@LoganFive @michaelgemar @dgar I once played a cleric who was charging the other players for each healing spell. He was not loved.

As game master, I gave the party an NPC cleric as nobody wanted to play the healer.

He had them sign a magical contract, that the players didn't realize could let him undo his healing if they didn't pay him.

He took wounds off them, put them on himself, then inflicted them as an attack on others to heal himself.

That was a fun NPC.

@pseudonym @Em0nM4stodon @LoganFive @dgar I like the notion that healing and wounding are two sides of the same coin.

What system was this?

Yeah, was probably d&d 3. Maybe 3.5 Was many years ago. A bit of GM fiat may have been involved.
