Description
A floating, glowing golden cadeceus.
Storytelling Hints
Caduceus is concerned with healing the sick, primarily, and is less concerned with physical injuries. It is also very tied to the concept of medicine and will not use its Heal numina in a fashion that might be construed as laying on of hands. This generally means that it won’t use it unless it has fettered itself to a host.

Background
Caduceus was born from the original hospital set up by the Sisters of Mercy and has been associated with their order ever since, assisting members of its staff where it can in order to further the cause of medicine. It is aware of St. Mary but disapproves of her use of her Heal numina.
