Folinic (Arknights)

Folinic is a young and promising student of Dr. Kal'tsit, renowned for her exceptional skills as a medic operator. Unlike traditional medics, Folinic possesses a unique approach to her role on the battlefield. She actively seeks opportunities to engage the enemy, indicating that she is not your ordinary medic. Folinic's dedication to her craft is evident in her rigorous training and meticulous attention to detail. She underwent extensive preparatory training for six months before being officially involved in field medical missions. Her commitment to continuous improvement is exemplified by her pursuit of academic excellence under Dr. Kal'tsit's personal guidance. While Folinic's lifestyle may seem austere to many, she maintains a strict routine to manage her own well-being. She follows a disciplined schedule, incorporating physical exercise, healthy habits, and maintaining a research-oriented lifestyle. She avoids indulgences like tobacco and alcohol, prioritizing her studies, research, and medical duties. Folinic's intense daily activities serve a purpose beyond maintaining her health; they help her keep past traumatic events at bay, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep. Originally aspiring to be a researcher, Folinic's path diverged when the Chernobog incident occurred. She sought permission from Dr. Kal'tsit to transition into a combat operator role. After completing her physical fitness evaluation, Folinic joined the reserve operator training camp and underwent an intensive six-month combat training program. Recognizing the vulnerability of most medics in combat situations, she utilized her pharmacological knowledge to formulate reagents that could be transformed into potent toxins, providing her with a means of self-defense and incapacitating enemies swiftly. Folinic harbors a deep-seated resentment towards Ursus, the country of her origin. Her anger stems from the abhorrent living conditions she endured and the tragic loss of her family and friends. Kal'tsit became her mentor and savior, rescuing her from the aftermath of the incident and becoming her only relative. Folinic's desire for vengeance led her to delve into the dark secrets of Ursus, fueling her anger further. When the opportunity arose to join Dr. Kal'tsit and leave Ursus behind, Folinic seized it, considering wherever Kal'tsit is as her true home. Upon officially joining Rhodes Island, Folinic was granted the opportunity to choose a code name. She settled on "Folinic" without questioning the significance, unaware that it was the first word in the medical dictionary she had momentarily forgotten—an innocent mistake that marked a turning point in her journey. Interestingly, she discovered that another operator, Sister Atro, had chosen her code name in a similar manner. With her bureaucratic formalities completed, Folinic embarks on her new role as Operator Folinic, ready to contribute her unique skills and unwavering determination to the cause. Throughout her journey, she knows that she can always turn to Dr. Kal'tsit for guidance and support, making her feel at home in the presence of her mentor.
