[edit] History
A rather brief summary of Dr. Seymour's past.
[edit] Pre-PC
- Born and raised on Londinium
- Father is a high-ranking official who works closely with the Parliament
- Mother is a linguistics professor
- Studied medicine on Londinium, specialized in Neurology
- During University, she became friends with people who sympathized with the Browncoats. They showed her the other side of the Unification and its war
- Learned the true art of the profession by being forced to work in environments that required improvisation: hospitals of questionable reputation, often with cheap, bad, or broken equipment, or in medbays of ship that were undersupplied. It has been said that she once had to sedate a patient by knocking him out because there were no other means available.
- Has flewn with "independent merchants." They were arrested by the Alliance during a planetside operation, and Anise fortunately wasn't around at the time. For some weird reason, the Alliance never found out she was involved with these criminals or else didn't care to pursue her...
[edit] PC
- Hired by Crimson Shield Security to take care of their crew
- Wrote a pamphlet, seeking out to all who could assist her with her research to an (as of yet unexistant) medicine.
- Left Crimson Shield Security after a certain incident between her and Hase O'Donald, the leader
- Hired by the Guan-Yin II hospital ship
- Received Pilotting 101 Crash Course from Guan-Yin II's captain Donna McKellen

[edit] Observations
Note that these are IC views of Anise, presented in an OOC context.
- Harmless recreational drugs like Ether Herb and Drops are banned by law, while it is easy for a doctor to (accidentally or willingly) prescribe or administer a fatal combination of medical drugs legally available.
- Sometimes suddenly everyone is a doctor. But who's flying the ruttin' ship at those moments? Just do what you are good at and what you get paid for, please.
- While I despise violence, I would have much less to do if it wasn't put to use every now and then.
- If a woman says she's almost 60, it sounds older than when she says she's in her late 50's. Her real age was 59.
[edit] NPCs
During role play several names may come up that only exist off-screen, in Anise's background, or as plot device NPCs. I'll give a quick overview of my favourites.
[edit] Family
- Michael, dad
- Father. Works as advisor for several members of the Parliament.
- Cynthia, mom
- Mother. Linguistics professor at Londinium University.

- Sister. Lawyer. She and Anise are very close with each other.
[edit] Medical
- Alex Becker
- Intern at the Guan-Yin II.
- Pritha
- Nurse at the Guan-Yin II.
- Dr. George Spencer
- cosmetic surgeon who conveniently resides wherever he might be needed. Old man with grey hair. He and Anise apparently go way back, even though he's old enough to be her father.
- Dr. Lisa "Dr. Love" Lawrence
- Professor at Londinium Med Acad, author of several books on various aspects of doctor-patient relationships. Anise is a great fan of her.
- Dr. William Roberts
- Neurology professor at Londinium Med Acad. He and Anise have become close friends over the years.
- Dr. Eric Charles "Easy" Meyers
- Toxicology and virology professor at Londinium Med Acad. Anise considers him a perfect example of what she doesn't want to be, as he is rude, careless, arrogant, and selfish.
- Dr. Robert John "RJ" Daniels
- Fellow student at Londinium Med Acad and good friend of Anise. Works as neurologist at another hospital somewhere on a Border world. He and Anise have a long-standing tradition to review each other's cases, diagnoses, and articles.

- Place where Anise went to med school and graduated. She still has contacts there, in the form of friends, fellow students, and professors.

 The doctor Anise and her work |
[edit] About the player
There are a few things I like to tell about myself.
[edit] Language
English isn't my native language. So far this hasn't caused me much trouble that I know of, but I feel it is important to have it known. I may not grasp every nuance in the things you say and my sentences may feel a bit odd to you. I'm sorry for this but there's only so much I can do. Every now and then it might take me some time to look up what this-or-that word you used meant or whether a word I'm thinking of using indeed means what I want it to cover. Please bear with me.
[edit] Time
Seeing as I live in West Europe, my time zone might not be exactly compatible with yours. I have a very irregular schedule so that doesn't help either. Since I work in a restaurant I'm most busy when everybody else is having days off so Saturdays are especially hard for me, if at all possible, to come on-line. And then there's the notion of me liking to go out in the weekends as well ;-)
