First-Aid and Herbs
If you aren't an empath, getting wounded can be a pain in the ...well...whatever body part your wound is in, but there are a few things you can do to avoid death.
First of all, if you have had the foresight to visit the local empath or apothecary, you may have purchased bandages and maybe a crutch. The latter is useful if you lose a leg or a foot, since it will help you stand and make it to the local healer before you bleed to death.
Bandages are sold as strips of cloth and you can <bandage> <body part> stop from spurting your life fluids all over Thrael. You can also bandage other people with <bandage> <person's> <body part>. Remember, you will resume bleeding once the bandages are removed!
You can also visit your local herbalist and purchase healing herbs, or you can try foraging for them for yourself. There are some items not on the lists below that can be also used for healing, so be sure to explore what Thrael has to offer.
A list of herbs in game and what they heal are as follows:
Eberk; a dark striated leaf - Vitality
Orc Tongue; drooping cerise flower - Minor Wounds
Akylah; a pale green leaf - Bleeding
Jojojopo; spongy moss - Maimed Limbs
Nuial; oblong pod - Mutilated Limbs
The continent of Vash has a different philosophy of medicine, and their healing items look differently. You would recognize them as:
Sticks; honeysuckle-amber stick - Vitality
Wafers; dryad's restorative wafer - Minor Wounds
Bottle; ho hsien-ko medicine - Bleeding
Box; packet of monkey king powder - Maimed Limbs
Vial; tablet of silver sky formula - Mutilated Limbs
