18.5.1 Minerals

(See HELP HEALING LIST, HELP HEALING YOURSELF, HELP CURES, and HELP CURE LIST.)

Minerals abound in Achaea. Learning their properties should be a high
priority for all adventurers.

By the proper use of alchemical minerals you may:
- remove or heal numerous afflictions.
- erect defences that prevent certain afflictions.
- create salves and elixirs, using the Remedies skill (HELP REMEDIES).

Store minerals in the rift (HELP RIFT).

Minerals may be eaten or smoked, in addition to their use as ingredients for practitioners of the skill of Remedies.

The minerals listed below are those that can be extracted and created via the Transmutation skill and can be either used in and of themselves, or combined with other elements into elixirs and salves for beneficial effects. For a list of the rarer minerals found via mining, please refer to HELP RARE MINERALS.
