Accelerated Growth “I’ll help if I must.”

1
The power to heal wounds.
Used by Morgan Wells, Created by Ozz.
(You are obviously treating your target for the entire cast time. )

Inspired by the regeneration of the Hydra, starting this procedure begins with a variety of small inch long tendrils sprouting along one of Morgan’s hands. A successful Int-Animals check is enough to reveal that these typically belong to Hydra Oligactis, a Cnidarian known for its regenerative abilities.

Each sting of from it’s cnidocyte results in rapid tissue growth, speeding up the body’s regenerative abilities to extreme lengths. In the event of treating severed limbs, regrowth starts with the bone, moving onto muscle mass and tissue later. The process is relatively painless for the patient, those with sensory issues may find it slightly troubling though.


Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Science at Difficulty 8.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.

This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.

  • Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
