Overview

Salve is a free spirit who's taken on the role of healer--not out of generosity, but in the name of profit. Injured, sick, desperate people are much more willing to offer up karma than healthy ones, Salve has found, so they haunt the more dangerous parts of Seattle looking for people in need of treatment to extort. Recently they've learned that shadowrunners are able and willing to accept their steep fees for “house calls,” and have opened up their practice to include helping runners as well.

Salve isn't malicious and takes no delight in the suffering of others, but simply views their approach to medicine as a valid way to acquire karma and resources. They're generally emotionally detached from their clients’ conditions, and have little patience for those who aren’t paying customers. Salve can be summoned anywhere accessible by astral movement in Seattle, though they'll leave any active combat zone immediately.

They generally appear in the form of a stylized nurse covered in cloth, with no visible skin. They have a flat affect and rarely act excited (even if offered something exciting as payment, they'll attempt to mask their enthusiasm).

GM Notes

• Make sure to use the rules for services when pricing out Salve's spell casts. In particular, remember that the prices in the service cost table are doubled for magical/resonant contact services.
• Without the ability to carry normal items when moving astrally, most physical objects (credsticks included) hold little value for Salve. If they're to be paid physical objects, it should generally be in the form of reagents or medical journals. Aqua Vitae is imbibed on-site.
