Class Feature Friday: Forensic Medicine Methodology (Pathfinder Second Edition Investigator Methodology)

(photography by drop-the-dagger on DeviantArt)

It is gristly work, but there is much that a body can tell us about the events that lead to their death if we know what to look for. Such is the basis of forensic medicine, and therefore, the subject we are looking at today.

The exact shape and results of a wound can tell the investigator what sort of weapon was used to make it, as well as anything unusual about it, while the presence of carrion insects can tell a lot about the time of death, and small marks and wounds might tell more about the exact circumstances that led to the deceased entering their current state. Imagine how this is extrapolated in a fantasy universe where a victim might show signs of unusual necrosis from a necromantic wound, or how they might show signs of extreme fright from a phantasmal killer spell, and so on.

While other investigators may be called in to examine the evidence of any sort of crime, today’s subject is almost exclusively expected to be investigating scenes of murder and death. However, their keen eye for detail can be used elsewhere, and their medical knowledge can also benefit the living. Such is the nature of their chosen profession.

In any case, this methodology might not have any fancy tricks like their counterparts, but with a little creativity and love of investigation fiction, it can be a perfect way to add some fun flavor to investigating, giving clues to upcoming foes.

With their training, these investigators have a knack for gaining additional details from examining cadavers. What’s more, they’re trained in medical practices, and able to heal themselves and others much more regularly through completely mundane methods.

That may be fairly basic, but there is one feats out there specifically tied to this methodology: Scalpel’s Point, which lets them use their knowledge of anatomy to strike for their foe’s arteries to cause bleeding.

Of course, other feats might prove useful for them as well, such as Flexible Studies, Known Weaknesses, That’s Odd, Ongoing Investigation, Connect the Dots, Predictive Purchase, Thorough Research, Whodunnit?, Reason Rapidly, Strategic Bypass, Reconstruct the Scene, and Just the Facts, though obviously some may be more useful to you depending on your build.

While not as flashy as other methodologies, being able to gain information specifically from the dead can be quite useful. What’s more, it’s unobtrusive, letting you dictate most of the rest of the build based on your own preference as well!

It’s a long-running trope that coroners and others that examine the dead tend to be… eccentric, to say the least. Often talking to the deceased or behaving in strange but otherwise harmless ways. If that fits what you’re going for with your character, then go for it, but don’t feel forced into it. Also remember that often in real life, forensic science is not always the foolproof method they portray it as in certain shows.

Exceptionally old for even a ghoran, Tender has watched friends grow up and die, while their own cycle of rebirth only briefly has interruptions. This has given them a fascination with the state of a body after death, which they’ve channeled into their investigative pursuits to bring murderers to justice.

A common method of disposing of bodies in the Red City is to feed them to the khefaks, a species of mineral-eating arthropods. However, the half-eaten body discovered in the pits shows signs of radiation poisoning, suggesting they were still alive when the radioactive specimen consumed them. Now the investigation turns to identifying the body and the sadist that doomed them to such a fate.

A recent string of serial murders has the city in an uproar, the only connecting factor being the method. The victims literally have their hearts ripped out by violent force, as if by an impossibly strong hand. Some has suggested a warrior bolstered by some potion of strength, while others think it might be some powerful wizard’s construct. Finding the truth will mean combing each killing for evidence.

Hi, what are your thoughts on MD Forensic Medicine? (For someone who loves clinicals and interacting with patients)

Hey! I personally chose general medicine specifically because I wanted patient interaction as well as the ability to practice my clinical skills.

With respect to forensic medicine, I don't believe you will get many chances to do that unless you also open your own private practice general clinic. At my college/hospital, FM department has a lot of work to do on the legal side of matters (consulting for the police, acting as professional witnesses, etc), and often the only direct contact they get with patients is by doing autopsies for foul play cases and other criminal/police cases. Live patient contact is less only compared to other 'completely clinical' specialities. I do not know if this is the case everywhere but I suspect so.

However, if you like the legal aspect of medicine, are fine with doing autopsies and are okay with opening a private clinic where you can have patient contact, then FM is worth considering. However, if you absolutely can't see yourself doing autopsies or interacting with law enforcement, or if you absolutely need to have patient contact throughout your working day, then I would suggest against it.

If anyone else has any advice for anon please do chime in! Maybe those who have done forensic medicine (in or out of India), or anyone who knows someone who's done FM?

Best Resources to Study FMT Online

In Forensic Medicine and Toxicology course, a medico is well informed about their medico-legal responsibility during MBBS. As a result, forensic toxicology is concerned with the medical and legal repercussions of the hazardous effects of substances on people.

The course’s goal is to increase undergraduate students’ ability for observation and legally sound inference. Additionally, the students are taught how to handle and manage medical-legal or criminal cases in an integrated manner.

It offers information about the administration, pertinent medical laws, practices, and requirements.

Forensic Medicine and Toxicology for UnderGraduates must be given equal importance as its significance is well-established during medical practice.

Highlight of the day was getting called by orthopaedics attending in the middle of forensic medicine lesson for him to show the anterior shoulder dislocation case he has just got and how he will reduce it. Was worth to leave the lesson suddenly. Like… Priorities, please 💅🏼

“And remember: don’t let the police or emergency services trap you into making a death certificate. If you aren’t 1000% sure it was natural, that is a job for the coroner.”

A Grim Glimpse into Anatomy

Trigger Warning: The following article discusses graphic content related to extreme gore, which may be disturbing to some readers. Please proceed with caution.

At its core, Herman the Shocker serves as a repository for images and videos that depict real-life injuries, autopsies, and other graphic content. These images, while deeply unsettling, reveal the consequences of trauma, disease, and violence on the human body. For forensic pathologists, coroners, and even medical students, such material can provide a harsh but real-world perspective on the fragility of life and the complexities of human anatomy.

Herman the Shocker, a notorious website known for its collection of graphic and disturbing images, offers a stark, albeit grim, window into human anatomy and the vulnerabilities of the human body. While the site is often associated with shock value and gore, there's a scientific aspect that can be examined, particularly from the perspective of medical and forensic professionals.

It's essential to emphasize that the content on Herman the Shocker is not curated with educational intent in mind. Unlike medical textbooks or professional training materials, the images are often presented without context, making them more suited for those with a specific interest or background in medicine or forensics. Additionally, the ethical implications of viewing and sharing such content must be carefully considered. The website operates in a gray area where the boundary between educational value and exploitation of graphic content can blur.

In the medical field, understanding the impact of trauma is crucial. The site’s content can illustrate the extent of injuries caused by accidents, violent acts, or self-inflicted harm, offering a visual supplement to clinical education. For instance, studying the images from a forensic standpoint allows professionals to learn about the mechanisms of injury—how different forces and tools affect the body differently—and to recognize patterns that can help in determining cause of death or in developing life-saving medical interventions.

While Herman the Shocker is primarily seen as a shock site, it inadvertently highlights the intersection of science, anatomy, and the macabre, offering a dark yet informative view into the human condition. This content should be approached with caution and a strong understanding of its intended use, whether for educational or professional purposes.

For those in the medical or forensic fields, sites like Herman the Shocker may offer a unique, albeit uncomfortable, opportunity to witness the extremes of human anatomy and the realities of life and death. Yet, it is vital to approach such content with respect for the individuals depicted and an awareness of the potential psychological impact of repeated exposure to graphic material.

When listening to the lightning storms in your area on a standard AM radio, you will hear a sound like bacon frying and this is the electromagnetic energy that the storm is generating. Plants react to this energy and may show vigorous growth during lightning seasons.
