Editing Medicine

[[File:MedicineIcon.png|left]]

Life is fragile, but you know how to stitch it back together—sometimes with herbs, sometimes with hope.

The '''Medicine''' skill is the art of mending the broken, treating wounds and illness alike, whether in the chaos of battle or the quiet of a sickbed.

As your mastery deepens, so does your ability to diagnose hidden ailments, perform intricate procedures, and stretch dwindling supplies. At its pinnacle, the skill reveals the mind’s troubles—addictions, frailties of the spirit. And in those final moments, when death reaches out, the most skilled healers can pull a soul back from the brink.
