Wondrous Item, rarity varies
The Red Stone, the Fifth Element, the Grand Elixir; this item goes by many names, but a single description: the pinnacle of alchemy. They are produced by only a select few who both know their secret and have the moral absence to create them, but when these conditions are met, stones of varying power are produced en masse.
A Common stone has 12 Alchemical Stamina within it. An Uncommon stone has 24 Alchemical Stamina within it. A Rare stone has 36 Alchemical Stamina within it. A Very Rare stone has 48 Alchemical Stamina within it. A Legendary stone has 60 or more Alchemical Stamina within it.

Ultimate Alchemical Agent. While holding a Philosopher's Stone, an alchemist may spend any Alchemical Stamina within it as if it were their own. When a Philosopher's Stone has 0 Alchemical Stamina remaining, it shatters into dust. When an alchemist uses a Circle and spends at least 1 Alchemic Stamina from a Philosopher's Stone, they may use the following Alchemical Specializations:
- Convert Class
Using a Circle of any size, you convert one material you can manipulate into an equal weight of another material you can manipulate on an atomic level. This can transmute biological materials into non-biological materials and transmute non-biological materials into biological materials.
- Nuclear Detonation
Requires Gunpowder Alchemy. Using a Gargantuan Circle, you split the very atoms you transmute. All creatures in a 3000 ft. radius centered on one point within the Circle's range take 50d10 force damage.
- Open Physical Gate
Requires Alchemist's Ride. Using a Gargantuan Circle, you summon a physical Gate of Truth similar to the original that links to a completely different dimension. One creature within 15 ft. of the gate must attempt a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they are restrained by numerous black hands from beyond the gate. At the beginning of their next turn if they are restrained, they must attempt a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, they must attempt a Strength saving throw at the beginning of their next turn. On a failure, they are permanently taken to another version of your dimension. A creature may only traverse through alternate versions of dimensions by use of this Circle or a similar feature (i.e. human transmutation, a false portal).
- Mannequin Creation
Requires Light Guardian. Using a Gargantuan Circle, you create a number of mannequins equal to your Intelligence modifier that are charmed by you and follow your orders.

Well of Souls. If a homunculus consumes a Philosopher's Stone, they regain 1/4 the number of Alchemic Stamina points as soul points, or an equal number of temporary soul points if this would increase them above their maximum.
