Alwyn Davies

[sweet_alwyn]

Alwyn Davies is a junior doctor, currently working in neurology (I haven't decided yet). He's ambitious, focused on his work, and slowly making a name for himself at the hospital. He can come off as somewhat cold, is possibly on the spectrum. Highly intelligent, but social skills are somewhat lacking.

He is brother to Corbin Davies, the actor, who is currently filming a TV series in an abandoned wing of the hospital. The pair are somewhat estranged but working on getting closer as a family. Alwyn finds Corbin frustrating, and often feels as though he's cleaning up his older brother's messes.

Corbin Davies

[prince_of_nymphs]

Corbin Davies is a beloved and well-known actor who made his name on the stage before moving onto film and television roles. He's won multiple awards, stared in many roles, and is considered one of the best actors of his generation. Recently he turned down the offer to return to a massive Hollywood franchise in favour of working on a TV hospital drama series for the BBC, deciding that it might be the only way he ever might re-connect with his younger brother, Alwyn.

Corbin Has been secretly in and out of rehab over the last 15 years or so, and to this day struggles with substance abuse. He also has been hospitalized in the past due to an eating disorder. He's recently divorced from his ex-husband and manager Walt Victors.

Corbin often shadows doctors at the hospital for his part.

Hector Newsome

[just_hex]

Hector Newsome, head nurse in A&E. He's from the north and wears his accent like a badge. He was in the military for a bit and retired with honors and enough medical training to fast track him into this job. He's an adrenaline junkie. There's a betting pool on what bone he'll break on holiday because he always does. While he takes risks in his personal life, he is a talented an dedicated nurse and takes his job seriously and holds all his staff to a high standard.

He's exceptionally social and makes friends easily. He's got the best bedside manner and when Dr. House has to consult in A&E the chief of staff makes certain Hex is on the doctor's right so he can give the patients the care House won't.

He only lives 2km away and runs to work every day, and he's terribly punctual. You can set your watch by his arrival. Departure is another story.

Dr. Harlene Quinzelle

[dr_q]

Dr. Quinzelle is a brilliant psychotherapist who specializes in the most twisted psychotics. She has a practice in the hospital, but she is notoriously hard to book. Most of the time she's not in the hospital, but at Blackwatch Prison where she's been working with one special patient.

While she's at the hospital, Dr. Q usually does psych consults in A&E, but also has a few long term patients she sees.

What none of her patients realize is that she's researching them, more than trying to help them. The entire hospital is her private psychological experiment and results are fascinating.

[drfeelbad]

House is... House. 100% canon aside from being set in London. He's a brilliant diagnostician who gets away with way too much due to his value, including his vicodin addiction which is a pretty open secret.

[alcuin]

Alcuin is a fresh-out-of-med-school resident specializing in psychiatry.

Five years ago, he was all over the news because his adopted father was murdered and he was blamed for it. There were also rumors that Alcuin and several other young people had been prostitutes under this man's thumb. He'd been in college at the time. He took a year off and then reappeared in medical school where he excelled and tried to put the baggage behind him.

[boston_legal]

Alan Shore is a well known London attorney (a transplant from Boston and there are Rumors about that move) who is now the lead counsel for the plaintiff in a very high profile lawsuit against the hospital.

He lives in a hotel and has night terrors that once landed him in the hospital when he fell out of a lofted bed.

John Constantine

[petty_dabbler]

John's a janitor. Sorry, maintenance technician. Bunch of bollocks. He deals with the gore. The blood and fluids, the things people don't want to think about. If it's wet, he'll take care of it. And people are glad to ignore him and let him carry on.

Which means he gets away with so much. Things people can't bloody imagine.

On top of cleaning the place, John's more productive line of income was cons, long and short. He's also a magician. His specialty is close up magic and while he makes a lot of money pulling his tricks in bars, he only keeps in practice to impress the cancer kids up in their ward.

And near midnight you can usually find him on stage, fronting Mucous Membrane in some shitty bar or another.

Dr. Quinton Alton Mills

[cuppa_q]

The youngest acting director ever appointed in the city of London, and certainly at London General itself. Quinton (though most people just call him Q) hadn't been looking for the job, but when it had been offered he'd said yes without hesitation. Truth be told, as talented as he was as a physician, he was somewhat eager to get behind a desk and away from the operating table. He always liked his work best when it let him keep his hands clean.

New to both the job and the hospital, Quinton is still getting to know everyone and what, exactly, his new job entails.

Dr. James Bond

[0_0_7]

Bond had been set to take the director position. He was the head of A&E, oversaw the number one trauma care center in the city. When disasters hit, it was his department that saved the lives. Some said he allowed his staff a bit too much freedom, but he found that a talent for innovation came in handy in crisis.

The department was known through the entire nation as one of the best. Of course they'd make him director. It certainly wouldn't be Harry. Surgery was so tidy. No chaos. He had this sewn up.

Until a child usurped his crown.

Klaus Hargreeves

[seanceinfurs]

Permanent resident of the psych ward at the hospital. Klaus Hargreeves suffers from hallucinations that he can't distinguish from reality. He used to think he could communicate with the dead. He sometimes still believes that.

He's been at the hospital for a long time, and he's free enough to roam around usually. Often found in the child wing making jokes and doing silly things the kids love. At heart, he's a kid too.

On darker days he might steal morphine or other drugs to escape for a while.

Dr. Hannibal Lecter

[anamusebouche]

Head ER surgeon Dr. Hannibal Lecter has been at this hospital for several years. He's known for his skill, his ability for fast decision making, and his ever steady hand. Despite the rush inherent in the ER, he is precise and always takes his time ensuring scarring will be down to a minimum.

He has excellent bedside manners and is loved by the ER team. He loves to cook and host dinner parties and regularly brings some new recipe he tried out to the break room.

Oh, and he eats people.

Guy Burgess

[patriotqueen]

Guy Burgess has been a lawyer for quite some time, but only recently began as the hospital's lawyer after the last one quit on the spot due to differences with some staff.

He doesn't know a lot about medicine, but he knows the mazes and holes of the law, and he's already won the hospital several lawsuits.

That's the game for him. To find the hole and win. Ethics are not his concern.

Landon Rivers

[landon_rivers]

Landon is former military and is head of security at London General. American, kind of intimidating, but a softy at his core.

Landon is relatively new to the hospital and still settling into life in London.
