Why Walton, did you know that Goldy has a fishey in his ear? Why don't you go in there and get it for him? It's grey and very far in, so make sure to get all of it.

Spoiler: Corbin Alhazred (click to show/hide)

Name: Corbin Alhazred
Gender: Male
Description: He only recently awoke from a fugue state, during which he seemed to have studied a whole heck of a lot about the occult, at some point incurring serious burns, covering about 3/4 of his body, one eye is green while the other is yellow, and, likely due to an accident while performing some necromancy, he is much taller than normal, at 7ft 5in.  He doesn't really remember what all he did or learned while in his fugue, but he does get snatches of it every now and again.  He cannot stand to be without the heavily bound leather tome marked 'Necronomicon', although it appears  to be a hand written copy of the book, and most of it isn't in a familiar alphabet, and the parts that are seem to be gibberish.

  -Long greatcoat, covered in occult symbols and incantations, any effect they may have is unknown, tan
  -Heavy duty slacks, four pockets + watch pocket
  -Heavy long sleeve shirt
  -Black leather gloves, covered in occult symbols
  -Black fedora, covered in occult symbols

Major item: Hand written copy of Necronomicon (mostly illegible, can get snatches of it every now an again)
Minor items: - brass pocket watch, engraved with occult symbols, mechanical, cannot be wound, does not need to be wound
  -sacrificial dagger (see, bowie knife)
  -lot's of white chalk
  -vial of human blood

Anyways, the biggest issue I have with my system at this point is that there's no way to heal HP or other damage without magic. Since (AFAIK) you don't have enough of an idea of how magic works to benefit much from my hints in that direction, we need mundane healing. Obviously, bleeding out should be stoppable, but what Attributes would help? What would be a reasonable requirement to actually heal HP damage?

id say it should need materials or tools relevant to the injury type and should probably use cleverness.
as for healing hp... you could always take a turn off to regenerate a small amount or try your hand at making healing potions through alchemy with cleverness?

Hmm...
Dig up hoe from my farm and make it into a pick.

Get mining pick. Mine steel, plutonium, and uranium.

Hunt animals for food!

Open door.

Um... I can still move even as a plushie... right? Or do i need to respawn again?

use shadow dragon to make the door open. By that I mean bash him against the door until it opens.

Steal wolverine plushie and sell him to some random guy I find.

Get to settlement then explore it.

Sink into the earth, grow into an almond tree. Or whatever the hell almonds grow on.
