Field Medic

You weren’t trained in dusty libraries—you learned medicine where it mattered: on the battlefield, in plague-ridden towns, or patching up idiots who thought they could fight a troll. You’ve seen blood, panic, and death… and learned how to stop at least one of those.

You’re not just a healer—you’re the reason people survive long enough to need one.
