Grand Discovery (Su)
At 20th level, the alchemist makes a grand discovery. He immediately learns two normal discoveries, but also learns a third discovery chosen from the list below, representing a truly astounding alchemical breakthrough of significant import. For many alchemists, the promise of one of these grand discoveries is the primary goal of their experiments and hard work.
Awakened Intellect: The alchemist’s constant exposure to strange chemicals has expanded his mind. His Intelligence score permanently increases by 2 points. Eternal Youth: The alchemist has discovered a cure for aging, and from this point forward he takes no penalty to his physical ability scores from advanced age. If the alchemist is already taking such penalties, they are removed at this time.
Fast Healing: The alchemist’s flesh responds to damage with shocking speed—he gains fast healing 5.
Philosopher’s Stone: The alchemist learns how to create a philosopher’s stone, and can do so once per month at no cost. Creating a philosopher’s stone takes 1 day of work.
