"Let the manes put off their terror, let them put off their aqueous bodies with fire.
Let them draw together the bones of the metal.
Selvaggia, Guiscarda, Mandetta,
Rain flakes of gold on the water
Azure and flaking silver of water,
Pallor of silver, pale lustre of Latona,
By these, from the malevolence of the dew
Guard this alembic.
Elain, Tireis, Allodetta
Quiet this metal."
-Ezra Pound
The alchemist is a member of the grazing hedonists faction who resides in 
Bethesda Susa, on the third level of the ruined ward.[1] They are a mysterious figure with a special love for all things liquid.
Character
The alchemist is a hermit who has set up their workshop within the depths of Bethesda Susa. They claim to "dabble" in other states of matter, but purport to be a "connoisseur" of liquids.
The alchemist seems to be well known in Qud, at least amongst other liquid-tinkers. 
ichor merchants will occasionally mention their desire to "plumb the depths of Bethesda Susa" in order to meet the alchemist. 
Hortensa names the alchemist as an "amateur liquid-tinker, poet, [and] merchant", and claims their methods "aren't scientific", warning the player to be careful around them.
Wares
The alchemist is notable for selling one dram of every kind of liquid in 
phials, with the exception of 
water.[2] This includes some exceptionally rare and valuable liquids such as 
cloning draught, 
neutron flux, and 
brain brine.

Combat
Despite being a merchant, the alchemist is by no means weak. When in combat, the alchemist will attack by violently exploding, dealing 
10d10+250260-350 (Avg: 305) damage to anything caught within the blast radius. The explosion is considered neutronic and has a force of 15,000.[3] This kills the alchemist.
However, the alchemist is also quite conflict avoidant: they will immediately cease hostilities and begin fleeing from threats if their hitpoints fall below 99%[4] of their maximum.[5]
Belonging to the grazing hedonists faction, the alchemist normally will not initiate attack with the player or other creatures, but other creatures in Bethesda Susa will attack them, like 
eyeless king crabs or 
lurking beths. Clearing out the floor so no creatures of an opposing faction will meet the alchemist is recommended to prevent untimely neutronic-related death.
Properties
Speaking to the alchemist grants the Quiet This Metal achievement.[4]
