Well this idea is evolving in my head as we speak.
I came up with an idea for the stone (even tho saru doesn't like it)
My idea is that once the alchemist gets/makes the stone he grants you the ability to use it only once. He asks weather you want a pholasiphers armor or weapon. Then you can choose what kind of weapon or armor. Once you choose you can't rechoose. I think it be cool. What do you think?
I think if what the alchemist is going to make for you is a weapon or armor, not gold or a source of everlasting life, then naming his substance something other than Philosopher's Stone would be appropriate, and would remove the objection to closely copying old ideas in the game.

Antison: I know you want me to deliver the whole idea but before I do that I want to get minor details such as this knocked out 1st so I don't have to go back and rewrite everything.
Tom: I agree the phalasioher stone is over played I'm open to suggestions as to a sorce of power for the transaction.
Pyro: I know of FMA and its alchemy but I'm not thinking of using any ideas from that show... well maybe some I think a walking talk suit of armor would make a great alchemist haha.
Saru: How would you feel if we used something other then a phalasipher stone in exchange of it?

Still sticking with my original statement.
Also it's spelled philosopher's stone.
Go with something other than the Philosopher's Stone... that idea has been used. Original ideas are better than ones that are based off other already well established stories that people will commonly recognize.

IMHO:
Philosopher's Stones can already be found in many Tv Shows, Games (Such as World of Warcraft and guild wars), and famous books (Like the Harry Potter series)
I think coming up with something that is original is better than using this already well used concept.
