Apprentice Medicine / Caretaker — second generation, age 21
Quiet, keenly observant, and empathetic, Corin carries the careful tension of someone who knows the difference between routine illness and a systemic breakdown. He is more comfortable with plants than people.
He grew up caring for the ill and wounded among the flats, learning herbal remedies and poultices from both the farmhands and the older generation. His knowledge is often dismissed as "field superstition."
He has been treating an unusual series of skin lesions that appear only on the planks near the old sewer intake, suggesting a biological contamination source.
