Last Alchemist
The alchemist fabricates a shimmering illusion of the crystalline orb dissolving into a pool of liquid. They watch intently to see which stranger shows panic, anger, or calculated calmness.The alchemist sets up a hidden alchemical trap that causes the glowing vials to momentarily dim and emit a harmless, ghostly wail if disturbed without consent. This creates a dramatic reveal of the perpetrator's greed.The alchemist sets down a fragile, radiant bird-shaped construct, warning the strangers to defend it at all costs. They then create the illusion of the chamber breaking apart, testing who will sacrifice their safety for the bird.A sealed scroll is passed to the strangers by the alchemist, who challenges them to solve its riddle within the time limit. The glowing glyphs pulse rhythmically, and the alchemist scrutinizes their choices and leadership dynamics.
