[ A strange creature wanders up to the podium. He wears a mask, body covered head to toe, and the skin that shows just below the mask seems sickly yellowed. There's an ill feeling that surrounds him but he himself seems fairly chipper. ]

Well this is new.

I suppose a question that plagues [HAH!] my mind is purpose, and for what purpose do we live. What purpose do you live for?

[Lichtenstein is starting to wonder if masks are going to become a 'thing' for this place. He wonders briefly if his form counts as a mask, before answering.]

The betterment of mankind. Improvement in the sciences.

[ He could take the mask off if that helped any which he wouldn't be sure why it would but people are strange. ]

Mm! [ He points a gloved finger ] I like that one.

If your outfit is an accurate indication of your occupation, I expect it would. Do you think your purpose would be much different?

[epidemics]

Previous occupation. I think it's now to encourage those who have the willingness to improve science to do so.

[lych_o_learning]

You sound uncertain. Though your gear makes a rather strong statement. Are you considering becoming a teacher?

[epidemics]

Well, you know what they say. Once a plague doctor... [ shrug ] Not really, I think i'd prefer to be a nurse.

[lych_o_learning]

I've never come across a plague doctor. Why would you want to become a nurse when you are a doctor?
