An overview of medical technology, practices, and ethics.

See Alliance Medicine for more information.

Chatcaavan Medicine

Chatcaavan medicine is heavily influenced by the Chatcaavan status hierarchy, and the distinction between those Inside and Outside. See Chatcaavan Medical Technology for more information.

See Faulfenzair Medicine.

Eldritch Medicine

  • "These make the tisane that helps elders with their joint pains" [1]
  • An elderly Eldritch in the Seni tenant village knows "where all the best plants are, the ones people forget should be used for things like medicine." He makes elixirs and tonics, including one for relaxation.[2]
  • Master Taren mentioned as herbalist[3]
  • Sela, senior manse servant and Reese's tenant, asked to be hired. She said, in part, "...though I can keep house for you as is traditional, Mistress, what I learned first and best was the herb craft." [4]
