Editing System:Doctor

A detailed knowledge of medicines, minor surgery, etc., and a licence to practice. If more than one point is spent, the character has knowledge of a specialty (such as surgery) and the appropriate qualifications. This Skill may not be acquired in the course of play, unless several years pass between adventures. E.g. Doctor (dentist).

A Doctor can perform First Aid on [[System:Wounds|Wounds]] as the first step in Healing, as can someone with the [[System:First Aid|First Aid]] Skill, but only a Doctor can also improve recovery times.

Since Doctor is a [[:Category:Difficult/Unusual Skills|Difficult Skill]], and therefore begins at a lower level than [[System:First Aid|First Aid]], it may be worth considering taking both skills for maximum effect.
