==Trivia==
*In addition to pharmacy responsibilities, the apothecary offered general medical advice and a range of services, such as surgery and midwifery. Apothecaries often operated through a retail shop which, in addition to ingredients for medicines, sold tobacco and patent medicines. The apothecaries also used many other herbs not listed.
*Interestingly, the first people who ran the apothecaries where mostly women, who passed their medicinal knowledge from generation to generation. Such women were commonly targeted by witch hunts. 
*In the Unofficial Community Patch, the healer can also heal wounded units, making it very useful for sustained defense.
