Oh yee we're going to all spots in history now.
Some smol apothecary. He owns a little shop in a small Victorian town probably in the south of England by the coast because we still need the coast.
He's a precious bean with a good knowledge of herbs and medicine. He's famous throughout the village; most answers to the question "How'd you heal so quickly?" Is "Patroclus!"
A travelling musician that came into the town, originally planning on stopping in the village for 3 days and then setting off to France to start a music career. That's scrapped pretty quickly when he gets really ill, as in coughing-every-two-seconds ill, and hast to stay in the village for a lot longer than intended.
While he's renting a place in the local inn the innkeeper just takes one look of him and is like "You're sick aren't you? For your sake and the entire village's go visit Patroclus.". After hearing about Patroclus he's just like "seems legit," and rocks up to his apothecary.
Pat just takes one look at him and is just sat there like
[Patroclus] "Oooooh dear gosh influenza."
[Achilles] "Influ... What?"
[Patroclus] "Flu. You have the flu. Right this will sound odd but you're going to be living here until you're better."
[Achilles] "Wait why?"
[Patroclus] "Untreated the flu spreads so quickly and we have so many young children and elders here- I really don't want everyone else to get it especially when it's mid winter and I'm low on herbs-"
[Achilles] "Okay fine I'll stay!"
Achilles ends up really enjoying his time with Patroclus - I mean really enjoying it - and is now trying to think of an adequate excuse to send to France to explain why he's 3 months late to his appointment and at this point probably isn't coming.

He now uses that talent to perform in the local tavern.
The Shepard's daughter and village girl, and one hell of a waitress. She helps out at the bar and Patroclus' apothecary and has many girl friends in the village. She's one of the wittiest people in the village and a very avid reader of Jane Austen.
She knows about Patroclus' and Achilles' love interest in eachother and is always looking out for the two when they're under any suspicion what's so ever.
