Alkahest, as it was named by Clovis Bray I, is a substance produced by exposing Vex radiolarian fluid to the paracausal influence of the Darkness. It is an essential component in the creation of Exos.

Overview[edit]

Being derived from Vex mind fluid, Alkahest has similarly versatile computational properties, but lacks the virulence of raw radiolarian fluid. As a result of its alteration by the Darkness, it also has paracausal "anti-structural" properties, which allow it to disrupt the "loop/billboard/crash" cycle that plagued early exominds. Its presence in every Exo's cognitive hardware also causes Exos to be inherently sensitive to paracausal influence, such as messages from the Darkness.

Trivia[edit]

  • Alkahest is a hypothetical "universal solvent" once believed to exist by alchemists in the 16th century.
