Doctor
Physical description:
Neat. Always Neat. Rayven has waist-length black hair and dark blue eyes. She has a rather gothic dress sense and will usually be found in some form of black, but it's always an outfit that allows movement. Rayven is a little on the short side, so often wears boots of some kind, but always ones that she can move easily in.
Personality/Roleplaying tips:
Rayven is obsessively neat, her clothing and her things are always laid out precisely, and everything has it's place. Because of this she can get a bit flustered when things have been moved.
Rayven isn't much of a talker, she talks when she has something useful to say or not at all, and gets a little irritated at people who talk nonsense.
Doesn't believe in 'sugar-coating' if someone's hurt bad, then she'll tell them the truth or nothing. The only exception to this is when is will harm her patient to be told the truth.
Rayven is usually calm under pressure, unless you mention something to the effect of her clothing style affecting her ability.
Skills/Abilities:
Rayven is a skilled surgeon but has some general knowledge of the basics of medicine.
In her spare time Rayven does Origami and often decorates her room with all sorts of paper items.
Rayven also makes her own clothing, stating (if asked) that she can never find things that fit right.
Private motivation:
Rayven wants to find somewhere where people wont look at her strangely for her clothing style, or assume that her clothing has something to do with her skill as a doctor.
Rayven would like a family some day.
History:
Rayven was an only child and her mother died shortly after she was born of a disease that the core world doctors couldn't understand let alone stop. Her father was a independance suppoter and fostered that opinion in his daughter. Rayven showed an interest in medicine at an early age and her father encouraged her in her choice of occupation and supporting her through her training. Then when she graduated he took her on a tour of various core and rim planets so she could decide where she wanted to use her skills, on a core planet or work where she was really needed, in the rim.
Rayven and her father wandered the rim for a few years looking for somewhere to set up. But before they'd foun something Rayven's father became unwell. Rayven did her best but she wasn't trained in diagnosis and he died on the way to the hospitals as Rayven struggled to get him back to the core in the hopes of finding a doctor trained in diagnosis...
Rayven promised her father that she would continue her search for somewhere to use her skills to help the rim-folk as best as she could... Rayven decided that the best way to do that would be to travel with a ship and began looking for a place on a ship that travelled the rim.
Rayven was confused at peoples reluctance to accept her as a surgeon, she didn't understand it until she managed to get work on a ship that was desperate for a surgeon as their pilot was suffering from appendicitus and wouldn't make it to a core hospital. After she had fixed up their pilot she over heard the captain with one of the other members of the crew commenting on how effective she could be if she dressed in black all the time... As if she was all ready for the funeral... Rayven was furious that anyone would think that her clothing had anything to do with her skill and resolved to show them by demonstrating her skill, showing them that she was just as good as their last surgeon. Unfortunately she didn't get the chance as they kicked her off at the next port, "Come back when you don't look like you're going to a funeral." said the captain as her tossed her off the ship.
Rayven wandered the dock, looking for a ship that wouldn't care what she wore...
