Rose MacLean

Rose MacLean is a former resident of Vault 33 and ghoul, seen briefly in the Fallout TV series.
==Background==
Rose was born and raised in Vault 33, which was meant to serve as a breeding pool for Vault 31. As such, Rose and her ancestors were deemed to have healthy genetics by the Vault-Tec Corporation. Rose took on the name MacLean after marrying Hank, and she was unaware Hank was a pre-War Vault-Tec employee. She was the mother of Lucy and Norm, who turned out to be clever children.
Upon learning that someone was siphoning some of the Vault's water production, she deduced that civilization had re-emerged on the surface. Hank pointedly forbade this line of questioning, prompting Rose to become suspicious of him. She took her children away from him and abandoned the Vault suddenly to live on the surface, angering Hank who believed Rose was taking her children into a dangerous world.
During the 2270s, Rose, Norm and Lucy lived in Shady Sands, although Norm and Lucy were too young in order to have formative memories about the surface world. There, Rose became close with Lee Moldaver. At another unspecified point in time (possibly during The Fall of Shady Sands in 2277), Hank confronted Rose and she decided not to return home. Hank took his children back from Rose and moved them back into Vault 33. Hank lied to his children, telling them as they grew up that Rose died during a Vault famine in 2277.
She was in the vicinity of Shady Sands when it was destroyed post-2281.https://www.ign.com/articles/fallout-official-timeline-confirmed-how-the-show-fits-in-with-the-games This may have been the event which transformed her into a ghoul, although it is hypothetically possible she was transformed into a ghoul by other means.
Rose was then moved to Griffith Observatory.
==Fallout TV series==
Rose's Pip-Boy was used by Moldaver's raiders to access Vault 32.
Rose is seen in flashback sequences, when Lucy is reminiscing.
===The Beginning===
When Lucy arrived at the Griffith Observatory, Moldaver was sitting at a dinner table with a particularly wretched feral ghoul. She invited Lucy to sit with them, who refused. Moldaver then revealed this ghoul to be what yet remained of Rose.
She was ultimately mercy-killed by her daughter during the Brotherhood attack on the observatory with a 10mm to the side of the skull. Shortly thereafter, Moldaver sat beside her body and held her hand as she succumbed to her wounds.The Beginning
==Personality==
According to Moldaver, Rose was similar to Lucy, being kind, loving and curious.
==Appearances==
Rose MacLean appears only episode "The Beginning."
==Behind the scenes==
When asked if Rose and Moldaver were lovers, Moldaver's actress replied, "I have a backstory and I can’t say much. But I can say I love that [fans] are picking up on all of this and adding — or whatever — to it. There is such a closeness and who knows… if there’s a Season 2, you’ll find out.”https://decider.com/2024/04/19/sarita-choudhury-fallout-fan-theories/
