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." She has a younger sister named Nat.

Background
Piper grew up in a small community outside of the Commonwealth with her sister, Nat and their father, who was a member of the local militia. After her father was found dead under suspicious circumstances Piper learned that he had discovered a raider plot to sack the town. His superior, Captain Mayburn, arranged to leave the main gate open and unguarded one night to allow raiders access in exchange for a cut of the loot.

Piper's father was murdered by Mayburn for threatening to expose his treachery. However, the local authorities did not believe these claims and refused to investigate. Piper then made and circulated wanted posters featuring the captain and a list of his crimes. The settlers, outraged by the story, exiled Mayburn and successfully drove off the raiders.

Eventually Piper and Nat relocated to Diamond City where she began her career as an investigative journalist. Her fervor for discovering the truth made her popular for a while, but eventually public opinion turned against the nosy reporter. Piper's work has led to multiple death threats, assassination attempts, and even a near-execution by the Children of Atom. Even so, finding herself in sticky situations is a point of pride for Piper, who feels getting into trouble is just part of chasing the truth.

When the Sole Survivor first encounters Piper she is on the brink of exile from Diamond City for writing a negative article about Mayor McDonough. While arguing with the gate guard to be let back in, she asks for the Survivor's assistance in bluffing past security. Once inside, Piper advises the Survivor to seek out Nick Valentine for help finding their son, and asks they stop by her office afterward. Completing an interview with her leads to Piper offering to travel with the player and watch their back as they adjust to life in the wasteland.

Other interactions
Jon cena can kill piper.
 * If the Sole Survivor has already found Nick Valentine before traveling to Diamond City the gate will already be open and the mayor will be interacting with Piper inside.
 * Diamond City guards will tell to be careful about having her as the companion because of the trouble between her and the mayor.
 * As the Sole Survivor's companion she will often offer aid in the form of food (commonly gumdrops, sweetrolls, bubblegum and Nuka Cola).
 * Bringing Piper back to Diamond City may cause Nat to run up to her and tell a story about being given detention at school. Piper will then tell her she is grounded, much to Nat's chagrin. However, another conversation has Piper congratulate Nat on getting detention (due to punching a boy who was annoying her), telling her never to change.
 * She also has an interaction with the Sole Survivor about how she believes Nat idolizes her too much, she hopes that time apart will prevent Nat growing up to be like her. The Sole Survivor can offer advice on how to deal with the situation.
 * If you are in a relationship with her, then dismiss her to flirt with another character and romance them, Piper may be found at Nick Valentine's office asking him to keep an eye on you, which he seems to refuse.
 * Occasionally, when passing Takashi, Piper will tell the player she wants to introduce him/her to her informant. She will jokingly interrogate Takashi, finishing by saying that Takashi 'spilled the beans, I bet your name isn't even really Blue'.
