The Death-Hand was the former leader of the Khans and the father of Garl Death-Hand.[1][2]

Background[]

The Death-Hand was once the leader, and possibly the founder, of the Khans. Originally hailing from Vault 15, not much is known about him, as his son Garl had any image of his father destroyed after his death[3] and forbids any mention of him. However, a male Vault Dweller can be mistaken for the Death-Hand if they wear a leather jacket and have a Luck stat of 8 or more.

The Death-Hand was physically abusive towards his son, Garl, and was later murdered by Garl.[4]

Appearances[]

The Death-Hand is mentioned only in Fallout.
