Carmino Ferro

Spitalian

Chapters

When Carmino came to Vivaco 10 years ago, he found the sickbay in a shambles. The Famulancers were malnourished, the neoprene hung from the shoulders, and the way they patched up the wounded was unacceptable and showed how poorly they were trained. He knew that the Spital did not care much for this outpost as it was focused mainly on the campaigns in Pollen. The status was unbearable and a waste of potential. Carmino took the lead, cut through the ties of the management of the outpost to the locals, organized resources and started reshaping Vivaco according to his ideas. He also started teaching the Famulancers. Some he turned into Field Medics and sent them to the Adriatic Basin, others had to help him in Vivaco. Carmino was a dynamic man, his discipline, willpower and inquiring mind inspired his subordinates. The sickbay soon became more important, Carmino gained renown far beyond the Cult and was respected for his relentless energy. He was even offered the vacant position of Registrar for northern Purgare, but he rejected. He wanted to stay at the surgical table and heal wounds that other Surgeons would have deemed beyond hope: mending torn organs, removing jammed splinters of bone from open fractures, replacing shattered joints by prostheses. His specialty was head surgery. Then he was appointed personal doctor of Altair the Baptist.
