History

John Quill was born in YE 15.

In the streets of Funky City when your dog, cat, parrot, Dog/Cat/Parrot mutant-hybrid is ill or in need of quality veterinary care and treatment, Come visit “Quill And Sons” Veterinary Clinic. Where our top veterinarian, Abigail Quill. And her son, The young and talented John Quill strive to exceed our clients' expectations by treating their pets with respect, honesty, and compassion and treating all animals as if they were our own. Our services are provided in a clean, safe, and friendly environment and our goals are to work as a team, complementing each others' talents and retaining a positive attitude.

From the curb, Abigail's clinic looked like a clean, well run establishment dedicated to the care and treatment of many of the most common and popular of the hives pets and their well being. But after business hours close, If you find yourself injured and unable to find proper care due to authority interference you need only enter through the unmarked, unlocked door in the back, And find yourself medical recourse available to criminals, who may make up her entire off-hours clientele, due to legitimate doctors having to report gunshot wounds and other wounds inflicted by violence to the proper authorities. A Back-Alley Doctor funded by organized crime is often in high demand. Abigail often performed perform crude medical procedures for cash. And usually patched up gangsters who have been shot, and performed black market organ donations.

John Quill was raised by this veterinarian and secret back-alley physician, Abigail Quill. Who, Upon finding out her short temper and volatile attitude made her love life scarce, And in a moment of rare maternal desire, adopted, or as she so often would remark, “Liberated” john at an age too young for him to remember.

John was raised into the two prospects of Abigail's clinic, The proper and polite treatments of animals, And the crude and malpractice treatment or street scum and gangsters. John quickly became a “Doctor” with medical credentials that where… less than ideal. One or more patients in the past may have died on his operating table due to improper procedures, mistakes, or lack of proper sanitation. Chances are they still do. Even so, he and Abigail got a lot of business, simply because they never asked any questions. They did, however, expect you to do the same.

Yet even with the income of the two businesses, Times where tough for John and Abigail. Abigail was only allowed to perform her side business under the protection and supervision of certain illicit groups, And often had to pay for protection and many of the back alley drugs and supplies she needed to operate to them for years. This didn't stop her love and care for John, one of the few people she truly valued and cared for in her life, And often times led her to spoil and pamper John into the same hedonist lifestyle as her, giving her son the impression that they where always a lot more well off then she let on, Often times giving John delusions of grandeur. As he grew older however, John learned the truth, and to this day takes on side jobs and work to support his and his mothers hedonist lifestyles.

Social Connections

John Quill is connected to:

  • Abigail Quill (Mother)

Skills Learned

Communications (Trade/Yamataigo)

John Is fluent in Trade. And basic Yamataigo, just enough to throw into his speech to sound more refined at times, and eavesdrop on conversations. Speaking the wrong word to a wounded thug on the table or his muscle headed friends can cost you your life. John quickly learned when not to use certain words or talk at all. He gets most things using persuasion and soft spoken words, though that doesn't always work. John writes very fast and neatly and has mastered the art of forging a doctors stereotypical and unlegeable signature.

Fighting

John is no stranger to violence. For years people have tried to extort or manipulate John, his mother, and their trade, forcing him, after several experiences left him bruised and bloody, to learn to defend himself. John had learnt to advance his fighting skills to survive on the streets from some of his patients; often times his mother would offer discounts or waving past debts for lessons from thieves and rouges alike, for lessons with crude small arms like pistols, and blades. John, In particular took quite fast to blade work, A knife is no different from a scalpel in his hands.

Medical

John knows how to diagnose and treat most injuries and conditions, apply first aid and emergency care (CPR, etc), and perform general surgery if given the proper tools and facilities, but often has to settle for operating in a dimly lit, grungy, back-alley office, complete with nightmarish surgical tools which may or may not have been recently cleaned with whisky.

Entertainment:

John has spent years of practice crafting and living the lie that he and his mother are somehow wealthy and well respected individuals. He's had considerable time and countless experiences to spin stories and craft lies and half truths alike. Through a soft spoken and well versed manner of speech, John is very adept at convincing others of any variety of things.
