The Alchemist lives on

His rancid ways trigger disgust, as he comes closer to the light of his own invention he leaves behind any and all appreciation of the existing world...

The world is only here for manipulation and experimentation. Personal hygiene and almost all care for his body has been left far in the past. The pursuit of transcendence beyond this life has ruined his own. He cannot imagine failure...

He barely sleeps, and eating is a chore. A functional addict, his research is truly never ending; it drains his genius on a daily basis. The substances that he surrounds himself with are his life-support. He wouldn’t last a day living like a normal human, nor should he...He is the Alchemist after all.
