Hi,

I am a new player and I'm currently in my first campaign, I'm a lvl2 Alchemist. I have a couple questions and I'm pretty sure it's a no since I can't find anything about it, but my party has made me question my ability to do this or not. For context, here is the situation:

After our last encounter I received a potion of Invisibility as a reward. Jokingly I mentioned I should sell the potion because im poor and don't have terrible use for the potion at the moment. But a few of the more veteran players told me I really should keep it instead to make more. And that's when I started trying to find if there really is a way that would allow me to take the potion I have, somehow learn to replicate it and go about that. Likewise, would I be able to take this potion and confer the formula from it to add to my Formula Book? Invisibility is a 2nd level formula, so technically it is something I can learn (but not use yet), I just don't know if I could "learn" it that way.

I know in the potion rules you can roll a check to determine "what" a potion is, but since my GM told me what it is, I'm guessing that doesn't mean I know how to make it? I guess I just need clarification on these points:

• Can a formula be learned from a potion as long as it's a learnable formula?
• Does having a potion, and knowing what it is, allow me to recreate the potion using Brew Potion as outlined for my class?
• Can I know a formula before I'm at a level that I am capable of using it in an extract or potion?

If on the off chance I can do what I'm trying to do, then would I just take time to study/make an entry into my Formula Book?

Side Note: I know I could just ask my GM, but I try and be a good PC and do as much digging as I can before I make him figure it out.
