== Members of Main Storyline Factions ==
Line 99 ⟶ 100:
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Complexity Addiction]]
* [[Even Evil Has Loved Ones]]: In a twisted sense, as he still genuinely loves and cares for {{spoiler|the Sole Survivor, his only surviving parent. Most poignantly, his final words with the Sole Survivor in the Institute ending are him thanking them for all of their help and imparting some advice on leading the Institute before he dies}}.
* [[Everyone Has Standards]]
* [[Fatal Flaw]]: His fear of the surface world.
* [[Foil]]: To [[Fallout: New Vegas|Caesar/Edward Sallow]]. Both are elderly men with cults of personality formed around them, and have near-dictatorial control over the most villainous faction in each game. Both Father and Caesar are also geniuses {{spoiler|slowly dying of cancer}} who see their factions' terrible actions as [[NecessaryNecessarily Evil|Necessary Evils]] for building a better world out of the hellish Wasteland. However, Caesar is not only [[Badass Bookworm|more dangerous as a combatant]] than [[Non-Action Guy|Father]] is, but is also [[Evil Is Petty|pettier]] and more prone to [[Psychopathic Manchild|fits of rage]]. Father, in contrast, comes across as far more [[Affably Evil|professional and articulate]], being more of a [[Consummate Professional|refined scholar]] than a [[Evil Overlord|barbaric warlord]]. Father also wants to close off the Institute from the surface for the time being so they can rebuild society as a utopia underground, while Caesar is obsessed with aggressively expanding the Legion's influence over all of the known Wasteland.
* [[Freudian Excuse]] {{spoiler|His racism towards Synths and dislike of cyborgs is due in part to his hated of Kellogg for killing one of his parents and leaving the other imprisoned in Vault 111}}.
* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: In-Universe, Father is a scientific genius, and he actually does prove himself to be very intelligent throughout the Institute's questline. However, his S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats aren't anything to write home about, with him only having an Intelligence score of ''4'' according to them.
Line 166 ⟶ 167:
 
==== Sturges ====
* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: Dialogue with Jun shows he's prone to this.
* [[Gentle Giant]]: Despite his height and build, he's not much of a fighter.
 
==== Mama Murphy ====
 
==== Jun and Marcy Long ====
* [[Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy]]: Marcy is definitely the more assertive and commanding of the two in their relationship.
 
==== Ronnie Shaw ====
Line 208 ⟶ 212:
 
==== Dr. Carrington ====
* [[Number Two]]: To Desdemona, and not entirely happy with it, but he's a team player regardless.
* [[Jerkass]]: He can be a bit of a dick.
** [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: On the other hand, he is just as dedicated to the goal of the Railroad despite his personal nasty traits, and if you emphathize wtih his concerns he's far more respectful to you.
* [[What the Hell Is That Accent?]]: His accent is somewhat Indian, which sticks out like a really sore thumb.
 
==== Glory/G7-81 ====
Line 292 ⟶ 300:
 
==== Arturo Rodriguez ====
* [[Nice Guy]]: He's pretty cheery and affable as a rule.
* [[Shown Their Work]]: In-universe. He's quick to inform you how guns are far more useful depending on how they are modified, and his sales dialogue shows he's he's very knowledgeable about the weapons he sells.
 
==== Moe Cronin ====
 
==== Sheffield ====
* [[Drunk on Milk]]: Switched to Nuka-Cola after booze messed up his liver. Unfortunately, that just gave him an addiction to THAT instead.
* [[Shout-Out]]: His addiction is one to Fallout 2, where getting addicted to Nuka-Cola was an actual acquirable addiction.
 
==== Takahashi ====
Line 327 ⟶ 339:
 
==== The Vault-Tec Sales Representative ====
* [[Irony]]: Managed to survive as a Ghoul since the Great War, and he got off lucky compared to you, since everyone BUT you died in Vault 111, the very Vault he was denied entrance to.
 
==== Kent Connolly ====
Line 333 ⟶ 346:
 
==== Whitechapel Charlie ====
* [[Jerkass]]: Given he's a Mr. Handy, this definitely makes him stand out.
 
==== Bobbi No-Nose ====
Line 347 ⟶ 361:
 
==== Trashcan Carla ====
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: The default tone of her voice even.
 
==== Lucas Miller ====
 
==== Cricket ====
* [[Gun Nut]]: To an unsettling degree.
 
==== Doc Weathers ====
Line 383 ⟶ 399:
==== The Mechanist ====
They have another name - {{spoiler|Isabel Cruz}}.
 
* [[Hero with an F In Good]]: They really do want to do the right thing, they just kinda suck at it.
 
==== Ada ====
Line 391 ⟶ 409:
=== Vault 88 Dwellers and Associates ===
==== Overseer Valery Barstow ====
 
* [[The Sociopath]]: Like everyone Vault-Tec chose as Vault Overseers.
 
==== Test Subject A ====
Line 412 ⟶ 432:
 
=== Pickman ===
* [[Serial Killer]]: What he is.
** [[Serial Killer Killer]]: Though he really likes killing Raiders for fun.
 
=== Professor Goodfeels ===
