Hermione Granger -- Just Being Useful

Hermione Jean Granger might not have her wand, nor her enchanted clutch, but she is still doing everything possible to be as helpful as she can.

She has spent enough time helping Madame Pomfrey, that she knows how to help with the minor injuries. And when an injury is serious enough for someone with experience, she is extremely useful in triage situations. Assessing who needs help first, and who can wait a few minutes. She takes the time to just be a friendly face some days too. To sit by a bed and tell stories. Or to just listen to someone's concerns.

Her survival knowledge is useful when it comes to helping those prepare an expedition team. She can help ensure that expedition packs have all the items they need -- and is really good at checking and double-checking her lists. And offers recommendations to any expedition members who request them.

As Hermione meets more and more people, she updates her Arthimancy rune equation. The runes were not with her enchanted clutch when it was taken. So they are the only piece of her magic that she still has with her.

The runes can still guide her to where she is needed. And where she can help.

Hermione is unable to use her magic more than once a day, without her wand. And thus she only uses her magic when absolutely necessary. One day it was a Reparo to mend one of the machines that seized up, and to get it back in working order. Another day, it was a Vulnera Sanentur to heal deep gashes of a wounded man, was not deemed to be at the top of the triage order, but still required something of immediate attention.

Each spell exhausts her. It drains the color from her face.

Hermione finds other ways to be useful. She just needs to be useful.
