Firstplanet: Chemist & Vampire A young but talented female chemist (someone who does alchemist things but in a wizard way) is interested in her brilliant and mysterious colleague, but when she asks him out he swears her to secrecy and confesses to being a vampire, ageless but capable of surviving only by drinking human blood. He is unwilling to let himself get close to her while she is mortal, but refuses to turn her into a vampire for fear that the thirst will drive her to murder, as it once did to him, and because there aren't enough blood banks to support a large population of vampires stealing from them in secret. She accepts his self-imposed isolation, but declares a quest to create a synthetic blood substitute. She spends ten years researching in secret from everyone except the vampire (ten years in which they do experiments together and move from colleagues to friends to best friends as the vampire admits it's better to have loved and lost than never have loved at all). The project eventually succeeds. They kiss, he turns her into a vampire, they reveal their existence to the world and start making everyone immortal and have an extremely fancy wedding with elaborate descriptions of outfits and décor.

Someone has gone through and hastily replaced what was clearly a lot of detailed chemistry descriptions with ridiculous technobabble that doesn't cohere into any kind of usable scientific information. The "fact-checked by chemistry professor Cort Andri-Mara of Whiteharbor University" blurb in the front matter has also been crossed out and a big "CENSORED" graphic printed on top of it.

More Lawful Good pablum.  Author dies.  Have an alchemist see if any of this alternate alchemical system is useful here.

More Lawful Good pablum.  Author dies.  Have some young, flexibly-minded, disposable apprentice alchemist see if any of this alternate alchemical system is useful here; para-baronetcy if they can swing it, horrible death if they can't.
