Class Abilites:
Alchemy (Su): Alchemists are not only masters of creating mundane alchemical substances such as alchemist's fire and smokesticks, but also of fashioning magical potion-like extracts in which they can store spell effects. In effect, an alchemist prepares his spells by mixing ingredients into a number of extracts, and then “casts” his spells by drinking the extract. When an alchemist creates an extract or bomb, he infuses the concoction with a tiny fraction of his own magical power—this enables the creation of powerful effects, but also binds the effects to the creator.
Bombs: 4/day 1d6+3 DC-14
Mutagen (Su): At 1st level, an alchemist discovers how to create a mutagen that he can imbibe in order to heighten his physical prowess at the cost of his personality. It takes 1 hour to brew a dose of mutagen, and once brewed, it remains potent until used. An alchemist can only maintain one dose of mutagen at a time—if he brews a second dose, any existing mutagen becomes inert. As with an extract or bomb, a mutagen that is not in an alchemist's possession becomes inert until an alchemist picks it up again.

When an alchemist brews a mutagen, he selects one physical ability score—either Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution. It's a standard action to drink a mutagen. Upon being imbibed, the mutagen causes the alchemist to grow bulkier and more bestial, granting him a +2 natural armor bonus and a +4 alchemical bonus to the selected ability score for 10 minutes per alchemist level. In addition, while the mutagen is in effect, the alchemist takes a –2 penalty to one of his mental ability scores. If the mutagen enhances his Strength, it applies a penalty to his Intelligence. If it enhances his Dexterity, it applies a penalty to his Wisdom. If it enhances his Constitution, it applies a penalty to his Charisma.

Brew Potion (Ex): At 1st level, alchemists receive Brew Potion as a bonus feat. An alchemist can brew potions of any formulae he knows (up to 3rd level), using his alchemist level as his caster level. The spell must be one that can be made into a potion. The alchemist does not need to meet the prerequisites for this feat.
Throw Anything (Ex): All alchemists gain the Throw Anything feat as a bonus feat at 1st level. An alchemist adds his Intelligence modifier to damage done with splash weapons, including the splash damage if any. This bonus damage is already included in the bomb class feature

Personality/description:
Personality:Marcus is at a mix path at his point in his life, he is starting to have a complex that he is suprior to regular humans though he wants them to like him still. He looks on most situations as he does his Alchemy, so sometimes he treats people as they igrediants to help solve the formula of the situation.

Description: Marcus stands a little of 6ft tall, and has a average build. His skin is blue and is covered in relgious tattos and brands that were a result of the rituals his father put him through. He has short black hair. He wears black duster and leather armor covered in assorted junk ranging from crowbars to vials of ink. He usually wears a black wide-brim hat to help cover his face. During the day he wears a white beaked doctor's mask with a black hood. Since he is not allowed to have weapons none can be seen on him, he started taking jobs as ditch digger and at the docks so it was normal of him to carry heavy tools such as a shovel and crowbar.[/b]

Shining Water Consortium aka the Stonewell Practice:
When citizens of Korsova hear the name Stonewell they think of a glorious family of Chelixian blood that helps the sick and dying of all classes. There apprentices work the poorer side of the city at low rates while the more experience tend to the richer and higher up nobility. They even started a practice that allows more to come learn there ways and help spread the healing aura of Imoedae’s protection, the Light in the well consortium helps by offering training to lower class to help assist them in delivering there miracle cures. They named there practice Shining Water, as an homage to both there method of healing by extracts and potions, but also of the Shining Lady Imoedae. Many revere there work and how they offer a service priced for all classes in the city. All was going good for the Shining Water Consortium until the day he was born……..Marcus.

Background:
Colvin Stonewell couldn’t believe his eyes the day youngest son Marcus was born, a fear that plagued that back of his mind was now a reality. His son Marcus was born showing the demonic blood that Colvin thought was eradicated along time ago from his family bloodline. Marcus was covered in blue skin and had a tail that was coiled around his little body. Colvin thought to kill him right there, but his wife, Meredith, reasoned with him with the scripter’s of Imoedae. Colvin knew he couldn’t kill his son even though the child could bring there families past back to light. (The Stonewell family was once known as the Kor’telli, and to gain power the used mutagens and certain extracts to infuse there blood with that of demons to gain an edge over there rivals. But the hunger for power nearly destroyed them so, the new generations left the old behind and moved to Korsova. There they devoted themselves to healing the sick and to the shining lady Imoedae. They made all there previous knowledge of mutagens and those extracts and made them forbidden to learn within the family.)

Colvin decided to keep Marcus hidden from the public. They made up an illness for him so people wouldn’t try to see him. Marcus was almost a prisoner in the Stonewell Manor he could only keep to the up stairs and away from most of the public rooms, though he spent most of his young days with his mother. As he got a little older, Colvin put his boy through torturous rituals of various divine practices to try and change his tainted blood. The young tiefling didn’t cry through the various brandings, scarring or even the tattooed scriptures. Only time he did is when he saw it didn’t work, Marcus grew up hating how he looked and trying to gain his fathers affection. Many of the family members treated him like a bad rash, from his siblings to his grandparents. They all looked to him as a potential risk to the family name. His Uncle Victor and Mother were the only ones that seemed to care for him. They were the only ones that help keep his sanity inside the house all his years growing up.

As Marcus reached the age when all Stonewell’s began there training to become a Chirurgeon for the Consortium. He begged his father to be his mentor and can still remember his look of disgust when he refused him. Though his father said if he could find some one inside the family willing to train him then he could start the training but would have to reach a high degree of expertise before he would consider him to be apart of the consortium. Marcus went to his Uncle first and he was ecstatic to be his teacher. (Uncle was a black sheep of the family and believes they should ban the old formulas.)
Victor even figured out a way to take Marcus out with out exposing him, he created an outfit that covered all his skin and then had he wear a doctor’s mask for the face. He would explain to the people that his nephew had a weak immune system and had to avoid germs and went away from a sickness in fear people would be scared of him. With that Marcus began his journey to become a Chirurgeon like a true Stonewell.

Marcus excelled at his studies, the motivation of his fathers admiration pushed him to be the best at it. His Uncle wasn't suprised at how well his nephew took to the art. After a few years of training, Marcus asked his Uncle why his father didn't try to use alchemy to clear his tainted blood instead of those asinine divine rituals that just resulted in body mutilation. His Uncle just smiled and told him that he would find out soon enough. The next week Victor took Marcus to a fishing shack on the eastern docks of Old Korvosa. There he showed his nephew the forbidden texts and shared the past secrets of the Kor'telli family. At first Marcus didn't know about following his Uncle's belief in the old methods being used to benefit Consortium, but was bought in with the ability to manipulate blood with mutagens and thought he could maybe get rid of the demonic blood within him.

The two worked in Victor's hidden lab sporadically so they didn't let the others catch on to there secrets. During Marcus's work there the only disturbances he had was an old fisherman(Gaedren Lamm) swinging around a latern complaining all about how he was ruining his fishing spot for his night fishing. Marcus just dismissed the man as he could never realize the important he did. What Marcus didn't realize how vindictive the Fisherman was, he followed Marcus and Vincent back to the Stonewell Manor and smiled maliciously as a dark plan came together in his demented mind.

As Marcus and Vincent went to lab, they had no idea that Gaedren Lamm sent a anonymous letter to Colvin telling him to go to the fishing shack. When the pair arrived they were suprised to see Colvin looking down in disapointment at the whole unholy place. As Marcus tried to explain his father smashed him with his fist and drew his sword. "I knew you would be curse on the Stonewell family and I should of killed you when you were born!" As he said that he raised his sword to kill his kin when Victor tackled him. The two brothers began to fight, Marcus tried to stand up and stop them but was still dazed all he remembered next was a latern busting through the window and ignited the materials. As the flames rushed towards him, his vision blurred into darkness until was black.

Marcus awoken to the crackling of kindling mixed with guard alarms in the distance. He looked around and saw the charred reamins of both his Uncle and his father in front of him. He wanted to try and do something but the pain and emotion overtook him, he went numb as the guards put the manacles on him and dragged him off. As Marcus was sitting in the jail cell he just stared at his blue hands, and kept muttering "Why didn't I burn up with them? They always said my blood was weak and cursed but it saved me.." Marcus went in a surreal place, everybody always told him he was weak and cursed from his demonic blood. But now he lives cause of it, his surrealness turns into a confusion. Guards came by to tell him something but Marcus didn't pay attention. His mother came by the cell almost in tears and Marcus started coming back to reality as she apporached him. She looked to the guards and said he was a student that they took pity on his tainted bloodline. She broke out in tears as she told the Captain that he wasn't her son. That was a last straw for Marcus he just lost two of his greatest mentors and now his mother renouced him as her son he just fell to the ground in tears. The days went by waiting for the arbiter to make his judgement, but another witness was found seeing a shadowy figure throwing the latern into the shack and the orignal witness a dirty fisherman disappeared after he told the authorities. Not being around Tieflings much in Korsova, and with that creature being apart of a fire resulting in the death of City treasure Colvin Stonewell. So they let Marcus go but forbid him to carry weapons at all in the city since most believed he did kill the two brothers. As he was leaving the guards ask him what his last name was he turns to them and says "Kor'telli, Marcus Kor'telli. with that he left into the public for the first time without his mask. The crowds noticing him booed him, word had spread and many believe he was guilty of killing the two brothers. Not knowing where to go, and being unwanted by the main masses he went to a familiar place. Arriving at the burnt wreckage of the burnt shack, as he searched through debris he found pieces of the forbidden formulaes and the casing of a destoryed lamp. As he stared at the lamp, he knew he had seen it before but he couldn't figure out where he saw it before. As he collects the burnt papers and the busted latern a cloaked figure comes up to him. His mother walks towards him with tears in her eyes, she explained the family would have him killed if she didn't disowned him, she turns and calls over a man carrying a chest. She told him his uncle left is fortune in his will to Marcus. She gives him a hug and tells him she is sorry again and warns him that his siblings will hurt him if he tries to tell people he is a Stonewell. Marcus hugs her for the last time and takes the money. He looks out to the water, and decides he will show his siblings that the cursed one will become greater then all of them.

Marcus spends his aquired money getting a small basement apartment where his lab is, as he started back working on his alchemy he focused on the arts of mutagens and transformation to help improve himself. As he started up his new lab, the memory of the latern reapearred in his mind it belonged to that fisherman. He took some digging but he found out that man went by the name of Gaedren Lamm. He has two goals now to find this Lamm character and seek revenge for his mentors deaths. And the second proving to his former family he is more worthy then them of the family legacy.
