Healing Touch is a lesser theurgic healing spell.

Spell Description[edit]

Healing Touch is the lesser of two theurgic spells dedicated to healing. Touching a person, animal or even the caster himself after casting this spell heals minor wounds and restores a mediocre amount of health. If, however, more healing is needed due to serious wounds, then the spell Restoration, which is much more taxing on the theurgist, is required.

Lore[edit]

This is a healing spell, affecting minor wounds.
This is the least powerful of the healing spells of Stratos and one of the first usually learned by Adepts. The Focus necessary to cast this spell represents a pointing hand. The words that must be uttered at the moment of casting are 'In Mani.'
– from The Spell of Healing Touch (Ultima VIII)

Trivia[edit]

  • It heals about 8-16 points of damage.
  • The spell is plot-relevant, as it is needed to pass one of the tests of Theurgy by healing a wounded torax.
