[Open Class] How to First Aid 101 (Mahlan Ulmace)

[Rathurue]

CLASS

NAME OF CLASS: First Aid 101
PROFESSOR NAME: Professor Cricket

General information: A general overview on basic illnesses a student might run into, as well as symptoms and quick fixes to things like breaks and deep cuts while on the go!

Each student is given a dummy to work on, though they may choose to partner up in fixing it.

Mechanics:
Roll 1 20-sided dice, what you roll is what your student gets to work with...

Dice Rolls and What they Mean!

1-4 - Broken Bone
4-8 - Fever
9-12 - Heat Stroke
13-16 - Hypothermia
17-20 - Lack of Bodily Function (such as breathing, pulse, etc) - this is unnaturally so.

After this, please roll 4, 4-sided Dice. Take into account their total and any repeating numbers

Total Results and their Meaning

1-6 - You do a rather poor job patching up your dummy, you might not want to try and heal anybody anytime soon!
7-12 - You do an average job, nothing extraordinary, but passable!
12-16 - Extra good work! Your student can now heal surface wounds!, but not repair HP! This means things like cuts and bleeding that might hinder another character can be patched up!

What Repeating Numbers Mean

No Repeating Numbers - You used just the right amount of supplies, good for you! Not wasteful at all.
Repeating 1s or 2s - You didn't use enough supplies, that's rather lazy and Cricket obviously disapproves of it.
Repeating 3s or 4s - You used too many supplies and that's wasteful! Naughty! Cricket might make you earn your supply rights back in a future class!

If you work as a group, split up the dice between yourselves as evenly as possible. So if you're paired up, each person rolls a 10 sided dice and you add up the results to get your dummy!

Then you split up your 4 sided dice to work on fixing it up!


Bonus Mechanics:
For every 3 times you attempt this course, your student may add +1 to their 4d4 dice roll's total to improve how well they patched up the dummy.

YOU LOSE/FINISH THIS CLASS WHEN...

- You are finished rolling both sets of dice and rping out the results. That means you have to START OVER to try again! You may do so in the same thread or a new one if you decide to attempt again at a later date.

"Hrmmmm..."
As usual, Mahlan was strolling on the Academy's hallways, seeking for open class; even if the Academy itself adopts the escalator system, the Students still needs to attend an allotted number of class to be qualified for passing.

And since it's near the Halloween day, most of the Academy's teachers, professors and lecturers are out for preparation for the festival. As for the classes...
In front of her was a huge board filled with a list of open classes; even if it was named 'open' there's still a need of a watcher to ensure the students doesn't just laze about and uses precious equipment for playing around.

"Ahwell, 'tis one'll do." She pointed to one of the listed classes-the easiest one. After all, plant spirits are proficient in healing...

-but that's speaking in times when you can use FEAR. There'll be times when they are hard-pressed (usually by works of some Artifacts) and can only rely on things nearby. Why don't she learn some of those primitive way of healing then?

Whistling loudly, Mahlan cheerfully skipped to the classroom.

[Step 1: The Patient]

"EXCUZ MEH!" Yelled Mah, opening the classroom door with vigor-well, excess vigor. The students and the professor jumped a bit when greeted with such...excessive energy. "Oh? Waz I'm too late?" She asked again, only to be welcomed with annoyed glare. Professor Cricket...or whatever he was named signaled her to take a seat before the class started...again.

After a brief explanation of how FEAR bodies work, and why everyday item like bandages, sutures and ointment will work on them, the professor started giving lectures on what are wounds in terms of physical body and how to treat them. After a boring hour or so of many, many, MANY kinds of wound from slight scratch, bruises until all-limb traumatic amputation and how to care for them, the class has ended, and the wrap-up test are conducted.

Each student is given a lot number and proceeds to take their own mannequin to treat. "Uh. Tis' no mannequin..." Grimmaced Mahlan when she saw the lump of meat with some defects on her table-it's closer to an incomplete homunculus, given the fleshy feel of the body. The assessment gives her a broken bone case. Hrmm. As she played with the mannequin, twisting the broken limb like a fan, the professor again sighed at her. Huh? What was her fault?

As a plant spirit that just learned the concept of limbs other than branch, and from the mental blockade caused by her boredom, Mahlan didn't really know how to treat this 'patient'.

HRMMMMM.

If she can just ask Rei for his questionable 'human basic knowledge', maybe she can finish this class easily. Too bad that boil doesn't have his student pin yet-maybe she should push him to enroll for good already. Can she just copy what others do to their mannequin?

Looking around, the other students proceeded to disinfect, sew, wrap, tie the 'wound' rather easily and quickly, without missing a beat. Was it her fault not to pay attention to the lecturer? Err, speaking truthfully, it MIGHT be, or no, it's EXACTLY what happened.

[Step 2: The Treatment]

Let's rack her nonexistent brain for a bit. Hmm, what did the professor talked about broken bone treatment? Was it something like...immobilization? If the bone's already broken, she can't threaten the victim with breaking bones so---maybe it's not the same 'immobilization'.

Think, think, think, what immobilization the prof meant? If the bones are what supports fleshy beings, then it must be the same like a tree's trunk in structure. And there's cases where when the branches of a tree was broken and re-set---

"Oh, that's it!" She exclaimed, roughly grasping the idea. Pulling the broken part and slamming the ends of the broken bones together until it was fit and unmovable even if she twisted them around. Now the bones are set...okay, what should she do next?

She need to...make support for the bones. Looking at the table, she was provided some wood planks and a length of stiff cloth. Now how can she immobilize the bones while exerting enough force to prevent the joined bone separated again.

"How about this~" Mahlan tightly bind the stiff cloth one joint below the broken bone, and slipped some wooden planks while binding the area. Moving on, binding the whole length of the bone and the plank together tightly until the next joint, she completed the treatment...not.
Finding that binding the 'victim' quite fun like entwining vines, she continued to bind and bind and bind---

"Howwzat!" with pride, she presented the mummy-like mannequin to the professor.

The lecturer again frowned. If she just stopped after binding the affected area it's already a good treatment, but she overdid it.

She was given passing grade, but the wasteful use of bandage gets her some demerit.
