Nora's Personality & Background

To enable interactions with other companions, Nora has a defined personality separate from the Sole Survivor. While player choices usually shape the Sole Survivor's character, this Nora is her own person, influenced by her past and her identity as a Synth.
Before the War

Nora was a lawyer, passionate about justice. She planned to return to her career after giving birth to Shaun, finally able to live a peaceful life with her husband, who had just returned from war. Life in the suburbs of Boston was perfect—blue skies, green grass, friendly neighbors—until the bombs fell.

She remembers entering Vault 111’s decontamination chamber and falling asleep. Then, a flash of light—people in hazmat suits, shadows moving in the dark—and silence.

When she woke again, everything had changed. This wasn’t Vault 111. Scientists in white coats examined her, ran tests, and ignored her questions. Over time, she noticed small things—her old scar from a dog bite was gone. Her body didn’t feel different, but something was off. Eventually, one scientist broke the silence:

"It’s been 200 years since the war. You’re a Synth—an Institute prototype, built to be a Courser. Your memories belong to a woman who died long ago."
Struggling with Her Identity

Nora couldn’t accept it. She could feel her heartbeat. She could breathe. She remembered everything—her wedding day, the night Shaun was born, the silly little things that made her her. How could she be a machine?

Trapped in the Institute, she was given an education on the state of the Commonwealth. The world was different now—Minutemen, desperately clinging to order; The Brotherhood of Steel, ruthless technology hoarders; The Railroad, a thorn in the Institute’s side.

She was trained by X6-88, who warned her to stay hidden from the Brotherhood—"They kill anything that isn’t human. Use stealth devices. Stay out of sight."

Then, the visits stopped. Days turned into weeks. Was this another experiment? Another test?

Until the day a familiar figure entered the room.

The Sole Survivor had found her.
