====== Herbs, Herbal Remedies and Herbal Concoctions ======

This section lists all the creations that may be purchased from an herbalist or attempted using the Herbalism skill. Herbal creations are broken into two groups. Common herbals are those that are made from ingredients local to the Jorvikburg area, although they may still be rare. Exotic herbal concoctions are made from ingredients that are found elsewhere on earth and brought to the new world. Each of these herbal creations are priced and purchased in doses. One dose will be enough to deliver the effect to one individual PC one time.
