Stealing objects from the hospital to use in his research. - Habits/Quirks: stims with his hands when nervous, often bites pencils unconsciously.

Or just dad jokes. - Dislikes: people who don't understand his research, greasy meals, wasting time. - Fears: Someone stealing his research, to die alone. - Speech Habits/Accent: Speaks quickly without any noticeable accent. Effusive. Only uses complicated words when mad. Average speech for a 26yo in the 80s, doesn't use slang. - Relationships: • Dr. Daniel Cain, his assistant and only friend. • Dr Gruber (deceased), his mentor, the only father figure he ever had. • Dr. Hill (deceased), a pervert who West hated and killed with a shovel. • Megan Hasley (Deceased), Daniel ex-girlfriend who died and Daniel tried to reanimate with the reagent (didn't work) • Gloria (Deceased) Daniel ex-girlfriend that died from cancer * Francesca: Daniel ex-girlfriend that left him - Backstory: Born in Canada 1965, his parents moved to Zurich soon after that. West killed them in a chemical fire, and ended up being adopted by Dr. Grueber, who taught him science and became a paternal figure. Both created the reagent, though in an early stage. When Grueber died, West tried to reanimate him, but the reagent didn't work and Grueber -zombified- head exploded in front of him. He moved to Miskatonic, in Arkham, Massachusetts. To resume his medical studies as a third-year, there, he met Daniel Cain, and they became roomates. He also met Dr. Hill, known for stealing some of Grueber early work. Soon enough, and to Daniel girlfriend -Megan Halsey, daughter of the Dean Hasley- dismay, West told Daniel about his research, by reanimating his dead cat, Rufus. Daniel was... fascinated, even if slightly scared, and accepted to help West in reanimating a corpse from the morgue. The corpse, however, was a failure, and killed Megan father. They managed to cover it but Daniel told Meg, and she cut him off. By now Daniel has entered shock twice. West made him a sandwich for that. Dr. Hill discovered the dean death was their fault and tried to steal West research, but west killed him by cutting his head off with a shovel. However, he reanimated Hill. Hill-zombie knocked West out and stole the research while Dan was with Meg. Hill made a zombie army and kidnapped Megan, later killing her. Hill was a creep, but they managed to end him. After that, and with Daniel positively traumatized, they escape to Perú, during the Sendero Luminoso era, working as war doctors. After returning from Perú and moving to a house near a cementary, Daniel met a girl named Gloria, who died from cancer. Then, he started dating a girl named Francesca Danielly. Both blondes similar to Megan. When Daniel said he wanted to leave, West proposed something: They would use Megan heart and other women body parts to bring her back. West called this creation "the bride". Along with her, he made some other chimeras, like a finger-eye-puppy-spider, playing with his reagent. Hill head survived and, after forcing someone to attach bat wings to him, went to try to kill West. The "bride" killed herself after Daniel said she wasn't Megan. The Crypt falls, the whole thing a fiasco. Daniel escapes with Francesca but returns to save West, despite Francesca calling him a freak. Currently Daniel isn't very sure about his life choices. He choose Herbert, the research, over his prefect normal life, and he doesn't like the implications. Herbert on the other side wants to continue. - Shares universe with some of lovecraft myths - Shares universe with Ash Williams *After the Crypt fell, both him and Daniel moved to a small town in the middle of nowhere, Wyoming.
