Hua Tuo

Hua Tuo (onyomi: Ka Da) is a famed physician of the Eastern Han Dynasty who was an expert in herbal medicines, surgery, anesthesia and medical exercises. Ironically, Hua Tuo disliked being recognized as a doctor and avoided treating Cao Cao. When the warlord found out, he had Hua Tuo executed and later regretted it. Romance of the Three Kingdoms expands Hua Tuo's list of patients to Zhou Tai and Guan Yu for his famous poisoned arrow treatment.

Role in Games
Hua Tuo appears in Dynasty Warriors Vol. 2 as the guardian of one of the treasure troves during the Battle of Guan Du for Yuan Shao's forces. He offers no offensive stats as an officer, but greatly increases the player character's health and Musou gauge while possessing advanced healing skills.

Throughout the series through an indirect cameo, the "All Recov." battlefield item (which recovers full HP and musou when picked up) appears to be his famous ointment under his name, stylized as a blue-rimmed urn with a yellowish-patterned base. However, in some cases, the item is referred to as an elixir instead in some installments such as Dynasty Warriors 5, possibly due to the supposed usage of wine as an ingredient. His Blast portrait shows him actually carrying the said ointment bottle unique to the whole Dynasty Warriors series.

Dynasty Tactics
Dynasty Tactics 2 gives him mention as the doctor who saves Sun Ce from the arrow injury inflicted by Xu Gong's loyalists. He then tries to talk Sun Ce out of battle, as doing so will kill him.
