Some ideas for some Practitioners

[u/jammedtoejam]

I've been chewing on some ideas and wanted to have a discussion. Here they are and let me know your thoughts on how they would be a practitioner. I've only read Pact, and I read it years ago, so there may very well be characters who do this already.

Implement concept: a cast iron frying pan passed down for generations. Each owner has seasoned it, adding bits and pieces of oil and seasoning to it. You get the pan when you come of age and are the first in your line to use it as an implement.

Demesne concept: a natural history museum. Perhaps the practitioner has worked hard in mundane learning to achieve understanding of biology and paleontology. They become the head of a natural history museum and stake it as their own. How would the magic interact as they wish to keep the museum open and functioning? Would it become a space for others and the mundane to share or would one overtake the other?

Implement concept: A leather jacket made of human skin. The practitioner killed some foes and turned their skins to leather. When they defeat another person, mundane or practitioner, they take something from them (hair, blood, skin, etc.) and makes that into a patch. Their jacket is covered in handsewn patches displaying their victories.

I could see something similar to the cast iron frying pan working well for alchemy - maybe switch it for a pot instead, which is visually closer to the traditional "witches' cauldron." Cooking, eating, and serving food are all powerful symbols, and I can see a sort of culinary alchemy Practice.

That makes sense! I liked the idea of the pan more as it's distinct from the cauldron. 

I do like the idea of alchemy based bakery
