The Wise Woman & Herbs

[Tim]

Who better than to deal with herbs than your local Wise Woman? They go by multiple titles in the books (Wisdom, Mother, etc), but they all know the art of using herbs to heal and now their coming to GoS.

You will be able to purchace some local herbs from the Town's Wise Woman. 3 per town, just like food and drink. Below is a list of the herbs. You'll notice that they give smaller bonuses than drinks do, but they also don't have those nasty side effects.

Herbs:

• worrynot root: +4 dmg %
  
• boneknit: +4 def%
  
• crimsonthorn root: +2 taint
  
• silver leaf: +2 accuracy
  
• goosemint: +2 dodge
  
• grey fennel: +2 poison
  
• dogwort: +4 health gain %
  
• greenwort: +1 stun
  
• andilay root: +1 speed
  

Wise Women are also where you will be able to purchase upgrades for you consumable inventory. Got to be able to carry things around after all. Below is the progression of 'pouches' you will be able to purchase. Progession will be similar to how your current inventory is upgraded, so you can't skip too far ahead without doing other upgrades first. Price of the upgrades will be slightly cheaper than for your equipment inventory, but not proportionally cheap (ie. it won't be more than half as cheap).

Pouches:

• Pockets: 4 (default)
  
• Purse: 6
  
• Belt Pouch: 8
  
• Bag: 10
  
• Scrip: 12
  
• Saddle Bag: 14
  
• Chest: 16

What other upgrades?

[Tim]

I meant like in when you're buying new horses, you only have the next two upgrades available to buy, so you can't skip straight from walking to a war horse without purchasing some of the horses in between. Sorry. Guess I wasn't very clear on that.
