Feature: Field Medic
As a medical student, part of your study is traveling around the world and learning about different races and biologies. During your travels, you've learned to heal people quickly and efficiently. When using a healer's kit, you bring a person back up to one hit point rather than just stabilizing them. You also have advantage on medicine checks to stabilize someone.
Suggested Characteristics
Medical students leave home or break off from their mentors in order to gain independence and knowledge in their field of studies. Some simply want to see and experience the world before returning, others seek to form their own practice, whether that be traveling or finding a place to settle down. Others simply want to gain recognition, power, and money.
