Paul Kent

Backstory

Paul Kent spent twenty years as a detective before the collapse, solving cases that mattered less and less as society unraveled. When the infrastructure failed, he didn't join a faction—he went underground, literally and figuratively. For five decades, he's operated in the margins between settlements, gathering intelligence, brokering information, and enforcing an unwritten code that the factions pretend doesn't exist. His badge is long gone, but his instincts remain sharp. He's been tracking the Vault 7 signal for weeks, and his network of informants suggests the vault's true purpose is far darker than anyone admits. Paul knows that whoever controls that data controls the narrative of what comes next—and that's exactly why he can't let any single faction claim it.
