Surgeon

Constantly hunted by Pharasma and her agents, the Surgeon is a powerful Death gone rogue, who now focuses her energy on healing mortals and their souls. She is depicted as a young female with two faces, often living and undead, with a syringe full of a dark, crimson liquid.
Despite her animosity with the Lady of Graves, followers and allies of the Surgeon are not condemned, and it seems their conflict is strictly personal. This has made her a popular Saint among healers and priests, particularly those who care for their patients with science instead of the divine.
She is said to make regular visits to the Matriarch's celestial orphanage, an act that is copied by her followers on the Material Plane. This has earned her favor with the Shield of Light, the Sunmaiden, and the Roaring Justice, who often go out of their way to shield the Surgeon's followers from harm.

Blessing of the Surgeon

Range: Single Source, Single Target
Action: Special (See Text)
Duration: Instantaneous
When invoking the Blessing of the Surgeon, an ethereal needle and thread appears in the caster's hand, and the air takes on the faint smell of chemicals. Using the needle and thread, the caster may heal a single creature from their current state to full health - which includes damage to their mind, body, and soul.
The length of the surgery depends on the extent of the injury, and thus it is wise to invoke this ability in safe place far away from combat. This ability can even be used to repair the Tethers of the dead, assuming the caster first goes and retrieves the creature's soul from the beyond.
After using this Blessing, an agent of Pharasma almost always arrives, to both judge any misdoings of the caster, and to continue their hunt for the elusive Surgeon...
