Knight (FiD)

Starfox's Blades in the Dark fan page

The Alchemist is a master of potions, poisons, and concoctions. With a vast knowledge of chemicals and herbs, they create powerful elixirs that can heal allies, weaken foes, or enhance physical capabilities. They are also natural philosophers, with practical knowledge of science and mechanics. Whether brewing in a lab or improvising in the field, the Alchemist always has something potent up their sleeve.
