Physician

Physician is a character featured in The Sims Medieval. The doctor is responsible for curing the ill by dropping a couple of leeches on a affected sim, that process is called "Bleeding" the Sims. It's for the "draining blood" process, and then giving them medicine.

If the Sim neglects his/her's responsibility as a doctor, then they might have to pay a fine, or be humiliated. Sometimes even go to an execution, though that may only happen if the Sim is a repeat slacker in their job.

When a Sim is ill or has the plague they go to the doctor to be cured. If not, the plague may spread when the infected Sim enters a crowded area. Quests may involve the doctor having to find a remedy to a mysterious illness, or curing the monarch.

Progression
Initially, the hero's title is Bloodletter. Presumably there will be a new title at levels 5 and 10 as with the Blacksmith and the Merchant
