**Emily Dyer**, formerly known as **Lydia Jones**, is the **Doctor**, one of **33** Survivors  currently featured in *Identity V.*

The Doctor is a Survivor that boosts her team's survival time as well as her own. She has two unique External Traits; Med Master  allows her to begin the match with a Syringe , which will never deplete upon using it, and Med Elite  which increases healing speed on herself and teammates significantly. It also provides a small boost to all Survivor's healing speed. Because of this, she is used mainly as a support character to help teammates. Her Vaulting Speed and Pallet Throwing Speed are slower than that of the average Survivor, making her a less than ideal kiter. However, with enough skill, she can heal herself while kiting bit by bit.

## Background

*Ambitious and brilliant, she possesses a look of sincerity, but much more lies behind her eyes. Extraordinary measures are required to survive in this insane world.*

*Tired of constantly moving from place to place, Emily hopes to find a place she can call "home" and finally find the sense of security and stability that has eluded her all her life.*

*Before that, she must resolve the "troubles" of her past.*

Lydia Jones opens "The Lydia Jones Clinic", but it loses money. In an effort to raise money; she begins to provide private medical services for female patients. This was successful for the clinic and it began to earn money. But one day, Martha Remington, Lisa's mother, was found dead on the operating table. The doctor had left her there after performing an illegal surgery that had resulted in her death.

Lydia Jones changes her name to Emily Dyer.

At the manor, Emily Dyer meets Emma Woods, Freddy Riley, and Kreacher Pierson. She dislikes Mr. Pierson, and hopes that Emma stays away from him. She recalls treating Emma in the asylum years prior, whose name had been Lisa Beck at the time. Emma adores Emily, as shown by the quote from the game’s map "White Sand Street Asylum": "Lydia will stand by Lisa forever and ever." Emily in turn wants to help her worsening mental condition, which she feels guilt over due to the previous treatment. Mr. Riley discovers Emily's true identity as Lydia Jones and seeks revenge on her for the death of Martha Remington. Ultimately she is eliminated by Leo Beck, the game's hunter.

## External Traits

**Exclusive**
The Doctor can heal fatal wounds quickly. Whenever the syringe is used to heal herself, her Fear is reduced by 25% and the time required for self-healing is reduced by half.

### Full Conclusion

Emily Dyer is not her real name, but rather Lydia Jones. Lydia lived a rather unstable life, always moving around relocating, and she desired nothing more than a stable and secure life for herself and for others. This desire is what got her interested in becoming a doctor; so she could provide a sense of security and comfort to her patients. Lydia adopts her own personal philosophies towards the profession: always practice on yourself so that you never harm a patient, the well being of the patient is always a doctor's sole purpose, never give or provide guidance to harmful drugs (even with request from the patient).

Lydia went on to open the Lydia Jones Clinic with the goal of helping as many people as she could. She also volunteered to help at the White Sand Street Asylum. As the clinic was run privately, it failed to turn any profit. Lydia felt her stability slipping, so in an impulsive effort to raise more money, Dr. Jones decided to betray her morals and put out an advertisement saying that the clinic provides private medical services for female patients. There are two confirmed accounts of these services: an illegal abortion that Lydia performed on Martha Remington where both the mother and the baby were killed and electroshock therapy done on Lisa Beck (Emma Woods).

In three months, the clinic has raised enough money to continue functioning as it was supposed to. However, after the accidental murder of Martha Remington, Lydia had no choice but to flee once more. Before leaving, Lydia did her best to cover up her tracks by disposing of the body before changing her name to Emily Dyer and going into hiding. Later, hungry dogs tear apart the garbage bags that contained the dismembered parts of Martha's body. An official report goes out about the death of Martha Remington, and Lydia Jones becomes a wanted criminal for murder.

## Birthday Letter

A Letter for Lorraine, the Nun

Dear Lorraine,

I made a grave mistake.

This means I won't be able to return to the White Sand Street Asylum and resume my voluntary work for a very long time.

I'm writing to you not to defend my awful behavior but to report to you certain truths I uncovered at work before I leave.

There are horrible mistakes in the White Sand Street Asylum medical records.

Through the treatment and evaluation of the patient, Lisa Beck, I realized that those children - the children from the orphanage, may not have gentle temperaments. I mean, yes, they're seldom happy, and they seem suspicious of stubborn. Yet to my knowledge, these children aren't that much different from normal children in terms of mentality and behavior. These orphans might have experienced something terrible, or might just have certain behavioral deviation, but I believe they deserve a second chance.

I therefore hope that you would evaluate the patients in the asylum once more. For your own safety and certain necessary privacy concerns, I urge you seek help from a third party professional.

I know that my suggestion may seem somewhat ridiculous, and perhaps you'll come across certain rumors about me later on, but I've adhered to my oath throughout my treatment of the children.

For the benefit of the patients, for those poor children, please commence the evaluation as soon as possible.

Yours truly,

Lydia Jones

## Tips

* Save teammates and body block after rescue from rocket chair (if you're healthy or if Tide Turner  is active).
* Remember that Hunters equipped with Street Sweeper  can see your position while self-healing within a certain distance to them, so be careful and, if possible, try to heal near a pallet or a safe window.
* Using the Doctor in duo hunters mode is very helpful as all survivors receive a 5% healing speed bonus due to the Doctor's External Trait, Med Elite . Additionally, the doctor can constantly heal herself while kiting after getting hit and also carry another item for defence, such as a Flare Gun  or Perfume .
* Her syringe can now heal 0.25 damage after the update of 23rd July. Players can self heal while kiting. If successful, this will require the Hunter to hit the Doctor thrice (initially, after self heal and kite so that the Doctor reaches 0.75 damage, and a final hit to incapacitate the Doctor), wasting a lot of time.

### Recommended Talents

* Spectator  is a decent Talent for Doctor. However, in higher ranks, it is better to use other high impact perks in late game or helping you in some tricky scenarios.
* To boost further the healing speed you can use also talents like Doctor  and Shelter . However, keep in mind that you can't heal faster than a certain speed (when you reached the maximum healing speed, "Max Efficiency" appears on the bar label).
* It's much more recommended to to use a Persona that contains either Broken Windows  or Tide Turner  along with Borrowed Time  (of course).

## Trivia

* Her birthday is 17th of March.
* She is rumored to be inspired by Amelia Dyer, a serial killer doctor from the 1900’s.
* She loves books.
* She's interested and loves herbs.
* She is good at administering healing.
* She hates coyotes.
* Her secret achievement, "War Angel" can be obtained in a match by healing either herself or her fellow teammates four times when her heartbeat is very visible. It is a really hard achievement to get, but as her healing is strong, it can be obtained.
