All Information Below On This Page Is Medical Skill Levels, And Their Injury Capability

SKILL LEVELS
This is hindered by your characters background and profession. They can also get knowledge by experience as well and learning the craft.

Good Way To Get Better Is Treating An Injury 1 Skill Level Above Yours. You Can Technically Treat Someone As Long As You Win A Dice Roll. But That Doesnt Mean 1 Knowledge Cant Do 6 Knowledge, But 1 Knowledge Can Attempt 2 Knowledge. For 0 Knowledge To Get Better, They Must Be Taught By Someone Or Teach Themselves By Studying.
