I’m hoping to design a logo that that is recognizable as both the archtype of healer from the context of gaming; but also as a symbol for the irl field of medicine.

I know I’ve seen some awesome examples in the past, but now that I’m actively looking for them, all I’m finding are a bunch of crosses, potion bottles, etc.

The one that stands out as a good example is Skyrim’s school of restoration logo:

^reminiscent of the Caduceus, which is universally recognized irl; but also uniquely Skyrim’s.

That said, Skyrim’s is kinda just a bird: hoping to find more intricate samples so that I can steal and combine the bits I like.

If you know of any cool healer logos from a videogame, please point me to it!

Thanks all!

    Not the red cross on a white field. That’s the symbol of the Red Cross, and they get antsy if anyone else uses it. But you can use the white cross on a red field. Or a green cross. Or the rod of Asclepius. The caduceus isn’t really supposed to be for medicine.
