Ian West

Ian West is a resident of Arefu and a member of the Family $$

Background
Ian West lived with his parents in Arefu for many years with a strange condition that caused him to have a hunger for human flesh. He claims that the first time he experienced craving human flesh was when he was 10 years old. Ian states that he and Lucy were playing outside, when a wastelander started attempting to steal a Brahmin outside of Arefu. When Ian went to warn him to stop, the scavenger shoved him aside, causing Ian to lose control. Ian then jumped up and tore the scavenger's throat open with his teeth before his sister Lucy pulled him off and they swore to never tell anybody.

Eventually, without the presence of his sister, Ian snapped and killed his parents. The Family were attacking at this point, and so the act was witnessed by their leader, Vance. Subsequently, the Family took him in. The Family covered up Ian's actions, taking credit for the deaths of his parents.
