Herbs, Drugs and Poisons
Herbs are gathered by characters with the Woodsman ability from the Survival Skill and used by Apothecaries to produce effects, both helpful and harmful to the human body, from the saps, unguents, seeds, juice, and other pulps and parts of various herbs.  The skills of woodsmen and apothecaries are looked upon with some level of suspicion by common people because woods witches and druids are known to use these techniques as well, though they are able to produce effects that common apothecaries cannot begin to reproduce. Most woodsmen and apothecaries are benign people simply seeking to benefit from nature, but their association with heresy, witchcraft, poison, and their refusal to rely only on the sacred medicine of the Hospitalier Order are all grounds to keep them at arm’s length.
When a character with the Woodsman (Survival 3) ability locates an herb in game, they may pick up the herb and turn it in as a Task in order to receive the appropriate tag. A character may only naturally carry one herb at a time, but means such as Gathering Pouches exist to increase that limit.

Herb Traits
All herbs have three traits naturally from the below list. Early on, practitioners attempted to name the traits of herbs by the effects they could draw from them in their mixtures. However, as the apothecary arts became more sophisticated, these names became less purely indicative of a given herbs effects when properly brewed. Still, these traits have become the common parlance of the craft, even if they aren’t always accurate.
