Bio

Dr House works at Princeton-Plainsboro, a teaching hospital in Princeton, New Jersey. House suffered an infarction (blood clot) in his right thigh some years ago. Initially diagnosed as a pulled or stained muscle, the infarction cased severe damage to House's leg. After intense physical therapy in which he had to learn to walk all over again, House is dependant on a cane, though he is able to take small steps without aide. House is shamelessly addicted to Vicodin, the only pain management he will consider. He flaunts his addiction by taking pills on the job, occassionally in front of patients. House has a reputation as a brilliant doctor, and the mundane clinic duty he is forced to work drives him insane. He occassionally calls his boss, Dr Lisa Cuddy in for unnecessary consults just to kill time. Speaking of killing time, House often plays Game Boy and watches Soap Operas while at work. House's oldest friend is Princeton-Plainsboro's own Head Of Oncology, Dr James Wilson. Wilson is often the only person who can get through to House. House oversees a team of three, Dr Eric Foreman, Dr Robert Chase, and Dr Allison Cameron, although Cameron recently resigned due to extrenuating circumstances not worth mentioning here.

[[Dr Gregory House, MD. (From Fox TV's "House MD") Role playing journal. I am not Gregory House (impossible, since he's a fictional character) nor am I House's creator, David Shore. I can't even claim to be House's voice, because that would be Hugh Laurie. I'm a fan of the show, the character, and the actor. This is a not-for-profit journal type thing.]]

otherways canon: The damaged leg *was* amputated, his girlfriend authorised the surgery while he was incapacitated. He shall remain a diagnostician, however instead of picking and choosing his cases like he is prone to do, he takes any and all he can get his hands on to keep himself busy. And because so many of his icons incorperate the cane, I'm saying he uses it for balance, yes.

In canon, House is highly independant. For the purposes of Otherways, that's not necessarilly true. He lives with his best friend, James Wilson because unlike canon House, he's insecure and somewhat afraid of being alone.

the_islands_rpg House has been sent to Resurrection Island, upon his death some years in the future. He wakes up there with all his memories in tact, and his leg completely healed.
