Nick Valentine
CHARACTER
An android private detective, and possible companion, in Fallout 4.


Overview

Nick Valentine is synthetic humanoid A.I., or synth, created by the mysterious organization of scientists called The Institute. He lives in Diamond City, working as a private detective for hire. Even though synths are generally regarded by people as a threat, the citizens of Diamond City eventually warmed up to him.

Background

Valentine does not know precisely when he was created by The Institute, but he believes that he is a prototype between the first and newest generation of synths. His personality and memories are those of a pre-war police detective, who volunteered to donate his memories to The Institute (then known as Commonwealth Institute of Technology).
