Freshman Quest: Healing 101
Charlie felt it would be beneficial to show the newbies some basic medical techniques, hopefully to keep you alive a little longer! Deciding it would be better to actually show them in a (somewhat) more sanitary environment than the Dorms, so this quest takes place in the Health Department (their make-shift Infirmary). There are a few lingering staff and helpers around who show you the ropes.

Quest Notes:
- You can do this quest as a group if you'd like! Just roll the steps as usual.
- There is a 300 word minimum word count for each person in this quest.

Step One: Learning the Layout
- Roll 3d6 in one post OR 1d6 in three separate posts. RP your character inspecting these areas. (if you roll multiples you can either Re-roll or say they inspect that area super closely)
  • 1: Pull out a drawer and inside you find their supply of band-aids and bandages. It seems like a lot but in reality it would not last long if things really went down.
  • 2: A locked Cabinet filled with medicines. The staff tell you that only one person in their group holds the key to it, and he is quite the cranky customer. They say just in case something happens to the holder there is a hidden spare key somewhere.
  • 3: You look down at a metal table with shiny instruments piled on top. Really to you they look like mini torture devices, best not hang around for long. In reality they are emergency items for surgical needs.
  • 4: You instead the tables that the staff have covered in white linens. There are some mysterious stains on them, red tinted.
  • 5: Neat! There is a working height and weight scale the team had moved into the department. Good to know!
  • 6: A small room with a door off to one side. Inside is a simple desk and a few chairs, clearly a private area for meetings if you'd rather keep things hush hush. There is also paperwork on top of the desk. One of them is a log explaining what had been used and who had been there and when.

Step two: Using Supplies
- Not wanting to waste their limited medical supply on trainees, instead they improvise using similar objects to practice with.
- If doing this as a group feel free to 'practice' on each other, if doing this solo you may say you are using a random NPC to test things on!
- Roll 1d6 and match your responses below.
- Please roll twice! So do two of them below. (If you roll the same number feel free to re-roll)

  • 1: Fake Bandages! Using some clean socks, pretend to be bandaging up a part of your 'patients' body that might have been wounded. Use clips to clip the socks in place.
  • 2: Using a bottle filled with water from the tap, pretend you are cleaning a wound! Remember you would never actually use the trainted water on a real wound, but this is pretend. In a real situation you would use isopropyl alcohol or something like it.
  • 3: Taking a needle and thread, sew up a hole in the provided tattered clothing. Not only does this show how to make-shift sew a wound, it also patches some clothing holes! Yay for being useful!!
  • 4: On a table is an actual knife. They ask you to take the knife and cut up some of the canned peaches nearby. Why? They state it's another practice but i think they actually just need help with food prep.... Handling the knife comes with a warning of 'If you cut yourself you sew yourself up.'
  • 5: Another station leads towards the earlier metal table with the surgical equipment, there is a note on top that says 'DO NOT TOUCH.' Oh, Ok. Easiest example ever!
  • 6: As a lesson in maintaining a healthy environment, they make you clean down the entire room.


Rewards:
- This quest is considered complete once every player inside has rolled all the times and made the minimal 300 word count each!
- For Course Credits: Take the very first number and the very last number you rolled in this thread and add them together. If its an even number, divide it by two and thats how many points you get. If its an odd number, add +1 and then divide by two.
- Example: I rolled a 2 and a 4. 2+4 = 6. 6 / 2 = i earned 3 credits for this quest.
- Example 2: 1 rolled a 1 and a 2. 1+2=3. Oops! Odd number! So add a 1 to make it an even number. 3+1=4. 4 / 2 = I earned 2 credits for this quest.
- Max credits possible to earn in this quest is 6.
- The numbers you add are your personal numbers, meaning YOU rolled them. If you have multiple people in a thread, they use their own first and last numbers they personally rolled.

The guy who had handed Harper her jersey had started up a few training like classes to help improve their medical skills for their other companions. She immediately made a beeline for to volunteer to learn anything she could about it. Beyond the realm of wrapping a band-aid around her finger when she accidentally didn’t watch her x-acto knife and cut her finger a few too many times Harper knew nothing about actual first aid. There was some regret she had in never learning something as easy as CPR but there wasn’t a lot she could do now other than learn what she could.

Making her way to the make-shift Infirmary Harper was pointed to take a look around and to familiarize where everything was. There was a scale in the corner, one of the ones you normally saw in the doctor’s office that would tell you your height and weight. For a moment she wanted to go over and weigh herself but she didn’t really want to know, she didn’t want to know how much weight she had lost since what she considered normal days. Instead Harper headed over to a draw and pulled it open, inside there was a supply of band-aids and wrap bandages, it was a lot as if they were fully stock like a store however that was it. If they ran out they couldn’t just go to the store and buy more, they were going to be lucky if they even found more out on the campus. Turning around Harper looked at the table with a series of small tools lying on a tray next to it. Most of them looked like long poking needle things while others took on the look of scissors or pliers. She knew they were meant for more surgical uses but still they gave the impression of torture.

Someone herded up the freshman and paired them with one another, leaving Harper with another girl with ginger hair. Next they laid out a knife and a tray filled with some canned peaches. They were to take turns cutting the peaches up leaving Harper wondering if maybe this was nothing more than killing two birds with one stone in the terms of having them cut food as food prep and learn some skills with the knife. Luckily the knife was very similar to an x-acto knife making it rather easy to handle.

Next they gave each of them a pair of fresh socks and showed how to wrap them around each other arms or legs and how to clip them properly. It took Harper more than a minute to wrap it around her partner wrist, making sure it was tight but not too tight to cut off circulation. The clip was even harder to snag on the fabric but it held in place and the instructor approved it and let them go.
