As we don't have an 'alchemy' skill in CD what would be some skills that encompass it?
I am assuming Heal & Knowledge: Nature? Any others I might be missing?

I made a similar topic to this one in the old forum, the conclusion reached was that Int rolls would determine anything alchemical. 
I'd -love- to see an Alchemy skill added to the server someday. Hydaro knows a thing or two about chems and beverages to use as traps or enhancement in combat, but as a fighter he doesn't always roll high Int.
There is also Craft Potion, but I believe that serves a different purpose altogether.

I was always told that raw Int was used for Craft Alchemy here too. I'll mimic Hyde on this - I'd love to see Alchemy added too.

Would it be possible to use a dummy skill I forget do we have the profession skills here? I could potentially substitute it for that?

I would say (With the skills we have in effect) Knowledge Nature for components, Knowledge Arcana for the process itself, Heal for very specific potions.

Knowledge Nature > Search for components
Intelligence > General Alchemical process
Vanilla d20 > How process goes
