===Dr Bartholomew Price===

'''Played by:''' Civil Savage

'''Country of Origin:''' Great Britain

'''Archetype:''' Doctor

'''Gender:''' Male


'''Background'''

Dr. Price had a comfortable life. He was liked and respected by his peers and his patients, despite a tendency to mix his metaphors or say things that sounded a bit odd. Then he took a sabbatical to visit the Pacific. He thought it would be his last great adventure before he found someone to marry and settled down to a safe, predictable experience.

On his trip he heard tales of events that defied ready explanation. He would investigate these with an eye toward debunking them--and often did. But one he could not explain, and it rattled him. Eager to know more, he found a role as a ship's physician that would let him explore the area and see if perhaps his scientific view was missing something important.

: This world-traveler has an ear for languages. She begins play knowing half her Smarts die type in different Language skills of her choice at d6.

'''Healer'''
: A hero with this Edge adds +2 to all Healing rolls, whether natural or magical in nature.

'''Elan'''
: Elan means energy or spirit. Those who have it rise to the occasion when the going gets toughest. When you spend a Benny to reroll a Trait, add +2 to the total. The bonus applies only when rerolling. It doesn’t apply to damage rolls (since they’re not Trait rolls), nor does it apply to Soak rolls unless you’re using another Benny to reroll the Vigor check.
