Healing

On Ilysador healing is more nature based rather then divine. Healing items are created from natural materials such as plants, insects, animal parts and stones.  Healing potions and magical healing wands are very rare. What can be found is usually from before the Great War. There are no great healing temples, or legions of healing clerics waiting for the wayward adventurer, no paladin to cure the ills of man. Most citi-states have areas that take care of the needs of the sick or injured, they also have shops that sell healing materials known as Apothecaries and Herbalists. 

In Ilysador an abundance of flora and fauna provide miraculous healing qualities.  They can be cultivated and be very common such tenchi mushrooms that can cure wounds. Or they can be very rare and found only in the wild.  



Herbal pots

Akin to healing potions but made from plants (roots, leaves, flowers) so they usually have a bitter taste to them. 

Light Healer Heals 1d8+5 Cost 150gp

Medium Healer Heals 2d8+10 Cost 350gp

Sap Sips

Usually a short branch of a tree whose sap heals wounds. One end of the short branch is a cap. The user pulls of the cap and squeezes the branch and a portion of sap is released. This sap is taken orally and has a light maple taste. The branch is then recapped and can be used for several doses.

Be warned! Most healing items are consumed so you best have a strong pallete.
