Piper Wright



Piper Wright is a possible companion of the Sole Survivor living in Diamond City in 2287. She is described as "a woman wearing a red leather coat and an old-fashioned newsboy hat". She runs her own newspaper called "Publick Occurrences", and has a little sister.

Background
Piper was the journalist of Diamond City until the mayor kicked her out for writing a negative article about him. Piper, as well as being a journalist, is also a traveler, who has a keen eye when using pistols.

A long time ago, Piper and her sister Nat lived outside of the Commonwealth with her father in a small community protected by local militias. One day her dad was killed by raiders according to the the captain of the militia. Piper didn't believe him and discovered that the captain had sold out the community, inviting raiders to attack the settlement at a future time so he can get paid. Her father was killed by the captain for threatening to expose this treachery.

The local authorities didn't believe Piper when she tried to bring it up so she started publishing newspaper articles until it got the mayor's attention. The captain was exiled and the raiders were caught off-guard and driven off by the prepared settlers.

Eventually after the incident, Piper and her sister travelled to Diamond City to settle down and begin her career as a journalist. She takes pride in getting in trouble and being in "hairy situations". She was poisoned by a cartel of caravan traders colluding to increase prices where she had to drink enough moonshine to vomit and pretended to have a vision of Atom when the Children of Atom were going to sacrifice her to their god.
