Young, enthusiastic and talkative, Cabbot has been stationed at the entrance to [[Lost Hills]] alongside [[Darrel (Lost Hills)|Darrel]] in order to greet visitors to the bunker and turn them away if need be. Although Cabbot is clad in [[Power armor (Fallout)|T-51b power armor]] for this purpose and looks like a Brotherhood [[Paladin (rank)|paladin]] at a glance, he is actually just an initiate. He's training under [[Vree]] to become a scribe, to turn his love of books into a career in the order.<ref>Cabbot: ''"{1102}{Cab_55}{The knights say he can be a tough taskmaster, but I don't personally, because uh, I'm studying under Vree to become a Scribe.}"''<br />''"{1105}{Cab_58}{OK, well, scribes are the keepers of all the histories and the blueprints for the weapons we make. I just love books; that's why I want to be one . . . a Scribe, that is.}"''<br />([[CABBOT.MSG]])</ref> Due to his lack of experience in the wasteland, he's a bit awestruck when experienced wastelanders visit the bunker.<ref name="FOSG" />
Cabbot serves as one of the two door guards at the [[Lost Hills]] bunker, the other being [[Darrel]]. He is also a joke of a recruiting officer for the Brotherhood of Steel, having sent many naive wanderers on the same wild goose chase.
 
   
  +
However, he's also a dutiful member of the Brotherhood and carries out his orders to the letter. For the most part, it means turning away wastelanders who seek to join the Brotherhood. Usually, this takes the form of sending them to [[the Glow]] to recover [[Ancient Brotherhood disk|an artifact]], as per [[John Maxson|High Elder Maxson's]] orders.<ref>Cabbot: "''{115}{Cab_5}{Uh, well, I talked to the High Elder, and he said that not just anyone can join. He, um, he said you have to complete a quest first. }''"<br />([[CABBOT.MSG]])</ref> The fact that nobody returned from the quest yet has become a running joke among the Brotherhood's members old enough to realize the purpose of the exercise was to get rid of aspirants.<ref>[[Kyle (Brotherhood)|Kyle]]: ''"{105}{}{Nothing. It's just that no one has ever made it back from the Ancient Order.}"''<br />[[Vault Dweller]]: ''"{107}{}{What? Then why did they send me down there?}"''<br />Kyle: ''"{109}{}{Heh, heh. I guess they just wanted to get rid of ya, huh? Well, the jokes on them.}"''<br />([[KYLE.MSG]])</ref>
Before the Vault Dweller successfully obtained the "[[Ancient Brotherhood disk|ancient item]]" from the [[Glow]], he apparently sent many other wastelanders who aspired to join the Brotherhood to find the same [[holodisk]].<ref>[[KYLE.MSG|Kyle's dialogue file]], lines {105} - {109}</ref> Many charred bodies - many of which can be assumed are dead wastelander - lie around the facility, proving the obvious dangers involved in the Brotherhood's initiation, and the fact that many people of the [[New California|wasteland]] wanted to join the Brotherhood.

  +
The [[Vault Dweller]], who managed to retrieve the [[ancient Brotherhood disk]], was the first person to succeed on such a quest in a very long time.<ref>[[Vault Dweller's memoirs]]</ref>

This is great! Hang on while I open the door.

Cabbot is a high-level scribe initiate[1] of the Brotherhood of Steel in 2161.

Background

Young, enthusiastic and talkative, Cabbot has been stationed at the entrance to Lost Hills alongside Darrel in order to greet visitors to the bunker and turn them away if need be. Although Cabbot is clad in T-51b power armor for this purpose and looks like a Brotherhood paladin at a glance, he is actually just an initiate. He's training under Vree to become a scribe, to turn his love of books into a career in the order.[2] Due to his lack of experience in the wasteland, he's a bit awestruck when experienced wastelanders visit the bunker.[1]

However, he's also a dutiful member of the Brotherhood and carries out his orders to the letter. For the most part, it means turning away wastelanders who seek to join the Brotherhood. Usually, this takes the form of sending them to the Glow to recover an artifact, as per High Elder Maxson's orders.[3] The fact that nobody returned from the quest yet has become a running joke among the Brotherhood's members old enough to realize the purpose of the exercise was to get rid of aspirants.[4]

The Vault Dweller, who managed to retrieve the ancient Brotherhood disk, was the first person to succeed on such a quest in a very long time.[5]
