The individual has skill in the
science of inanimate matter, and understands the composition, structure,
properties, and reactions of elements and compounds. Chemistry skill
applies to inanimate matter, not living organisms. Characters with this
skill can, with the proper equipment, perform chemical analysis.
They can also create useful
substances such as chemical smoke (Average),
gunpowder (Average),
smokeless powder (Difficult), tear gas (Difficult),
dynamite
(Difficult), explosive primer (Difficult), and
plastic explosive
(Formidable). (Note: Smokeless powder is the propellant in modern
cased ammunition;
gunpowder is for old-fashioned weapons in which
the powder and shot are loaded separately.)
