Shaun Wilson
Shaun Nathan Wilson
Not to be confused with Shaun West (Director of the Institute circa 2287 and biological son of Aubrey Wilson and Nathan West), Shaun Wilson is the genetic clone of Shaun West.
He was created as a ten-year-old boy, both physically and mentally, and originally had a synth implant alongside his normal brain. However, as Shaun West (Father) watched Aubrey Wilson during her time in the Commonwealth, he had the boy's implant removed. As such, the implant no longer regulates his aging, immune and endocrine systems, senses, skill sets, or memories. Everything would now develop and age as would a normal child.
He's the first true clone that the Institute creates, and the last.
Prior to the implant's removal, West had the boy's memories altered so that he truly believed that Aubrey Wilson was his mother and that he was not a clone. As the SRB was preparing to destroy the Institute following a Minuteman takeover, Father placed Shaun in the charge of Courser X6-88 and gave him a holotape with instructions to deliver it to his mother when he next saw her.
During the chaos of the evacuation, Shaun and X6-88 were transported near Starlight Drive-In, who'd seen X6-88 traveling with Aubrey before. Aubrey Wilson, in the company of Colonel Logan Danse and Mayor John Hancock and using Goodneighbor as a staging area for casualty and damage reports, was informed of the development via radio.
She originally thought that Father was the one who escaped the blast, and decided not to investigate at first, simply telling the settlers at Starlight to see to their needs. It was four days after the destruction when she arrived at Starlight Drive-In with Detective Nick Valentine and Colonel Danse.
It was here that X6-88 explained what happened, and Shaun delivered his counterpart's holotape to her. And here is where she officially adopted him, affirming to him that "of course [she's his] mother... what else would [she] be?", and dubbing him Shaun Nathan Wilson, differentiating him from her biological son.
