Basic Information
In the Unisystem there is a skill specialism named Unconventional Medicine. One of my players has got this skill and her specialization is Herbalism. After some thinking I decided that Herbalism needed some cool concoctions that would have nice in game effects without the cost of Essence or other stats.
To make sure that it does have a cost is that for the Concoctions you need herbs and other components and those are not always as easy to come by. In that way I can keep in hand how nasty this skill becomes.
