Therapeutic Settlement

Settlements, Therapeutic

At a Glance

A Therapeutic Settlement is renowned for conditions that aid recovery: medicinal hot springs, clean mountain air, healing herbs, mineral waters or a local divine blessing. Healers, retreats, nurseries and places of convalescence are common.

Legacy Settlement Rules

Increase Economy by 1 and Lore by 1. Heal checks made within the settlement also receive the settlement’s positive Lore modifier.

Using It in Play

People travel here because recovery is easier, not because injury and disease cease to matter. Skilled healers, rare herbs and long-term patients can make the settlement unusually knowledgeable about medicine.

Adventure Use

A threatened spring, poisoned herb field, missing healer or disputed sacred grove can endanger both the local economy and the people who depend on the settlement for treatment.
