Thomas Wayne

Dr. Thomas Wayne (トマス・ウェイン, Tomasu Wain) was a gifted surgeon and philanthropist at the Gotham General Hospital, one of the fifth generation of the Wayne family to live in the Wayne Manor and father of Bruce Wayne, and heir to the Wayne fortune. Dedicated to philanthropy as much as medicine, he and his wife Martha were well-known and respected in Gotham. He was the CEO of Wayne Enterprises until his death, a position that his son, Bruce, had inherited later on after he gained control of the company. Being one of the most prominent citizens in Gotham, he was trying to change the city into a better place, up until the end of his life. Their tragic murder at the hands of a desperate burglar, Joe Chill, in Gotham's Crime Alley shook the city to its core, and led to years of urban blight. It also inspired their son Bruce to eventually become the Batman.

"Those who have the most give the most."
 * —Thomas Wayne, quoted by Bruce Wayne.

Notes and Trivia

 * A bench in Arkham Asylum have been dedicated to Thomas and Martha Wayne.
 * The Monarch Theatre, the location of the Wayne murders, is present. Behind the building are chalk outlines of where Thomas and Martha fell, with a bouquet of flowers and a tape that has a taunting message from Hugo Strange as well a note on the flowers saying "It will end where it began". It is presumed that Strange had re-sketched the chalk outlines to disturb Bruce. The player has the option of paying their respects by having Batman kneeling by the outlines. Doing so for about three minutes will get the "Pay Your Respects" achievement/trophy.
 * The murders of Thomas and Martha Wayne took place at 10:47 p.m., on the 26th of June.
