Dune Alchemist

To the Dunefolk, alchemy is less a form of philosophy or science, and more of an extension of the phytology that is practiced by herbalists. However, in contrast to their brethrens’ focus on herbs for medicine and healing, Alchemists utilize various plants and naturally occurring venoms to concoct potent poisons. Though useful for weakening tough enemies, the Alchemists’ art is viewed warily by other Dunefolk, for it is often employed for espionage and assassination. Nevertheless, almost every caravan will contain at least one Alchemist for precisely this reason — the political advantage from the threat of nearly untraceable poisons is not to be underestimated.

Special Notes: The victims of this unit’s poison will continually take damage until they can be cured in town or by a unit which cures. This unit regenerates, which allows it to heal as though always stationed in a village.
