Markus Vaughn is a doctor gifted with the healing touch and one of the main protaganists of Trauma Center: New Blood along with Valerie Blaylock. Originally a doctor at Concordia Medical Institute, he assisted Dr. Lloyd Wilkens with his research for a while until the risks became too great, this prompted him to volunteer to be transferred out to the Montgomery Memorial Hospital in Alaska, followed by colleague Valerie Blaylock who wished to learn the Healing Touch. His goal is to reverse the damage that has been done and destroy Stigma once and for all.
[edit] History
Markus was born in and grew up in California. After receiving his diploma, he eventually came to work in Concordia Medical Institute where he met Professor Lloyd Wilkens. Markus helped Wilkens with his research on the disease that would eventually come to be known as Stigma until the risks became too great. Wishing to hone his skills and do some soul searching, Markus volunteered to be transferred out to the Montgomery Memorial Hospital in Alaska, followed by colleague and friend Valerie Blaylock who wished to learn the Healing Touch from him. Markus was well liked by the staff at Montgomery,and enjoyed his less hectic lifestyle. But when Director Hoover retired and closed Montgomery, Markus, Valerie and ex-patient Elena Salazar who was now assisting Markus were forced to move back to the golden state and return to their positions at Concordia. After the disappearence of Professor Wilkens, Markus, Valerie and Elena were drafted by director Irene Quatro to join Caduceus.
[edit] Personality
Markus is in many ways the Yin to Doctor Blaylock's Yang. Markus remains calm and collected in almost any situation,and doesn't lose his temper when goaded, as is demonstrated when he appeared on Wish Come True: Miracle Surgery. Despite his calm, Markus is passionate about his job and isn't afraid to act when needs be. He genuinely cares about his patients and displays a talent at connecting with them personally. He also posseses a strong sense of morality, as is demonstrated when witnessing the uproar in Culurama.
[edit] Healing Touch: Time Slow
Markus possesses the same Healing Touch as Derek Stiles; the ability to block out all distractions and operate up to four times faster than normal, the superhuman level of concentration gives the impression of slowing down time. However, Markus has not yet shown the ability to completely stop time, as Derek has while fighting Savato.
