	In Menhir's Fate, there are many different ways to heal wounds. From Cantrips and more substantial though occasionally perilous Rites, to Physicians who use their mundane skills or apothecary consumables to keep people upright. Each requires the healer/s to expend time and roleplay with their patient, after which they will regain some or all of their hit points.		#REDIRECT [[Rules/Physicians and Healing]]

	When performing your roleplay, please use any tools, equipment or props and roleplay out the situation. This may be using bandages to bind a wound, or surgeons tools to roleplay surgery, or smelling salts to revive your patient (These are not an exhaustive list but some examples of healing roleplay). Please make sure any physreps that you are using are larp safe. If you intend to Execute using this skill please also roleplay an attempt at healing your victim. Unlike other executions this is a subtle strike and the call Execute may be called quietly.
