I only have one character of a similar age, who is currently in pending (Hector Mettal). Ex-Atlesian soldier and current leader of a network of mercenaries.

I did a bit of research, and I think we could have a very interesting rivalry between the two of them. Since Hector went to an academy at Atlas, and Medicus could go to Beacon, they could potentially be opponents at their Vytal Festival, since it happens every two years since 80 years before.

We could have Hector beat Medicus, which he then holds a grudge over. Medicus could then go on and start harassing Atlas for reasons which I will get onto later, and Hector (who would be an Atlesian soldier at the time) could be dispatched to combat him, resparking their rivalry many years later.

Since Hector wears a mask, I could change his backstory to it being the result of Medicus nearly blowing his face clean off with a grenade or something during their second fight. Either way, Medicus gets really pissed off with Atlas, beginning his decent into madness/villany/whatever, and opening up possibilities for future RP's.

As for Medicus' backstory change (since we haven't been having much luck with wars), I think having him being a Hunter-turned-mad-scientist be a very interesting choice which I haven't seen before. Maybe he could have gotten into some serious trouble with the law from a failed experiment which nearly killed an entire village or something (you know, much more minor things) which made him lose his title as doctor. He wanted a revenge, and started ambushing Atlas soldiers, Hector is dispatched, and the story continues.

Your call though. I personally think this has a lot of potential.
