Alchemist
Alchemist counts the recipes you mix in the Laboratory: each potion, powder or other product you make there counts 1. It is an Anatomy inspiration, visible from the start, with a free first level at 1. See Alchemy for how mixing works.
In the demo, 20 of the 29 products can be mixed, but the real limit is ingredients: an ingredient has to be studied at the Study Table before it goes into the mixer, and the demo’s Science only covers a couple of dozen studies.

Totals are counted from the start, not per level. Buying a level costs Faith from your backpack and gives talent experience; see Talents and Inspirations.
Notes
- You start knowing a single recipe. Every other product has to be found by trying ingredients in the mixer; the Alchemy page explains the rule behind all of them.
