Many regard unknown Physicians as either trumped up apothecaries or dangerous quacks until they’ve proven themselves. Skilled Physicians, however, are often well-respected members of their communities.

specialize in wielding firearms, specifically pistols. Pistoliers have only come into their own recently, as gunpowder
weapons have been relatively unstable until now in the Old World. Because of the expense of
