Nate

Nate is a pre-War resident of Sanctuary Hills in 2077 and one of the two possible player characters available during character creation in Fallout 4.

Background
At some point before 2077, Nate served in the U.S. Army during the Sino-American War in the 2nd Battalion 108th Infantry Regiment. During the war, he married Nora and retired from the army after their son Shaun was born. On the morning of October 23, 2077, Nate was preparing for an event at the Veteran's Hall in Concord when a Vault-Tec representative approached the family and approved them for admittance into Vault 111.

Mere moments later, a news bulletin warned of an imminent nuclear attack, which forced Nate, Nora, and Shaun to rush to the vault prior to a nuclear bomb detonating nearby. Luckily, the platform below them was lowered just in time. The family, along with all of the other admitted residents, were placed in cryosleep. If he was not chosen to be the player character, he was executed by two mysterious figures, one of them being Kellogg, as they took Shaun away.

Appearances
Nate appears only in Fallout 4.
