Janus jen Buren

he/him

A Garlean field medic. He is ornery, blunt, and stubborn. Though he does care a lot for other people and especially those under his care, over the years dealing with patching ungrateful soldiers back together has jaded him and his care is covered under a very thick later of attitude. He's exhausted, feels like he's 80 years old and will joke that he's ancient whenever anybody asks for his age.

He's been a medic most of his life, signing up for training at 16 and being deployed in his early 20's - he is currently 33. He was deployed to Doma with the XIIth and quickly learned the ropes, showing enough promise to be promoted to a lux. After getting in an accident and losing his arm + a majority of his vision to malfunctioning magitek, he was forced to hand his title over to someone else. Demoted to a jen again out of spite by his superiors for refusing to give up his position for so long even after his accident. He can still see enough to perform most basic medicine, due to the sight boost gifted to him by his third eye, but if it's covered he can barely see and needs a white cane. 

He was recalled back to Garlemald shortly after his demotion, where he worked until it fell in Endwalker. EW and beyond he spends his time traveling between various refugee camps offering aid. 

Other notes;
-Chain smoker, he has a very bad smoker's growl. I don't know how to describe it except Waffle House waitress.
-He owns 7 cats (little ref of them in gallery)
-He does not always wear his prosthetic, usually only when he needs it.
   

Drawing notes;
REF SHEET IS UP TO DATE DESIGN, the bust can be used to get a closer shot of his face but I changed his design slightly since drawing that - he no longer has a cuff over his ear and he has more grey in his hair
Pupils MUST be white, he has cataracts. Can be drawn as just white pupils if you want to stylize it similar to I do, or a white blur like real cataracts.
Third eye sits similar to Gaius's, the split skin around his eye can be pink like tear ducts or the same color as the rest of his skin. I just draw it as black due to stylization.
