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.

Charlie had made it clear on more than one occasion that he'd like them all to have a basic understanding of first aid. After all, there was only one of him and its not like he could be everywhere at once. Should they get injured and stranded, it would be up to them to see to their own injuries and that of any others who were currently with them. Not a pleasant thought. Hitting and destroying things, or collecting stuff, fine. He could do that, but patching up others and potentially doing a poor job that could lead to more problems didn't make him all that comfortable. Hopefully it wouldn't come to that.

He approached the table and immediately frowned. They looked like... Nahh...

Now. Perhaps allowing Rook around the medical equipment was a bad idea. It was like setting a monkey loose in a room full of breakables, to put it bluntly. He wanted to try out everything. So when he spotted height and weight scale, it was no question that he had to test it. How long had it been since he measured and weighed himself anyways? Probably hadn't been since his last track meet.

Stepping onto the scale, he stared down and watched the numbers spin. "123 pounds." He mumbled under his breathe and shrugged. He had lost a little weight, but so had everyone and he wasn't all that concerned. As for his height... yeah he wasn't even going to bother.

The scale forgotten, Rook moved on, pausing briefly at the tables littered with white linins. But that wasn't what had made the red head pause. His eyes were fixed on the reddish-sort of browning coloured stains. Blood perhaps? It wouldn't be all that surprising. It was medical supplies after all and they have been in this predicament for a month now.

Rook continued along until he came across the next station. But when he saw the note with the words 'DO NOT TOUCH' written boldly on it, he obliged and moved on. He could follow that rule.

Finally, having had enough of a look around the place, Rook plopped down onto the nearest stool and set to work. There was another 'student' present that he was supposed to practice on and vice versa, one who didn't seemed to be overly pleased that Rook was their partner, and who could blame them?

Half an hour later and Rook had them covered in socks. Some of which, smelled as though they had been recently used. To be fair, he had practiced seriously, at first. But then it just sort of devolved into a game of how many socks could he attach to the poor sap.
