I swear, that woman acts as though we're married.— Professor Scara regarding Doctor Duff

Professor[1] Scara is a scientist found in the Science! Center in Diamond City alongside Dr. Duff in 2287.

Background[]

Scara came to Diamond City and settled in with Dr. Duff because of the access to the laboratory equipment she provided.[2] In contrast to Duff, who is more interested in fun experiments and teaching biology lessons, Scara is a much more serious scientist, refusing to deal with visitors and referring them to Duff instead.[3] Though Scara mostly writes and speaks about her in frustration, Duff's dialogue script notes state that she is in a romantic relationship with her,[4] and that they are an odd couple.[5]

Scara possesses a great deal of knowledge about robotics,[6] and in addition to attempting to fix Takahashi's Japanese language subroutines,[7] she frequently goes on field expeditions for a couple of days.[8]
