it’s kind of an “advanced class” that pushes the boundaries of the ACKS system.
Someone from the community might have created an unofficial Alchemist class, too, hopefully they’ll post here if so!
Thank you! I don’t have the Almanac but I do have the Heroic Fantasy Handbook.
Off to buy and cram some more reading in before the game tomorrow.
