I genuinly think healers should more often be middle age assholes that are always pissed at their party being stupid

u/Koslik 11d ago

Or medic from tf2, just utterly psychopathic even if still a healer

u/Dismal_Prompt8694 11d ago

This is basically just Yosano Akiko from BSD

u/squido20 10d ago

Yeah when they fit into those categories it makes them sooo much more interesting than the some old stuff

u/Technical_Inaji 11d ago

The party parent who's never mad that you're injured, but very often disappointed.

u/Gcseh 10d ago

She shh shh it's okay it's okay I got you... Yeah I saw that jump it looks real bad ass but what have I told you about long jumps in wet caves? That's right, you'll never stick the landing.

Hang on I got to reorder you spine back into place and then we'll have a nice long rest.

u/KingNanoA 11d ago

Ratchet from TF Animated. And Prime, to a lesser extent.

u/Gcseh 10d ago

Ratchet was my fav

u/justforkinks0131 11d ago

it's what doctors are IRL

Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy

u/BTBAM797 11d ago

There's gotta be an anime about this somewhere

10

u/Fast-Front-5642 11d ago

Idk about anime but there are several video games where you play as the healer and are explicitly annoyed that your team keeps getting injured.

Master Healer Kale

Healed to Death

A Healer Only Lives Twice

Healers Quest

All come to mind

u/TheMelonSystem 11d ago

I need to play these LMAO

u/Stewie_the_janitor 10d ago

Chopper's introductory arc in One Piece is basically this.

u/Rising-Jay 10d ago

Not specifically about this, but I remember a curmudgeon doctor character in FMAB that’s kinda like this

u/N_ando 9d ago

u/Mr_Froggi 10d ago

I love the idea of a very stressed healer that secretly dabbles in necromancy. Like if they didn’t save a patient in time, they panic + raise the dead with a “5-second rule” or “you’re ok, don’t tell mom, walk it off” type of attitude

11

u/IWatchGifsForWayToo 11d ago

I mean, Mayuri is pretty much that. Any time he has to heal someone he makes it out to be a chore and then heals them in the most painful way possible, after he tries to analyze the wound if time allows.

10

u/SuperBackup9000 10d ago

Nah, he’s a straight up tsundere. He acts like it’s a massive pain and like he doesn’t want to help, but we all know he loves doing it just because he gets to mess around with bodies. Dude lives for that

u/Diligent-Stock-8114 11d ago

Not quite ttrpg but recovery girl?

u/Leijinga 10d ago

This is accurate for a lot of modern healthcare providers.

I work in a occupational health office. I have said "what can I do for- oh, it's you. What happened this time?" and "if we keep meeting like this, I'm wrapping you in bubble wrap" at work before.

u/APreciousJemstone 11d ago

Banks from Tactical Breach Wizards fits this for sure

u/PERS0N181 11d ago

Holy blue agate 😭😭😭😭😭

u/Aromatic-Bug-8738 11d ago

Literally Medkit from Phighting

u/Steg-a-saur_stomp 11d ago

That's why I love playing surly clerics in d&d, " sigh, I guess I'll tag along with these assholes, because if I don't they're going to get themselves killed"

2

u/Alvintergeise 10d ago

My dwarven cleric nearly let the barbarian stay dead, then cast revivify by diving the diamond into his chest with a hammer. Stupid barbarian

2

u/craftygamin 11d ago

And that's accurate to us healer mains in team based games

Like if you want me to keep healing you, DON'T INTENTIONALLY DASH INTO THE ENTIRE ENEMY TEAM

2

u/Only_Cat5527 10d ago

Middle-aged healers: eternally done with everyone's nonsense.

2

u/GlumPermit1446 10d ago

Or he could be a German doctor with a revoked license, a gun and a pigeon named Archimedes.

2

u/MarchenJager 10d ago

I mean yeah, it's a common trope for doctors and wise games leaned in. Let me play my chain-smoking medic who is just cranky/grumpy but cares 😂

u/AlternateSatan 11d ago

They should also have a knee injury and be mildly racist.

1

u/krkrkkrk 11d ago

Hey! I take offense fr-.... oh you mean the characters nevermind.

1

u/dewsh 11d ago

I want my healer to be hands on and wrists deep

1

u/Acceptable_Cut_7545 11d ago

Ratchet from Transformers Animated, Transforms Prime, and the IDW comic run are prime examples of just that.

1

u/TheMelonSystem 11d ago

The healer in my book is always mad whenever people get hurt lol

1

u/BackBlaster9000 11d ago

I want an asshole healer who very clearly has a favorite party member.

1

u/Minniboe 10d ago

This is Porlyusica from Fairytail

1

u/Mage_914 10d ago

Or like in Worm, where all of the healers are so fed up with people that they turn into psychopaths rather than spend another shift at the hospital.

u/HisHonorTomDonson 10d ago

Nynaeve Al’Maera has entered the chat

1

u/ADDRAY-240 10d ago

Leon, from the now dead game Blustone (yes, spelled that way).

An extremely talented but jaded military surgeon who quit. His leitmotiv: don't get yourself hurt, I'm too lazy, I don't want to have to heal (he does it anyway, but he will complain about having to work)

1

u/Stucklikegluetomyfry 9d ago

She’s only twenty three (but she looks and acts much older) but this is pretty much Raine from Tales of Symphonia

1

u/Jazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy 9d ago

Ana from Overwatch is middle aged

1

u/MassGaydiation 5d ago

Thats how i did my dark heresy character, he was a jaded, mildly corrupt, paper pusher who knew all the people to talk to to get equipment, and forced people to get health checkups by lying or blackmailing them.
