Personality: Emilia Farceneaux is a woman of her word, and her word is the law of Arcadia. She is a member of the Arcadian Admininstration. The position means a lot to Emilia, as she feels she can best help Arcadians from the top position. She has always been criticized for being lenient on punishments, especially for minor crimes, but she is one of the most outspoken proponents of rehabilitation instead of imprisonment. This was true even when she was a member of the Arcadian Defense Legion. Her units always had an average crime rate before she took command, and she left them with the lowest in the entire ADL.

Emilia hates seeing people in pain, and she'll do whatever is in her power to stop the pain. She has about twenty scars across her body from using her power to ease a young child's pain, but she will not do this to herself for an adult. She rarely uses her power on anyone due to its major drawback. She can restore lost limbs if the wound is fresh enough—for a cost. Emilia despises Zakatians, despite her want to help people. They are the only ones she'll hesitate before (always) giving in to helping them.

Character Background: Emilia was born to a doctor and an ADL Sergeant. Sgt. Jean Farceneaux and his wife Dr. Olivia Rembaud had been married for five years before Emilia was born. Her parents were great to her. So great, in, fact, that Emilia had no idea which one to idealize more. She wanted to follow in her mother's footsteps because she helped people who were sick. On the other hand, she wanted to follow her father's footsteps because he helped Arcadia as a whole. Emilia ended up crying for a whole day before she could finally speak. Her parents were worried, and she finally said "I don't know if I wanna be a soldier or a doctor!" Her father knelt down and patted her on the shoulder. "There are doctors in the ADL too, Emi." And Emilia stopped crying instantly. She had wide amazement in her eyes, as if the thought never occured to her. And so, Emilia sat upon her path of being an ADL Medic.

Emilia failed boot camp once, but made it through a second time after learning her Arcana. She learned what it could do by accident. She could tell it was a healing-type (something rare, even in Arcadia), but she couldn't work it. When a friend had a nasty cut on their arm, Emilia tried to fix it. Nothing happened. She then had the bright idea to try to write the same script on her arm... and the cut transferred. Emilia was amazed enough that she didn't realize she was bleeding. Her talents helped her through boot camp, and she was placed in the Order of the Red Lancet, one of the ADL's premier medical units.

Thanks to Arcadia being a peaceful country, Emilia did not go to the 'battlefield' often. The only time she was ever in the 'frontlines' was when a large band of bandits was holding an entire town hostage. They had Zakatian field guns, allowing them to outrange most sorcerers. And to heal those mangled by the artillery, the Order of the Red Lancet was called in. Emilia used her magic sparingly. She used it twice on men who had lost a leg, both of which on men who had only a few minutes of life left. The men got 'a' leg, but not their leg. They were able to continue to fight, and each thanked Emilia immensely. It wasn't until Emilia saved the life of the colonel in charge of the siege that she got recognized for her talent. After the siege ended (with a major victory for the ADL), Emilia was given command of the Order of the Red Lancet.

Emilia transformed the Order of the Red Lancet into a first-response brigade. They would be the first doctors to arrive. She wanted their skills to be 'quick, clean, and effecient and keeping someone alive long enough for a more patient medical team to arrive.' Emilia developed two new types of stitching in her command of the Order of the Red Lancet, and she recieved four commendations for disaster relief efforts. When she was approached for a promotion to general, she asked if she would still be in command of the Order of the Red Lancet. She was told she would not, and she retired. Only to enter the world of politics.

The sponsor of the Order of the Red Lancet, one Reginald Tathington, had recently retired from being a member of the Arcadian Administration. Fearing that she wouldn't have as much control over the Order of the Red Lancet, Emilia threw her lot in for his vacant position. Although there was some contest, Emilia was allowed to take the oath. She had the ADL's support and a very clean track record. The AA needed someone with a 'military mind,' as well as a 'doctor's mind.' And so Emilia has been serving the AA ever since. She is also the only member of the AA to volunteer at Aria General Hospital.

Magic

Type: Scholar
Description: Emilia's magic is simple in concept. She puts a word (usually with a scalpel) around a wound, then puts the same word on someone else's body in a similar location. The wound is then swapped between the two. She can not restore a broken bone like this, nor can she re-attach a limb that has healed over itself. Emilia's magic is best described as 'if it's bleeding, I can help.' She can swap someone's limb out for another person's, have a nasty gash transferred, or even stop internal bleeding by swapping out part of that person's organs. Unfortunately, it's a slow process to write the words needed. It takes about a minute to finish the word on one person, so it's practically impossible to be used in combat.

Combat

Equipment: Medical bag, pepperbox pistol.
Skills: Emilia is perhaps one of the best doctors in Arcadia. She is not the best healer, but the best doctor. Her skills were sought after in Haven, but she declined the offers thrown at her. She is the current record holder on how fast she can stitch someone up. It won't be pretty, and it will leave a scar, but it will also be enough to keep them closed if they choose to go to a true hospital. Emilia's skills lie mainly in use what is around her as medical equipment.
