an human like being that is created by alchemy. they are made by a mixture of magical herbs and blood or dead bodies. this mixture is put in a jar to grow. they were the original test tube babies. some homunculus are small. they can range from a few inches to 2 feet tall. there are bigger ones that are human sized. these are made more with dead bodies/parts than just blood. the big ones need more power/magic to live. the best way to get this is threw lighting or electricity. the famous example of this is the frankstien monster. in the Hellboy comics, Roger the Homunculus is brought to life with lighting and keep alive with power genertor/big battery in his chest.
