Armitage

 is the bodyguard of Dr. Zimmer. While seemingly very human, he is in fact, not. He is one of Zimmer's many androids.

Trivia

 * Armitage is a very common cyberpunk name, but the fact that this character is an android may be a nod to the Japanese Anime miniseries "Armitage III", as the main character Naomi Armitage, a female cop who is secretly an android. It could also refer to a main character in William Gibson's Cyberpunk novel "Neuromancer".  The "Armitage personality" was constructed as part of experimental "computer-mediated psychotherapy" to repair an otherwise crippled Green Beret.


 * Armitage may also be a reference to Jake Armitage, the hero of the 1993 Super Nintendo game Shadowrun. In this game, one of the cybernetic modifications that can be acquired is called Wired Reflexes. A perk of the same name is given as a reward if The Replicated Man quest is completed by turning in Harkness to Armitage's employer, Dr. Zimmer.


 * Professor Armitage is a character in H.P. Lovecraft's famous story, "The Dunwich Horror." Although the android-related allusions to "Armitage" are more relevant to Fallout 3, the popularity of the name has its origins in Lovecraft. And considering the Dunwich Building is a location northwest of Tennpenny Tower, it's not a stretch to perceive a small nod to Lovecraft.
