Poultices

The Druid may use Foraging and Faith to create a poultice. First they pick if they want to Boon, Bless, Curse, or Aid (as per Faith), and either an Intent or a Skill, Attribute, or Stat (so you can make a Poultice to help someone Find Love, Overthrow a Tyrant, or so on, or you may make one for Power or Firebuilding). When picking the type of bonus and how it is applicable, the Druid can also pick the form it takes (a cake of herb, a tea, a bottle of potion, a slime applied to a blade).

They then roll Foraging at an Ob equal to one of:

  • Boon: Ob2
  • Blessing: Ob3
  • Curse: Ob3
  • Aid: Ob4

Terrain is a common source of advantage and disadvantage.

This tests acts as a Linked Test with the much later Faith roll. The Druid must spend all Day's Light (or One Hex Crawling action) Foraging to roll the Foraging test. Once that is completed they may use a Herbalism or Apothecary kit to create a poultice, roll the Die of Fate to see if the kit is exhausted.

The Druid must pick one of: - The refuse to show anyone their workings and hide - The demand aid from their fellows, forcing them to find certain plants and detritus (see heading Bullshit to Find) and allowing them to help

Once the poultice is created, it can be used quickly (one fight action), and the Druid rolls their Faith to see if it worked when it is used.

Blossoms, Lembas, and Oatcakes

The Druid may use these to create Elven Bread, Blood Blossoms, Honeyed Oat Cake, or similar, rolling their Baking or Farming as necessary instead of Foraging, and skipping the Faith roll.

Plants

The Druid can use certain rituals with Plants. These most commonly cause the plants to change or obey the Druid.
