Alchemy (Earth-1056)

"Alchemy, it is the scientific technique of understanding the structure of matter, decomposing it, and then reconstructing it. If performed skillfully, it is even possible to create gold out of lead. However, as it is a science, there are some natural principles in place. Only one thing can be created from something else of a certain mass. This is the Principle of Equivalent Exchange."

- Levi Ackerman

Alchemy is the ancient metaphysical science/mystical art of manipulating and/or altering matter using natural energy. These acts are known as "Transmutation", and are divided into three descriptions: Comprehension, Deconstruction, and Reconstruction.
