Using the TEND verb, bandages can be applied to a bleeding wound. The success of this is based on ranks of First Aid. Tending wounds causes roundtime for both the tender and the tendee with a maximum of 60 seconds. If the tender does not have the required amount of ranks to tend to a wound, but has at least half of the ranks required, a bandage covering half of the bleed amount will be applied. The DIAGNOSE and HEALTH verbs will show a player whether or not they can bandage a wound, and how much roundtime it will incur.

Bandages can last for a number of offensive actions equal to the tender's (First Aid Ranks / 10), after which they will fall off and the player will begin bleeding again.

Syntax

Where {area} may be one of the following

  • Head
  • Neck
  • Chest
  • Back
  • Abdomen
  • R/L Arm
  • R/L Hand
  • R/L Leg

Note: Eye injuries (bruised, blinded, missing) do not bleed.

Roundtime Formula (Additional ranks past the above requirement reduce RT by 1s each, minimum 3s):

(15 + (2 * Bleed/Round) + (2 * (3 * (Severity - 2) + Difficulty)))
