The following traits apply to items. Some specific categories of item have special traits-such as elixir or scroll-described in their sections.

Alchemical: Alchemical items are powered by the reactions of alchemical reagents. Unless otherwise noted, alchemical items aren't magical and don't radiate a magical aura. Characters can Craft these items only if they have the Alchemical Crafting feat.

Consumable: An item with this trait can be used only once. Unless stated otherwise, it's destroyed after activation, though part of it might be recoverable for other purposes. For instance, while a potion is consumable, the vial it comes in is not destroyed when you drink it. Consumable items include most alchemical items as well as ammunition, oils, potions, scrolls, talismans, and other magical consumables.
