Mineral

Mineral magic, a subschool of Transmutation, is the province of magical alchemists. They have learned the secret of turning lead (or any other mineral matter) into gold. They can undermine stone bridges and buildings, and the most powerful can even turn living men into cold marble statues. They can also forge weapons and create items of extreme magical power.

Mineral magic cannot be combined with any other school of magic unless the mage is a full Transmutationist.

As with all magics, there are many secrets that have been lost to the ages.
