Name: Eleni Damaris

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Role/Title: Field Medic

Affiliation: Military infantry unit

Origin: Small coastal Greek city

Appearance:

Eleni has olive-toned skin from being outside a lot, and dark brown hair that almost looks black. She always keeps it in a long fishtail braid over her left shoulder and never takes it down. Her eyes are dark brown and usually look tired, but focused. She wears simple, practical clothes like a linen dress, apron, and cloak. Her clothes are often stained from her work, and her hands have small scars and marks from treating injuries.

Personality:

Eleni is calm in stressful situations and doesn’t panic easily. When people are hurt, she focuses on helping them instead of comforting them, so she can come off as a little cold. She tells the truth instead of giving false hope, but she always stays and does everything she can.

She wasn’t always like this. There was a time when she was more open and easier to talk to, especially with someone in her unit—an infantry soldier she grew close to. They spent a lot of time together between marches and battles, and he was one of the only people who could make her relax. But he was killed in combat, and she couldn’t save him. After that, she changed. She stopped letting people get close and became more distant, focusing only on her work.

She is very stubborn and pushes herself too hard, often skipping rest because she feels responsible for others. She remembers the people she couldn’t save and carries that guilt with her. Because of this, she works even harder to improve.

Even though she isn’t very expressive, she does care. She pays attention to small things about the soldiers she treats and quietly looks out for them. She doesn’t trust people easily anymore, and when she does, it’s rare. She also struggles with authority sometimes, especially when orders go against what she thinks is right.

Medic Profile:

Eleni works as a field medic for the military, treating soldiers during and after battle. She specializes in wounds, infection care, and keeping people alive long enough to get proper help.

She first learned from a healer in her village, then trained more in the military. She prefers safe, proven methods instead of taking risks. She works quickly and efficiently, even if she seems harsh.

Combat/Survival:

She has basic combat training but avoids fighting when possible. She carries a small knife, mostly as a tool, but can use it if needed. She is good at surviving in rough conditions, like finding herbs, clean water, and treating injuries in the field.

Gear:

She carries a leather satchel with bandages, herbs, salves, needles, and tools. She also has a small mortar and pestle and a notebook filled with medical notes.

Background:

Eleni grew up in a small Greek coastal town and learned healing from a local woman. She also has a brother who serves in the army, which is part of why she chose to join the military as a medic—to stay close to him and make sure she could help if he was ever hurt.

When a disease spread through her village, many people died, and she felt like she failed them. After that, she left to learn more and eventually joined the military. Now she travels with soldiers, treating injuries and trying to save as many lives as she can.

Connections:

She works closely with soldiers but keeps emotional distance from most of them. She is especially protective of her brother, even if she doesn’t say it out loud. She still respects her old mentor but doesn’t stay in contact much. She doesn’t fully trust authority.

Brother:

Solider:

Father:

Mother:

Notes:

She refuses to take her hair out of its braid because it’s one of the only things she feels she can control. She secretly blames herself for every person she couldn’t save, especially the soldier she lost.

Still trying to choose names lol
