Because this PC got fried by lightning, I decided it was more of a neurological injury. I took the confusion-inducing long term madness effect and made it permanent (instead of having it only last a few hours). "Indefinite madness" can only be removed with greater restoration or similar magic.EDIT: So the player had his PC bring up the injury while hanging out with Ontharr. The paladin offered to get someone to have a look, but when he said the healing process would involve prayer, the PC declined. The player was really getting into the roleplay and decided that his Evermeet-born elf would not like to be beholden to human gods. He's going to seek out an elven healer who can restore his mind instead. Fair enough!He might have to wait until the caravan reaches Daggerford, though. He can go on a little trek into the nearby Misty Forest to find some elves who might be able to help him out. He might need to undertake some sort of mini "elf quest" (ha ha) to prove his worthiness in the eyes of Corellon or something. Any ideas?</blockquote>
