Medkit/Lore
Appearance
Medkit is a well put-together demon, who dons a suit in the uniform style of The Church of the TRUE EYE,[4] and whose signature color is teal. He has two horns which closely resemble antlers that protrude from the sides of his head and extend upwards. On each horn, he has two tines following the same direction, and he wears a gold ring on his bottom right tine. In between both horns sits a floating crystal, which is the source of his gear's power. He wears a diamond shaped eyepatch with an inset gold trim over his left eye, covering his removed and stitched eye, and he is commonly seen with a disgruntled or forlorn expression.
His suit is predominately a dark forest green, with bright teal accents throughout. His suit jacket opens up to reveal a teal cravat tied around the collar, and with gold trim on both sleeves, and a diamond shaped appliqué just above the cuffs. He wears high waisted dress pants in a teal argyle pattern, a motif he shares with Scythe. His pants are fastened by two gold buttons at the waistband. He wears dark teal gloves on both hands, and forest green dress shoes.
He wields his medkit in his left hand, and his revolver in his right. Both are adorned with the same teal argyle motif as his uniform, and are trimmed with gold. His revolver is a distinctly brighter teal than his medkit, matching the color of his horns and cravat where the pattern is applied across the barrel and the grip. The sight, muzzle, hammer and trigger are all gold, with the rest of the gun being a dark teal. His medkit resembles a briefcase, exhibiting the same argyle pattern, along with a teal cross on the upper side, and gold accents along the body of the medkit, the corners, and the handle. The handle also has a bright teal grip.
Personality
Medkit is generally asocial. He has a dry sense of humor and doesn't display his emotions very well. In his interactions with others, he is easily annoyed and irritated, and is particularly blunt about it. Despite his aloof and reserved nature, his actions suggest he has some underlying concern for others, although he does not outright claim this. He does not seem to enjoy violence. Medkit also sees himself as rather mature, and sees consuming things like juice as childish.[5] Notably, he has PTSD and suffers from paranoia and nightmares, which may explain his standoffish behavior towards others.[6]
Lore
Medkit is a Phighter from the Lost Temple faction, affiliated with The Church of the TRUE EYE. He is originally from Blackrock, and in his time there he worked as Subspace's lab partner, studying crystals together.[7] A violent altercation eventually ensued over different beliefs in how to utilize them,[7] resulting in Medkit losing his left eye and fleeing Blackrock after severely injuring Subspace.[8]
Relationships
Ban Hammer
Medkit is predominantly apathetic to Ban Hammer, despite the fact Ban Hammer is actively hunting him due to Medkit 'betraying' Blackrock.[9] They are amicable during Phights, but Medkit appears to hold some contempt for the other.
Boombox
Medkit is annoyed by Boombox's outgoing behavior and loud music,[10][11] and is put off by how relaxed he is in Phights.
Rocket
Through Sword’s connection to Rocket, Medkit knows him and the two are close friends.[12]
Subspace
Medkit and Subspace are former co-workers, now enemies. Even when they worked together, they did not like each other.[13]
Sword
Medkit and Sword are close friends and are like brothers.[14]
The Broker
The Broker and Medkit are colleagues in The Church of the TRUE EYE, but not friends.[15]
Scythe
Scythe is Medkit's superior in The Church of the TRUE EYE. The two seem to have a somewhat amicable relationship, although Medkit is somewhat wary of her, even if he's willing to talk back to her. Medkit altered her gear[16] and is responsible for her prosthetic arm.
