Fast-Healing Spell

The fast healing spell is one of the most sought-after uses for a magic user's talents.

Effect

The fast healing spell can cure almost any physical injury if cast within a few minutes of occurrence.

Side/Secondary Effects

Limitations:
1. Does not work on illness. - The fast healing spell works by essentially reshaping the body to resume its healthy form. The only way this would work on illness is if a person used it the moment they became contaminated.
2. Can only work within a few minutes of the injury occurring. - Human magic is not time travel. The magic remembers the body's form from a few moments ago and puts it back in that shape. If too long has passed between injury and casting, the magic won't be able to remember in enough detail to undo the damage.
3. Body parts must be present if they are to be reattached. - If the extremity is NOT present, the magic will do its best to resume the previous shape without the necessary tissue. The victim will have an oddly-shaped, but fully healed, stump.
4. Cannot bring a person back to life if death has already occurred. - This magic can make a more presentable corpse, but it will not bring consciousness back.

Manifestation

It smells. It smells... wrong.

Source

It uses magic from the magical reserves of the area. Depending on the injury, it can create a noticeable draw on magical power for a day or two.

Discovery

This spell was created by the great healer-wizard, Simon. Simon developed most of the spells that transform the human body during his journeys as a healer after the war.
