A reminder for those on the strike team that still need injuries tended to please see a medic as soon as possible. I was asked to work with the medical droids to make sure they could tend to everyone's needs, but I know that many of you for one reason or another would prefer not to disclose your powers or biology. I would still ask you to speak to a medic and remember that doctor patient confidentiality will be in effect.

I thought we should take the opportunity to share notes and see what we have in the medical department, both knowledge and skill wise. With people being brought from so many different universes, the fighters are not the only ones with a varied set of skills. And on addition of helping us know each other a little better, it would be useful to know who to ask for in specific cases.

I'll start. My name is Linda Carter. I started out as a nurse in my world, but returned to medical school and became a general practitioner. As such I specialize in routine health care, illnesses and various injuries. On addition to this, I have worked with nonhumans and can also perform emergency surgery if needed. And while I come from a place more technologically advanced than 18th century Paris, it is not as advanced as this one.

My name is Clarke Griffin and my mom was Chief Medical Examiner on the Ark, which I was a medical apprentice working under her until I got myself locked up. I was the doctor or healer depending on how you want to word it for the 100 or the delinquents as the adults liked calling us when they sent us back down to Earth.

I was their main medical help, which is why I can jump around to quite a few different things from illnesses to the serious stuff. I've only worked on my people and a few grounders. Unlike you, I know how to work with not much in the form of technology because where the Ark had that, we didn't when we hit Earth again. I had to use what came with us and sometimes a shock baton on more serious cases when the Ark came down and we had access to them again. But yeah, I enjoy working with equipment, but I know how to work without it or using what I can find around me.

I'm Anders. Technically, if we're being formal, I'm 'The Boy From The Anderfels', but that's a bit of a mouthful and not entirely accurate these days, so Anders will do fine.

I'm a mage. For those of you who don't recognise that word, it means I do magic. I could get into the nitty-gritty theory behind it but that's probably not relevant. Also, I play host to a ~~mostly~~ benevolent Spirit who in return powers some of my more impressive healing feats. The more enlightened individuals call this being a Spirit Healer, but most people file it in the same category as any other Abomination created when a demon takes a liking to a human host. Which is entirely unfair and small-minded but that's pretty much standard for home.

My parents handed me over to the Circle for formal training after I burned down a barn by accident; I spent the next few years escaping from, and being dragged back to, their tower, but I picked up a few things along the way so I'm not entirely useless.

The last time I escaped I ended up being inducted into the Grey Wardens rather than go back with the Templar jailers again; the Wardens are an elite order dedicated to fighting something we call the Darkspawn. They're semi-voluntarily infected with the Darkspawn Taint, so they can sense their enemies and sometimes hear what the enemy leader is planning (so... don't drink my blood or anything, if nightmares about corpse-armies aren't to your taste). I've done my share of battlefield healing in the Deep Roads, but eventually the Warden thing got old (they made me give up my cat, for one thing. Bastards) so I ran away from there too.

For the last few years I ran a free clinic in a slum in Kirkwall, so I've hands-on experience with a whole host of injuries and illnesses and have delivered a few babies as well.
