# Materia Medica ## Foraging A character may spend time during rest, travel, or downtime between adventures foraging for plants, animals, or minerals from which remedies or toxins may be derived. To forage ingredients, a character must make an Intelligence (Nature) or Wisdom (Survival) check. The result of this check should be compared to the foraging DC table appropriate to the seasonal and regional context in which the character is foraging to determine what, if any, ingredient materials they were able to source. A character must spend 1 hour foraging to obtain enough of a material to create one full, effective dose of its medicinal or poisonous product. This time encompasses searching, harvesting, and safely storing the materials, as well as travel time to and from the material's location. For every hour spent foraging, the character may harvest a different ingredient from the environment, as long as its foraging DC falls under their original Intelligence (Nature) or Wisdom (Survival) ability check total. Each listing of the tables provides; common names of the material: a brief description of its appearance; the useful parts of the material and the forms the medicine or poison might take; the specific effect of the medicines or poisons that might be crafted from the material; and it's foraging DC, colour coded to indicate if the material can be used to craft medicine (red), poison (green), or both (purple). A single material might have multiple possible products, but only one may be produced at a time. An easy shorthand is that a comma means "and", while a semi-colon means "or". ## Crafting The brewing of medicines requires access to a herbalism kit and the proficiency to use one, while brewing poisons requires a poisoner's kit and the proficiency to use one of those instead. An apothecary's kit could be utilised as both a herbalism and poisoner's kit in one, though proficiency with both would be required to use it effectively. The herbalism kit and poisoner's kit each contain 5 vials in which to properly store and preserve medicines and poisons for use. Additional containers must be purchased and secured if a character wishes to craft and carry more products at once than these kits can hold. ##### Tools | Item | Cost | Weight | |:---|:---:|:---:| | Apothecary's Kit | 65 gp | 4 lb. | <p style="text-indent: 40px"> ***Apothecary's Kit.*** This kit contains the necessary tools, chemicals and containers for the crafting of medicinal remedies or poisons from raw harvested materials. This includes supplies such as safety gloves, clippers, mortar and pestle, binding agents, distillation equipment, and a small cauldron. It also includes up to 8 containers for the safe storage and preservation of medicines or poisons created using the kit. Proficiency with herbalism kit and poisoner's kit let's you to add your proficiency bonus to any ability checks made to craft or identify medicines or poisons using this kit. \columnbreak ### Brewing Medicines In order to brew or prepare a medicine from raw materials using a herbalism or apothecary's kit, a character must use a full dose's worth of ingredients, spend 1 full hour, and make a DC 15 Intelligence check. A successful check provides a medicine of the desired effect (of which the ingredients are capable). An unsuccessful check expends the time and materials with the outcome often a useless vial of greeny-brown water. For every additional hour spent preparing a single dose of medicine, the DC is lowered by 1. Additional ingredients may be added to a concoction if they share an effect outcome with the primary ingredient. For every additional full dose's worth of an ingredient contributing to the preparation of a single dose of medicine, the DC is lowered by 1. ### Brewing Poisons In order to brew or prepare a poison from raw materials using a poisoner's or apothecary's kit, a character must use a full dose's worth of ingredients, spend 1 full hour, and make a DC 15 Intelligence check. A successful check provides a poison of the desired effect (of which the ingredients are capable). An unsuccessful check expends the time and materials with the outcome often an unfortunate case of unintentional self-affliction. For every additional hour spent preparing a single dose of poison, the DC is lowered by 1. Additional ingredients may be added to a concoction if they share an effect outcome with the primary ingredient. For every additional full dose's worth of an ingredient contributing to the preparation of a single dose of poison, the DC is lowered by 1. A target creature subjected to a poison made this way must succeed a Constitution saving throw equal to the DC used during the brewing process + 1 for every additional hour spent. If a poison would cause immediate damage to the target, that target takes half damage on a success and shrugs off all other effects. Ongoing damage does not effect a target who succeeds their save. The saving throw ability versus poisons made this way is Constitution regardless of whether the effect would ordinarily call on a different ability save. ## Available Feat ### Apothecary *Prerequisite: Proficiency with herbalism kit or poisoner's kit.* <br>You are well versed in exploiting the properties of nature's flora and fauna. Any time you are brewing a medicine or poison with the use of a kit, you may choose to gain one of the following benefits: <br> * While fulfilling the complete ingredient requirement of a medicine or poison, you take half the time usually necessary to brew each dose. * While taking the whole time necessary to brew a medicine or poison, you require half the usual amount of ingredients to brew each dose. <div class="footnote">MATERIA MEDICA </div> \pagebreakNum <div class='spellList'> ##### Summer <br> <a href="#summer_coast"> - Coast </a> <a href="#summer_desert"> - Desert </a> <a href="#summer_forest"> - Forest </a> <a href="#summer_grassland"> - Grassland </a> <a href="#summer_jungle"> - Jungle </a> <a href="#summer_mountain"> - Mountain </a> <a href="#summer_swamp"> - Swamp </a> <a href="#summer_tundra"> - Tundra </a> <a href="#summer_underdark"> - Underdark </a> <a href="#summer_urban"> - Urban </a> \columnbreak ##### Autumn <br> <a href="#autumn_coast"> - Coast </a> <a href="#autumn_desert"> - Desert </a> <a href="#autumn_forest"> - Forest </a> <a href="#autumn_grassland"> - Grassland </a> <a href="autumn_jungle"> - Jungle </a> <a href="#autumn_mountain"> - Mountain </a> <a href="#autumn_swamp"> - Swamp </a> <a href="#autumn_tundra"> - Tundra </a> <a href="#autumn_underdark"> - Underdark </a> <a href="#autumn_urban"> - Urban </a> \columnbreak ##### Winter <br> <a href="#winter_coast"> - Coast </a> <a href="#winter_desert"> - Desert </a> <a href="#winter_forest"> - Forest </a> <a href="#winter_grassland"> - Grassland </a> <a href="#winter_jungle"> - Jungle </a> <a href="#winter_mountain"> - Mountain </a> <a href="#winter_swamp"> - Swamp </a> <a href="#winter_tundra"> - Tundra </a> <a href="#winter_underdark"> - Underdark </a> <a href="#winter_urban"> - Urban </a> \columnbreak ##### Spring <br> <a href="#spring_coast"> - Coast </a> <a href="#spring_desert"> - Desert </a> <a href="#spring_forest"> - Forest </a> <a href="#spring_grassland"> - Grassland </a> <a href="#spring_jungle"> - Jungle </a> <a href="#spring_mountain"> - Mountain </a> <a href="#spring_swamp"> - Swamp </a> <a href="#spring_tundra"> - Tundra </a> <a href="#spring_underdark"> - Underdark </a> <a href="#spring_urban"> - Urban </a> </div> <br> # Summer <div class='Table wide'> <a name="summer_coast"> ### Coast </a> <br> | Names | Appearance | Forms | Effect | DC | |:---|:---|:---|:---|:---:| | Bluebottle, Man-O-War | Floating on the water like a blue bubble with a sail,<br>its translucent body and long stinging tail are easily stranded | Tail (Contact) | Poison (2d6/round) | <div style="color:limegreen">**14** | | Coastal Jack-Bean, Seaside Jack | Fleshy vines trail along sand dunes, thick leaves matting the area and pink flowers popping up sporadically | Leaves (Salve) | Healing (4d4 + 4) | <div style="color:crimson">**14** | | Yarrow, Milfoil, Littlefeather, Nosebleed, Soldier's Safety, Bloodwort, Woundwort | Sprawling fernlike shrub explodes into bunches of tiny flowers in dozens of colours to form a floral canopy | Oil (Tonic);
