Nick (also known as Nicolas) is one of the four playable Survivors in Left 4 Dead 2, voiced by Hugh Dillon. He is a gambler and a conman in a slick, expensive suit. He is also very cynical, so he takes the role of "the complainer" of the Group. Nick joined the other three in their quest to find salvation but is unsure about whether or not he can trust them. Still trying to figure out the best "angle" to get from the recent zombie apocalypse, as the time goes by, he starts to value his Survivor compatriots.

Relationships with other Survivors
Nick portrays a role similar to Francis of the original Left 4 Dead in that he is constantly complaining and subtly insulting others.


 * Coach: Nick and Coach appear to have somewhat of a "love-hate" relationship, similar to Francis and Bill. Nick insults Coach and makes fun of his weight, but also will not hesitate to compliment him when he does something good, such as killing a Special Infected. Nick also seems to recoil quickly when he has clearly annoyed Coach, and Coach is quick to shut Nick up if he complains about the current situation.
 * Ellis: Nick seems to get more annoyed at Ellis than the others, even making fun of him and making him the butt of the joke on a few separate occasions; he may even sometimes say "Ellis" while imitating his accent. However, he does treat him as a valuable asset to the group during the course of the events. His attitude swings between friendly and intimidating with Ellis, for example, after escaping "Dead Center" and starting the events of "Dark Carnival", he will either compliment Ellis ("Don't sweat it, at least you got us out of that mall") or upset him ("Goddamn you, Jimmy Gibbs Jr.!"). He also seems to insult Jimmy Gibbs Jr. on purpose just to annoy Ellis. He does make a few subtle attempts to get along with Ellis, for example, asking if the Midnight Riders, a band that Ellis likes, are good, if only to please Coach, as does Ellis as he always starts conversations with Nick. Even when Ellis dies, his attitude is negative saying "I didn't think you'd last this long". Also, if both Coach and Rochelle are killed, Nick may apologize to Ellis for the things he previously said about him.


 * Rochelle: Nick seems to have a friendly relationship with Rochelle. He speaks more gently to her than the other Survivors, and only insults her when she has shot him. In addition, she is quick to side with Nick when Ellis yells at him for killing the chopper pilot at the beginning of Swamp Fever. Sometimes when Nick sees Rochelle dead, he will say, "There goes repopulating the earth”. Another of his possible lines for her death is "I can think of two other people I would have rather seen go first”, further indicating his preference for Rochelle over Ellis or Coach. Also, in every campaign movie poster (including The Passing) Nick and Rochelle are next to each other.
