Re: Fire and lowtech questions.
I read that people are more resistant to the toxic stuff in smoke then most other animals since we have had quite a while to evolve resistance. I assume dogs also. Doesn't mean it doesn't bother us just that it bothers most things even more.

Would magical healing remove the scarring effects of these serious burns? |

Re: Fire and lowtech questions.
There aren't any particular rules in GURPS for acquiring lasting injuries other than crippling, so whether the character recovers fully or suffers artistic scarring (with no mechanical effect) is up to the GM and/or player. A harsh realism campaign might have permanent lesser injuries, but harsh realism and DF aren't really compatible.

Otherwise, there's no specific mechanics so just assume that it fixes everything brand new ... and that natural healing does as well... |

Disadvantages gained in play don't give back any points, they just lower your point total.

Of course then you'd step outside your home in London and nearly die because of the coal smoke, until the mid 50s. All the news we heard about Chinese air quality around the last Olympics? The London air quality was worse. The long and the short of it is that we've had serious pressure to tolerate smoke - but it's always cool smoke, not the hot smoke you get from being in a fire. Small birds can be killed pretty darn quickly by second hand cigarettes, but nobody likes having the insides of their lungs blast-heated.
