First-Aid

First-AidTechnicalBasic100 hours
This is the ability to stabilize someone's wounds. Anyone may slap on a bandage to stop the additional damage from a wound, but those that know first-aid can apply bandages quickly and more effectively. Having this skill allows you to stabilize a dying character (damage greater than maximum life points). The dying individual no longer suffers additional wounds for being over their maximum capacity. Furthermore, you can bandage up someone at exactly their maximum life point capacity to where they can continue to fight without fear of reopening the previous injuries (not a good idea however). It takes one full round per wound to apply first-aid, and you need something to act as a bandage. Stabilisation of the dying takes a full minute, as does bandaging a wound if unskilled.
