The Sons of Suzuki were founded roughly in 2277, when the cryogenic fail-safes in place within the Plum Island Research Facility failed and workers and subjects from Pre-War times began to awake in a new world. The majority of those that lived were ghouls, and after learning of what happened to society after the Great War, struggled to make sense of the world and their place in it. One of those survivors, Shawn Janowicz, an evolutionary biologist that had worked for Vault-Tec, reasoned that ghouls were perfectly adapted to thrive in the ruins of the world, and as such, were the next step in human evolution.
