Angel Quill Arrowhead
Source Demon Hunter's Handbook; Price 10 gp; Weight —;
This barbed, cold iron arrowhead is alchemically treated to inflict additional harm while embedded in creatures that are vulnerable to cold iron. For every angel quill arrowhead that damages a target with DR/cold iron, the target’s damage reduction decreases by 1. Up to five angel quill arrowheads can affect a single target at any one time, reducing the target’s DR/cold iron by up to 5 (additional arrowheads have no effect aside from dealing damage as normal). An affected target can pull out a number of arrowheads equal to her Dexterity modifier (minimum 1) as a full-round action with a successful DC 15 Heal check. Alternatively, the application of any magical healing causes all angel quill arrowheads embedded in the creature to instantly fall out.
Angel quill arrowheads of silver and adamantine are also available for the same price, and affect creatures with DR/silver or DR/adamantine, respectively. Crafting any type of angel quill arrowhead requires a successful DC 25 Craft (alchemy) check.

Description
This simple clay pot has two sealed, airtight inner chambers
containing alchemical liquids. The jar is thrown as a splash weapon. It
shatters on impact, covering the target with a mixture of the two liquids. One
round later on your turn, the liquids react and explode with concussive force.
The target takes 1 point of sonic damage, is deafened for 1d4 rounds, and must
make a DC 12 Fortitude save or be stunned for 1 round. Creatures within 5 feet
of the explosion take 1 point of sonic damage. The target can use a full-round
action to scrape or wash off the liquid before it detonates, depositing the
material in its square or an adjacent square; the material detonates as normal,
though the original target only takes damage as if it were within 5 feet of the
explosion. Crafting this item is a DC 25 Craft (alchemy) check.

Description
Within this corked vial is a tiny sample of what is known as
“dead air.” Heavy, still, and of unknown origin, pockets of dead air becalm
airships and smother crews in remote parts of the Plane of Air. When you open a
dead air vial, invisible dead air fills a 20-foot-radius area centered on you.
The affected area becomes devoid of breathable air. Creatures that breathe air
must hold their breath or suffocate in an area of dead air, though sound, fire,
and other effects that rely on a stable atmosphere are unaffected. Undisturbed,
the dead air dissipates in 1 minute. A moderate wind (11+ mph) disperses the dead
air in 4 rounds; a strong wind (21+ mph) disperses the dead air in 1 round.

Source PC:AA
This emerald-colored adhesive is a concoction made from
animal glands, urine, and other powerful scents combined with a strong
alchemical binding agent that is difficult to wash off. A target splashed with

ability can detect a marked creature at five times the normal range, note its

Poison Diffuser
Description
This compound comes in a tiny eyedropper. When you combine a
dose of poison diffuser with a dose of contact or ingested poison, the poison
becomes a gas, slowly diffusing into the surrounding air. The poison is treated
as an inhaled poison for 3 rounds, after which the poison and the poison
diffuser are both expended and become inert. Any creature that passes within 5
feet of a diffused poison while it is active must save against the vaporous
toxin.
If you are using spontaneous alchemy, adding urea to the alchemical recipe delays a poison diffuser’s activation time. For every 20 doses of urea (worth a total of 10 gp) incorporated into the alchemical creation process, the time from which the diffuser is added to the poison to the time the poison begins spreading into the air increases by 1 round.

Perfect Ice
Description
This vial contains a large snowflake that melts only at
temperatures of 140 degrees Fahrenheit or above. Perfect ice is an alchemically
engineered form of water that briefly converts any moisture it touches into a
similar state. When a flask of perfect ice is opened or broken (such as by
being thrown as a splash weapon), the snowflake within expands rapidly, forming
a layer of ice and snow with a 60-foot radius along any nearby surface. Any
living creature that touches an area of perfect ice or starts its turn in a
space of perfect ice takes 4d6 points of damage from desiccation as some of the
water in its body crystallizes (Fortitude DC 18 half). Creatures with the water
subtype take half again as much damage (150%) and receive no saving throw. The
ice crystals that form along flat surfaces are large and strong, and are
treated as caltrops. The ice persists for 10 minutes, after which it vaporizes
or reverts to a normal state for its temperature. To avoid the hazards of its
large area of effect, many users propel the vial from a launching crossbow
(Pathfinder Player Companion: Adventurer’s Armory 4) or use similar means to
extend their throwing range.

a target’s wardrobe or amid her personal effects along with a rag soaked in
poison. Spirit of glass is often mistaken for lint or loose cloth, though it
and the abrasions it causes can be identified with a successful DC 15 Craft

Description
A tanglefoot bag is a small sack filled with tar, resin, and
other sticky substances. When you throw a tanglefoot bag at a creature (as a
ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet), the bag comes apart and
goo bursts out, entangling the target and then becoming tough and resilient
upon exposure to air. An entangled creature takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls
and a –4 penalty to Dexterity and must make a DC 15 Reflex save or be glued to
the floor, unable to move. Even on a successful save, it can move only at half
speed. Huge or larger creatures are unaffected by a tanglefoot bag. A flying
creature is not stuck to the floor, but it must make a DC 15 Reflex save or be
unable to fly (assuming it uses its wings to fly) and fall to the ground. A
tanglefoot bag does not function underwater.
A creature that is glued to the floor (or unable to fly) can break free by making a DC 17 Strength check or by dealing 15 points of damage to the goo with a slashing weapon. A creature trying to scrape goo off itself, or another creature assisting, does not need to make an attack roll; hitting the goo is automatic, after which the creature that hit makes a damage roll to see how much of the goo was scraped off. Once free, the creature can move (including flying) at half speed. If the entangled creature attempts to cast a spell, it must make a concentration check with a DC of 15 + the spell’s level or be unable to cast the spell. The goo becomes brittle and fragile after 2d4 rounds, cracking apart and losing its effectiveness. An application of universal solvent to a stuck creature dissolves the alchemical goo immediately. Crafting this item is a DC 25 Craft (alchemy) check.

Price 50 gp; Weight 1 lb.
This bottle of viscous blue oil sublimates slightly when
exposed to air. When poured over water, the oil pools on the surface and takes
1 round to spread out from the point of origin in a 20-foot radius. At the end
of this round, the oil flash-freezes the surface of the water, creating an ice
sheet over the affected area. Any 5-foot square of this ice can support up to
200 pounds of weight. Weight in excess of this amount causes the entire sheet
to crack and quickly break up. This ice sheet becomes unstable and breaks up on
its own after 1 hour, or 20 minutes in a hot climate. Any creature whose bare

of rusting powder to a metal lock or trap as part of using the Disable Device
skill, you gain a +5 alchemical bonus to open the lock or disable the trap, but
there is a 75% chance that the mechanism is destroyed and cannot be used

cannot be unlocked (but still counts as locked for the purpose opening the
locked object). A destroyed trap mechanism immediately triggers the trap. If
you fail the DC by 5 or more, the powder also lands on an object in your square
(including possibly your armor or weapon), dealing 5 hit points of damage to
the object.
Rusting powder is sold in a paper tube; you apply it by tearing the ends off the tube and blowing the flakes into the target device. Rusting powder does not affect gold, silver, copper, bronze, brass, or mithral, but easily affects iron, steel, and adamantine.

Description
These silver, alchemical powders have a gritty consistency,
appearing at first glance to be simple metal shavings. When poured on a weapon
and placed over a hot flame for a full round, however, they melt and form a
temporary coating on the weapon. The blanching gives the weapon the ability to
bypass one kind of material-based damage reduction, such as adamantine, cold
iron, or silver. The blanching remains effective until you make a successful
attack with the weapon. Each dose of blanching can coat one weapon or up to 10
pieces of ammunition. Only one kind of weapon blanch can be on a weapon at one
time, though a weapon made of one special material (such as adamantine) can
have a different material blanch (such as silver), and counts as both materials
for the first successful hit.

Woad Painting

Price 300 gp (kit), 60 gp (paint, 1 block); Weight 1 lb. (kit), — (paint, 1 block)
Description
Though associated with the woad plant, the alchemical
ingredients of this blue paste can vary considerably. When preparing a spell,
you can grind the spell’s material components and mix them into this paste to
paint the components directly onto your flesh, allowing you to cast that spell
as if you had applied Eschew Materials. Additionally, by painting complex woad
designs that symbolize gestures for 10 minutes and succeeding at a Spellcraft
check with a DC equal to 15 + the spell level, you can also cast the spell as
if you had applied Still Spell. You can have only one spell painted on you in
this way at a time, and if you cast the prepared spell or the paint is removed
for any reason, the effects of the woad paint are spent.
Woad paint is sold in small, concentrated blocks (costing 60 gp each) that must be ground into paste on a wooden or stone pallet with a small amount of water and material spell components. A typical kit contains a pallet and 5 small blocks of paint. One block produces enough paint for 10 component designs or one stilled spell design. Woad paint has no benefit for a non-spellcaster.

Essence Of Independence
Description
When ingested, this thin serum awakens your potential for
independent action. If you are under the influence of a mindaffecting effect,
you receive a new saving throw with a +4 alchemical bonus to break the effect
(you can gain this benefit only once per day). If the serum is ingested by a
bonded creature such as a familiar, animal companion, bonded mount, or
homunculus, the creature ceases to be bound to its master’s will for 10
minutes. It gains a +2 morale bonus on attack rolls, saving throws, skill
checks, and ability checks, and becomes interested in finding its own way of
doing things. Its attitude toward its master might change drastically during
this time, depending on how the master has treated it in the past. As soon as
the duration of this effect ends, the creature becomes bound to its master’s
will again.

Poison Ward Salve
Description
This herbal salve can be applied directly to the skin to
prevent the effects of contact poisons. If a creature touches a contact poison,
but you apply the salve within 1 round of contact, the victim rolls the save
twice and uses the higher result.

Smelling Salts
Source PRG:APG
These sharply scented gray crystals cause people inhaling
them to regain consciousness. Smelling salts grant you a new saving
throw to resist any spell or effect that has already rendered you unconscious
or staggered.
If exposed to smelling salts while dying,
you immediately become conscious and staggered,
but must still make stabilization checks each round; if you perform any standard
action (or any other strenuous action) you take 1 point of damage after
completing the act and fall unconscious
again. A container of smelling salts has dozens of uses if stoppered after each
use, but depletes in a matter of hours if left opened.

Stillgut
Source PRG:ARG
Drinking a vial of this bland, bluish liquid grants you a +5
alchemical
bonus on Fortitude
saves to avoid nausea or sickness for 1 hour. If you are already nauseated,
you can drink stillgut as a move
action. Drinking it in this fashion grants you a second saving throw
(without the +5 bonus). Goblins often use stillgut so they can choke down meat
or other foods in stages of rot or decay.
Twitch Tonic
Description
This thick syrup is extracted from bitter herbs and enhanced
by alchemy to ward against sleep, paralysis, and the staggered condition. If
you drink twitch tonic, you gain a +2 alchemical bonus on saving throws made
against these effects for the next hour. If you drink twitch tonic while
suffering from any of these effects, you may immediately roll another saving
throw against the effect (with the +2 bonus); you may gain this particular
benefit only once per day. You can administer twitch tonic to an unconscious or
paralyzed creature as a full-round action, similar to administering a potion.

Vapors Of Easy Breath
Description
This waxy ball of resin and herbs is stored in a large glass
jar or other airtight container. When the jar is opened, it instantly
evaporates into a soothing vapor that renders the lungs of any adjacent creatures
resistant to inhaled poisons, diseases, and irritants such as choking smoke.
Each creature within 5 feet of the jar when it is opened gains a +5 alchemical
bonus on saving throws against such effects for the next 10 minutes. If already
affected by an airborne affliction, an affected creature can immediately
attempt another saving throw against the effect (with the +5 bonus); a creature
can attempt only one such additional saving throw in a 24-hour period.
