Variables

I'm working on an Alchemy system, and I have it so that upon making a potion, you have a chance to level up your Alchemy.

And then I have a little book above the table, and I want it to tell me what level my Alchemy is. But I can't figure out how to display the value stored in the [0018:Alchemy] Variable. D: Is it possible?

\v[18] in a Message should do it.

If you don't want to show a message, you'd need to do some picture eventing to show it.
