Yes. It's rather common for the most part where I'm from, though while anyone could study it, you need an aptitude for it to actually use it. Most alchemists can use it to create simple things ranging from making small figurines, toys, repairing things, some can even use it for healing. While I could do that, my specialty was more combat based for the most part. I could produce fire...provided it wasn't raining.

I can explain how it works to a degree if you want. It's largely science based despite it's looks...though a number of people back home seem to think it magic due to everything it's capable of.
