Description

Medicine covers treating injuries and illness — from field first aid to long-term care, diagnosis, and surgery. Since this campaign's core mystery revolves around a medical droid, this is a particularly relevant skill.

Common Uses

  • Treating wounds after combat (short-term healing)
  • Providing long-term care to help a patient recover fully
  • Diagnosing an illness, poison, or unusual condition
  • Performing surgery or complex medical procedures

Notes

Medicine is distinct from Resilience — Medicine is what a character does to a patient, Resilience is a patient's own toughness.
