Megan Reed

Megan Reed is the head of neuro-scientific research on augmentations at Sarif Industries and Adam Jensen's romantic interest in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

History
Megan Reed was born in Seattle, Washington, in 1995. She moved to North Carolina around 2009-2010 and then moved to France in 2012, where she graduated magna cum laude in Neurology & Physchology. She returned to the United States in 2018, was hired by Sarif Industries two years later as a genetic researcher. She became the head of the science team in 2023.

As the head of neuro-scientific research on augmentations at Sarif Industries, Megan is in charge of advancing the applications of cybernetic augmentations for the company. David Sarif handpicked her due to her earlier work and extensive research in the field. It was also Megan who recommended Adam Jensen for the job as internal security consultant.

In 2027, she was preparing to go to Washington D.C. along with other scientists to defend their research once again, but not before she confesses to Adam that this new discovery is too big. In an e-mail with David she explains she is afraid of possible questions concerning the first sample and Patient X.

During the attack on Sarif Industries laboratories by the Tyrants, she is rendered unconscious by Jaron Namir as she attempts to defend the maimed Adam Jensen. The scene ends shortly thereafter, but six months later she is stated to have been killed, and official autopsies have apparently been performed. However, Megan was never explicitly shown to have been killed, causing player speculation on whether or not she may be alive.

Indeed, after Jensen's confrontation with Zhao Yun Ru at the very top of the Tai Young Medical tower, it is revealed that Megan's, as well as her other team members', GPL implants are still active, meaning that they are still alive. She is eventually found in the Omega Ranch research facility in Singapore, guarded by none other than Namir. Adam speaks to her after killing Namir, and she is revealed to have been forced to work on her augmentation project for the benefit of the Tyrants and, by extension, the Illuminati.

Trivia

 * She was preforming research on "Patient" X involving his gene sequence.
 * Her research is a possible precursor to the nano-augmentations.
 * Michelle Boback, Megan's voice actress, is the wife of Elias Toufexis, who in turn voices Adam Jensen.
