Alchemical Throwing Phials

Alchemy grenades were created as a result of Janier al-Evv's research, with a little help from Ciandra. The research is described in A Treatise on the Combat Uses of Alchemical Phials. Creation and use of grenades uses Alchemy Skill (% for creation, base to wield for use). A shield can be wielded while throwing grenades, which stack to 50.

Use a Phial on an oil to create a single grenade, use a pea Phial on a concentrated oil to create 50 grenades (the skill check is higher when using peas). The type of phial determines the power of the spell. The type of oil determines which spell is cast. The grenades use the Thrown Weapons (Skill), but they cast Phial's Accuracy (Increases Thrown Weapon skill by 500 points) on the wielder so Thrown Weapon does not need to be trained to use the grenades. However, the spell drops when you throw the last grenade, so you will almost always be evaded.

The phials have mana, and an entire stack can be destroyed by using a mana stone on it. (The high-end ones are expensive to make, so be careful.)
