Hello,

I know we have different color bandages for different identifying different poultices, however there is no way to differentiate between poultices before we apply them to bandages. If anyone had the inclination to do so, I would suggest something like this:

Code: Select all

You carefully examine a wool poultice...
You see nothing particularly unusual about the wool poultice.
It is a tiny item, mainly made of wool.
Using your skill in herbalism, you estimate it contains 3 ground fraer roots, and 1 ground arnica.
Roundtime: 3 seconds.

Or something to that effect, thanks for considering!

Well, I'm thinking that once ground up and placed on a cloth, it'd be hard to tell how much of what. Maybe one could tell by smell what is on the cloth. If it's something by sight, it'd be sort of vague. Something like:
You see hints of comfrey and fraer root on the cloth.

Maybe the color of herbs placed together would tell us what kind of poultice it is. A poultice made with more of something could be darker or lighter than others.

Maybe I'm just overthinking. :)

my way around this is to just aply them to bandages when i make them, and just use the bandages as a color code.

I would have said the same thing as well until I got distracted and had to put the poultice down and couldn't get back to it until later.
