Marguerite Feldman¶
Role: Nurse Practitioner, Ceres — community clinic
Background: Not Ceres-born; has been on the station longer than Rin has been alive
Relationship: 1D — Rin/Lin and the Mispahk siblings (their physician)
Overview¶
Marguerite Feldman runs a mostly above-board clinic, and the mostly is the entire point. Her philosophy is simple enough to fit on a sign: people matter more than regulations. Her priority is bringing medicine, care, and safety to people who would otherwise be too afraid to walk through the door — even though the services are free to everyone. Fear keeps people away from free things. Marguerite's clinic is where the afraid learn they can stop being.
She is very private about her personal details. Nobody knows where she came from before Ceres, and she's content to keep it that way. What matters is what she does: she will pass on information — and meds — if she thinks it will help her community.
At the Table¶
The clinic the Mispahk sibs went to when they needed healthcare — which means Marguerite has been patching up Rin's family for years. She is a safe door, a warm exam room, and a discreet source all in one. If the crew needs medical help on Ceres that doesn't generate a data trail, or community information from someone who hears everything and says very little, Marguerite Feldman is the person.
