This page is about generic Brotherhood of Steel characters in Fallout. For the rank, see Initiate. For the various generic characters throughout the Fallout series, see Initiates. |
Initiates are trainee soldiers for the Brotherhood of Steel at Lost Hills in 2161.
Background[]
Initiates are the lowest ranking members of the Brotherhood. Anyone recruited into the Brotherhood of Steel starts at the rank of initiate, and is mentored by a higher-ranking sponsor,[1] while children born into the Brotherhood of Steel begin their training, and indoctrination, as squires.[2]
Initiates train and learn to become knights or scribes (or lancers after their creation). Once they finish their training, they choose their path of development.[3][4][5][6][7][8]
These initiates work hard and study, some get to go on patrol with the paladins. With years of dedication they become senior initiates.[9] Ones that are bunking with Jerry "the mouth" tend to have a hard time sleeping.[10] He is known for his inability to be silent,[11][12] even when he is asleep. Should the Vault Dweller join the order he will be bunked with Jerry, as his last roommate had to get a transfer.[13]
