Health in eraNAS uses a Hediff system much like Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld. Each wound is unique as it's given a damage type, severity, and tags that show where it came from. Each injury affects a different part of the characters' well being, and can be found under a character's Health tab.

Injury

Different weapons cause different types of injuries. For example, a mace will crush, a longsword will cut, and fire will burn. The type of injury impacts the amount of pain it causes, the rate of bleeding, and the chance of infection

Bleeding

Bleeding is a common occurance from certain damage types. While an injury is bleeding, pawns will gain blood loss, scaling with the wound and amount of wounds.

A character has it's blood capacity equal to it's max stamina

Characters can recover 2880ml of blood per day (120ml/hour). A bleed is equal to 60 ml/hour. This means a character can have 2 stacks of bleed without having a risk of dying of blood loss. 1 bleed expire every 60 minutes on all hediffs which are bleeding. Bandaged wounds will never leak blood

If a character has no more blood, she will instantly die. Kills are credited to those who fought the 2hu last

Gunshots, tearing, and cuts do bleeds every 400 points of damage

Burns and acid bleed every 300 points

Since gunshots target multiple body parts, you can have 12 stacks of bleeding on all 3 parts of a leg

Doctoring

Healing

You can tend wounds from a character or yourself by using the "Doctor" command.

Using it will open a menu where you will be able to choose what kind of medicine you want to use and which wound you want you want to treat.

There are 5 types of medicine, ranked from worst to the best:

- No Medicine: Sometimes when supplies are short, or you need to save your stocks of medicine for better purposes, you can attempt to improvise a treatment. The result will be mediocre at best, even for good doctors, but it's better than nothing.

- Medicinal Herb: Not much to say, it's much better than using air and imagination, and you can find them while foraging. It is not very powerful, and its best application is in treating injuries, the flu, and chronic diseases - but it can be good at treating more severe diseases when used by a skilled and/or enhanced doctor.

- High Quality Medicinal Herb: Same as medicinal herb, but it's better. It's the same rarity level as the normal ones, so it shouldn't be a problem to find them while foraging too.

- Special Medicinal Herb: Better than high quality ones, harder to find too. As intermediate level foraging item, you will need some skill at foraging to find some.

- Modern Medkit: Standard medicine is the benchmark of medical treatment solutions and is mixable with if you're at least B at Drug Synthesis. It's better than any herb you can find. You can't find it while foraging in most areas, although it can be found somewhere in Makai.

- Gensou-chan Medicine: The most advanced medicine you can get. Tending qualities can get over 100% with very little medical skill. This medicine is also the only one with a technical knowledge requirement, requiring Ultratech tech knowledge to be used. It's also extremely hard to get. It's recommended to only use Gensou-chan Medicines for serious injuries or to exorcise cancers.

Aside from what you use, effect of the tending will be also depending on your medical skill. Tended wounds will start to heal with time and will immediately stop bleeding.

There's two other commands you can use: Bandage and Surgery:

- Bandaging can hide a wound and stop the bleeding of it. It will not help heal it.

- Surgery, as its name indicates, will permit you to harvest and replace organs, either yours or those of the character you're targeting.

To heal yourself (only), you can also go see Eirin (or go an Infirmary if the home upgrade is installed), ask her a medical examination and tell her you need medical help. Be aware that she will keep you in for 3 days. She will replace any of your completely destroyed organs and limbs by with natural, Yagokoro Enhanced ones, actually upgrading you as well. However, this service is not free, you will have to pay \50000 per visit.

Surgery

To get access to surgery, you will need to buy the Field Surgery Kit on "genbu.co.jp". You will obviously need the computer or the Communication Hub to do so.

Surgery will let you harvest most organs that are actually harvestable, like limbs, vital organs, and bionic enhancements. Be aware that harvesting the liver or the heart of a living character will instantly kill them, no matter their species. Same thing happens if you harvest both of their lungs or kidneys. Success in harvesting depends on your medical skill, manipulation and sight. If it fails, the organ will be damaged, and you'll be unable to harvest it again until it heals.

Part Installation

Surgery will allow you to replace organs, by either natural or bionic counterparts. You will also be able to add some bionic or/and magic improvements.

Weirdly enough, you can change your own heart and your own liver without any risks or negative effects on your health.

To replace an organ, directly click on "Install bionic" or "Install natural replacement".

Bionic organs will either help an amputee to recover some of the organ function (peg and prosthetic limbs) or replace a healthy organ to improve its functions.

E.g. : replacing a natural leg by a bionic or Gensou-chan leg and/or applying a Yagokoro enancement on the leg will improve character's moving rate.

Some magical enhancements allow to improve even more your organs' (natural or not) functions. (like Yagokoro enhancements)

There are also multiple bionics enhancements that will help you learn faster, reduce or nullify pain, improve fertility, etc...

You can create multiple types of artificial organs and limbs with the mixing table. In order of efficiency: peg < prosthetic< (natural)< bionic< Gensou-chan. As mentioned earlier, you can get Yagokoro Enhancements by being treated by Eirin while missing some organs. Put on natural organs, you gain as much as you would from installing bionic parts.

Keep in mind that natural organs and their counterparts are worth a lot, even in Gensokyo.

Resurrection

In the case your waifu dies, there are multiple ways to resurrect them (as long as you didn't turn on "Permanent death"):

- Bringing them to Eirin: If you bring the corpse to an Eintei member (don't forget to be discreet, or you're gonna be seen as a murderer), they will bring the dead character to Eirin, who will resurrect them. If the character is not liked by them (e.g. Satori, Seija) they will not bring them to Eirin, and will instead spit on them.

- Asking Seiga with a financial "donation": If the corpse hasn't been disposed of by Aya (by finding it and ending the day), Rin or Komachi, you can ask Seiga to resurrect a dead character. It will not be free however, and if you're not ready to put the fair price, the reanimated character can be a bit... deteriorated.

- Using an Elixir: Once you hit A at Drug Synthesis, you will be able to craft an Elixir. Using it will have a lot of wonderful effects on the char targeted, but if used on a lifeless body, it will bring the char back to life.

- Auto-Resurrections: For characters that aren't supposed to be able to die, like gods, fairies, Hourais, and essential characters such as Nitori, if they end up dying, they will come back the day after their death on the default settings. If you allow everyone to respawn, you will only have to wait a day for everyone to resurrect. On "no respawns" mode, the Elixir, Eirin or Seiga are required to resurrect.

Resurrected characters will have all of their destroyed limbs and organs regrown. If the Elixir is used, their shiny new organs will also get Yagokoro enhancement.
