[color=yellow]"Rightyo."[/color] chirped Lanny.

[color=yellow]"The heroic gag is a bodily reflex that combats even the most potent and deadly of toxins. Very few people are born with this marvellous gift. Those who are though, are considered chosen by the gods in some cultures. There are even rituals that are practiced in these cultures that tests whether one possesses this gift or not. The Shamira tribe in particular awards the status of chieftain to those who wield this heroic gag.[/color] enthused Lanny.

[color=yellow]"Though as you may have already guessed, such a gift causes quite the reaction. First it begins with the quickening of the heart, then the sweats alongside the rise in temperature. Then finally, you receive this huge burst of energy and power that courses through your veins. You feel invincible, able to take in many a foe. But then.."[/color] Lanny explained in-depth. 

He paused for a moment, his breath wheezed slightly. Lanny spoke so quickly and excitedly, that he needed to catch his breath. He took out a handkerchief from his left pants pocked and wiped his forehead. It was flushed with colour. 
With one last deep breath he continued his informative lecture.

[color=yellow]"One loses all of ones energy. One is then rendered unconscious by the sheer lack of energy that this defence brings. So much so that one is made bedridden for two days. Luckily I found you when I did, or who knows what would've happened to you. After two days you would be able to move no problem, but you'd be too weak to defend yourself."[/color] explained Lanny.

[color=yellow]"But I wouldn't be going around testing the limits of this gift if I were you young man. If you were less physically fit and in less than perfect health then, I dare say, you'd very well be much too weak for this reflex to work.[/color] counselled Lanny gravely.

[color=yellow]"And it goes without saying but please have someone around to feed you and help ease the inevitable fever. That's if you so decide to use this reflex again, for whatever reason. A friendly gnome such as myself probably won't be around to help you next time around."[/color] said Lanny cheerily.

[color=yellow]"But before I tell you anything more. I would like to know if you have come to understand what I have explained. No offence but you humans can be a bit slow at times. Especially when it comes to matters of medicine."[/color] Lanny explained.
