Medic in Training
"I'm helping out Dr. Huan today."

- Tuta

Tuta was a young medic who received his training from Doctor Huan. He was the son of one of the doctor's friends and his initial interest in medicine was sparked when Doctor Huan successfully cured Tuta's mother of an illness. In addition to his lessons from Huan, Tuta also assisted the doctor with various tasks, including making deliveries.

Before the outbreak of the Dunan Unification War, Tuta regularly delivered medicines to Viktor's Mercenary Fortress. He was popular among the residents of the base, such as Leona, Gengen, and others. When called upon to fight, Tuta utilized a peculiar projectile - a pebble that he wielded skillfully. This seemingly ordinary pebble was unique, as it could be modified and upgraded by a blacksmith.

Following the fall of the fortress and the mercenary forces' evacuation to Muse City, Doctor Huan foresaw the unfolding events of the Dunan Unification War. He asked Tuta to serve as a medic within Viktor's forces. While Tuta lacked the ability to conduct full-fledged medical procedures, he did his best to assist in any way he could. Eventually, he became an integral part of the New State Army. When Doctor Huan later joined the army as well, Tuta continued supporting him in his medical duties.

After the war concluded, Tuta's dedication to medicine remained unwavering. He pursued advanced training under Doctor Huan, showing even greater determination in his studies.
