Doc Maverick

Doctor Gerald Maverick was the first doctor to open up a clinic in the orignal settlement of Karate City.

Convinced by his brother-in-law's best-friend's cousin, Carl Penn, to join the wagon train to the new land discovered in the Northwest corner of the United States.

A tall man with pitch black hair and brown eyes, he walks with a slight limp from a childhood accident. This does not deter him from being the premiere doctor in all of Karate City and becoming very popular with the ladies.

Leg Injury
Doc is not one to talk about where his limp came from or when exactly it happened. He has confirmed that it was at a very young age and that the affliction is incurable. Some have said that his drive to prairie medicine was derived from this lack of cure and desire to better the lives of those less fortunate.

Legacy
Gerald Maverick's legacy lives on after his passing in the early 1900s. His initial clinic has grown into one of the largest hospitals on the West Coast, where many people go for the best in care. This hospital was named after him, Maverick General.

In Doc's memory the hospital has erected a statue of him surrounded by falcons, his favorite pets he owned throughout his life. There is also a special charity in his honor that is designed to provide funding for those with the same incurable injury that plagued him throughout his life.
