Hello, so i know that there are plenty of threads on this, but none of them are really specific to what my dilemma is. I know that when multi classing, you'll lose out on important pieces, especially with the sorcerer class i am using, but i was wondering if i could mix a sorcerer with an alchemist? I am not too keen with needing the mutagens/bombs/etc., primarily, my focus is on the making of poisons, as my character is a CE drow sorceress with a sadistic streak a mile long, and giving her the ability to craft toxins and other nasty things i think would suit her character well. So my question is this; is it possible to give her the ability to craft such things as an alchemist can, without doing too much determent to her sorcerer class?
Anyone can put ranks in craft: alchemy and use it to make poisons.

And being an elf, you can actually live long enough to complete some!
Buy the ability with hard-earned gold instead of multiclassing.
Amazing Tools of Manufacture (Alchemy) is an item which will allow you to craft a poison up to a value of 2000 gp in one hour. (once per day)
Anyone can craft with Craft (Alchemy). The rules are very slow for mundane items though. Master Alchemist helps speed it up a little though.
The Alchemist class does get Brew Potion (which you can take as a Feat) and a bonus to Alchemy, but anyone can use the Alchemy rules.
@Wonderstell, thanks for the link over!
Dipping one level into a rogue (poisoner archetype), this way you get a bunch of class skills, skill points, and most importantly poison use. Also, it makes sense for a drow, they are sneaky devils after all. Next, use craft alchemy to create minor poisons, or just buy them until you can buy a Poisoner's Jacket?
