Sleeping heals mortal wounds!
« on: May 18, 2011, 04:00:10 pm »

Shit happens:
Code: [Select]
The Night Creature punches You in the upper body with his left hand,
  bruising the muscle and bruising the heart through the «-bronze mail
  shirt-»!
  The Lasher misses The Night Creature!
  The Night Creature strikes at You but the shot is blocked!
  The Spearman is no longer stunned.
  The Bowman stands up.
  The Night Creature loses hold of the copper meat cleaver.
  You slash The Night Creature in the head with your «☼iron two-handed
  sword☼» and the severed part sails off in an arc!
  Lithéme Omelòmifo Thadaroayanu, Night Creature has been struck down.

Big red Mortal wound is blinking... Oh, crap. That's been a nice adventurer, done many interesting things.
I do Shift + Z and adventurer goes asleep, hoping for nothing.

But sleeping heals, and my adventurer wakes up completely healthy. Congratulations with a second birthday! Very impressive =)

I had a bruised heart earlier today.
It didn't kill me, despite my wandering through several mountain ranges with the "Mortal Wound" thing blinking. I don't think a bruised heart is actually fatal. It's only bruised.

OK, so the Mortal Wound tag is inaccurate, so no sleeping would be needed. Heard that  it's impossible to travel/sleep when heavy bleeding, so my trick wouldn't work in case of more severe heart damage.

Bruised heart is not a mortal wound, as is a single bruised lung (two however, that's a different story). Getting disemboweled is also a mortal wound but it doesn't count it as so. Like others have said the mortal wound tag is inaccurate.
