Conclave of the Verdant Alchemist

Verdant Alchemists walk the line between healer and hazard. Where other rangers rely on steel and instinct, these hunters rely on brews, bombs, and botanical science. They harvest rare plants, monster glands, and glowing fungi to create potions that mend flesh, enhance movement, or rot enemies from the inside out. A Verdant Alchemist is always preparing—crushing leaves into pastes, distilling sap into venom oils, and bottling clouds of spores for later use. In battle, they fight like mobile laboratories, drinking mutagens for bursts of power, coating arrows in toxins, and shattering vials that bloom into choking mists. To a Verdant Alchemist, the wild is not just home—it is an endless apothecary. Every forest hides medicine, every swamp hides poison, and every battlefield becomes a place for new experiments.
