Dean Winchester

. DEAN GROWING UP

Dean was four years old when their mother was killed. On his fathers orders, he took baby Sam and ran from the house, without having seen exactly what was happening. From that time onwards, he followed his fathers instructions, learning to fight demons and protect Sammy. When he was around 6 or 7 years old, he learned to shoot, with his father training him by using bottles for target practice. He bulls-eyed every one of them. When Dean was 10 years old, Sam was attacked by a Shtriga while they were in a motel in Wisconsin. Dean was supposed to have been looking after him, but had left him alone. Luckily John appeared in time to save Sam, but Dean carried the guilt with him for a long time. By the time Dean was 16 years old, John was taking him along on hunts. Dean told this to Gordon that he was 16 when he killed a vampire and later burned his body. This as the time when he embraced the life.

He is major fan of classic rock music and heavy metal. He always wears a brass amulet on a long black cloth band necklace.n the episode A Very Supernatural Christmas, the necklace is revealed to be a gift from Sam on Christmas Day, 1991. The amulet was originally meant for John, but after their father yet again failed to come home for Christmas, Sam gave it to Dean instead, saying "Dad lied to me, I want you to have it," and because Dean desperately tried to give him a good Christmas. In addition to the amulet, Dean always wears a silver ring on his right ring finger. He also has a small black tattoo on the upper left side of his chest, it is a protective plated pentagram with rays of the sun surrounding it.

Besides his "baby" the Impala, Dean's favorite things include bacon cheeseburgers, pie, coffee, and Busty Asian Beauties (magazine and Web site).

. DEAN'S CONNECTIONS

RELATIONSHIPS Name: Cassie Status: Alive Relationship: Met in Athens, Ohio, where she was at college and he was on a hunting mission. Dated a few times and became close enough for Dean to trust with his biggest secret - what he did for a living. Confused and slightly freaked out, she ended their relationship, despite still being in love with him. When her father was killed, she contacted Dean for help and they eventually renewed their relationship, although Dean soon left town again. Name: Leyla Rourke Status: Most likely dead Relationship: Dying from an inoperable brain tumor, Layla and her mother were frequent visitors to Roy Le Grange's church in the hope that he would heal her. She met Dean and formed a friendship with him after he was healed, but Dean and Sam had to stop the "miraculous" healing before Layla was cured. Had their situations been different, there was a chance of a relationship between the two. Name: Jo Harvelle Status: Deceased Relationship: Despite the age difference, Jo clearly has a crush on Dean, although it could be more to do with the fact that he is a hunter than anything else. He has flirted with her in the past, but realized that it might not be a good idea. Name: Lisa Braeden Status: Alive Relationship: Dean had a fling with her once that he refers to as the "bendiest weekend" of his life. Almost 9 years later and there is still a spark between them. Lisa has a son named Ben who she says is not Dean's, but the child bears a striking resemblance to Dean. After the Apocalypse Dean decides to stay with her and Ben. It was Sam's last dying wish. Name: Andrea Barr Status: Alive Relationship: Widowed mother of Lucas, Andrea seems immune to Dean's charms when they first meet, even shooting him down when he tries a chat-up line on her. However, by the time he and Sam leave the area, she clearly starts to realize the attraction between them. Name: Carmen Porter Status: Unknown Relationship: In Dean's fantasy world, Carmen was his live-in girlfriend. In the real world, she was a model in a magazine. Name: Anna Milton Status: Deceased Relationship: Anna was a fallen angel who, thanks to the efforts of the Winchesters, managed to retrieve her Grace and return to her angelic form. She had a passionate fling with Dean in the Impala one night, before retrieving her Grace, and was ultimately killed in Season 5 by the Archangel Michael for interfering in his plans.

. DEAN - LIVING AND DYING

THE DEAL

When Sam was killed, it broke Dean. He did the one thing he could to get his brother back - he offered his soul in a deal with a Crossroads Demon. The deal gave him Sam back, but gave him only a year to live. The caveat was that if they tried to break the deal in any way, Sam would die instantly. Sam tired to save him but wasn't stressful and dean died in season three finale No Rest For The Wicked. In season 4, he was pulled out of Hell by Castiel, who told him that God has plans for him. In season 5, he is on the verge of fulfilling prophecy as the one who will somehow stop Lucifer.

. EQUIPMENT

WEAPONRY

Dean tends to use a chromed Colt 1911 with ivory grips, which John is seen using in a flashback. He also uses a sawn-off double barrel shotgun when he needs extra firepower. Dean has also been seen with a sniper rifle in "Simon Said." He is shown to possess a large Machete in "Fresh Blood" and has used a knife in several episodes.

. SKILLS AND ABILITIES

Due to his father's training and his years of experience, Dean has several notable advantages for a human and is a formidable hunter and combatant. He is superbly proficient in hand-to-hand/close quarters combat and has demonstrated proficiency in knife fighting as well, using a blade on several occasions. He is an exceptional shot, capable of achieving excellent accuracy with most weapons, and is well-versed in the use of multiple types of firearms, although he prefers his Colt 1911 and sawed-off shotgun. He also possesses considerable demolitions training and apparently is knowledgeable in the science of chemistry, as he has been shown to be capable of making improvised explosive devices through the use of common chemicals. Dean is extremely proficient at tracking, hunting and killing various supernatural creatures and has considerable knowledge of these creatures, their habits, weaknesses, appearance, ways of disguising themselves among humans, methods of killing, and where they normally prefer to live and hunt. In addition to his combat skills, Dean is a skilled driver and a accomplished mechanic. He knows the inner workings of the Impala so well that he can often detect when something is wrong with his "baby" merely by listening closely. He also rebuilt it following the accident at the end of Series 1.

He has demonstrated great proficiency at reading and manipulating people and assessing a given situation through observation, is a competent con artist, and is knowledgeable in how police, the fire department and various other agencies-such as the FBI, Home Land Security and Center for Disease Control operate and respond to emergencies. Dean is also highly adept at escape and evasion, and can effectively remain unseen and move silently when the situation requires stealth. He is highly resourceful as well, is capable of quickly disabling and hacking various electronic devices-such as home security systems-and can quickly bypass (pick) most standard locks.
