Ashlyn Olivia Winters

25 Years Old/8th January 1993

Female/Heterosexual

Nationality: English
Ethnicity: White
Religious Beliefs: Athiest
Political Beliefs: Not political
Disabilities: None

Physician 1st year resident (wants to specialise in trauma/emergency medicine)

Ash can be described as an English Rose as she has the pale skin and a rosiness in her cheeks, her eyes are hazel and she has long red hair. Her hair is naturally thick and wavy and she usually wears it in a plait or bun to keep it out of her way. Other than freckles across her nose she doesn't have any other blemishes or marks. She is five foot nine and has a slender build with small hips and bust, she has a fast metabolism allowing her to eat pretty much anything without having to watch her weight. However this does mean she is always struggling to put on weight.

When not on shift she has a distinct rock chick style with skinny jeans, t shirts and plaid shirts and her trusty black leather jacket. She doesn't really wear much jewellery except a watch and a pendant that holds some of her fathers ashes. She has one tattoo on her left wrist which is a series of words spiralling around her wrist (it looks like several bracelets) the words are a viking prayer about Valhalla.

Ash has perfected the mask she wears to hide her true feelings and portrays herself as bulletproof. Most people only see the confidence and assurance she allows them to see. She uses sarcasm to deflect conversation or questions she wants to avoid answering as well as ensuring others didn't get too close.

Very few see the true Ash, as she only lets her guard down around a small group of people she trusts completely. An advantage of hiding her feelings has meant that is able to at least appear calm and confident in stressful situations (even if inside she is panicking) Her biggest strength is her sheer grit and determination, no matter how many times she gets knocked down she just gets back up again, she just refuses to give up. Her other main strength is her loyalty and if you manage to gain her trust, which isn't easy, then you will have her in your corner no matter what.

Her main weakness is her inability to ask others for help, persistently trying to do everything alone, and this leaves her open to failure. Her other weakness is her lack of verbal filter, she is incredibly blunt spoken, and says what she is thinking without any regard for others feelings. She doesn't do this deliberately, it is more that she just can't help it, and this is always landing her in trouble.

Ashlyn Olivia Winters was born in the north of England in a village near the Scottish border to an English father and an American mother. Her childhood was pretty uneventful and other than growing up bored, there was very little to do in the village, she was happy. An only child she had loving parents who made time for her even though both held down full time positions, and ensured she did not lack for anything. Ash had decided early on that she wanted to be a doctor like her father and, through hardwork and determination, she managed to gain the results she needed to go to medical school.

Whilst she was at home for the holidays she and her father were in a serious car accident (their car was hit by a drunk driver in a truck) her father was killed and Ash was seriously injured. Ash was devastated she had always been closest to her father, they were scarily alike.
After recovering Ash continued her medical training in the UK though her mother, whose family still lived in America, had decided to move back to America to be closer to her family. After completing medical school Ash decided that she wanted to be closer to her mother and that she needed a change of scenery (too much reminded her of her father) and so she decided to apply to complete her medical training in the US. She applied as an International Medical Graduate and was accepted to Caduceus Memorial Hospital.

Rosalina Elizabeth Perova

11/21
27 years old

Herterosexual

1st year Resident - highly interested in Cardio

Standing at around 5'5", and on the petite end of the weight scale - is Rosa. She usually keeps her brown shoulder length hair up in a bun or ponytail whilst at work. Because of her small frame, it is easily noticed that her scrubs and jacket tend to hang off her body in a baggie fashion. On the clock, Rosa tends to keep her face clean of all makeup, the one thing she never leaves the door without though - is either a nude or deep red lipstick.

Outside of the hospital, Rosa wears her hair down with deep waves/curls. Her style is a bit retro, and tends to wear loose fitting clothes outside of work. She is always seen wearing something rather 'classy' than 'risqué,' just claiming it isn't her style. She has two distinct moles - one above her upper lip right under her nose, the other resting on her left cheek.

Evaluation Observations:
The only true being that knows Rosa - is Beasely. The laid back 8 year old Siamese cat that she's had since he was but a small kitten. When she is away from everyone, Rosa indulges into a nice Malbec bottle, and some classic Bosa Nova tunes. Dancing around her apartment to ease the tension of her terrible days at work. She seems to be a bit more chipper alone than around others. Enjoying the bit of freedom she gets from behind the hospital walls. Though get drunk around her and you will see this fun side of her, it's usually packed away tightly in her hall closet with any of her other skeletons she hides.

Actual Personality:
Though of course like anyone, she is more open to those that are closest to her - Rosa is still a bit closed off. She had no traumatic life incident that caused her to be a bit more reserved than others, just how she's always been. When it comes to elders and superiors Rosa is the most polite person, making sure to use every ounce of respect she can give. Many might call this 'brown nosing' in the right situation. Though she doesn't end these pleasantries to her coworkers, you can also find her extending her respect out to them as well. Aside from this, Rosa pushes herself to constantly be on top and be the best - even if it means over stepping a boundary. Failing this internship isn't an option for her.
When a trauma busts through the hospital doors, Rosa is usually first on the scene. Stressful situations have always been meant with a calm and level head - which is why she felt she would be best in surgery. Nothing exactly caused her to squirm in disgust, everything was met with a brimming and bright interest.
Love has always been fleeting for her, mainly because of her dominating and controlling personality. Wanting to be the one slightly in charge, and making all the decisions. So someone who can keep her in her place would be ideal, but it seems that she finds men who let her walk all over them and its these relationships that don't last long in her life. Aka - she's been in many relationships and labels herself a 'hopeless romantic'. All because she finds herself getting bored with a man that lets himself be ran over by her.

History:
A simple life is all that someone could ask for, and it's exactly what Rosa got. She grew up in the suburbs outside of Philly - went to school, got good grades, grew up with both parents. Rosa had no complaints growing up. Her family was middle-class, so she never experienced any financial hardships. Her parents always ensuring that their children got everything they needed to enjoy their time whilst growing up. Rosa was the middle child of 3. Damien was her older brother at 31, and Jared her younger at 23. Growing up with two brothers is believed to be the reason that Rosa is a bit more forward with her attitude - yours would be too if you had the most annoying brothers in the world.
After all the siblings grew older, each of them started to choose their paths. Damien wanted to become a Lawyer, Rosa a Med Lab Technician, and Jared a Pro Football player. Out of the three, Jared didn't exactly see anything past being a Pro Football player, so the other two just kinda always encouraged him knowing it was a likely dead ended career....especially when you weren't all that good at football. Upon entering her first year of College - Rosa would meet her future fiancé, Jorge. The two would court for about a year, and date few a few years after that. He would pop the question a week before graduation, and a week before she got the news that she was accepted at a hospital out west.
Despite this being the worst hardship she ever had to endure in her life - the arguing of whether she would go or not. It was decided that Jorge would meet her out there eventually. As his schooling and preaccepted internship at a Lawyers Office would find him trapped in Philly for another few years.
Also, what would ya know - Rosa was accepted at CMH as a part time Phlebotomist/Full Time MLT. She mainly found herself in the Lab testing every kind of Human secretion there is. But her interest changed quickly, shortly after she joined CMH. Watching the surgeons and occasionally being the room during consults as she drew blood - led to the discovery that she wanted to become a Surgeon. So with some strings pulled - at the age of 20 - Rosa went back to school in California and began her schooling. Eventually leaving CMH and returning as an Intern years later. The upside to this is that Rosa knows a few faces, and seems to have a small foot in the door here - but everything is a lot more cut throat when you're coming back at the bottom of the food chain.

"One day...One day I just want to be the best Cardio Surgeon there is. Admittedly - savings lives is amazing...but holding a living..beating heart in your hand? Just kinda takes your breath away. If one day I can just understand the whole thing, and know what to do every time there is a complication...that'd be the day my dream came true".

Many people know Rosa as a well adjusted, and well mannered human. She has no ill-will for anyone, and doesn't wish any harm on others. But the biggest thing, is that she likes to succeed. It has been known that she will do what she can to come out on top - and get the approval of her Superiors. Amongst her peers - many may not be the biggest fan of this slight know it all/kiss ass. Amongst the Superiors - well some like her enthusiasm, others find it rather annoying.

| Currently Engaged - wears ring on necklace and doesn't talk about engagement. Fiancé lives across the country.
| Owns one cat named Beasley
| Lives alone in an apartment a few blocks from the Hospital.

Edmund Roman Cortez

37 years old

Hetero

Head Surgeon in the Pediatrics Department

-

Evaluation Observations:
Edmund still resides in the house that he and his late wife bought together - here he lives a life of solitude. Nothing has exactly changed, except that now the house is filled with the mourning sounds of older country music. He sinks into his depression when he is alone, mumbling along drunkenly to the lyrics of the next side song he decides to play. Though he does try and break out of this routine by working out. It is a weird emotional rollercoaster he rides, but he tries to push through it all anyways.

Actual Personality:
Outside of his sad little den of a house, Edmund is keeps to himself. He doesn't exactly include himself into conversations unless brought in. He is known to everyone as a serious being, it is a rarity to see him laugh outside of a bar. Ed tends to be extremely harsh to those that are on his Service, but in turn - its also because he doesn't want anyone fucking up on his service. He wants every to succeed - and if you can't handle his teaching methods, he'd prefer you just leave.

History:

Bonita Laurel Faith Richardson

April 3rd 1993, 25

Female | Bisexual

Harvard Graduate | Girl Scout | Party Girl | Little Miss Sunshine | MD

First Year Surgical Resident - Interested in Cardiothoracic Surgery

Bonnie is, obviously, a very pretty young woman and she carries herself with all the confidence and bubbliness that affords her. Bonnie is known for being particularly effeminate in both mannerisms and dress sense. She often sports chic, stylish outfits and is partial to inappropriate heeled shoes, dresses and skirts and flowery and colourful blouses. While she tends to keep to a more toned down dress sense in her professional life; only donning scrubs if she is the on-call surgical resident or is planned to go to the OR, outside of the hospital Bonnie tons a much more revealing, sexier style. She knows what to wear to highlight her body and she isn't afraid to do so.

Evaluation Observations:
Bonnie is, to those around her, a very fun and very bright girl. She is genuine and straightforward, uplifting in nature and exceedingly loyal. Bonnie is one of those people who almost everyone seems to like; she is friendly, efficient, makes small talk and always seems to be at ease. Even when facing stressful situations it is rare for her to be anything other than calm, assured and pleasant. She is known for having fun; banter with the nurses, flirting with her co-workers and she has a reputation for being able to down more shots than any of the Emergency Department staff. She can be a touch promiscuous at times and has the habit of speaking up whenever she feels she should. Bonnie seems to have little understanding or faith in the hierarchy of the hospital, and often wrongly, believes she is free to speak up whenever she deems appropriate.

Actual Personality:
Bonnie is a confident young woman and she is unafraid to take risks, is quick to judge and act. Clinically, she is exceedingly capable. There are few situations in which Bonnie finds herself unable to take action and the frequent emergencies within medicine often fail to catch her off guard. To add to her great qualities as a doctor Bonnie is very sociable, she is often the centre of attention in social circles and has excellent people skills - backed up with a passion for patient care and a person-centred approach. Unfortunately for Bonnie many of her great strengths are also some of her greatest weaknesses. Bonnie is, for lack of a better term, ballsy and sometimes is ballsier than a first-year resident should be. She does not always assess the risks of a situation before acting and has a nasty habit of overstepping the line. Her passionate nature can also work against her when she becomes too worked up or involved in a case and loses her clinical objectivity. While Bonnie certainly has the medical skill required to be a surgeon, she does not have the typical personality of one. Bonnie is an open book; she lacks reserve and keeps few secrets about herself and she, often wrongly, presumes that other people do the same making her a poor judge of character and giving her the mistaken thought process that her colleagues are a team and in it together - this causes her to trust her colleagues are genuine with their intentions and makes her a bit of a pushover. She easily feels guilty about leaving her fellow doctors and nurses in the lurch and can easily be persuaded to undertake more unpleasant tasks or switch duties with someone because she believes that should she find herself in need, the same kindness will be paid back to her. When it comes to men Bonnie is attracted to her natural confidence propels her forward and she is known for, in some cases quite literally, grabbing what she wants. Despite her flaws, it is clear to most people who meet Bonnie that, like most of the rest of her first-year classmates, all she wants is to be a good doctor, capable surgeon and decent human being.

History:
Bonita Laurel Faith Richardson is the first of three children. Her parents went with the name as their attempt at being cute, they failed. As a young girl, Bonnie didn't particularly have many desires or dreams, she had the usual kid stuff of becoming the little mermaid or saving all of China, or going off with a handsome prince but no practical life goals but she liked to know how things worked. She would always take apart broken things, often simply breaking them further, to see where the problem was. She liked fixing things and helping people in the same way most children do. When she became a big sister for the first and second time she enjoyed helping her parents care for them - but there was never any one single event that inspired Bonnie to become a doctor.

One only needs to have a conversation with Bonnie to understand that she came from a privileged home and is relatively sheltered. Her parents worked good jobs and could afford a nanny and the latest clothes, shoes and gadgets that the children wanted. A relatively materialistic upbringing to say the least. Bonnie spent much of her childhood with nice possessions which attracted plenty of other friends - and once she hit puberty, she had little trouble attracting boys. Bonnie had the typical pretty rich girl high school experience; a hot boyfriend who was captain of a sports team, prom queen, cheerleading squad, student council president. The whole cliche, and the whole kind of thing that looks great on college and med school applications.

Bonnie had always been a great student and whilst she had a love of organic chemistry (nobody knows why not even Bonnie) the prospect of sitting in a lab all day didn't thrill her. She wanted something challenging, varied and meaningful. And also to be able to live, which given the way the economy was going was pretty 50/50. But despite her woes, Bonnie found herself thriving in the college environment. Her good looks made her popular with men and women alike and her taste and tolerance for alcohol, and every now and then something else, made the party experience enjoyable every time. It was an enthused college professor who first brought up medical school to Bonnie - which at first seemed like an outrageous suggestion - surely the Sorority Queen of the Keg Stand couldn't be a doctor? But a few weeks volunteering at a nursing home, continued good grades, a stint in the debate club and previous accolades proved otherwise and Bonnie found herself a student at Harvard Medical School.

Medical School seemed to fly by for Bonnie; she was sat in her first-day lectures one minute and enjoying her final elective placement the next. During her studies, Bonnie had found a passion for medicine, a nice boyfriend and had settled with the idea of becoming an OB/GYN. But everybody knows they say about people making plans. Due to an unfortunate, but not uncommon, administrative error and mix up Bonnie's elective placement at Baylor was switched to the Cardiothoracic Department. She wasn't exactly happy about it, but Bonnie knew she could smile politely and retract for six weeks but four hours into her first shift saw the team perform an emergency thoracotomy on a victim of a stabbing; Bonnie watched from start to finish in awe and a love of a cardio was implanted within her. The divine inspiration finally struck and Bonnie spent the next six weeks learning all she could.

The time for matching into a speciality programme came, as it does for all medical graduates, and Bonnie made a strong but admittedly last-minute application to the best surgical programmes in the country. Including the programme at Caduceus Memorial Hospital as she heard the curriculum provided plenty of opportunity to for secondments into specialist areas, research and a chance to build up a strong sub-specialist portfolio ready for boards. Her boyfriend at the time, Noah, also applied to the same programmes for his chosen field of Orthopaedics but he lacked Bonnie's charisma and natural talent and only landed with a few interviews - only one of which was anywhere close to Caduceus Memorial who hadn't even shortlisted him for an interview. He ended up getting his eight choice programme in Texas, but two days later Bonnie was accepted into the surgical programme at Caduceus Memorial Hospital. A mixture of jealousy and knowing the distance wouldn't work ended the relationship and Bonnie moved to California ready to begin her surgical career.

A pretty girl with a heart of gold who wants to befriend everyone, a great doctor but easy to step over if you feel so inclined. Ballsy and sharp but doesn't always think things through.

Despite being somewhat of a vixen with men, Bonnie has next to no game when it comes to women and so she tends to avoid women she is attracted to.

Calvin Jason Hawthorne

10/23 & 26
Orange County, CA

Male & Hetero

Trust fund kid-Frat boy(Kappa Sigma)-Atheist but Superstitious-African American-Democrat-Stanford Grad-Doctor

Medical Resident: First Year, interested in ER med

The first thing people notice about Cal is his smile, friendly, genuine, inviting, and an almost constant accessory. Those few years of braces as a kid paid off as his teeth are straight and he does everything he can to keep them whiter than freshly fallen snow. After the smile, he stands out for being tall; standing at 6'1, dark, and most importantly to him, handsome. Cal takes pride in his appearance; he works out, eats well, keeps his hair and goatee trimmed, and dresses well. Although he prefers a casual look he has plenty of nice clothes, and enjoys dressing up in nicer clothes and suits when he needs to. Ears are pierced, he likes a little bling, and he has a weakness for nice watches.

Evaluation Observations:
Calvin tries hard to make a good first impression; warm, outgoing, and personable, he’s never had an issue in social situations. He’s very confidant, which often comes off as arrogant, and he can be very stubborn at times and people he doesn’t know very well are not likely to sway his mind once it’s made up. Having grown up wealthy he’s not great with money management or understanding what it’s like to not be wealthy which makes him seem spoiled and entitled.

Actual Personality:
Cal does his best to try and see the good in people, to keep a positive attitude, and strive towards his goals. While not exactly secretive he doesn’t normally talk about his personal life or heavy stuff unless prompted, he prefers to keep things light especially at work where there’s enough going on. In an emergency situation, he stays calm and collected, in fact the more stressed he is or the crazier the situation the calmer he seems to get. He’s generally even tempered, very few things set him off and he’s quick to try and diffuse conflict. He doesn’t like to upset people, and is quick to apologize when he has messed up. While he’s responsible at work he’s very much not when it comes to his personal life; he’s terrible at managing money, too proud to ask for help when he needs it, and trust people too easily. Pride is big for him, as is perfection at his craft. Calvin always exudes confidence although sometimes it’s just acting until he believes it himself, he can’t do his job properly if he’s doubting himself.

History:
Cal's father is an incredibly wealthy and successful plastic surgeon while his mother was an divorce attorney. He was always a bright kid but his parents always expected more from him, they always wanted him to do just a bit better than whatever he did. He was sent to the best schools, had excellent tutors, and had just about anything he could want growing up. Eventually, after years of never doing good enough to earn his parent’s approval he stopped trying so hard, slacked off more and had more fun. If he was never going to well enough for them then he might as well not try so hard and enjoy himself more.

Calvin knew about his father’s affairs well before his mother ever did, it’s one thing to know but an entirely different experience to walk in on it at the age of eleven. His father bought him a puppy in exchange for silence but didn’t work very hard to hide the fact that the affairs continued. He tried telling himself keeping his father’s secret was being a good son but the guilt ate at him. The happy family charade continued for another three years until his mother found out. His parents got divorced, he eventually told his mom that he’d know about the affairs which put a huge strain on their relationship. He went back and forth between parents with expectations he could never met and who only took interest in him to make the other one jealous or for bragging rights with friends.

Calvin never really liked his father but after shadowing him at work for a day as part of a school assignment he realized he hated him. His father was shallow, his job and life were solely about appearances and money with nothing of substance underneath, and he cared nothing for his patients. Although that day he realized he wanted to be a doctor he knew he didn’t want to be like his father, he wanted to help save lives, to make a positive impact on the world. After that he worked hard at school but now for himself and not his parent’s approval. He took as many advanced classes as he could, did volunteer work at a hospital, and focused on getting into a good college. Although many try to say he got into Stanford because of his father, a Stanford grad himself, but he had been excepted to plenty of other great schools across the country.

He worked hard, studied hard, and partied hard. He joined a frat, had a lot of great experiences, fell in love, got dumped, broke a few hearts of his own; the whole college experience. He just started med school when his mom died in a car accident, they had never really repaired their relationship and were barely talking when she died. It was hard, he drank a little more often, slept a little longer, and laughed a little less but eventually he moved passed it, focused on school more. He graduated, got his residency at Caduceus Memorial Hospital and feels like he’s on his way to achieving his dreams. He’s got no time for people who want claim he is where he is because of his father. He hasn’t asked his father for a thing other than tuition money since he was eighteen, he tries to dip into his trust fund and the money his mother left him as little as possible. Truthfully being self-reliant has been a challenge for him, finding an apartment with what the residency pays and living off that was much harder than he thought or realized.

ER Doctor/Doctors without Borders/Help People/Travel and see the world/Be Happy

Cal has always been perceived of as a overly spoiled rich kid whose never worked for anything, got into Stanford because of his father's money, and got his residency due to his father's pull as well.

First year surgical resident | Very interested in Ortho

ϟ Easygoing
ϟ Hardworking
ϟ Passionate

ϟ Uninhibited
ϟ Short-Tempered
ϟ Blunt

Evaluation Observations
To everyone around her, Madelyn is a brilliant, promising young surgeon who isn't afraid to take risks. She's very dedicated and passionate about her work, spending the majority of her time in the hospital helping patients. To most of the other residents, she's actually very likable; she cracks jokes whenever she can and is always there to lend a helping hand whenever needed. When it comes time for surgery, however, she is a completely different person; when given the opportunity to scrub in on a surgery, she does not screw around when it comes to the patient. Her determination and passion towards surgery can easily be seen when she's doing what she does best.

Actual Personality
Despite being an open book, there are a few things about Madelyn that not too many of her coworkers know. Not only is she a risk taker in the operating room, but also in the outside world. In her short, 24 years of life, she's gone rock climbing, skydiving, bungee jumping, and more. She's always been a bit of a thrill seeker. Many of her coworkers also know that she has a bit of a temper, but in comparison to what she lets slip in the hospital, they haven't seen anything yet. Madelyn's closest friends know all about her heated arguments in bars and near brawls with stupid men and shady women. She never has been and never will be one to hold her tongue. Despite all of her shortcomings, however, Madelyn is a very dependable and fun-loving person who would go to hell and back for the people she holds dear. Anyone who pays attention can see that.

Madelyn dreams of securing a position as the best attending Orthopedic surgeon in the hospital. She also has distant plans to purchase an Audi and a beautiful condo for she and her German Shepherd... as soon as those student loans are paid off.

Asim Stanley Bitar

November 16th, 32 years old
Portland, Oregon

Male / Hetero

Army Combat life saver, Arabic, Asatru, Traumatic Brain Injury, Night Terrors.
Slave Driver > Hard Ass > Veteran > Caretaker > Heathen

Paramedic Operations Manager for ground and air ambulances. Part time Physical Therapist.

Standing 6’5 and being a little over 220 lbs. with broad shoulders and an athletic body, Asim can be a bit intimidating. Normally keeping his thick black hair shaven leaving only his short beard. He has a darker skin tone matching his Arabic ethnicity but speaks without an accent in a rather deep tone of voice. He has many small and large tattoos across his back, chest and arms mostly related to his time served in the army. Scars also litter his fore arms, mostly small scratches and cuts. However, he does have a rather large burn scar across his right side that climbs toward his right pectoral.

Normally one can find him wearing nice dark business suits with a comfortable white shirt and red tie. Occasionally slipping on scrubs or workout clothes when working with the physical therapy department. Outside of work he wears whatever is comfortable, mostly slacks or shorts with a loose fitting t-shirt or tank top.

Evaluation Observations:
First impression is that this man is stern and intimidating. Through size, position, and the way he carries himself up and down the halls. That combined with the fact that he has what some have said is a resting bitch face or a near permanent scowl. That’s until you get him to smile with an off color or morbid joke. Normally keeping to himself and helping out when his management job is slow or his assistant manager has everything under control. Even with his stature he still tries to be open and welcoming, Asim just isn’t all that great at it. It doesn’t help that he’s often seen telling other people to get back to work when they are slacking.

Actual Personality:
Aside from his intimidating military honed first impressions he’s actually quite caring towards others. Sure he pushes his people to nearly no end, but he just wants to see them grow. One can often find him comforting or talking to overwhelmed nurses or doctors trying to help them through a breakdown. He knows that this work is stressful even if he makes dealing with all the stress easy. Asim will always try to be the support structure for his fellow employees. Like a good officer, he cares about his people.

As for his friends? Well, he doesn’t have too many friends outside of work. No significant other or relatives in the area either. Outside of work, unless invited somewhere, he spends his time exercising, working in his yard, or helping his older neighbors with theirs. Occasionally when his night terrors get the best of him or his anxiety and depression start to kick in, he locks himself away to read poetry or cook.

His goals are few and simple. One would be to live out the rest of his life in peace, to only fight when protecting himself or a third party. Another goal is to simply help where he can and bring a little joy into this dark world. He wouldn’t mind finding someone to call his own, the best friend he could open up too and spill his secrets. A woman that could sing to his angels and calm his demons. After all, he doesn’t want to be alone forever.

His reputation is one of diligence and hard work for both himself and the people he supervises. Even if others think he’s a dick he knows he has a job to do and the responsibilities that come with it.

Maurice Colton

25 Years Old/12th November 1993

Male. Straight.

British-American Psycho
Stick-up-the-ass

First year resident in trauma surgery. Specializes in emergency surgery/trauma victims like car crashes or assault victims and the like.

Maurice has the classic ‘old money private schooled’ look. His dark hair is always immaculately styled in conservative fashion. He keeps it a manageable length, never below the collar- that was a detention in his old school. His face seems suited to a sombre look, with heavy brows and a protruding upper lip that makes an almost permanent semi-pout. Maurice’s chin is quite heavy-set also, with a noticeable cleft in the center. His eyes are bright coloured, but dull- his low lids leave little to show of the sparkling blue iris. Tireless hours working late at night have left prominent dark bags under his eyes.

His build is thin but tall, standing at 6’1. His skinniness comes from days spent working obsessively, without regard of eating and it has taken its effect on his body. His face is especially gaunt, with skin tight against his cheekbones and jaw. ‘Didn’t your mother ever feed you?’ and ‘You should really be eating more’ are common comments. He doesn’t have time for that. Food is to sustain, not to enjoy.

Clothing is something Maurice takes very seriously. The first thing people do when they see you is they judge you. And your clothes are the first thing they see. Therefore, it would never do to look ragged or unseemly. For this reason, and having never truly grown out of his private school days, he wears fitted formal wear most of the time (except when in surgery of course). Monotone coloured shirts, fitted suit pants and derby shoes which match the colour of his belt. Occasionally he wears a silk tie, but it can feel excessive in daily use and end up left in the cupboard. Always a single colour. Maurice frowns on the fools who like to ‘express their personality’ with their ties. Leave the rubber ducks and bright colours to the children.

First impressions of Maurice are rarely positive. He seems to simply brush off and ignore other people at best, and at worst, use his brash, superior manner to bully others. However, he is annoyingly good at surgery and medicine, and seems absolutely dedicated to the job. He’s the sort of person that it would be strange to see outside of scrubs in the hospital, like seeing your school principal at a swimming pool. When he isn’t working on the table, he’s working in other ways to become a better surgeon, to save more lives.. to be better. Some people wonder if Maurice simply puts up a facade or if he really is that much of a dick. To be honest, sometimes he doesn’t know himself.

All Maurice wants in life is to be the best. When you’re trying to be the best, sometimes other people can be little more than pointless distractions. Who has time for a girlfriend when people are dying on the table because he wasn’t there to operate? Who has time for idle conversation when he could be studying, improving, becoming a better surgeon? His relentlessness has driven him from a young age, encouraged by his father and by now, it’s all he really has left. As the saying goes, a leopard can’t change it’s spots; and after twenty five years of rejecting others, it seems the spots are ingrained deep. The only way you’ll really see the true side of Maurice; a depressed, almost lonely man is in his moments of weakness- tired to the bone after a marathon surgery or drugged out of his mind on one of his occasional binges. The only thing that keeps him going without burning out is the drugs. The drugs, and the dream of seeing his father’s statuesque face finally break and congratulate his son on his accomplishments.

His birth was uneventful, thrown into this world a quarter of a century ago as a slightly premature baby with an ignominiously large head and bright blue eyes in a San Francisco hospital ward. His mother disappeared early into his life and his father, an English immigrant from a prestigious family never talked about her. Maurice never asked. To question his father was to question his authority, and questioning his authority would only lead to an encounter with his thick leather belt.

In school, Maurice excelled at his work from an early age, standing out among the rest of his classmates. He always seemed to want to be the best, to be better than anyone else. Instead of playing outside and forming friendships like the rest of them, he preferred the chill air of the school library, studying for hours for every test. At home, his father was distant and only spoke to Maurice when the boy got a less-than-desirable grade or, on the rare precious occasion, to show the small boy a flash of pride at an excellent result. This only encouraged Maurice to turn away from his classmates to pursuit grades even more.

When he came to high school age, his father wanted him to return to his roots. This led to him travelling back to England to be schooled at Eton. Most teenagers, freed from the oppressive presence of their parent/s would go wild, but not Maurice. To the chagrin of his classmates he stayed intently focused on his studies, eventually graduating with excellent grades. Those who tried to get close to him would be thrown off by his arrogant attitude, formed by his lack of social interaction. It was in his final years of high school that he started turning to cigarettes, alcohol and drugs as a crutch to support him through tortuous exam seasons and long nights studying. He has never managed to really kick this habit, and still enjoys a chemical hit far too often.

He had grown an interest in medicine through his biology classes, but to be honest, the pay and prestige as a surgeon was what really attracted him. With his pick of colleges, he ended up with a full ride through Stanford for a degree in medicine. From the advice of a professor who had been impressed by Maurice’s determination, he applied for a first year residency in Caduceus Memorial and was eagerly accepted.

‘I don’t have dreams. I have goals. Dreams and hopes will always lose out against someone else’s hard work and determination.’

• Become head trauma surgeon at the hospital
• Make his father proud
• Become financially successful

Maurice hasn’t really been at the hospital long enough to develop a proper reputation, but early impressions of the staff have found him cold and arrogant, their greetings rebuffed. However, his talent and dedication is already evident.

Manliest dude on the planet, or at least in the medical facility
Very straight

Chad, but like… a light side Chad. The type of Chad that will help you with your form at the gym, or make suggestions for an exercise plan.

The kind of Chad that will pat you on the back and keep you on the right track. The type of Chad who will wingman for you in even the most unlikely of situations. The type of Chad who wants everyone around himself to better themselves like he’s done.

The good Chad.

Anesthesiologist resident

He’s tall, muscular, has stunning blue eyes and a charming smile. It’s a point of contention why he’s a doctor and not a model. He’s about 6’2”, and weighs about 230 of mostly muscle. As he works at a medical facility, there’s a uniform that he typically has to wear, but if he didnt’ have to wear the uniform, he’d probably dress himself in snazzy streetwear, and stuff that he used to totally steal from r/malefashionadvice. Years of practice have lead to him being able to put together a good looking outfit that plays to his already apparent pros. Still a doctor though. And what would a doctor be without the scrubs?

He goes to a barber every couple of weeks to keep his haircut and beard groomed just right. He takes pride in his appearance, why shouldn’t he? He worked hard to look this good. Might as well take advantage of it before some sickening combination of age and stress tear him apart at the seams.

Evaluation Observations:
People who know Cole only at face value would describe him as hardworking, dedicated, and maybe even ambitious. This isn’t completely wrong! It’s impossible for someone to make it as far as he has in his chosen career path without those three traits. He’s undeniably prideful, and incredibly proud of himself, having worked hard to get to where he is in his life.

A constant smile is on his face, and he has a warm personality. He’s happy to work with anyone, and is a conversationalist. He enjoys speaking to patients for the most part, and is to be the one who has to deliver the bad news. Hardly ever sarcastic with them, comfortable delivering news about their condition, and mindful of his verbiage and able to pick up on minute social cues when speaking to them, Cole’s favorite part of this job is interacting with patients.

Actual Personality:
It’s much the same, as far as people can tell. Cole presents himself at face value, and the only thing that really changes upon getting to know him is he’ll crack a few more jokes. Jokes are tough sometimes, simply because you have to know your crowd to make them carry any weight. He’s still the warm, inviting, smiling young man that the people who taught him and the people he went to school with came to love.

He interacts slightly different with coworkers and people out of the office as opposed to patients. Considering his peers to be less off limits than the patients, he’ll flirt rather openly with almost anyone when it comes to a coworker or someone he meets on a night out on the town — though he hasn’t had one of those in some time now. He consider himself a very social person, and is the type to figure out everyone’s birthdays and make sure that they have an enjoyable one, even if he has to pay for all of it.

He’s very extraverted, and loves to interact with other people. He’s never closed off, and will talk about his past, present, or future with anyone interested enough to ask. He has nothing to hide, and loves to chat with others about their lives! Still, some of the people around him are private people, and he respects that.

Overall, he’s charismatic, and with a tough past behind him and a bright future ahead of him, Cole has ever reason to be happy.

History:
Son of a plumber.

Or at least, that’s what he’s been told. He’s not sure what his dad did for a living. Cole grew up in northern Oregon, with a father he never met, who was in jail for drug related crimes before he was even born, and a mother who did her best but struggled to provide. Luckily an only child, Cole was able to lessen the load on her when he turned fourteen by getting a job as a dishwasher, something he did until he graduated high school. Cole had dedicated himself wholly to becoming something his mom could be proud of. It was her suggestion that he become a doctor. “The world will always need doctors,” she’d told him. He took the advice to heart, and looked into the field.

He found the idea of helping people more and more appealing as he dug into it. At first, it seemed like an impossible goal. He couldn’t afford it, and he didn’t want to be trapped in debt for the rest of the life. Over time, though, it became a reasonable possibility. He could qualify for scholarships, he could get a fullride, he could get it done. Why not? Being a doctor was something he could be proud of. It was either that, or he learn a trade.

He did his premed on a full ride scholarship from John Hopkins. After graduating undergrad, he took an internship at a nearby hospital, then completed his med school back at Hopkins, finishing up mostly debt free through the power of scholarships, covering over 75% of the cost of his schooling. After getting his degree and officially, finally becoming a doctor.

Now working as a resident at Caduceus Memorial, Cole lives in a tiny apartment and stuff most of the money he’s paid in savings. He doesn’t see himself ever leaving the hospital, and doesn’t need much space; the apartment is almost a storage place for him. Nearby the hospital, he pays just over half the rent for the house his aging mother lives in. He tries to visit her as often he can, but he’s a very busy man.

He intends to sleep in the on-call room, and already has plans to make the on-site gym his domain.
