But available.Things like Sarga Petals that can be made into a poultice and applied to a wound. During a short rest whoever applied the poultice rolls a Medicine Check. On a success, the poultice grants the injured character the healer's Wisdom Modifier as a bonus to any Hit Dice they spend to recover health during that short rest.Meanwhile the rarer herb Dasil-Pually when consumed allows the injured party to expend one "Free" hit die, even if they have no hit dice remaining. (Essentially a potion of healing). Tack on a limit of uses per day, or side-effects like a penalty to Wisdom saves... And now we have an Opiate!Similarly, someone could drink tea brewed from the bitter bark of the alhai tree before taking a long rest and recover all of their Hit Dice instead of 1/2 of their hit dice.And then make those things grant bonuses to specific spells.Someone who uses Sarga Petals in the Healing Word spell grants an extra 2 points of healing to the target. Or Dasil-Pually when used with Cure Wounds or Restoration allows the target to immediately expend a Hit Die, if they have one available, to gain additional healing. And the bark of the Alhai tree can be burned during the Prayer of Healing spell to allow up to 6 targets recover one expended hit die.</blockquote>
