Sawbones

Sawbones are the medics of the Flanks, they operate using traditional medicine and more crude ways of medical attention.
== Overview ==
Sawbones are an important rank within the Flanks, and are often very respected and trusted as they preserve and save lives. With the Flanks more accepting nature, any sex is welcome to train as a Sawbones, as any extra pair of hands is useful. Sawbones often have to deal with crude tools or techniques, as they do not have the resources that others might. The Flanks are slowly obtaining better tools through various raids, but for the meantime Sawbones use what they can. They primarily focus on using herbs and traditional remedies, which limits their scope of talent. 
It is unfortunate, but being a Sawbones is often a difficult job, and there often isn’t a high success rate for more difficult cases. They do their best with what they have, but more often than not Sawbones are providing palliative care to many patients. All resources collected are of utmost importance, and spread as far as they can go. 
Training to become a Sawbones is rather intense, and can span many years. They typically work in a team of two, one being the mentor and the other the apprentice. Apprentices train for upwards of 3+ years if need be, and then they are given their own apprentices and the cycle continues. Sawbones are also trained in rudimentary combat, as they are sometimes sent out with a group of Reavers and may need to defend themselves.
