Healing encompasses the recuperation of lost hit points resulting from combat and various incidents, playing a pivotal role in safeguarding the survival and overall health of game characters. Hit points can be restored through several means, which include:

Rest: requires time to recover and gain hit points on a daily basis; see aid rest.
Class Abilities: lay on hands.
Food Effects. Hit points can be healed through the consumption of a meal, if the character is made to feel sated, happy or elated.
Healing Spells: cure light, serious and critical wounds, aid, goodberry, heal and heroes' feast.
Magic Items: the Cup of Al'Akbar, healing salve, Keoghtom's ointment, a periapt of wound closure, potions of healing and extra-healing, a ring of regeneration and scrolls with the above-mentioned spells.
Natural Abilities: regeneration.
Places: glades, shrines
Sage Abilities: aid rest, bring comfort, ceramic ornament and horse physiology.
