Default Re: Pyramid #3/109: Thaumatology V

So, I'm really liking Magnum Opus; I've always wanted to see RWBY — I mean BRYWs — incorporated into an Alchemy system. A couple of questions:

1. Has anyone adapted the full list of Elixirs from GURPS Magic for use with Magnum Opus? Similarly, has anyone worked out a more extensive list of Alchemical Reagents?

2. How would Chinese Alchemy differ from this? I'm thinking that instead of four-process BRYWs, Chinese Alchemy would probably use five-element codes corresponding to Earth, Fire, Metal, Water, and Wood.

3. I probably won't be using the Herb Lore stuff from this article; I prefer to treat Herbary as something distinct from Alchemy, not merely “the poor man's alchemy”.
