Bloodstopper is a medical powder used by the Colonial military to prevent wounds from bleeding in an effective way. It immediately cauterizes gun-shot wounds and other types of bleedings by burning them, thus morpha is used along with it to ease the pain. It is included in standard medkits (Faith).

Notes

  • The idea of bloodstopper comes from writer Bradley Thompson[1].
  • Similar combat coagulants are used by today's armies.
