So that Poets Priests and Politicians all do their thing (Bards, Clerics and Warlords) Wound removal is (in 4e) in a remove affliction ritual (and the surgery practice can do it to) But its usually only valuable for NPCs. Actually I think afflictions would be one of those areas I would have like to seen better developed for 4e. For instance perhaps if death saves are failed a wound/affliction is incurred.</blockquote>
