Herbalism - (Intelligence) Those with herbalist knowledge can identify plants and fungus and prepare nonmagical potions, poultices, powders, balms, salves, ointments, infusions, and plasters for medical and other purposes. They can also prepare natural plant poisons and purgatives. To be able to cure poison and diseases, the PC must collect various herbs ahead of time and make them into small salves (this is due to the fact that most poisons are fast acting, and the PC wouldn’t be able to make up a salve and find the components in say 1 to 4 rounds). To cure the poison or disease, the PC must make two rolls. These are; 1 -a player must roll to see if he possesses the knowledge to deal with that particular toxin or disease. 2 - a player must roll against the level of the poison to determine if he neutralizes that particular agent.
Note: If the poison or disease is magical in nature, then no mundane cure will work.
Untreated herbs can only be used within 7 days of them being found to be of any use unless the PC preserves these herbs with a normal check for a maximum of 3 month.
The chance to find herbs is equal to ¼ their normal percent chance if the character is looking out for them while traveling at normal speed, and a normal percent chance if actively searching (quarter normal movement rate while searching).
Note: Herbs from outside your region are different than the ones that you are used to and therefore are much more difficult for you to identify. You will encounter minuses with these types of herbs.

Create Herbal Potion – Herbal potions have a shelf life of 100 years and will cause the maximum duration of the herb every time they are consumed. Note: As always a 1 is an auto failure.
Note: Takes 1 hour per batch (up to 100 herbs of the same type) to brew. If left exposed to the air potions will eventually evaporate so potions need to be kept in airtight containers such as small metal flasks or etc.
