Alchemist Prime arose from Primus with a deep connection to the elements, and even among the Thirteen his powers straddle the line between science and mysticism. Alchemist's natural intelligence and curiosity are augmented by his personal artifact, the Lenses; permanently affixed into his optics, they allow him to perceive the physical and spiritual cycles of the universe in equal measure. Always in tune with creation, Alchemist's constant quest to understand the mechanisms of change means that he thinks of himself as a mere student of the natural world. Above all, Alchemist trusts his instincts and natural intuition, which rarely lead him wrong.
