[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9125641, member: 6802378"] [I]The lizarfolk stares at harengon and this starts to feel very nervious. [/I] For game effects the living plants are objects. "Purify food and drink" couldn't work so good in living beings. It would be like swallowing a bar of soap to cleanse your stomach, or taking an overdose of antibiotics Let's imagine a cow is bitten by a ghoul and it is infected. The spell is used and the cow is healed, but the side effects would be too serious, and the cow may not survive for a long time. You shouldn't worry about this if you wanted to sacrifice and eat it soon. Maybe somebody with enough knownledge about medicine could create a variant. Some spellcaster could create a variant of "create food and drink" to produce medicines, but the composition of the medicine should be known. What if "purify food" was used against an undead like ghouls? It should be work totally in the complete body, because if only a part is healed then it would be reinfected again. Or maybe "purify food" could work to stop a poisoning but only in a portion of the body, maybe in the zone of the stomach, the heart or the injury. This means the patient could survive, but suffering remains of the poison from other parts of the body. "Purify food" to heal an infection would be useful to earn time, but only a zone would be healed, and other zones still remain infected. [/QUOTE]
