For those alchemists who have an inclination for the study, necromancy is a fascinating topic yielding many breakthroughs in the application of negative humours and ephemera. Eventually, the threat of an alchemist’s own mortality catches up with him and if he is so inclined, he seeks a way out. The search for an end to the threat of mortal demise, also called the Riddle of Death, can take an alchemist decades to solve and the answer presented here may never occur to him if he is not willing to trade his mortality for undeath.For those who are, a dose of aqua mortis crafted from an alchemist’s own blood and subjected to an extremely complex process can provide a form of immortality. Though the secret can be gained at 9th level, the skill to actually complete the transformation is usually not attained until much later. Alchemists capable of solving the Riddle of Death generally hold off actually doing so until all of their mortal affairs are in order and the formula they have created is their only hope of survival. This concoction requires one month of constant work, a dose of aqua mortis made from the alchemist’s blood, 5,000 gold pieces in additional materials and rare equipment and an Craft (alchemy) check (DC 45). Failure at the check ruins everything used in the experiment. Success creates a potion that, when consumed, kills the alchemist and revives him as a lich as per the template in the MM. A phylactery must be constructed before the alchemist can actually become a lich.Vampire: ?</blockquote>
