Dentist

A general anesthetic is given, a decaying tooth is removed, and the patient awakes feeling anew. Oral medicine is uncommon in most lands, but whether it's an aching fang, a cracked tusk, or missing teeth from a bar fight, a practitioner of dentistry can always cure what ails you.  In another time and another place you would have been a barber-surgeon, trained in basic medical practices from giving stitches to replacing teeth to the occasional piercing or haircut.  You are trained in a dying profession, using good old fashioned skills and know how in a world that increasingly relies on magic.

Suggested Characteristics

As a practitioner of a dying art, many view your work as antiquated save either for those too poor to afford the magical replacements or those so wealthy that an artisans touch is considered a sign of status.  The common folk welcome you and with time and practice, the wealthy will seek you out for the novelty of a 'real haircut' or perhaps a jeweled tooth.
