Mark of Healing

Dragonmarked
The Mark of Healing grants curative magical powers.

House: The halflings of House Jorasco carry the Mark of Healing and operate the Healers Guild, which controls both the mundane and magical healing trades. A sick or injured person in Khorvaire is far more likely to seek healing from the Healers Guild than from any temple, and in fact most temples do not offer healing services for sale (though they still heal their own champions and faithful when necessary).

Unmarked members of House Jorasco are expertly trained in the healing arts, as well as in fields such as alchemy and herbalism.

The Jorasco Tribe

The Jorasco tribe no longer exists in The Talenta Plains. While the Ghallanda tribe did not exist before their mark united them in service, the Jorasco tribe existed before the gift of healing. When Karrn the conquerer marched across the Talenta Plains, the Jorasco tribe took the opportunity to relocate to Vedykar, abandoning its ancestral paths. The few halflings who chose not to follow dispersed and joined other tribes, and even today the Mark of Healing occasionally manifests amongst the Talentan halflings.
