Physician
Description:
As towns grow to become cities, the need for professional health care
increases accordingly. In a city, referring to the local homeopath
with old wisdom is no longer a practical alternative, especially with
the new diseases plague the urban population. A new kind of healer is
needed, with documented expertise, clinical mind and all-round knowledge
of the ailments and treatments of the body.

Qualifications:
As a healer, you need to have a passion for curing the ill, to heal the
wounded, to make people feel and become better. The job, though well paid, can
be ungrateful at times, and only a burning desire to help people can keep
you up. Second, you need to be well-read, with a clinical and sharp mind,
being able to accurately diagnose a problem. Third, people skills come in
very handy.
Descendants of herbivores have a natural advantage in this profession,
as they have in general better knowledge of herbs and lack the kill-eat
instinct that makes it so difficult for carnivores to stay clinically
aloof.
