# Background
Jeppe is the third son of a wealthy manorial lord in Scandinavia.
While his elder brothers had the regular martial training, he was
educated at the bishop's court and later sent to the continent to
study.
He has most of his studies from Montpellier, but has also taken
years to travel across Europe to visit several universities and
cities.
His main interest is alchemy. In Montpellier he got into a peculiar
circle of students with a keen interest in alchemy and mystical arts.
They were all essentially good boys, just possibly a little over-ambitious
and prone to pride. They ended up summoning a demon who granted them
all different false powers. Jeppe learnt figurine magic. It took some time
before they realised what they had done, and the circle broke up.
Jeppe, like most of the others left Montpellier to complete their studies
elsewhere.
Returning to his native lands, he will set up shop in a major city
to make a living.
However, he is adventurous, and he will need to travel extensively
in the search for rare ingredients and new knowledge.

**Lab Total:**
Intelligence (5) + Academic Ability (5+) + Philosophic Bonuses
This Reagent is typically placed into a
clay ball with two compartments to contain
each of the two parts of the formula. When
mixed (such as when the clay is broken by
an impact), these components combust into
a eight-foot-diameter sphere of very hot fire
that inflicts +15 damage should it hit some-
one (such fire would normally inflict +5 dam-
age). This fire cannot be extinguished with
water, but must be beaten out.
(base 4, +2 Substantial, +1 Size)
# Equipment and stuff
+ pelt from the wolves of Öland and and the strange organ that allowed them to breath fire from one of them.
+ An oak leaf and an acorn from Fågelön.
+ A book on an unknown hedge tradition from the Bjornar tower in the starless regio.

Autumn 1221
: Story: 8xp and 5 conf pts (the Danes with the faerie curse)
Alteration: Substantial
Winter 1221
: Read Philosophia 16½xp (The Book Of Life’s Merits (Liber Vitae Meritorum) by Hildegard von Bingen)
This formula creates two pints of strong
acid from a weaker acid such as vinegar, and
a number of mineral components. This acid
is enough to cover an arm-sized object. If it
is poured on a single person, it will inflict
+10 damage. This acid will also dissolve
stone and base metal, and rot wood in an
instant; an object the size of a wand, lock,
or small bottle can be affected. The acid will
dissolve precious metal in about two min-
utes. The only substance proof against the
acid is glass.
(base 5, +2 Substantial)

This metal is a purified form of iron cre-
ated in the alchemist’s laboratory. It can then
be forged by any smith capable of working
steel. Objects made of this steel are harder
and more resilient to damage without affect-
ing its weight. A blade of alchemical steel
need not be sharpened so frequently and has
a +2 to damage. Metal armor gains a +2 to
its Protection. The formula creates enough
Reagent to make a dagger; three doses would
make a sword, and six doses would make a
suit of partial armor.
(base 10, +2 Substantial)

This Reagent must be kept in a sealed
container, for when opened the oily liquid
evaporates into a thick gray fog. When fully
evaporated, the fog fills about a hundred cu-
bic paces, the size of a large room. In still air
this fog is impenetrably dark, but its effect is
lessened by wind.
