Formula Use
Alchemical principles are based first and foremost on
'mundane' science, but true alchemists learn to weave
together these founding principles with a certain amount of
arcane practice, instilling their creations with power and
potency beyond the scope of simple chemical interactions.
You keep the formulae used for creating these complicated
concoctions in a formula book, often recorded in a personal
code or cipher, with in-built pitfalls and misdirection to fool
and mislead those who attempt to read it without the proper
understanding.
Your formulae function much like the spells they emulate,
enough that they are treated as spells for all other purposes.
Due to your method, however, your formulae are always
treated as having Somatic and Material components, and
never have Verbal components, unless otherwise noted by a
feature you later acquire.
