In doing a bit of research for an upcoming game, I turned up this interesting fact.  Nicolas Flamel was a real person and, yes, he was famed for figuring out how to create the Philosopher's Stone.  He and his wife, Perenelle, are rumored to still be alive through use of the elixir of life.

The essence of his reputation is that he succeeded at the two magical goals of alchemy -- that he made the Philosopher's Stone which turns lead into gold, and that he and his wife Perenelle achieved immortality.

Perenelle was actually a serious alchemist in her own right, and worked with her husband on the alchemical quest as his partner.


Cool.
