Rags

Bandages and dressingsUncommon1x3 (3 Slots)20 g

Cloth strips torn from clothing; they stop bleeding like a bandage but carry a higher infection risk.

Cut an empty piece of clothing with a blade or similar cutting tool and choose Craft Rags to get roughly 1 to 6 rags, depending on the garment (the clothing is destroyed). Bandaging with rags takes about ten seconds and leaves you exposed, and that rags which are not disinfected have a 15% chance of causing a wound infection. They also work as a gag, as fireplace material and as a splint ingredient.
