Alchemic Powder red rune

Alchemic Powder (Red) carries one red rune. Like every alchemic powder it is only sold by the town Apothecary, 20 a week from its first tier, at 5 copper each, and no recipe makes it. Two of them make a Healing Potion at the Laboratory.

Its main use is topping up a mix by exactly one red rune. Clay, Sand and Flesh carry the same single red rune, but each has to be studied before the Laboratory accepts it; powders are known from the start.

Notes

  • Powders alone can make every alchemy result. With the three-slot Laboratory II and the Apothecary at its second tier, any of the 29 rune totals can be reached with powders and nothing else.
  • Powders never appear on the Folio’s rune pages, which list only ingredients you have studied.
