And this is why I sent out these messages, since y'all always have something nice (or decent) to pitch. Because honestly, I didn't realize Zaun had the Cultivairs, unless I haven't been digging for Zaunite information in the right place.

I do agree with you, with all that I've been assembling for Nevon, having him also be a botanist would give him a new face that can be shinied up. Currently, he has much going on, so some parts of what oyu've theorized may not be inserted, but having him study plants and be the founder of the Cultivairs would be a nice touch to who he is, as he is a futurist in ways. Check out the message wall with Double Slap, as they helped me flesh out some of the backstory for him; others such as Will and Primus tweaked his kit around a bit to make it more efficient or worthy of LoL content, be it by editting my sandbox or by chatting with me on the discord.

Back to Nevon, I too agreed with a "Combat Medic" needing more than just being a military doctor, which is why I had also made him partially an engineer so that he won't be asking other Zaunite engineers to spare a few leg braces for his patients.

But with the addition of him being a Botanist, there is more than just human lives that can be at stake here. I will admit, he won't visibly be using plants, but as you say, his medicine will contain them, while his possible bio will show he's a unique Zaunite who believes that (plant) life should grow in Zaunite than letting the pollution continue. If anything, one of his parents could have been a biological pharmacist, and while Nevon took up the greenhouses, he left as per story, not caring enough about the plants; when he returns, he sees that not only are the patients the victim of his blindness by fame and wealth, but the plants in the greenhouse that was cared by his mother or father has suffered too. Going out to research plants could give him more of a reason to venture outside Zaun aside from the "need to save people in war" mantra.
