Garl Death-Hand

"You think you can come here without challenge? This, the home of your deadliest enemies? We will see you dead. I will personally tear your heart out of your chest and eat it before my proud warriors!"

- Garl Death-Hand

Garl Death-Hand is the leader of the Khans in 2161.

Background
Garl is the brutal leader of the Khans by 2161, ruling his band of raiders after killing his father, the former leader, with an iron fist from an old ranch house in the middle of nowhere. He is descendant from the population of Vault 15 and regularly raids Shady Sands for supplies.

Other Interactions
When Tandi is kidnapped by the Khans and the Vault Dweller is asked by her father, Aradesh (the leader of Shady Sands), to save her, the player can barter with Garl for her. Whilst bartering she appears as herself from the shoulders up.

If the Vault Dweller is male and has Luck greater than 8, there is a 50% probability that he will look like Garl's father, the original Death-Hand and original leader of the Khans. Everyone in the camp gets freaked out by the "ghost of Death-Hand" returning since Garl killed his father to gain control of the gang.

Effects of player actions
Canonically, as established in Fallout 2, Garl is eventually killed by the Vault Dweller along with all other Khans in the Khan camp. Only one (which doesn't appear in Fallout), called Darion, who continues the Khans legacy, carrying on in Fallout 2 as the New Khans.
