Wally West

Wally West (b. January 16th, 1991) is the son of Rudy and Mary (née Allen) West, the nephew of Barry Allen and Iris West-Allen, the grandson of Judy (née Garrick) Allen, great-grandson of Jay Garrick, and descendant of William Garrick. Like Barry, Jay, and William, Wally developed the speedster powers that alpha and beta men in his family can inherit due to whatever genes were activated when William Garrick was struck by lightning in the late 1700's.
Wally was born in Ohio on January 16th, 1991. When he was seven, his mother, Mary West, was killed by his father, Rudy West. Because of this, Rudy was sentenced to life in prison, which he is currently doing so at the Belmont Correctional Institution, also in Ohio, and Wally was placed into the custody of his maternal uncle and aunt, Barry Allen and Iris West-Allen. His uncle and aunt, knowing that Wally could potentially develop the speedster powers, did not allow him to do sports. But when Wally did not develop them after presenting as an alpha at the age of 15, Barry thought that he would not develop his powers at all. It was only two years later, in May of 2008, that he realized his mistake when Wally did.
