There are a large number of alchemists in "the Witcher-verse". Like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullmetal_Alchemist| Fullmetal Alchemist], a japanese manga series, the world of [[Witcher series|''the Witcher'']] is a fictional universe in which alchemy is one of the most advanced scientific techniques. |
