Kellogg

Conrad Kellogg is an antagonist appearing in Fallout 4.

Background
Kellogg is originally from the New California Republic on the West Coast. As a child, Kellogg lived in an impoverish household with his abusive father, a former raider and his loving yet weak-willed mother. Being an alcoholic, Kellogg's mother could not depend on his father to feed the family and relied on Kellogg instead. Eventually, Kellogg moved to San Francisco where he married with Sarah and had a daughter, Mary. He started working for the Shi. He fell into trouble again, then probably is ex co-workers punished him by killing his wife and daughter. Then he went back for revenge on them, as he is seen walking trough an halley and then breaking in a room killing everyone. He tried to move on going away, working as a ruthless mercenary, only to realize that he lost forever the only two person who can give him the true happyness.

After working as a mercenary in the west, Kellogg traveled to the East Coast and the Commonwealth, where the Institute hired him to find Vault 111; the Institute required radiation-free test subjects, and the vault's cryogenically-preserved residents were the perfect candidates. Kellogg chose Shaun, and killed Nate/Nora when they resisted. Shaun's DNA was used by the Institute to complete the Generation 3 synths, and he eventually became the Institute's director.

At some point, Kellogg was cybernetically enhanced, presumably by the Institute, which halted his aging and extended his lifespan. By 2287, he is over 100 years old, but physically appears to be less than half of that.

Some time after kidnapping Shaun, Kellog lived for a while in Diamond City with a synth with the appearance of a 10 year old (according to Ellie Perkins) Shaun. He eventually abandoned their house after X6-88 came to collect synthetic Shaun on behalf of the Institute. Afterwards, the Institute continued to rely on Kellogg's services for other odd jobs they needed done in the Commonwealth.

He later barricaded himself in Fort Hagen where he was finally confronted in the quest Reunions. On his way from Diamond City he hurt himself in several battles, making it easy for Dogmeat to scent his trail.

The Sole Survivor then finds his hideout and battles through waves of Synth. Kellogg taunts the player but gives some respect upon taking note of the Sole Survivor's determination and offers a chance to simply turn back, something he claims other people would never do. After the last wave, Kellogg then orders his Synths to back down to permit a conversation with the player in which a final fight ensued afterwards.

After being killed in combat, the Sole Survivor takes his cybernetic brain augmenter which allows him to access his memories, with the help of Nick Valentine, and find out what happened to their child.

Effects of player's actions
The Sole Survivor will have to slay Kellogg and take his chip away to Memory Den, where they will see Kellogg's past and find the way to enter the Institute - teleportation.
