SAM is a possible Companion for the Stranger. He is a Sanitation and Maintenance automechanical modified to shoot acid at enemies.
Background
Edit
A Sanitation and Maintenance Automechanical, SAM can be found on the Unreliable near the bunks where other companions live. Former Unreliable captain Alex Hawthorne found it in Emerald Vale's scrapheap during a job.
Logs on Hawthorne's terminal show that before his death, SAM was going to be fitted with an Acid steeper in order to make him combat-ready, but the part was lost in transit and sent to an old storage facility in Roseway.
