Patrick Kitchener grew up healthy, loved, and nurtured. He grew up in a household where his dreams and desires were supported as best they could. Except for his sudden goblinization during a sleepover on his 9th birthday - his new Ork features being gently accepted by his parents and most of his friends - his childhood is not worth mentioning. Patrick took an interest in medicine during his education, and quickly steered his studies towards being an EMT, setting his sights on eventual employment with DocWagon.
Patrick Kitchener grew up healthy, loved, and nurtured. He grew up in a household where his dreams and desires were supported as best they could. Except for his sudden goblinization during a sleepover on his 9th birthday his childhood is not worth mentioning. Though his new Ork features were gently accepted by his family, he had a harder time in the real world. Toughing his way through prejudice and years of what meagre education in first aid, combat tactics, and firearms training he could obtain, he eventually gained employment as a member of a DocWagon SRT. His crew: Zen, Bees, Filligree, and now Patrick. He quickly earned himself the name Nurse due to his by-the-book approach to first-aid.  
 
After years of study in medicine, combat tactics, street knowledge, and firearms training, Patrick landed a spot on a DocWagon team as threat support personnel. The next six months were the happiest he could remember being. He probably should have questioned why, in that six months, he never once seemed to see an actual DocWagon station. Or why he was required to go door to door in a neighbourhood trying to sell DocWagon contracts. Or why they drilled him so hard on B&E methods.
 
Or why Zen, the leader of the crew, would demand payment from the bleeding victim before beginning treatment.


Patrick's career ended one moonless night when his crew met unusually strong resistance from a gang of very-well trained gunmen. A lull in the gunfight found Patrick huddled in cover, when he overheard radio chatter from the mercenaries. The words 'damned posers' and 'victim vultures' stood out immediately. It finally clicked when, from his new vantage point, he spotted the ambulance in DocWagon livery.
Partly by the way he babied his main firearm as well.  


The rest of the night was a blur. He and his crew managed to get away without their payday. He told his crew that that was it for him. He'd had a change of heart and wanted out, the stress of being shot at was too much. Zen took it somberly and wished him luck, but the look in Slip’s eyes betrayed their true feelings. His house was filled with lead by unidentified shooters later that night.
Patrick’s career slammed to a halt one day when he was discharged on suspicion of allowing a client to die under his care. His dream job lost, his years of schooling potentially wasted, and two loving parents who want nothing more than to hear good news from their son, Patrick had to find another line of work for which his skills may be put to use.
 
Patrick now lives the life of a failed college graduate. He can't tell his parents about his mistake. can't make them worry about him, not after all they had done for him. His skillset may come in handy elsewhere, however. The gear he managed to keep won't hurt either.
