Since homonculi are on average 6 inches tall it is a stride in homonculus alchemical formation to make them 6 ft tall. A boon for amateur alchemists and their trials to become a full fledged alchemist. Toward the end an ancient alchemist will visit you. Probably Paracelsus or maybe even the redoubtable Robert Fludd will pop in to give warning of the final test. Very dangerous the last aspects of the education of being a clandestine alchemist for the modern age. (There are others with names you do not know and I won’t tell you. They still live and are part of the secret groups.)
