Description The surgeon, having successfully diagnosed a patient with a common disease, can cure it by careful surgical intervention, cutting out damaged tissue and rebalancing the patient’s humours.


The ingredients for this procedure depend on which disease is being cured, as follows:

  • Capricious Rot: The surgeon flushes the patient’s intestines and spleen with alchemical fluid, then injects chymos under the skin in inflamed areas. 1 chymos, 1 fluid.
  • Fungus Skin: The surgeon washes away visible fungal blooms with alchemical fluid, then thins the blood with ichor to speed the expulsion of spores. 1 ichor, 1 fluid.
  • Grinning Fool: The surgeon flushes the patient’s bladder, then injects cruor near the heart to encourage the circulation of spirituous humours. 1 cruor, 1 fluid.
  • Magebane: The surgeon performs some fine corrections to the kidneys and spleen, then injects a supply of fresh, healthy blood to revive circulation. 3 blood.
  • Trembles: The surgeon performs some subtle corrections to nerves running between the heart and limb, then injects ichor and cruor around the heart to encourage the heartbeat. 1 cruor, 1 ichor.

Once the procedure is finished, the symptoms of the disease abate, as if cured via the spell Cure Disease.
