Kenneth Collins

Dr. Kenneth Collins was a Vault-Tec scientist stationed in the secret laboratory section of Vault 81.

Background
Dr. Collins was one of only three Vault-Tec scientists who made it into the secret, hermetically-sealed research area of Vault 81 on the day of the Great War before the doors were sealed. This was despite the efforts of the overseer, Dr. Olivette to sabotage the call list in an effort to prevent the planned experiments on the unsuspecting vault dwellers of the main vault. The other two who made it in were Dr. Jim Flint and the younger Dr. Burrow.

Despite being understaffed, the scientists began the initial phases of their work. The vault's overseer, Dr. Olivette, had never intended to allow the experiment to come to fruition. Before the Phase III human testing could begin, she deactivated the disease/cure distribution system and sealed the secret vault's exits, ensuring the residents' safety but condemning the scientists to certain death, including Dr. Collins.

Dr. Collins modified the Contagions Vulnerability Robotic Infirmary Engineer, a Miss Nanny based lab assistant, to take on greater responsibilities due to the staff shortage. He gave her some custom personality settings, giving her both the personality of Liza, someone close to Dr. Collins, and the personality of his "grad school fling from Versailles back in '46," then named her Curie (a combination of the model name and the scientist Dr. Marie Curie, some of whose work was loaded into Curie's databank).
