UP Deathclaws

The UP (University Point) Deathclaws was a faction in the Commonwealth.

Background
As a youth, Deacon was a member of the University Point Deathclaws, a gang that harassed accused synths. Their antagonism escalated to the lynching of a man suspected of being a Gen-3 synth. Shaken by his part in the murder, Deacon left the gang to settle down as a farmer.

Sometime later he married a woman named Barbara. They intended to start a family, but the University Point Deathclaws reemerged and attacked the farm. The gang had learned - to both Deacon's and Barbara's surprise - that Barbara was a synth. Enraged by her execution, Deacon butchered the gang in a bloodthirsty haze.

Appearances
The University Point Deathclaws are mentioned only in Fallout 4.
