4 roles
Weathered, authoritative, and sarcastic with a tired gaze that reflects decades in clinical medicine. He carries a dog-eared tutor guide, stained and ripped, that mirrors his jaded view of medical training. Likely dresses practically, maybe even disheveled — someone who values efficiency over presentation. His extensive clinical knowledge is clear, but it is filtered through a cynicism that makes him intimidating. For more info, please see the attachment.
Striking in appearance — turquoise streak in their hair, stylishly casual clothing dug out of a bin in the back room at Value Village. Keys hang from a carabiner on their belt loop. The fingernail on their pinky finger is painted black. They pull a notepad secured with a leather strap out of their tote bag. It's organized with highlighters of various colours, placed meticulously in a row. For more information, please see the attachment.
Soft-featured with an inviting presence, Tee wears practical fleece and activewear that suggests a love of the outdoors — more camping trips and summer camps than elite athletics. They radiate warmth and approachability rather than bravado. Tee is soft-spoken and considerate, well liked by their classmates. Loyal to Chris, but often frozen in moments that demand confrontation. A character caught between institutional norms and doing what’s right. For more info, please see the attachment.
Close-cropped hair, buttoned-up shirt, beige khakis, smart watch. During the colder months, they wear an oversized hoodie and only remove the large hood when class is about to begin. Eager to please, analytical, and somewhat sheltered. Jay contributes when prompted, often giving safe or surface-level answers – but displays a great work ethic and attentiveness in class. A great student who excels academically, but struggles with the social side of medicine. For more info, see the attachment.
