Description
Its a tutorial on the basic setup of a transmutation circle.If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please voice them in the comments bellow.
Examples:
Figure 1: [link] A circle Template for the novice alchemist.
Figure 2-4, 7,8: [link] This is a very universal tutorial not only explaining one of my transmutation circles, but also giving helpfull clues
Figure 5: [link] Similar to Armstrongs Array, the reaction is taking place in the projectile, not the array
Figure 6: [link] Not mine, but I dont have a proper example...
Figure 9: [link] Take your pick...

Love this, so I definitely will use it for a DND campaign, if that's alright

Hello, I had written you a longer note, but I did not have a login, so it was deleted.

Β we are the center for digital archaeology, a nonprofit dedicated to helping archaeologists, members of tribes and other communities go paperless. In our recent development, we discussed the moment where a person in the field makes a decision that something they are observing is actually a thing β an architectural feature, a coffin, a skeleton, or other cultural or physical or human remains. In this moment, they are "transmuting" their observations into reality.
I was very inspired by your art, and added an icon for this moment in our application. We would be honored if you would be okay with its use?
Assuming so, I will keep you up to date on its use as things go forward.
Many thanks in advance,
Michael

so do you belive this? and if not, does /anyone/ take it seriously, or is it all a just-for-fun art thing?

It's fairly important to a lot of people. Most won't get it and we don't expect it to be by others not following a path.

this is great, but there are a couple of flaws to it. kimblee's type of alchemy released unbalanced components of energy to cause explosions that are NOT contained, yet his transmutation circles don't have anything breaking out of the circle.
π: 0 β©: 1
But the transmutation took place between the two arrays, so it's like it's taking place outside the array. Additionally, this stuff isn't written in stone. If the alchemist knows his sh!t, then he has almost limitless potential on seemingly simple arrays.

well im am an alchemist myself im now ready for transmutataion

I'm loving your transmutation circle science. I was planning on making a comic in the future, and would like to use this science as a base to which I will explain the universe's magic. I was wondering if you would give me permission, and tell me if you wanted it cited in a specific way.
π: 0 β©: 1
Go for it. My permission is pretty much universally granted in these matters.

So, say you combined the ejection node and the 'V' that focuses the reaction into a direction, what would happen?Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Then you've created some really wicked array that's basically shotgun blasting whatever you've sent out the node.
π: 0 β©: 0
This is cool. *clicks favourite button*
I know this reality's alchemy isn't the same as the kind in Fullmetal Alchemist, but I sure wish it were....and yet at the same time I don't (my reasoning is the fear I have for there being wicked people who'll use it for bad and not good). ANywho, nice tutorial.

For a mean cat, you actually strike me as rather pleasant. Thank you!

I'm mean at times, (as in, when somebody can't handle the truth). And you're welcome. ^^

Do the smaller circles in #6 have to be on the edges, or can they be anywhere inside the bigger circle?
π: 0 β©: 1
They can pretty much be anywhere, but I put them on the edges since that has the most turbulence in regards to energy flow.Β

Wouldn't 3 and 5 make the reaction extend indefinitely? How would you contain it to a specific area? In 4, what counts at the "next" object? Couldn't you do the same with those remote-activated pentagon arrays? What's the difference between 6 and 9, other than that 6 can do ingredients in addition to instructions?
π: 0 β©: 1
3 and 5 (and all of them) are controllable by the alchemist. With practice, you can know how powerful to make an energy flux that controls the transmutation. Once the energy gets a certain distance away, it rapidly loses power and eventually vanishes.Β
The next object is really whatever you want it to be. This just reduces the range of the array and basically makes it anything outside the array that the array is in contact with.
9 has instructions that control the entirety of the array. 6 only involves materials inside the direct contact area of the edge nodes.

if you make number 5 does it mattere where you place the symbools? im kind of a noob haha
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, symbols still matter. All that vector does is point the reaction or a part of the reaction to a specific direction.

Yes well sort of I'm an Alchemist Well I study Alchemy. Alchemy dose work but at the same time it dosn't I don't think I can really explain but lets just say what if it dose work then what plp would find out the this would get bad really bad!!.

do these transmutaion circles actully work?????????????
π: 0 β©: 2
No...but that would be SO AWESOME.
π: 0 β©: 1
You have more power than know.Β You are what you think.Β Awaken your eye
π: 0 β©: 0
Ooh maybe I can use this for my alchemy practice (( not joking ))
π: 0 β©: 2
Why? What would be the point? Chemistry kicked Alchemy's ass since it was a pseudoscience. Not to mention that this stuff is all just fun and games. Pretend. Notshurly will describe how you can use X array to manipulate the blood flow in a person's body and cause them to die or clot wounds. But we all know he doesn't actually think you can do it with these drawings and when people talk to him, he knows they don't actually think they're work.

That's what is here for.

I am somewhat confused. What do I need to fix a broken object like a plastic fork?
π: 0 β©: 2
Put it in a simple repair array and use your mind along with the array to guide the forks repair.

you said instructions are wrote in alchemic text do you know where one could find like a translator or dictionary of alchemic text?
π: 0 β©: 1
Pretty much any coded text should work. Though, in fond of Latin. Never used it, but it would be cool.

If one wanted to use these circles how would one put the power in it to actually transmuteΒ
π: 0 β©: 0
If I didn't, people wouldn't be nearly as interested. They don't sell vaporware pretending it might work, might not.
π: 0 β©: 0
It's real. And it works.

alchemy is just science. iΒ believeΒ you wereΒ doubtingΒ transmutation.

Can you explain to me more about the whole circle- double circle thing? I don't get it. I mean I understand what you're saying but all transmutation circles I see (with the exception of Kimblee's) are in double circles because they are technically outside the array but contained to on top of the array or to one other object. I just need some examples and explanations to REALLY know when to use 2 circles, one circle or one circle with the shape piercing it.
π: 0 β©: 1
Let's look at Kimblee really fast: two arrays, one circle. However, the reaction took place on what he touched. Thus, the reactions was happening between the two circles. This is usually what happens in one circle arrays. It's either a part of a bigger array or it's drawn into whatever it is going to react on. A one circle array would do well if it were an array that heats up and you drew it on, say, ice. It would melt the ice.
Two circle arrays go beyond the direct area of the array. It can exceed direct contact and go out to what's above the array or beyond the array.

Your friend Azerik cleared this up for me a long time ago. I didn't have it memorized, so I forgot it, but he did explain to me how the circle system worked and I did understand it (until I forgot it).

Wow just wow... I didn't know there are actual existing texts about the science of alchemy... you even have the alchemical symbols of elements including uranium.

I have updated some of the stuff. It was needed.
π: 0 β©: 0
There are. This isn't it. This is someone that watched Fullmetal Alchemist creating some nicely done fiction.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well actually the stuff on this page is a mix of FMA and real alchemy. They didn't make up the rules for Alchemy. It's based on FMA and real world alchemy. The kind that was used back in older, more ancient times.
