I'm here to make sure the bunker stays in one piece.

Paladin Sato is a Brotherhood of Steel soldier living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background[]

Paladin Sato will visit the Brotherhood of Steel safehouse every 2–3 in-game days and will be able to repair the player character's weapons and armor (up to 100%) for a price.

Interactions with the player character[]

  • If the Courier blows up the Hidden Valley bunker, Sato will become hostile.
  • If one gets caught pickpocketing Sato, he will turn hostile.

Inventory[]

Notes[]

  • If the player character leaves items that count as food out in their room, Sato can pick them up. Trying to pickpocket them back will result in a loss of Karma.
  • Sato will repair all types of weapons and armor, but as with other non-player characters, he does not repair clothing with "—" in any of the CND, WG or DT boxes.
  • If Sato becomes hostile to the Courier for any reason, he will pick up any weapon he can find. If he takes one of the weapons at the safehouse, the only way to get it back is to kill him, as it cannot be pickpocketed off him.
  • Sato claims to fix the weapons in the bunker to tip top condition, but the weapons there are in rather low condition.
  • Just like Major Knight, one can pickpocket him to take back any caps spent on repairs.

Appearances[]

Paladin Sato appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
