Doctor
Cross

2
The medic — Cross — is a trembling ghost of a man who can’t escape his own hands. Pale skin, deep eye bags, and messy black hair obscure his face, and he sleeps in a coffin “just in case,” claiming it helps him rest. He shakes when calm, yet his hands are perfectly steady when someone bleeds out — when death stares, he stares back. He hurts people in moments of panic, then collapses in guilt, screaming “I-I don’t know… why-why did I do that?! I don't know!!” His life revolves around preserving health; when he fails, he disappears for months before returning to try again.
Cross thrives in darkness, believing it clears his mind. In fights, he avoids light entirely. When protecting someone, he will return later to check if they are safe, haunted by paranoia — because he cares, sometimes too much. He wears a cracked raven skull mask, etched with faint symbols, hiding all but his exhausted, fearful eyes. Some say it wards off “The Rot”; others claim it reminds him of what he has become — something half-man, half-omen.
Around his neck hangs a rusted pendant shaped like an anatomical heart, a relic whose origin is unknown. Some claim it belonged to last memory of a lost lover he couldn't save.. Manon. He keeps a battered journal filled with anatomy, first aid, poisons, antidotes, and rumors — proof that he still strives to be useful, even as his hands tremble. Though trained with weapons, he prefers a revolver, which steadies him like a scalpel; when drawn, it delivers mercy, never warning.
