Dr. Dwight "Ike" Arts was a wasteland doctor, a former soldier of the Geist Korps, and a founder of The Wily Bastards. A brilliant but callous man plagued by personal demons, Arts was a native of the brutal Corpse Coast, where he made a living profiting off the nonstop warfare, whether he was a soldier on the front lines doing the killing or acting as a freelance medic patching up the wounded. For a time, he attempted to settle down and start a family, but soon relapsed into his old ways and returned to the Coast. Arts was eventually captured, tried, and devoured by the Cannibal Court in 2271 for crimes against the group. His life story was immortalized in his former comrade Rufus Fengdu's play about the Bastards.
