Transmutation Circle. The alchemist can create Transmutation Circles. All created Circles occupy the space you were in when you created it, and can only be activated while touching it. Each Transmutation Circle can manipulate a single element or compound, or a substance comprising of at least half of the chosen material, and this material can not be in a creature's possession. Any objects created by the alchemist's Circles can not have any functions its source material did not. The civilian alchemist's Transmutation Circles may manipulate a single non-biological material of their choice. The civilian alchemist has 6 Alchemic Stamina which it may spend, regaining all spend Alchemic Stamina at the end of a long rest.
