Medicae Archetype

Note: The desperate version of Triage is not functioning as intended; for now, it mirrors the heroic version. The Medicae can now select Overseer with servoskulls at tier 2.

Lives are spent freely on the battlefields of the Imperium, but never wasted. A soldier who can rise again to wield their lasgun is far more valuable than one left bleeding in the mud. The Medicae ensures this grim arithmetic remains in the Imperium’s favor, tending to injuries and returning warriors to the line.

The Medicae is a new tier 1 archetype for Rogue Traders and companions. With unique active abilities, talents, and a servoskull-based pet mechanic, it introduces a dedicated battlefield support role — including the ability to revive fallen allies mid-combat.
