Acting as an active member of the medical team in the <address>[/Manniler Field] diamond mine, [Nix/]</address>. Though young, Dr Cole was a competent first aider and pharmacist. Though not a senior member of the team, he seemed more then qualified for his post. He was noted by his superiors for this, that and his interest in the various stages of [[Goggles Cough]]. Still, there was not a single step out of line, nor rule broken by the doctor. His medical license was clean and his paper work was always properly filled in on time; he fit into the medical team like a glove.

Unfortunately, he is believed to have been killed during the infamous [[Manniler Incident]], when the [[temple ship]] [[Leviticus]] accidentally fired on the planet; he will be greatly missed by the [[Nix]]in scientific community.

==Personal Information==
Nobody else knows the following information; so I'd request that other players in this campaign don't look at it.

===Secrets===

===Week 1===
"18 months at my current post catering for bumbling miners was starting to finally pay off, I had come across an interesting step in my research of [[Goggles Cough]]. I found a there was a link between the early stages of the illness and direct sunlight, I came across this quite by accident. But it would seem with there was an statistical link between health and vacations, It would seem though the fates had other things in mind instead of making the long awaited breakthrough.

As events would transpire the [[Terran Church|church]] saw fit to cull the brighter minds of the mine, not to mention some of the less bright. The mine was to be destroyed on accounts of the science hating church not wanting the world to accept reality once again, as bothersome as this was I and a rag tag bunch managed to survive in a odd circumstance that to be honest is fascinating. The Mine itself saved us from certain death, Is it the [[Catholic Church|Church]]'s work or a old forbidden science? I do not know the answer myself yet.

Either way It would seem we are now on the planet [[Quest]], a testing ground for those over breeding [[Vermen]]. Thankfully I still have my notes installed. My first aim is to survive the desert we are in, and avoid the rabid Vermen. My secondary aim is to return home with minimal casualties, that and keeping my cover of course. Either way it seems I will be kept occupied, the people I am travelling with are a rag tag bunch prone to injury. Even right now, I see they're trying to talk to one of the local lions."

===Week 2===
The little day trip from Nix to quest has just become more and more interesting, not to mention bloodier by the minute. One of my female companions (name here) learned the hard way that lion taming is not easy, at the cost of (name here)'s arm. Thankfully that was fixable and low behold we were saved by someone competent, his name is (name) and is quite skilled in reading ancient texts. Oddly our resident recognition (name) and our new comer have something in common, Jigsaw like pieces that seem linked to how we appeared on the hell hole known as Quest.

The stones just happen to have a radioactive property, though thankfully it is low enough to avoid harm to us. The stones also seem to be the way home, each stone contains a key word and a poem. When used properly these keywords can activate turn the chamber (such as the chamber which we should of died in on Nix) into a transportation device. We managed to escape Quest and return to Nix with a somewhat limited air supply. The Air supply was dropping, and once again we escaped death. For the forth time in one day. Oh well once again we survived via the strange device and once again we were thrown into the grasps of death itself.

The transportation took us to a place with little air, atmosphere or gravity. We would of died if not for (Dave and Dan) and their space ship, The nun and the trader then took us to a hospital made of gold. The floors, the walls even the hair combs all gold. The fools who inhabit (planet name) have no real sense of value, to them this gold is “Only gold”. ( Calvin) and myself managed to sell the story that our group were divine beings, to my surprise the story sold faster then fresh (Nixon Jacks) at a Fair.

After managing to acquiring two golden Bibles and some useful medical supplies, The team spare (Heather's character) went out searching for a rune in space. On the way back after a disastrous event with the seatbelts and space, we all got back just in time to have ( Calvin) speak our way out trouble with the law. The man who would have had us killed by a mining laser would have us questioned for heracy, we managed to get away with only a slight shot injury to (Calvin). Reforming as a group at the (University), we proceeded to the Museum of (Place), Stealing from a museum we lost (Dave's character), and tried to escape.

Ending up back at the entry point to this space hole we managed to escape the Church and return to Nix.... Maybe the next jump will be less dangerous?

Panda:

On <date>7. June 842</date>, the [[Leviticus|Grand Temple of the Law]] was in orbit around [[Nix]] when the ship's laser canon discharged due to a technical malfunction; it is believed that power arced over one of the relays and caused a maximum power burst lasting 22 [[cent]]s to strike the planet below, destroying the <address>[/Manniler Field] diamond mine as well as a significant portion of the [/Manniler Plateau] region of [Nix/]</address>.

Smith-Wheeler Syndrome

2011-05-10T12:45:45Z

Panda:

A rare disease of unknown origin. It is more common in highly polluted areas and those with a high degree of gang violence, although which is the cause and which is the effect ie debatable.

====Type 1====
"I'm gonna Rip Your Face Off!"

A degenerative neural condition which leads to loss of higher reasoning functions, establishment of a pack hunting social system (where the sufferer finds the need to be the Alpha), albinoism and adrenaline overproduction and a degeneration in both learning and reflexive actions usually ending in heart failure.
Most commonly this manifests in early cases as an tendency to overreact to stressful situations.
In most cases this is fatal although if diagnosed early the symptoms can be managed by a drug known as [[Zyphate]] and a dietary regimen. It can also be managed by strict environmental controls, however this is ludicrously expensive and requires full time monitoring.
The Life expectancy is approximately 35 years, although violenc tends to cause this to fall to around 25.

====Type 2====
"Your existence is no longer advantageous"

A person with Type 2 Smith-Wheeler Syndrome is nothing less than a monster in human form. The symptoms are above excluding the reflex degeneration and the loss of planning faculties.
The sufferer exhibits tactical ability devoid of emotional ties and a bizarre lust for human blood (note that the blood is not required for their continued function, it is a pointless obsession on any world which is not experiencing a food shortage) as well as an improved reaction rate. It is also reported, although not medically proven, that Type 2 sufferers do not need to sleep... ever.
No known Type 2 sufferer has ever died of anything other than violence.

'''The fate of Smith and Wheeler'''

After the identification of the syndrome and the subsequent development of the 'wonder drug' [[Zyphate]] both Smith and Wheeler began a large amount of illegal biological research, eventually being excommunicated in the year 888. There are rumors still circulating that Smith and Wheeler still live as one compounded aberration, it's lifespan augmented by their deprave twisting of science. Some say that the illegal drug [[Zyphate|Mandraxate]] is a bastard child of Zyphate produced in their godless and benighted chemo-forges.

Panda:

(also known as the FCC)

This is a clinic based rumoured to have started out in Still forges, make no mistake this organisation is more of a gang then a medical group. Whilst it is true that they FCC does save lives, and avoid trouble with the law (somehow). The FCC is known for acting on more motivations of greed then moral justification or any hypotiic oath.

Known to do any job for a price, they have saved many a criminal from their possibly deserved death bed. They have also been known to prey on the poor members of society who for what ever reason cannot pay or even go to a public medical facility, they are infamous for their back ally abortions too.

The FCC are known in the body modification circuits, as well as those with a fetish or need for cybernetics as a cheap alternative to the offical providers. There work is not always to the official standard nor is their Tech, but what can you expect for a cheaper price for a quality service?

On the theme of payments, the FCC 'brand' a patient on the surgery with a well hidden mark. The FCC never mention the fact that they will seldom ask for payment at the time, they bide their time before approaching each former patient. Demanding the payment in various ways, usually in stupid amounts of money or in body organs (your own or someone else's). This being said they have demanded odder things in the past. It is unknown how they always seem to find their past patients, some would debate its the tattoo they give them, some would state that the the tattoo is just an effect.

This is the name for two products:-

Devil's Preserve

2011-05-10T12:02:04Z

Panda:

Originally hailing from [[New Castile]], this jam was originally created for [[Pope Johston]], and his grand tour of their world. New Castile according to the historic records at the time provided the Pope with a saint's welcome, making his visit into a holy festival to the likes rarley seen.

At this point the pope was presented with a jar of [['Johnston Gold']], a fruit preserve made for the pope known for liking his Sunday Jams. On sampling this gift and peace offering, the Pope spat it out on taste. The Jam had been laced with enough chilli that a [[Castilian]] would call 'spicy', and the Pope at the time would call 'too hot'. From that day forth it has been known as “The [[devils preserve]]”, A name given by said pope as he was later quoted to say “No man can eat that preserve, the people here must be devils”.

This particular incident has effected the two cultures in different way, but the preserve it self is still sold to this day and is a favourite along chili heads of [[Megelan]]. On [[New Castian]] though it is seen as a normal condiment with its original name.
