Potioneer

Overview & Creation

Potioneers are a unique breed of individuals with an interest in combining different items and magics in order to create something new. They see themselves as divine creators, capable of making things possible through the mixing of different components. They enjoy the study of the world and focus their attention on their knowledge and skill rather than mere casting. For them, potion casting is an art form worthy of study and attention. In the world of Eos, a potioneer is revered for their unique skill to produce magics and results that other casters may not be able to produce in the same way. It’s the ingenuity of a portioner that allows for new ideas and creations.    

Study and Practice

The Potioneer puts a lot of value in study and practice. They spend time studying nature, various magic forms, and testing out mixtures in laboratories. Of all the practices, Potioneers are perhaps the most studious, spending time reading books and scrolls. They find themselves just as home within the confines of a library as they would out in nature or in a laboratory. They seem to know the answers to many questions, or at least pretend that they do in order to seem intelligent.  

Being a Potioneer

To Be a Potioneer, you must be studious and vigilant. You’ll want to understand as well why you chose to be a Potioneer in the first place. Do you enjoy the study or do you enjoy seeing the unique reactions your potions can create in the world around you? Were your parents Potioneers or did you fall into this practice? Either way, you have some form of connection to a background of schooling including active courses within laboratories. Many potioneers will set up shop or have a laboratory within a fixed location. Do you have a laboratory or shop of your own or is the world your laboratory?
