Homeland: Kang Empire

"Stop screaming, weakling! I'm almost through the bone!"

The crimson blood of your people boils with a passion for conflict, and often that blood is spilled in the chaos of combat, leaving mighty warriors weak, unable to raise their weapons in Zoriah's name. When you were but a scrug you quickly learned that there is no place for weakness in the Crimson Horde. To your shame you were never quite as strong as your siblings, but at least you were not so weak as to be consigned to the Trackers. Instead, you were trained as a chirurgeon, learning to tend the wounded in a ruthless, practical manner, sending them back out to battle as swiftly as possible. Broken bones are set with iron straps screwed into flesh and bone, lacerations crudely cleansed with arrack and stitched up with strider gut, damaged limbs sawn off and amputated, replaced with crude iron prosthetics. If a patient dies, it was due to their weakness, not any incompetence on your part; there is no place for weakness in the Crimson Horde. Restoring injured warriors earns you khir, and sometimes you battle across the fields of conflict to retrieve or aid the fallen.

Treatment by a Kang Chirurgeon
Chirurgeon treatment is brutal and crude to say the least, and scarring is extremely common. In fact, many Kang proudly bear such scars as indicators of courage. Their treatment techniques also heal fewer HP than other healing techniques.
