Jamie McCrimmin

Jamie McCrimmin is a world-class medic and leader of the Maintenance Crew.

Early Life
McCrimmin was born to a small group of Scots that had managed to make the journey from Edinborough to Ashford during the Invasion. In a trip that had taken them almost a hundred years of hiding, running and just trying to survive, they had learnt much about how to harvest the unnaturally dangerous plants of the wastelands in order to make them usable for healing, and passed on their knowledge to the next generation. Eventually, however, their numbers got smaller, and McCrimmin is one of the last, having been born just before they got round London and into the North of Kent.

His entire family was taken in by the Maintenance Crew, and his knowledge of medicine and herbalism almost guaranteed him a prominent position in the Faction, but even he didn't expect that he would be voted in as leader when the previous one, a George Stevens, died, he would be voted in.

Current Situation
Since he has become leader of the Maintenance Crew, Jamie has started sending out far more groups of wandering healers and soldiers to help the other survivors of the Clean Zones. He has done this because he is well aware of the problems he has inherited from his predecessor - his Faction has been pushed back to a single shopping centre by the hordes of Omnisects that have taken over Ashford in the previous two decades, and they just aren't militarily-minded enough to make a go of fighting back by themselves. Luckily, his new stance of helping everyone has gained him some support from groups of Eternal War and Eagles soldiers that have started competing to kill more of the creatures - a competition he has done everything in his power to encourage.

Some members of the Faction believe that this support of competition between two other Factions is more manipulative than a Maintenance Crew leader can really be allowed to be, but Jamie disagrees, and many who see the results agree with him.

In Combat
Jamie McCrimmin doesn't fight. Even when cornered, he will do everything in his power to find an opening and flee. He does, however, have at least two bodyguards at all time which are armed with the best weapons and armour the Clean Zones can provide, and who are trained to lay down their own lives so he can escape. Even if he does escape, he will stay nearby and resuscitate any fallen fighters after the battle is over and it's safe for him to come out.

Why David Tennant?
It's common knowledge that David Tennant is an excellent actor, and his most famous role is, of course, a Doctor. He is also excellent in Cassanova and Hamlet.

More than anything, the casting of the most popular Doctor of this generation will help get many gamers and sci-fi fans to at least look into the game when it's released.
