You have worked in a town or a city as an Alchemist. Maybe working for the ruler of the settlement or for yourself trying to earn a living. Working with chemicals and potions has given you a large array of knowledge of how to make such concoctions. Using these skills you can make potions, deadly poisons, or primitive explosives (if your DM allows it).

During the course of a long rest you may make an intelligence check to make a potion of any rarity. The DC of this roll depends on the rarity of the potion you intend to make(Magic items): DC10 for common, DC15 for uncommon, DC20 for rare, and DC25 for very rare. You must be unbound and have access to your alchemical supplies to make use of this ability. Before attempting to make any potion you must have immediate access to the material components (if any) of the spell that the potion most resembles. (potion of healing=cure wounds etc.)
