Dean Domino, "The King of Swing" is a roughly 200+ year old ghoul trapped in the post-nuclear apocalyptic hotel "The Sierra Madre." He's smug, intelligent, and pretentious to a fault. He also dons a suit and pair of aviators. Before the nukes dropped, he was a human, who worked closely with the hotel's founders, Frederic Sinclair, and Vera Keyes. He planned to rob the Sierra Madre's gold supply before the bombings, and now he finds himself locked within the hotel, unable to leave for 50+ years.
