Current Character Sheet for Elyssara Vey

Elyssara Vey's skills as a medic are not just limited to holo-books and lectures. She has read up and practiced a handful of experimental treatments while inventing a few home remedies of her own. This allows Elyssara Vey to work outside the box in less than ideal situations, and can lead to her solving mysteries other trained medics might struggle with. This, of course, comes with its own string of failures, as nothing is ever perfect. That, and some of the more established professionals in the field often doubt or question Elyssara Vey's alternative practices. She typically brushes them off in favor of doing everything she can to help a patient, but does quietly seek recognition for accomplishments as a healer.

Elyssara Vey's life is filled with training and learning for all sorts of situations, from the mind-numbingly normal to the utterly bizarre. As such, Elyssara Vey has developed into a rather resourceful individual. This has made Elyssara Vey a mix of academic and scholar, always with something to offer to any discussion. However, knowledge and training does not always translate well to the tense environment of the battlefield, and no amount of textbooks can prepare one for reality...

Elyssara Vey is a lateral thinker, and when she encounters problems or dilemmas, she is very good at improvising and coming up with alternative solutions. This allows Elyssara Vey to find ways out of situations others might give up on. While these solutions are often not so obvious to others, Elyssara Vey can typically explain and lead others through her plan...as long as they are patient and willing enough to trust her outside thinking.

Elyssara Vey has been patching up the wounded for years as a Medic and has come to the conclusion that more often than not, the injuries are either self inflicted or deserved. While she will always work tirelessly on behalf of her patient in an ongoing quest to preserve all life, that doesn’t stop her from scolding or belittling patients that she feels should know better than to walk into a rancor pit with a bucket of raw meat. Elyssara Vey teeters on the line between compassion and supporting selective evolution, which can make her come off as less friendly or inviting than other medics.

Elyssara Vey, like most of her peers, has trained with a blaster though, just like any weapon, hates to use it. Instead, when forced to fight, Elyssara Vey will use her surgical scalpels and anesthetics (poisons) to attempt to injure and incapacitate opponents. This requires her to get extremely close to her attackers and leaves her vulnerable to more maritally-inclined fighters and ranged specialists.

Sometimes the only way to prepare for the worst is to always expect it. Elyssara Vey takes this philosophy one step further by never leaving home without accounting for every possible scenario she might expect to encounter. Elyssara Vey tends to always have the right tool or item for a situation and has a habit of quietly and almost smugly presenting solutions before anyone even recognizes there is a problem. This foresight is far from infallible, however, and she often finds herself at a loss in situations that go beyond what she could have imagined. While incredibly practical and often a life-saver in a pinch, her perpetually pessimistic outlook on daily life can be a bit draining on more optimistic-inclined companions.
