## Biography

Kenneth Warren Reed was born on August 24th, 1976. Working-class parents raised him alongside his older brother, Thomas "Tommy" Reed, in Carcer City, a place notorious for crime and corruption. Like much of the Rust Belt, the city was experiencing an economic decline. After facing unemployment, their parents created an abusive environment as they only cared about their dependence on drugs and alcohol.

Kenneth and Tommy performed errands inside the criminal underworld to obtain drugs to satisfy their parents. By the time Kenneth was an adolescent, he was caught by the authorities and charged with possession. Feeling like a terrible older sibling because their lives were going down the drain, Tommy decided to take action and formulate an escape plan. Once prepared, they began their journey with no specific destination in mind, crossing through many states until they reached the city of Los Santos.

Tommy and Kenneth started as amateur mechanics to begin their new lives in the city. Eventually, a local automotive repair shop owner hired the duo, and they started the restoration project of a decaying Western motorcycle. They successfully restored the bike to working order, leading the two to become motorcycle enthusiasts. Even though it wasn't considered street legal and Tommy referred to it as a "death trap," he started to use it as his daily driver.

Their life continued as usual until one fateful afternoon. Kenneth and Tommy were riding on the Great Ocean Highway when a tragic accident occurred. A driver swerved into the southbound lanes at tremendous speed, striking the two. They were both rushed to the emergency room with critical injuries, but Tommy did not survive.

His brother's death devastated him. He resorted to a life of crime, but he used it to cope this time. Since the accident that killed his brother, his bike was collecting dust, and he wouldn't even look at it. He developed severe anxiety towards riding motorcycles, and he refused to ride.

He established many high-profile connections with his return to crime, allowing him to meet Ozzie Gardner, a member of The Lost Motorcycle Club. His association with Ozzie proved helpful as he defeated his anxiety towards riding motorcycles and started as a club prospect. He quickly established himself, becoming a full-patched member and rising through the ranks of the Los Santos chapter. Eventually, he would move to Blaine County, where he presently serves as the Sergeant at Arms in the local chapter.

## Personality

Kenneth is known for his extreme loyalty to the club. With the premature death of his brother, he considers the Lost to be his only family. He is willing to die to defend his brothers, and they wouldn't hesitate to do the same for him.

He is protective of his loved ones, which he doesn't like to admit. He will respond with force against any individual who tries to hurt them. For the most part, he acts in a friendly and calm manner, but he can be easily angered. When angered, he can often be impulsive and difficult to reason with. His anger problem could result from the abuse he endured during his childhood.

He, along with most of The Lost, lives by a code of outlaw justice, opting for an "eye for an eye" mentality, usually resulting in violence. However, he doesn't blindly resort to violence, as he will try to resolve unnecessary conflicts before they can escalate. When a situation does escalate to violence, he is quick to defend his brothers and eliminate any threat. He has no remorse for killing someone if it feels justified.
