Synthetic man. All parts, minus a few red blood cells. Nick Valentine is a synthetic private investigator and potential companion of Sole Survivor, who lived in Diamond City in 2287. Content show BackgroundEdit Unusual robot detective, Nick Valentine is the only detective of a small agency he works in Diamond City with his assistant Ellie Perkins. In addition to possessing memories of the late pre-war detective, Nick has certain abilities that complement his investigative skills: he is very effective at hacking computers, and is adept both in combat and in close combat. Valentin considers himself a prototype between second-generation synthesizers and the latter, which may explain why he exhibits intelligent intelligence and is not innately hostile to non-specialists. It is generally well respected throughout the Diamond City, despite its mysterious origins. Initially, along with another synth called DiMA, the synth that will become Nick Valentine was one of two unique prototypes of Gen 2 synths used to test if and how synths can handle independent thinking. For years he experimented on, having different personalities and memories from ex-men uploaded to him. Despite this, he and DiMA have grown families as a bond with each other, due to being the first and only synths of their kind. That was until DiMA, being an experiment on a synthesizer developing its own sense of consciousness and self without pre-loaded personalities or memories, grew resentful of the experiments performed on him and his brother. The two synthesizers managed to escape, but not before the Institute uploaded a new identity and memories into Dima's brother. The synthesizer, now identifying himself as a pre-war policeman named Nick Valentine, confused by the sudden awakening of 200 years in the future, attacked Dima, who was left with no choice but to knock out Nick and leave him behind. After regaining consciousness in a pile of debris an unknown amount of time later, Nick roamed the wasteland in a state of confusion for weeks. Because of the Ignorance of the Institute and its technology, most wastelands Nick with equal parts of fear and reverence; however, he was eventually admitted to a small local community, where the mechanic offered to repair the damage he had received in his his During this time Nick befriended a child he knew only as Jim, the first human contact Nick ever had. The community was the first time after he was awakened that someone treated Nick as a human being, not as some kind of mechanical monster. Nick eventually left the settlement; Visiting years later, he discovered that he had been looted by raiders. The fate of its population remains unclear. Nick eventually ended up traveling to Diamond City. While Diamond City has a little hatred for the institute and their synthesizers, Nick earned their respect by rescuing the daughter of the city's former mayor, Henry Roberts, as she ran away with a caravan trader. The caravan dealer and his companions, unbeknownst to the girl, were actually kidnappers who proceeded to take her hostage. Nick came across the kidnappers purely by accident as he wandered through the Commonwealth wasteland, having been almost exclusively errant since his awakening. Caught at gunpoint and probably the girl's only hope, Nick scared the kidnappers away by claiming he had a bomb inside him and a beep (Nick claims he literally just said the word beep repeatedly). When the mayor's daughter told Nick what had happened, he returned it to his father, who in turn provided him with a house in Diamond City as compensation, despite the concerns and objections of citizens; Nick gradually eased citizens' fears by acting as a handyman. His formidable detective skills were brought to the vanguard when he helped find his wife, who was presumed dead: Nick discovered that she had actually run away with her lover. Over time, people stopped asking Nick to correct the situation when it became clear that he had found his true calling as a private Detective Diamond City. While on the case to find a woman named Darla, who is believed to have been kidnapped but actually ran away to join the gang gangster Skinny Malone, Nick was captured by a gang and imprisoned in their hideout in Vault 114. It was here that he met and was rescued by the only survivor. They escaped from the vault after colliding with Skinny Malone. After escaping and meeting in Nick's office, the Only Survivor enlisted his help in tracing their missing son. Nick eventually opens up to Sole Survivor and begins the search for a long wait. Nick asks them to help him tie the last free end of Nick Valentine's original life: to bring down his old rival Edward Winter. By tracking all 10 old Winter holotaps, Nick and The Only Survivor use them to decode Winter's hide and code to get in. Once inside, Nick encounters a ghoulist winter (which, predictably, does not recognize Nick). Along with the Only Survivor, Nick kills Winter and avenges the murder of Nick's fiancee, Jennifer Lands. Nick then shows The Sole Survivor site where winter is killed Jennifer before contemplating who he was and what purpose his life was after that moment. While traveling with Sole Survivor, Nick finds a chance to find the missing daughter of Kenji Nakano (who apparently worked with Nick on a previous case that ended up with Kenji getting shot in the hip). The trail leads to Far Harbor. While on the island, Nick reunites with Dima, who is currently the leader of Acadia. While DiMA is very happy to see his brother again, Nick is reluctant because of not remembering DiMA at all. Finding evidence of their relationship, The Lonely Survivor can convince Nick to accept Dima as his brother, and they sometimes greet each other or communicate at the entrance to Acadia. Original Nick ValentineIt Nick Valentine was originally a police detective from Chicago. He was taken to Boston to lead Operation Winter's End, an operation to bring down mafia boss Edward Winter. Unfortunately, Winter or one of his associates managed to learn about Nick's fiancee, Jennifer Lands, and kill her in retaliation for Nick's involvement in the operation. The Bureau of Alcohol, Drugs, Tobacco, Firearms and Lasers received intelligence that Winter's accomplices were discussing her whereabouts, but senior officers decided not to put Jennifer or Nick under witness protection to avoid compromising the investigation. To make matters worse, Nick and the rest of the Winter End task force discovered that Winter had made a deal with BADTFL and the district attorney to incriminate his accomplices in exchange for immunity. In the weeks before the bombs fell, Winter was released and Operation Winter End was disbanded. Nick was ordered to seek treatment for PTSD in the ruins of C.I.T., where his brain was scanned as part of his treatment. So the Institute managed to get pre-war memories of Nick.

This will take some time, depending on the complexity. However, it can fail and be blocked forever. This chance increases with each tier. If it fails and blocks itself out of the terminal, the player's character can still try to hack the terminal on his own. Valentina will not break into terminals that strictly belong to someone else. Valentine can be used to hack into otherwise inaccessible terminals in the game that are actually part of a specific quest.
