"[Alchemists] are given a special tattoo made from gold and moroi blood, which gives them traits similar to those of the moroi themselves: a long life and excellent health. Because the tattoo is also charmed with water and earth compulsion magic, it prevents the Alchemist from speaking about moroi in any way that could endanger or expose them." |
Alchemists get the Alchemist tattoo tattooed on their cheeks after they have completed their training.

Appearances[]
Vampire Academy Series[]
In Blood Promise, when Rose Hathaway is in Russia and meets Sydney Sage in an alley behind the Nightingale Club, a strigoi attacks Sydney, and Rose stakes him with her silver stake and intends to leave him there. When it is obvious to Sydney that Rose doesn't know what her job is, she takes out a vial that disintegrates the dead strigoi, leaving behind only a pile of ashes. Sydney and Rose then go to a restaurant to order food, and Sydney explains to Rose who the alchemists are and what they do.
Bloodlines Series[]
Their golden lily tattoo has been seen to be broken. This was found by a moroi, who used it on the ex-Alchemist Marcus Finch. Once the tattoo is broken, the Alchemist is able to use their free will and free thought. In recent history, several to dozens of Alchemists have left the organization due to asking questions or being threatened with re-education.
Sydney Sage has been one of several who have defected from the organization due to falling in love with a Royal Moroi and wondering why the Warriors of the Light are connected to the Alchemist. She also broke her golden lily tattoo under Marcus Finch.
