In medieval European occultism, the homunculus is a small, false (artificial) human being created through alchemy. It only stood 12 inches tall. It would usally act as a [[Beastmaster Jugs|Familiar]] for an alchemist. The recipe for making a Homunculus is a bag of bones (human or animal is not specified), human sperm, and skin fragments and hair mixed together and deposited in horse manure for 40 days. At this point, an embryo will develop with a small, transparent human inside. It would need to be nourished with human blood every day thereafter for 40 weeks, still buried in manure. At that point it becomes effectively functional. Homunculus is Latin for "little man" (more specifically "Man (diminutive)"). | In medieval European occultism, the homunculus is a small, false (artificial) human being created through alchemy.

Historical Background
In medieval European occultism, the homunculus is a small, false (artificial) human being created through alchemy. It only stood 12 inches tall. It would usally act as a Familiar for an alchemist. The recipe for making a Homunculus is a bag of bones (human or animal is not specified), human sperm, and skin fragments and hair mixed together and deposited in horse manure for 40 days. At this point, an embryo will develop with a small, transparent human inside. It would need to be nourished with human blood every day thereafter for 40 weeks, still buried in manure. At that point it becomes effectively functional. Homunculus is Latin for "little man" (more specifically "Man (diminutive)").
