"Prime' Video's Fallout was one of the hottest shows of 2023, and long-time gamers and post-apocalyptic fantasy fans are united in their excitement for season two. Fallout, which is based on the video game of the same name, arrives on Prime Video for a second series on Tuesday (16 December), and returning trans star Xelia Mendes-Jones is set to make more waves as non-binary character Dane."
"Mendes-Jones uses he/they pronouns and has been very vocal about his preference to ensure that their fans can refer to him correctly. In 2023, they posted on Instagram that he "only really use(s) he/they now" and that "if you still refer to [them] as female, that's on you at this stage". In his Instagram bio he also refers to himself as "your local trans guy"."
"Dane is officially described by showrunners as "a confident and eager Initiate of the Brotherhood of Steel, and Maximus 's closest peer. They believe in the mission of the Brotherhood and dream of one day suiting up as a Knight." The character of Dane has been taken by fans to be non-binary due to the fact the show description uses "they" as a pronoun. This therefore makes them the third known non-binary Fallout character, following Orlando and Burke."

Mendes-Jones uses he/they pronouns, has stated that he primarily uses he/they, and previously appeared in The Wheel of Time.
