The chemist is in his house in Rimmington. He explains how to make lamp oil in the lamp oil still for oil lamps, oil lanterns, and bullseye lanterns. He gives sieves for making imp repellent.

During the Biohazard quest, he gives the player touch paper for Guidor.

During Regicide, the player must ask for permission to use the distiller to make a barrel of naphtha.
