Dean Printable Version

Background

• The slightly older best friend and roommate of Nicholas Tink, and a blood member of the Blackburne family. His father, Tod Hope, died shortly after the outbreak, leaving Dean to be raised in the shadow of a fractured and dangerous legacy after his mother Ruth fled with her lover Mirra.
  
• Taken to Westport with his mothers and trained from an early age in the Blackburne way -- the family are master spies and operatives.
  
• After Jeremy (Oliver Blackburn) uncovered Vera's identity, he contacted the Blackburnes and asked them to keep watch over her. Dean and his family carefully worked their way into Westport's trust, positioning themselves as allies while quietly carrying out their true purpose: to watch and protect Vera. Dean becoming Nick's best friend was not intentional, but became convenient.
