Back in the days when I was just an innocent self-taught beginner in Alchemy, I carried the Aspiring Alchemist with pride and looked forward more complex endeavors. So I remember with fondness the first concoction I did on my own, the Duck in a Box.
I remember carrying those ridiculous Gifts and one tiny innocent Shy Duck to what would become my crafting room, hoping I could craft it quickly and as painlessly as possible for poor little ducky.
I succeeded, and I must confess, a few more duckies shared the same fate.
Do you remember what was the first formula you crafted? (other than the Aspiring Alchemist) How was it?

xd Yeah... I do.
So... While somewhere off in another part of the world innocent Shy Ducks were being transmuted... In another part of the world a little lost Alchemist was wandering the busy streets. Everywhere around her, there were master alchemists, high and mighty -- she wanted to be just like them!
After wandering half a day cluelessly, she gave a heavy sigh and plopped down on the cold concrete floor of an alleyway. She stared at the ground in defeat. When she looked up, a most beautiful person was staring right back. The person smiled and reached out a hand.
She said, "Here, 10 Giant Lollipops. Can you help me craft these?"
...And that was the beginning of a wonderful journey ^___^!!
Congratulations! You have found egg #1
This is where MoMo shared her first concoction with us ^~^ The sound you hear is the duck's realization of it's impending fate xd
Not sure what's going on? Check out ALM guild's off topic forum for some Easter fun!
Giant Lollipops! Indeed what a sweet way to start your journey. Definitely better than the duck sacrifice i committed. I'm starting to think that those first items crafted show a little about the Alchemists personality.
This Larkadroid Alchemist sounds like a kind soul, had to find around! I'd be honored if they could join this conversation! Feel free to invite them aboard!
Back to the Lollipops, i must confess maybe i have just crafted one of those in my lifetime, I can barely remember mingling with sticky sweet stuff.
What happen with those giant Lollipops? Do you know? My poor transmuted ducks ended up in the Marketplace, being sold for a few gold coins... The guilt was heavy on my shoulders and i couldn't stand hearing the muffled sounds coming from inside the boxes... emotion_0A0

Oh gods, it's been so long since I made my first Forumlae... and yet I still haven't reached Level 2.
I believe it was my little Aspiring Alchemist item.
As for the others... it must have been caches, or pink giftboxes, or attempts to make some CI.
I think mine might have been the orb Aggregate ( I can't remember the name exactly). It's been so long now that I can't remember the feeling of being a new Alchemist though. xd

My first was... Orb Aggregates. :u I had fun making them, because I eventually used them in level 3 for the Mint Sundae Sweets Formula. ^^

I actually started playing zOMg because of the orb aggregates xd But by the time I got high enough CL in game to hoard the orbs, I had already passed level 3 emotion_sweatdrop

*lol* I hate it that you have to level down if you get too high. sweatdrop
I think my first concoction was a Philosopher's Cache. Although...the Duck in a Box was the first thing I was actually proud of. I paraded that duck around with nothing but a smile. Hehehe
