Master Alchemist

The master alchemist is a spellcaster who specializes in producing potions and elixirs that reproduce the effects of spells of 4th level or higher. Even spellcasters who dabble in alchemy gain the ability to improve the rate at which they can produce potions, which for adventuring spellcasters can reduce the amount of time they must spend preparing for their next quest. At its highest levels, the alchemist prestige class allows spellcasters to create potions that reproduce some of the most powerful magical effects available.

Requirements:

Skills: Alchemy 10 ranks, Spellcraft 10 ranks.
Feats: Brew Potion, Magical Artisan, Skill Focus (Alchemy).
Spellcasting: Ability to cast 4th level arcane spells.

Hit die: d4
Skill Points: 2 + Int modifier.

BONUS SPELLS: A master alchemist's training focuses on magic. Thus, when a character gains a new level of master alchemist, she gains new spells per day as if she had also gained a level in whatever arcane spellcasting class she belonged to before she added the prestige class.
