MUNDANE MEDICINE (Remastered!) - Bandages to Potions: Healing Beyond the Spellbook

Medicine is often seen as a background feature in the world of fantasy games, overshadowed by the glitz and glamour of magical healing. But in reality, mundane medicine plays a crucial role in the survival and success of adventurers in these fantastical worlds. In this remastered episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we dig into the often overlooked world of mundane medicine in RPGs and how it can add depth and complexity to your gaming experience. Join us as we explore the mechanics, skills, and strategies of mundane medicine in popular RPGs like DnD 5e and discover how you can make it a meaningful and impactful aspect of your game.
