Her orange clothing is hard to make out under an assortment of bandages, some of which are starting to bleed through. Her gaze occasionally drifts off, as if day dreaming, and you have to wonder if the years of the life of an empath take a bigger toll on the body or the mind.

== Healing Policy ==
She heals just about everyone, corpses, no matter the severity.
She does expect to be thanked for her work. This does not mean money or necessarily 'tips', a "Thank you" or a hug works too. When working ''on duty'' as a PHA empath, or when specifically asked for a heal, she will usually charge the patient with the [[Professional Healers Association]] rate.

She will attempt to remain neutral in any conflict she was not originally involved in, and will heal any member of a conflict not actively involved in fighting. That being said, she also reserves the right to walk away from people who start dragging away patients (living or dead) or 'harming the help'.

Strongly believes if you feel the need to nap, you shouldn't be in the infirmary or main room of the Crossing Empath's Guild, especially if you're '''not''' an empath.
