A field medic during our various wars was also a soldier. He also had rudimentary (at least) knowledge of medicine.So you could develop a "Field Medic" feat chain ... some ides:Field MedicRequirements: 4 Ranks in Heal.The character is trained the arts of battle field wound dressing. As such he or she can get a soldier operational when normally they could not.Benefit: On a successful DC15 heal check, the Field Medic heals 1d3 hit points of damage to a single person. For every 5 points about the initial DC, the healing is increased <- thinking either increase the die used to heal or +1 per 5 points.Note: This is natural healing, sewing of wounds, etc. It will leave scars, unlike magical healing.Field Medic, Natural ToxicologyRequirements: 4 Ranks in Heal, Field Medic, 4 Ranks Knowledge (nature)The character has studied the toxicology of plants and normal animals. As such he or she can counter the effects of naturally ocurring poisons.Benefit: The character is able to cure ability point damage caused by natural poisons. On a DC20 heal check, the character cures 1d2 ability points, increasing by +1 for every 5 points above 20.And so forth.Remember that a straight Heal Check can stablise characters, repalce a secondary saving throw versus poisons, and some other nifty things.This would1. make it a specific profession if you will for a character2. give the character something else to do instead of just "hang around" and wait for healing opportunities.Just Some IdeasD</blockquote>
