“我們的任務是獲得所有先進技術。我們已經盡了最大的努力。不幸的是，我在西部的上級不同意我對形勢的評估。他們覺得我太"依戀"當地民眾了。”— 歐文·里昂斯
里昂斯的鋼鐵兄弟會（英文名：Lyons' Brotherhood of Steel），也被稱為"首都廢土支隊"，是鋼鐵兄弟會在華盛頓特區的一個分部[2][3]該分會總部位於大本營，最初是一支由歐文·里昂斯長老領導的遠征軍，於2250年代抵達首都廢土，隨後在接下來的幾年裡與更廣泛的兄弟會分道揚鑣。
這個新秩序引起了強硬派成員的分裂，使他們脫離了兄弟會，組成了兄弟會流放者。遵循了兄弟會信仰的一個獨特版本，被稱為「里昂斯主義」，強調對外人的慈善。[4]里昂斯死後，該組織的領導層發生了多次變動，最終由年輕的亞瑟·麥克森接任，他讓流放者重新回歸，並廢除了里昂斯主義，將該分會改革為兄弟會的一個新分部。

歷史[]
主頁面: History of the Brotherhood of Steel
2254年[5]位於南加州失落山丘兄弟會總部的領導階層決定派遣一支隊伍一路前往東海岸，其主要目標是:從東海岸的城市和基地收回所有先進的技術。[6][7][8]特遣隊由聖騎士歐文·里昂斯指揮，隨行的還有技術學士雷金納德·羅斯柴爾德，他是歐文的私人朋友，以及幾個兄弟會的資深成員，包括聖騎士亨利·卡斯丁，伊斯梅爾·阿什爾和崔斯坦。
里昂斯的團隊終於在2255年到達了首都廢土，並在最初的幾個月里在五角大樓內建立了一個行動基地。[9]儘管五角大樓大部分都被摧毀了，但它的下層大部分都完好無損，其倖存的庫存包含了未受干擾的戰前技術和武器，以維持他們的行動。王冠上的寶石是自由至尊，[7]這是一個技術奇蹟，如果得以修復，可能會幫助鋼鐵兄弟會重建多年來穩步下降的實力和聲譽。
自由至尊的發現為里昂斯聖騎士贏得了南加州上級的新指令——在首都廢土建立一個新的永久的兄弟會基地，並繼續尋找隱藏在前首都廢墟中的其他先進技術。[10]
掃蕩匹茲堡[]
主頁面: The Scourge
兄弟會的第一個襲擊目標是賓夕法尼亞州匹茲堡。星聖騎士里昂斯在偵察了這座城市後，被掠奪者、變種人和人蛙所困擾，下令對城市進行大清洗。一夜之間，他的軍隊席捲了整個城市，消滅了所有反抗的人，並洗劫了所有有價值的東西。一件有價值的物品也被找到了，但只有里昂斯知道是什麼。所有認識里昂斯的人都注意到，在禍害屠殺了整座城市之後，兄弟會的運作模式發生了重大轉變。[Non-game 1]里昂斯的部隊還帶走了大約二十名未變異的孩子，他們將加入兄弟會，並以優異的表現服役。[11]大多數人以兄弟的身份繼續他們的事業，許多人在戰鬥中犧牲，直到2277年，只有一個人留在了要塞: 格雷格·貝爾，代號科迪亞克，駐紮在里昂斯的驕傲。[12]
在禍害期間裡昂斯的軍隊只傷亡一人: 伊斯梅爾·阿什爾在戰鬥中被埋在廢墟中，估計已經死亡。然而，阿什爾倖存下來，並建立了對匹茲堡的牢固控制，將其轉變為一個工業強國，得到兄弟會技術訣竅的支持。與此同時，他拋棄了兄弟會及其教義，認識到兄弟會那種不可持續的、拾荒者的方式的內在失敗，並試圖在灰燼中建立一個新的文明。[Non-game 1]
新的威脅和概況的變化[]
大本營
在回到城堡並重新專注於調查首都廢土後，新晉升的長老[10]里昂斯在天災之後開始改變。當偵察兵在這片區域發現新的威脅時:一種奇特的超級變種人，棲息在華盛頓市中心的廢棄廢墟上，他改變了優先級。里昂斯深信他們是廢土人民的主要威脅，於是開始了一場曠日持久的消滅運動，不惜犧牲兄弟會最初的技術恢復使命。[13]兄弟會還協助當地科學家進行救援項目: 詹姆斯和凱薩琳是最值得注意的接受者。他們是一對科學家，試圖建造一個大規模的淨水器，為廢土提供幾乎取之不盡的新鮮純淨水，減少他們對當地淨化方法的依賴。然而，儘管有兄弟會的參與，淨水計劃還是未能成功。受挫的里昂斯撤回了他的部隊，讓計劃自生自滅。淨水計劃不久之後就夭折了，在2258年7月，[14]與詹姆斯的妻子凱薩琳一起死亡。[15]然而，里昂斯並沒有完全撤回對他的支持:他允許他的總管，星光聖騎士克羅絲護送詹姆斯和他的孩子到101號避難所，保護他們免受廢土的威脅。[16]
其他聯盟是最有利的。兄弟會獲得了鉚釘城的合作，在廢棄的航母上進行定期招募。在一名現有成員同意為他們擔保之後，志願者被接納為兄弟會的新成員。未來聖騎士丹斯是最引人注目的收穫之一。[17]幾年後，在2272年，三狗與兄弟會建立了另一種有益的關係，作為保護和技術支持的回報，三狗允許兄弟會進入銀河新聞電台廣場，並為兄弟會說了好話。從那時起，它成為兄弟會在華盛頓一片廢墟中的據點，同時也是里昂斯的宣傳電台。[18]
然而，許多問題仍然存在:這些本地超級變種人是如何產生的?他們與西部新加州的超級變種人有關嗎?他們為什麼要抓首都廢土的人?要帶他們去哪裡?[10]
叛變[]
尋找這些答案最終成為了歐文·里昂斯的執念。儘管有相反的證據，但新任命的長老決定，超級變種人不僅對兄弟會和他們在華盛頓的斥候構成威脅，而且對廢土上的所有人構成威脅。[7]用於剿滅運動的資源導致技術恢復實際上陷入停滯。兄弟會在廢土上的存在，曾經延伸到MDPL大型中繼站，沿著波托馬克河，並延伸到戰後維吉尼亞州的社區，包括核彈鎮，現在開始收縮。[19][7]
里昂斯欺騙了西海岸多年，說服他們派來增援部隊和補給，聲稱要繼續科技復甦，但實際上，他繼續命令他的下屬殺死超級變種人來救人。然而，沒有謊言可以無限期地持續下去。當里昂斯斷然拒絕聽從長老委員會的直接命令時，事情到了緊要關頭。作為回應，西海岸迅速切斷了他的聯繫，並拒絕任何和所有增援。到2277年，里昂斯的分會和失落山丘之間的聯繫完全停止，援軍也完全停止了。[20]
里昂斯不得不自謀生路，他的兄弟會開始衰落。與變種人的衝突持續著，資源和人力緊張到了極點:一個超級變種人攻擊小隊完全有能力消滅一個武裝到牙齒的五人兄弟會小隊，而且似乎源源不斷。兄弟會的士兵卻做不到。[21]里昂斯的手下繼續跟隨他，聽從他的命令，主要是出於兄弟會從他們出生時就教給他們的忠誠教義。然而，忠誠也有其局限性，並最終導致里昂斯分會在其短暫歷史中發動戰爭的能力受到最毀滅性的打擊。[22]
分裂[]
- Main articles: Brotherhood Outcasts, Schism
部分騎士和聖騎士對里昂斯專注於保護廢土和它的人民感到不滿，認為這是對人力和資源的無效浪費，最終會摧毀兄弟會。局勢逐漸惡化，終於在2276年發生了轉折，[23]因為里昂斯長老無視了他們多次要求從獨立要塞(一個戰前科學軍事基地)恢復技術的請求。[24]集結在聖騎士亨利·卡斯丁身後，[25]反對者放棄了里昂斯的指揮，離開了大本營，帶走了大部分武器和裝備庫存。里昂斯在那一刻失去的士兵比他23年來與變種人作戰的士兵還多。[26][27]人員和物資的損失對里昂斯的戰鬥表現產生了重大的負面影響，因為遺棄者沒收了大量必要的裝備，未分類的回收物，隨之而來的備件短缺大大降低了里昂斯維持其戰役的能力。[25]
在卡斯丁的指揮下，流浪學士、騎士和聖騎士占領了獨立要塞，在那裡他們擊退了土著的掠奪者團體，並將這個前軍事基地改造成他們的主要總部。這些叛變的士兵被他們憤怒的前兄弟姐妹稱為「遺棄者」，他們用這個名字作為榮譽的象徵，[28]他們把自己的盔甲塗成紅色和黑色，以區別於他們不再相信的組織。在分裂一年後，遺棄者組織了一個定期巡邏系統，在廢土上搜尋技術，並開始挖掘幾個地點，包括虛擬戰略模擬設施，以完成最初的任務目標。他們計劃在加強他們的地位並擴張到獨立要塞之外之後，與西部的效忠者重新集結。[29]
作為長老，里昂斯審判了被遺棄者，並將他們的名字從法典中刪除。[30]他還通過了一項禁令，禁止在大本營提及他們的名字，拒絕討論他們或他們的命運。[26][27]值得注意的是，他對他們沒有惡意。他理解他們的嘲諷，尊重他們為兄弟會的目標所做的奉獻。[31]他始終拒絕討論他們的命運，也不考慮對他們發動戰爭，即使他的女兒，里昂斯鐵衛，正迫不及待地想消滅這些異教分子。[32]
拐點[]
塗鴉標記，用來表示前哨或路標
里昂斯的兄弟會進入2277年時，由於缺乏合格的戰鬥人員和嚴重耗盡的武器裝備庫存，他們的力量被削弱了。兄弟會在大本營之外的勢力已經縮小到以前的一小部分，只有少數幾個加強了防禦的前哨基地散布在哥倫比亞特區的大都市地區。[33]里昂斯的領導似乎失敗了，軍隊不斷減少，被重重生存威脅所困。[34]儘管兄弟會與西方斷絕了聯繫，但成員們還是從兄弟會的教義中得到了安慰:相信古人的技術和創造，相信他們能戰勝古人的恐懼，相信他們的兄弟，他們的長老，最重要的是，相信勝利:兄弟會繼續戰鬥，沒有投降的選擇。[35][36]里昂斯自己在他的部下面前裝出一副勇敢的樣子，但開始懷疑自己的領導能力，考慮把長老的衣缽傳給一個更有能力的領導人，他的女兒。[37]
他的個人魅力有助於將殘餘勢力團結在一起。雖然兄弟會繼續招募甚至徵召廢土人加入其隊伍，快速訓練他們，但他們經常被匆忙投入戰鬥。由於缺乏訓練和紀律，他們的流失率非常高，[38]導致兄弟會的精英們認為他們是無用的廢物。尤其是里昂斯鐵衛。[39]事實上，里昂斯鐵衛的精銳部隊里昂斯的驕傲在維持兄弟會防線的能力方面發揮了重要作用，每當兄弟會常規部隊需要額外火力時，他們就會趕來。[40]兄弟會盡了最大努力將變種人控制在華盛頓，遠離人類社區。[41]
兄弟會被迫在這種削弱的狀態下面對英克雷。他們曾經遺棄的淨化器被前首席研究員詹姆斯重新激活，並得到了他的孩子的幫助，這個孩子現在只被稱為獨行者。英克雷占領了淨化器，麥蒂森·黎博士帶著淨化器可以正常工作的信息來到了大本營，儘管之前的數據與此相反，這迫使里昂斯長老做出了決定。長老決定不允許英克雷極端分子控制廢土。[42][43]為此，他開始集結自己僅有的力量，準備對英克雷發動一場戰役，同時指派獨行者去取回淨水計劃的鑰匙: 來自87號避難所的伊甸園 創造套件。與此同時，麥蒂森·黎和羅斯查德學士著手設計一種讓自由至尊運行起來的方法。[44]
獨行者的任務沒有按計劃進行。英克雷在一段時間前成功潛入87號避難所，並俘獲了獨行者和G.E.C.K.[44]然而，由於總統伊登和上校奧特姆的分歧，獨行者逃出雷文岩，並在大本營與里昂斯的部隊重新集結。儘管只有勉強夠守衛大本營的人手，[45]里昂斯長老下令部署新激活的，應急[46]啟動自由至尊，成為為里昂斯的驕傲打通英克雷防線的大錘。阻止英克雷激活淨化器成了當時的命令。[47]
對抗[]
英克雷對這樣的攻擊毫無準備，無法擊敗自由至尊，尤其是當驕傲和獨行者在他身後掃蕩倖存者的時候。[48]先頭兵在淨水器周圍挖出了一條路，包括光子共振屏障，最後，莎拉·里昂斯和獨行者擊穿了剩下的防禦者，到達了控制室。輸入密碼後，淨水計劃被啟動，並立即開始淨化華盛頓特區的潮汐盆地。然而，啟動時產生的衝擊波使莎拉·里昂斯和獨行者陷入昏迷。[47]
兩周後，獨行者在大本營的醫務室中從昏迷中醒來，並被裡昂斯長老親自任命為兄弟會的騎士。在這十四天裡，廢土發生了變化。淨水器的失敗使飛英克雷剩餘的部隊陷入混亂，讓驕傲和其他里昂斯部隊在自由至尊的支持下，摧毀了廢土上的幾個關鍵設施，首先是雷文岩。[49]隨著它的失去，首都廢土的英克雷殘餘變得無組織和不協調，這使得仍然弱小的兄弟會更容易公開攻擊和擊潰他們，特別是在自由至尊的支持下。[50]
景觀的第二個主要變化是淨水商隊的出現。里昂斯長老決定向廢土上所有主要定居點提供水，完全免費。[51]里昂斯長老堅持免費提供水，這使得為這項行動尋找資源和資金變得極其困難。事實上，他們如此艱難，以至於他們迫使整個冒險的負責人比格斯利學士違背他的命令，賣水，以便能夠真正完成他被命令做的事情。[52][53]另一個問題是裝瓶水必須手工完成，因為兄弟會太專注於對英克雷技術進行逆向工程，而沒有設計出裝瓶機。[54]整個行動也因普遍缺乏資源和規劃而受到嚴重阻礙。[55][56]
但即使兄弟會逐漸占據上風，英克雷也很難被擊敗。他們誘使里昂斯和他的手下產生了一種虛假的安全感，最終把他們引到了廢土西部的衛星中繼站。在那裡，自由至尊被一次軌道炮襲擊完全摧毀，數十名英克雷士兵犧牲。[57]這完全扭轉了局勢，里昂斯的軍隊失去了他們在英克雷唯一的真正軍事優勢。[58][59]即使從羅蘭設施廢墟中恢復的加密數據也無法彌補。[60]
自由至尊的毀滅使兄弟會處於非常困難的境地，因為這消除了對英克雷唯一的重要軍事優勢。[58]里昂斯在與英克雷的衝突開始時幾乎沒有人力和資源，在失去自由至尊后，所有這些問題都浮出水面，正在進行的供水計劃加劇了這些問題。隨著資源被集中用於防禦英克雷，新加入的騎士獨行者奉命潛入奧爾尼發電廠，取回一個特斯拉線圈。[61]線圈是一個必要的技術奇蹟，羅斯柴爾德學士開始製造特斯拉加農，重型戰前能量武器，以縮小兄弟會和英克雷之間的技術差距。[62]
獨行者成功完成了任務，這使得羅斯柴爾德和學士們在快速逆向設計特斯拉線圈後開始組裝大炮。在這一點上，獨行者成為里昂斯最有能力的外勤特工，並被賦予了足夠重要的任務:根據在中繼站遭到不幸襲擊期間恢復的數據，兄弟會確定了英克雷派在亞當斯空軍基地廢墟中使用的第二個行動基地。獨行者奉命潛入基地，獨自一人摧毀英克雷的總部，而兄弟會的其他成員則分散了注意力，讓獨行者潛入而不被發現。[63][57]
獨行者又一次付出了巨大的努力，單兵潛入亞當斯空軍基地，摧毀了英克雷的移動基站，有效地摧毀了英克雷剩餘的指揮結構，第二次在東部擊毀了它(歷史上第三次)。[64][65]
最後的日子[]
在與英克雷的衝突之後，兄弟會享有穩定的地位，但並非無可匹敵。在衝突開始時，由於庫存嚴重枯竭和人力短缺，[33][34][35][36]在與英克雷的戰鬥中傷亡慘重，失去了他們最重要的軍事資產自由至尊，使未來變得不確定。兄弟會忙於對英克雷技術的研究，以及它所回收的裝備和武器的數量，慢慢地在長達數年的過程中恢復了力量。[66][67]兄弟會在這個時期最偉大的成就之一是開始建造普利德溫號，這是一艘裝甲飛艇，極大地提高了兄弟會的投射力量的能力。[68]
該分會遭遇的最大挫折是約2278年歐文·里昂斯長老的去世和同年晚些時候他的繼任者莎拉·里昂斯長老的去世。隨著權力的流失，剩下的兄弟會成員選出了許多無能的領導人，而少年扈從亞瑟·麥克森則成長為一名有能力的戰士和戰術家，最終在2282年戰勝了首都廢土超級變種人的新戰爭首領Shepherd。這一功績為他贏得了一個臨時領導職位。事實上，這個職位是西海岸長老們授予的，他們透露他們仍然在監視他們的誤入歧途的弟兄們。[1] 麥克森的地位在2283年得到鞏固，當時他與兄弟會流放者談判達成了一項條約，將他們重新納入陣營，並改革了整個組織，將里昂斯的教義與傳統教義中可挽救的元素結合起來。里昂斯的兄弟會成為了遙遠的記憶，麥克森帶領團結的兄弟會力量走向新方向。[1]雖然有些成員覺得這裡令人厭惡，人跡罕至,[69]還有更多的人留下來，為重新定位的兄弟會服務而自豪。[70]
主要哨所和地點[]
東海岸兄弟會是一個主要的軍事力量，擁有大量的物資、人力、尖端技術和各個領域的科學研究，使他們能夠在整個東海岸投射力量和影響力。他們在廢土上有許多據點和基地，包括下面這些:
大本營[]
大本營是東海岸兄弟會的堡壘。這個庭院建在五角大樓的廢墟中，是用來訓練新兵的，他們由甘尼聖騎士訓練。從那裡，人們可以去要塞實驗室，在那裡，學士單調地在他們的職責之間進行多項任務(劍，盾，或羽毛筆)和羅斯柴爾德首席文士的一項特殊任務;更確切地說，自由至尊。貝爾聖騎士負責要塞外面的安全，而柯爾文騎士隊長 (藉助於莎拉·里昂斯)負責要塞內部的安全。圍繞著自由至尊中心區域的是a區和b區。兄弟會的會議室位於a區(被稱為大會堂)，在那裡他們要麼計劃未來的行動，要麼指揮外勤部隊。有兩條小通道與大會堂相連，用於儲藏，既存放食物又存放雜項物品。最北的房間被稱為"里昂斯活動室"，它是僅為里昂斯的驕傲成員保留的休息和補給。最南端的房間是保留羽毛筆團和所有與東海岸兄弟會有關的歷史記錄，麥克森血統，首都廢土的避難所，以及戰前的五角大樓。
銀河新聞電台[]
2277年，當歐文·里昂斯還是長老的時候，兄弟會在華盛頓特區中心的新聞廣播電台銀河新聞電台有很大的影響力。它在戰術和戰略上都很重要，因為它是位於華盛頓特區廢墟中間的一個可防禦的位置，而且與工作室的DJ三狗有相互關係。
華盛頓紀念堂[]
同樣是在2277年，一個由五名士兵組成的兄弟會小分隊駐紮在這裡保衛紀念碑，紀念堂上面有銀河新聞的衛星。不幸的是，由於這一地區的混亂(在林肯紀念堂奴隸販子，鷹爪組織，超級變種人和英克雷在爭奪國會大廈的三邊戰鬥中，超級變種人在國家檔案館和兄弟會在向林肯紀念堂發起進攻後建立的具有諷刺意義的眾多掩體中有立錐之地)，傷亡人數很高，衛星天線經常被撞掉，這導致那裡的軍隊只是一遍又一遍地使用同一個天線。在一次這樣的事件後，這個天線無法修復，這導致了另一次徒勞的追逐。
賓夕法尼亞大道[]
兄弟會在白宮的核遺蹟附近有一個小的休息和補給區，他們在一個廢棄的酒店裡安家，由於超級變種人不斷地進攻這個地方，他們很少睡覺。
阿靈頓圖書館[]
兄弟會主要在阿靈頓圖書館(正式名稱是國會圖書館)，在2277年，里昂斯長老讓伊爾琳學士尋找完整的戰前書籍來添加到他們的收藏中。他們還試圖消滅那些在圖書館加強自身防禦的掠奪者，這些掠奪者已經成為試圖搶救圖書館書籍或任何有用東西的士兵的煩惱。
淨水計劃[]
在與英克雷的戰爭接近結束後，兄弟會在被稱為淨水計劃的科學綜合設施中建立了一個立足點，該科學綜合設施位於傑斐遜紀念堂的地下。兄弟會僱傭了鉚釘城的安全部門來幫助他們運輸水，並保護計劃。
亞當斯空軍基地[]
在英克雷的移動基站被摧毀後，兄弟會在亞當斯建立了一個永久的大本營，試圖從殘骸中收集他們能收集到的東西來建造普利德溫號。亞瑟·麥克森將所有資源用於建造普利德溫號。六年後，這艘巨大的飛艇被建造出來，並在首都廢土上作為一個移動指揮基地服役了五年，然後才啟程前往聯邦。
組織[]
一隊聖騎士在五角大樓河流入口正面的露台上巡邏
里昂斯的鋼鐵兄弟會是兄弟會的一個流浪分會，保留了他們的母組織的大部分習俗，只有一些小的調整。作為最初，它本質上是一個技術宗教，偽騎士的軍事秩序，由一位長老歐文·里昂斯領導。長老對組織和它的每一個方面都有完全的控制，從概述總體目標，到分配每個成員的職責。與最初的兄弟會不同，里昂斯的分會將騎士和聖騎士合二為一，[71]他們的職責集中在戰鬥上。另一方面，學士的任務是研究，以及技術的製造。劍騎士團、盾騎士團和羽毛騎士團的劃分被保留。[72]
軍事細節[]
另見： 鋼鐵兄弟會等級制度
在戰場上，兄弟會採用小隊制，運用適當的軍事戰術，保持嚴格的等級制度。由於缺乏無線電設備，大多數單位都是獨立的單元，沒有固定命令，有時幾周或幾個月都不向大本營報告。[73][74]兄弟會軍事部門的成員可以分為三個明顯的群體:
- 新兵是出生在兄弟會或當地誌願者招募成為成員。然而在最近幾年，這已經成為一個問題，許多提升者缺乏適當的訓練而被匆忙投入戰鬥。不幸的是，這些是兄弟會地面部隊人數最多的成員。[75]
- 騎士和騎士長以及在兄弟會中服役並成為正式成員的成員。他們是主要的骨幹，不像新兵那樣常見，但卻是更好的戰士。
- 聖騎士是兄弟會的老兵，許多人是里昂斯長老最初來到華盛頓特區的成員。他們是兄弟會中最優秀的成員之一，通常是高級戰地指揮官或在精英突擊隊中使用。里昂斯鐵衛是最高級別的戰地指揮官，直接回應里昂斯長老，她領導里昂斯的驕傲，首都廢土鋼鐵兄弟會的最好的士兵，全在一個小隊內。
廢土人可以被該組織接納為新兵，條件是他們必須由一名現有的信譽良好的兄弟會成員擔保。[76]在2276年和兄弟會流放者的形成之後，兄弟會已經枯竭的隊伍不得不在不需要擔保的情況下，在當地招募新兵。[23]然而，那些被徵召到里昂斯服務的人的質量非常低，因為他們過於渴望、好鬥和缺乏技能。[75]
外部關係[]
聖騎士在Falls Church與超級變種人交戰
2277年之前，兄弟會在廢土上更為活躍。幫助保護了核彈鎮[77]和淨水計劃的建設，直到里昂斯長老認為這是徒勞的努力。
到2277年，兄弟會與外界的關係非常有限。要塞本身是禁止外人進入的，里昂斯長老放棄了幾乎所有的軍事行動，除了在華盛頓特區的廢墟中獵殺超級變種人(這一事實被兄弟會流放者嘲笑為毫無意義的白鯨狩獵)。[78]它與外界的貿易仍然有限，主要是供應方面的貿易。
兄弟會對屍鬼幾乎沒有容忍度，他們一看到屍鬼就開槍，要麼把他們誤認為超級變種人，要麼根本不關心他們之間的差異。[79]
在英克雷重新出現在廢土之後，兄弟會再次在廢土上變得更加活躍，他們用自己控制的淨水器建立了送水車隊，並在淨水計劃之戰和烏鴉岩失利後領導入侵混亂的英克雷部隊。
科技[]
在大本營檔案館工作的學士
里昂斯兄弟會的技術水平各不相同。在2276年的分裂之後，該分會失去了大量的武器、裝備，最重要的是人員，從2277年開始，力量大大削弱。[33][34][35][36]供應的短缺也意味著在維護武器、裝甲、裝備，特別是任何潛在的研究方面的困難。[26]儘管人數減少了，他們並沒有停止研究新技術，[80]並修改目前的設計，包括升級動力裝甲，儘管部分短缺。[81][82]
然而，兄弟會確實有充足的T-45動力裝甲，這是任何在戰場上操作的人員的標準裝備，甚至是新兵。然而，由於里昂斯的組織中有大量未經訓練的新兵，兄弟會的裝備損失非常快，因為廢土上每死一個新人，就意味著少一套裝甲和一套裝備。他們的主要武器是R91或93式突擊步槍，AER9雷射步槍，或CZ53個人旋轉機槍。[83]
與對抗超級變種人的戰役不同，對抗英克雷的戰役和最終的勝利為兄弟會提供了新的先進技術，包括從死去的士兵和英克雷武器中清理出來的變體高級動力裝甲。雖然逆向工程程序正在進行中，但可能需要數年時間才能完全理解、研究和從廢土上的各種基地殘骸中回收該技術。[66][67]然而，這是以失去自由至尊為代價的，這是兄弟會唯一真正獨特的戰爭資產。直到2287年，兄弟會才在新管理層的領導下重建。[84]
儘管該組織擁有先進的軍事技術，但卻無法使用無線電通信，迫使其部隊依靠信使和通訊員保持聯繫。這種情況也導致捲軸的更新能力受到極大限制。[85][74]
註釋[]
- 東海岸兄弟會是目前唯一被提及擁有有效空中部隊的分會/分部。雖然在過去有像普利德溫號這樣的飛艇被建造來探索東方，但直到輻射4之前，兄弟會還沒有在遊戲中展示或提到過垂直飛行機的戰鬥力量。
- 聖騎士丹斯會提到兄弟會在首都廢土外附近的位置佔領了一座採石場，並認為那"得不償失"。[86]
- 如果獨存者選擇消滅阿卡迪亞的合成人，鋼鐵兄弟會將在荒島山建立據點，將阿卡迪亞作為前進作戰基地。
- 完成戰利品後，兄弟會將使用麻州核融合廠大樓作為前哨，大多數士兵會說，這座建築是一個技術的「金礦」，學士仍在搜索這座建築。
- 戰無不勝結束後，兄弟會會將控制散布在聯邦各地的戰前軍事檢查站。
- 到2287年，兄弟會似乎使用了一種新的旗幟，它有一個橙色的背景和白色的兄弟會標誌。
- 在普利德溫號上的鋼鐵騎士兄弟會可以直接提到首都廢土，說"如果你認為聯邦不好，你應該去看看首都廢土。"
登場[]
鋼鐵兄弟會出現在輻射3中。
幕後[]
- 東海岸鋼鐵兄弟會與其他輻射遊戲有一些相似之處和不同之處:
- Emil Pagliarulo在鋼鐵兄弟會上寫了一個遊戲外的文本來源，一個派系簡介博客。
開發者引述[]
“在輻射3，鋼鐵兄弟會，他們就像一個分支。他們比以前的遊戲裡的更高貴，我們知道這一點，因為我們知道我們的玩家會想要這樣，期待這樣。所以我們有了兄弟會流放者，他們更像老派的鋼鐵兄弟會，強硬派。里昂斯長老和首都廢土中的那些，他們就像一個分支群體，他們並沒有真正與主要群體聯繫在一起。所以這是一個很難平衡的事情，而在輻射4中，他們更像強硬派的立場，有點接近他們在1和2中的立場。”— Emil Pagliarulo,pixel.tv

That was our greatest find. Damn thing still doesn't work, but at least it's ours. But those damned Super Mutants... They changed things. Lyons changed. He decided they were a threat. Not just to us, but to everyone. And so he altered the mission. Finding the source of the mutants and putting a stop to them was his goal. Our original mission became an afterthought. We've failed both."
(Reginald Rothchild's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Why are you here in the Capital Wasteland?"
Owyn Lyons: "Our orders were, and are, to acquire any and all advanced technology. And we have, to the best of our abilities. But when I realized the extent of the Super Mutant threat, I felt it was my responsibility to aid the people in their struggle against them. Unfortunately, my superiors back west disagree with my assessment of the situation. They feel I've grown too "attached" to the local populace. And they're right." In any event, the Enclave's arrival changes everything..."
(Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "How long have you been here?"
Reginald Rothchild: "We arrived here in '55. Established ourselves in the Citadel within the first few months. The Elder has kept us busy since then."

Kodiak:"As they swept through, the Brotherhood policed up every non-mutie child they could find. Turns out, there weren't that many. Me and maybe twenty others. The younger we were, the less of a chance that we were mutated. It was ugly work, no doubt, but it had to be done. I'll never forget the sight of the Brotherhood of Steel breaching the breast of the mountain at dawn."
(Kodiak's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What happened to the other kids from the Pitt?"
Kodiak: "All of 'em became Initiates. Most of them went on to become Brothers. A lot fell in action. I'm the only survivor of the Scourge of the Pitt still stationed at the Citadel."
(Kodiak's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "How long have you been here?"
Owyn Lyons: "It's been over twenty years since we arrived. And we've been struggling to contain and eradicate the Super Mutants for nearly as long. With the arrival of the Enclave, I have a terrible feeling the Super Mutants are the least of our worries."
(Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ Lone Wanderer's birth
- ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What about the Brotherhood's history in this area?"
Elizabeth Jameson: "We first arrived in the Capital Wasteland in 2255. In those first couple of years, we discovered the Citadel, Super Mutants, and Project Purity! Ah, the purifier. What an undertaking. The work your father and his team did was... amazing. The Brotherhood helped protect them, you know. At least for a little while. But we were stretched thin as it was, even back then. We had to pull our forces out. When we did, the place was overrun. I imagine that's when your father left. I... I'm sorry, I wish things had turned out differently."
(Elizabeth Jameson's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "You knew my father?"
Cross: "I did. And you as well! Long ago, I helped guard the water purifier against the Super Mutant horde. When your father left, I escorted the two of you to Megaton. He was... a noble man. I was saddened to hear of his passing. But from what I've heard, he died with honor. He died for you. I only pray that my own death has such meaning."
The Lone Wanderer: "Why does it matter how a man dies? Death is death."
Cross: "True. And in the end, death claims us all. But how we die can say just as much about our lives as how we lived. Your father died for what he knew to be right, and he died protecting those closest to him. This is a good man's death. But, I must ask you a difficult question, if I have your leave to do so."
(Cross' dialogue) - ↑ Danse: "Would it be possible to speak... off the record for a moment?"
The Sole Survivor: ""Off the record?" That's not like you, Danse."
Danse: "Which is why this is going to be difficult to say, so I'd appreciate it if you bear with me. When you were first placed under my sponsorship, I had some serious reservations about it. Despite all that, this has turned out to be a rewarding experience... for both of us. At this point, honestly, I don't feel like there's anything else I could teach you about being a Brotherhood soldier that you don't already know. It's apparent from your attitude and your actions that you intend to keep those ideals close to your heart."
The Sole Survivor: "You're beating around the bush. Is there something you're trying to tell me?"
Danse: "Is it that obvious? I've... never been very good at these things. Let me start at the beginning. I grew up alone in the Capital Wasteland. Spent most of my childhood picking through the ruins and selling scrap. When I was a bit older, and had a few caps to my name, I moved into Rivet City and opened a junk stand. While I was there, I met a guy named Cutler. We got along pretty well, watched each other's backs and kept each other out of trouble. When the Brotherhood came through on a recruiting run, we felt like it was the best way out of our nowhere lives, so we joined up."
(Danse's dialogue) - ↑ The Courier: "I'm amazed you're still alive."
Three Dog: "Oh I have plenty of enemies that would love nothing more than to put a bullet between my eyes. The only thing keeping that from happening is Sarah Lyons and the Brotherhood of Steel. We've brokered a sweet deal. They keep me from taking a dirt nap, and I keep a strong roof over their head."
(Three Dog's dialogue) - ↑ Lone Wanderer: "Why did they build the walls?"
Manya Vargas: "Well, the Raiders, for one. Once the town got big enough, they'd wait until the traders and their guards were away, then come in and clean us out! Now the Super Mutants... They were a whole other breed of problem. They'd kill us if they had to, but mostly they tried to drag people away! Alive! So, eventually, my father did something about it. Him and a few others organized the traders and the citizens and built the walls. So we're pretty safe now. Still, I wish those Brotherhood of Steel fellers hadn't hit on such hard times. They really helped keep the wolves at bay."
(Manya.txt) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "You make saving people sound like a bad thing."
Reginald Rothchild: "It wasn't why we were sent here. Good or bad has nothing to do with it. Lyons knew that, but ignored it. He decided it was more important to save the people here than to obey orders from his superiors. For years he'd try and persuade them to send reinforcements and supplies, all the while stringing them along, saying he was sticking to the mission. Finally, things came to a head. Lyons directly refused orders, and so the West Coast cut us off. No communications, no reinforcements."
The Lone Wanderer: "Why, what happened?"
Reginald Rothchild: "Lines of communication were severed years ago. The Western Elders have washed their hands of us."
(Reginald Rothchild's dialogue) - ↑ Lone Wanderer: "Like I needed your help. Please. "<
Sarah Lyons: "Kid, out here cocky will get you killed. I've seen a Super Mutant strike squad like that take down five well armed soldiers. But fine, next time you want to take them on yourself and buy yourself an early retirement, go right ahead."
(Sarah Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What do you mean by "repercussions"?"
Reginald Rothchild: "Some did not approve of the Elder's decisions. Initially, they followed because we are all taught to follow the Elders."
(Reginald Rothchild's dialogue) - ↑ 23.0 23.1 The Lone Wanderer: "Tell me more about the Outcasts."
Bowditch: "It's a rather sad story, I'm afraid. Last year, some of our soldiers had grave disagreements with the decisions of Elder Lyons. Disagreements spiraled out of control, and there was a schism in the ranks. The loyal soldiers practically threw out the dissenters. Now they call themselves the Outcasts."
(Bowditch's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What sort of disagreements did they have?"
Bowditch: "Where Elder Lyons has fought to protect the people of the Capital Wasteland, the Outcasts demanded we move on and leave them to their fates. They insisted there was more important technology to be recovered in a scientific base in the ruins of Fort Independence, to the West. As callous as their decision may be, it's more in line with our original mission. Elder Lyons is an inspiration to us, but to them he's a traitor."
(Bowditch's dialogue) - ↑ 25.0 25.1 The Lone Wanderer: "Who were the exiles?"
Bowditch: "The soldiers rallied behind Paladin Casdin, who was one of Elder Lyons' original squad. They served together for over twenty years. Casdin was well-respected, and every bit as loyal to the Brotherhood as Elder Lyons. He just disagreed with the interpretations of our oaths. But when disagreements turned into fistfights, he left with the Outcasts. We lost more allies that day than we ever have to any battle."
(Bowditch's dialogue) - ↑ 26.0 26.1 26.2 Peabody: "Good morning, Elder. I'm sorry to report that things are not as they should be. Ever since Casdin was outcast..."
Owyn Lyons: "That name is not to be spoken within this Citadel. Do you understand? I wish it were not so, truly I do, but he is Outcast. He has been judged."
Peabody: "I know the protocols, sir. But the equipment that they stole was very valuable. Our weapons are beginning to deteriorate without the spare parts."
Owyn Lyons: "I understand, Peabody. But you'll need to make do the best you can. If our weapons can't penetrate that Enclave armor, we stand no chance."
Peabody: "Yes, Elder. I understand. I'm sure... we've got the parts around here somewhere..."

Owyn Lyons: "Scribe. You are not to speak the name of an Outcast in the walls of the Citadel. Is that understood?"
Peabody: "I... I understand, sir. But the Outcasts have stolen a great deal of our uncatalogued equipment. I am beginning to run short of supplies for repairs."
Owyn Lyons: "Then make do with what you have. We may lack the Enclave's resources, but I'm counting on your ingenuity to make up for that!"
Peabody: "Yes, Elder. I understand. Forgive me for speaking out of turn. My... frustration got the better of me."
(Peabody's and Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "So, you just figure you'll strike out on your own as Outcasts?"
Anne Marie Morgan:"Not hardly. We've got our mission, we'll stick with it, and to hell with Lyons and his soldier sycophants. If they call us Outcasts for our dedication to duty, then we'll wear the title with pride! And you just wait for when we get back in contact with the real Brotherhood out West. Lyons will have hell to pay."
(Anne Marie Morgan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Tell me about the Outcasts."
Anne Marie Morgan: "We collect technology, and most people want what we've collected. Right now, we're pretty much stuck defending this Fort, but that won't be forever. Once we regroup, we'll continue our work and keep moving back west."
(Anne Marie Morgan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Tell me more about the Outcasts."
Henry Casdin: "We were cast out for our dedication to the Brotherhood's true goals. Lyons wanted to play hero to the locals, instead of doing his job. We were proud to leave him, so we kept the name "Outcasts" and wear it with pride. A big "fuck you" to the old man. He may have struck our names from the great Codex, but we'll be vindicated in the end, and our names will be restored."
(Henry Casdin's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Can you tell me about the Outcasts?"
Owyn Lyons: "The Outcasts are a result of my greatest mistake. But a mistake I'm proud of, nonetheless. When I came here, I realized for the first time that the Brotherhood's technology could truly save the survivors in this Wasteland. I chose to help them, even if it meant putting the Brotherhood's interests at risk. Some of my soldiers called me a hero. Others called me a traitor. The dissenters left my command, calling themselves Outcasts to mock me. I cannot fault their dedication, even if I find them lacking in compassion."

Owyn Lyons: "Would you believe... "no"? It's pathetic, really, considering we've been fighting those abominations for nearly twenty years. In all that time, all we've managed to do is contain the threat. Hold them back, so they don't overrun every blasted settlement out here. But we don't really "know" anything. Where they're from, why they've infested the D.C. ruins. And now here we are, holed up in our Citadel. Low on resources, low on troops. It's enough to make an old man so very... tired."

I appreciate that Lyons believes he is doing what is right, but he should never have disobeyed orders. And now look where it's gotten us.

Most of my best friends have either been ripped apart by Super Mutants or left to join the Outcasts. And now an enemy we faced more than thirty years ago has resurfaced, and their tech is still better than ours. What's been going on with you?"

The Western Elders cease to acknowledge my existence. Some of my own people have even gone Outcast. And now... the Enclave. Technologically superior. Infinitely resourceful. The time has come to pass the mantle to more able hands. But is she ready?"

Madison Li: "Then do something now! They've taken over the purifier. Lyons, they cannot be permitted to have control over it. It's not right!"

Madison Li: "No, I don't think... I don't know. I just don't know what's happening anymore."

- ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What happened back at the purifier?"
Tristan: "Well, you saw most of the fighting outside. The robot paved the way for us, we just mopped up the opposition while you and Sarah headed inside. After that... Hell if I know. Once we'd locked down the perimeter, and gotten word that the purifier was running, we headed in to look for you. Found you and Sarah both unconscious, and got you back to the Citadel fast as we could."
(Tristan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What else can you tell me about the fight against the Enclave?"
Owyn Lyons: "As you know, I had my reservations about engaging the Enclave. They did not directly attack us, and I believed we had time. Time to be cautious. Their assault on the purifier forced our hand. We had no choice but to engage them directly. And, once that engagement had begun, we could do nothing but see it through to the end. If they had not considered us a threat before, they do now. So we have spent the time since you and I last spoke systematically locating and destroying every bastion of Enclave force we can. Liberty Prime has proven far more successful than any of us could have hoped for."
(Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Has the Enclave been putting up much of a fight?"
Tristan: "Not like they did at the purifier, no. After we secured Project Purity, Liberty Prime was unleashed on their headquarters. It was a quick fight. Since then, their operations have been severely disrupted. We're trying to use that to our advantage -- we keep hitting them while they're down. We can't give them a moment to breathe safely, or else they might pose more of a threat to us in the long run."

Bigsley: "You take a bottle, you dunk it under water, and glug glug glug, it fills up. Amazing. But you're right a machine would help. But all the Scribes are busy reverse engineering Enclave gear. A machine that puts water in bottles just isn't on anyone's priority list at the moment."

Bigsley: "Everyone was so excited about that Purifier: "Project Purity this," and "Project Purity that." But did anyone stop to ask, "Hey, what are we going to DO with all that clean water?" Well, guess who gets to fill in that tiny detail. It'd be one thing if I had support, but that little war with the Enclave has depleted much of the Brotherhood's resources. And to top it off, I have to be mommy to a bunch of lab coats."

Bigsley: "Right. I heard about your dad. Sorry kid. I don't mean to sound unsympathetic, really. But, if you understood the pressure... You know the Wasteland. Imagine trying to get fresh water to every known settlement, without getting it stolen by Raiders or Mutants. Now imagine doing that without any trained soldiers or military resources because they've all been exhausted fighting a little war with the Enclave. Yeah. That's MY job.

If you'll excuse me..."
(Reginald Rothchild's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "I'm ready for more. What do you need?"
Tristan: "With the setbacks the Brotherhood has suffered, we find ourselves in a difficult position. All our available resources need to be positioned for the inevitable counter-attack from the Enclave. At the same time, we believe we may have developed a tool to help our chances of victory. But with everyone needed to help defend against the Enclave, we have no one to send on a recovery mission. So I'm going to have you travel to the Olney Powerworks to secure some tech for us."
(Tristan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Any job you've got, I can do."
Tristan: "I hope that's true. With all of the Brotherhood's resources committed to protecting against an Enclave attack, we're spread thin. So thin that we can't spare anyone to research a new weapon that might help us against the Enclave's vertibirds. At least, until now. From information we've gathered, it seems what we need may be located in the Olney Powerworks, north of that city.""
The Lone Wanderer: "Olney Powerworks? What's there?"
Tristan: "Hopefully you'll be able to find a Tesla Coil, an experimental device from before the war. Our scribes need it to complete a little surprise they've been preparing for the Enclave. Get there, get the coil, and get back as safely and quickly as possible. Any questions?"
(Tristan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "I'm good to go. What's next?"
Tristan: "Based on the data you brought us from the relay station, we've identified where the Enclave is basing their operation. It seems they have a second base of operations at Adams Air Force base, outside of DC. The only safe way to get there is through the Presidential Metro used by the government before the war. You're going to be on your own again for now; the rest of the Brotherhood will be providing a distraction so you can slip in undetected. Once you breach the Presidential Metro and get to Adams Air Force Base, look for the Resupply Crate.

Elizabeth Jameson: "Good. As I'm sure you've noticed, the Brotherhood operates all over the DC ruins, often detached from the main base here at the Citadel. We're short on communication equipment, so many of the groups in the field operate as independent cells without standing orders. Sometimes... I'm afraid that their missions end in their deaths. As keeper of the Scrolls, it's my charge to write of each fallen Brother's deeds."
(Elizabeth Jameson's dialogue) - ↑ 75.0 75.1 The Lone Wanderer: "So, you guys looking for new recruits?"
Sarah Lyons: "That's a negative. We've got too many local conscripts as it is. Most are undertrained and too damned trigger happy for their own good. Our very own Initiate Reddin is a sterling example."
(Sarah Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ Danse: "When I was an Initiate, my sponsor was Paladin Krieg. Toughest squad leader I ever served with. He was a model soldier, embodying the values every trainee was striving to achieve. Fiercely loyal, secure in his beliefs and brave to a fault. From the moment I was assigned to his squad I was singled out... it felt like he was pushing me harder than the rest of the team. I fought by his side for years and we had some seriously close calls, but he never explained to me why I was treated that way."
- ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Why did they build the walls?"
Manya Vargas: "Well, the Raiders, for one. Once the town got big enough, they'd wait until the traders and their guards were away, then come in and clean us out! Now the Super Mutants... They were a whole other breed of problem. They'd kill us if they had to, but mostly they tried to drag people away! Alive! So, eventually, my father did something about it. Him and a few others organized the traders and the citizens and built the walls. So we're pretty safe now. Still, I wish those Brotherhood of Steel fellers hadn't hit on such hard times. They really helped keep the wolves at bay."
(Manya Vargas' dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "What have you got against the Brotherhood?"
Anne Marie Morgan: "You mean, apart from the fact that they ditched their mission and went native? Sure, I bet you don't mind them being cuddly with the locals, but when we came out here, we had a mission to do, damnit. But now they're wasting their time protecting yahoos like you, while Ahab Lyons is off chasing his Super Mutant white whale."
The Lone Wanderer: "By that analogy, you think Lyons will be killed by the Super Mutants?"
Anne Marie Morgan: "Huh. And here I thought we had the only remaining copy of that... Anyway, I don't know if the old man's going to die from them, but he sure as hell looks like he's going to drag his soldiers down with him. But he's not wasting any of our time anymore, damnit."
(Anne Marie Morgan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "The Brotherhood of Steel? What's your beef with them?"
Winthrop: "Bastards. They don't seem to be able to tell us apart from the Super Mutants. Or, maybe they just don't care. They see us and shoot on sight. And least they have the common courtesy to miss most of the time. Still... bigots."
(Winthrop's dialogue) - ↑ Owyn Lyons: "Scribe Bowditch, I trust you are well. I'm here for your progress report on the modified Recon Armor."
Bowditch: "Ah... you're a bit early today, sir. Regardless, I'm happy to report that the development of the Mark II Recon Armor unit is proceeding as planned."
Owyn Lyons: "I'm pleased to hear that. Do you anticipate any setbacks? Last month's progress was, well... let's call it "underwhelming.""
Bowditch: "There may be a slight delay in the enhancement of the ambulatory gyroscope. A few of the parts I need were lost in the recent... inventory reduction."
Owyn Lyons: "You'll make do, Bowditch. You always do."
Bowditch: "Thank you, sir. I appreciate it."
(Bowditch's and Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ Owyn Lyons: "Scribe Bowditch. I'd like to hear your report on those latest armor modifications."
Bowditch: "You're a bit late today, sir. I was afraid that you weren't coming. As per my report that I forwarded to you, the development is on schedule."
Owyn Lyons: "Excellent. I'm a bit concerned, though. Last week, you mentioned a possible delay in the secondary modifications?"
Bowditch: "I'm afraid that there may be a delay, sir. So far, I haven't been able to salvage a fellulator unit from the parts that we have on hand."
Owyn Lyons: "We have shortages all around, my friend. Make do the best you can. We may not have the Enclave's resources... but we do have you."
Bowditch: "Yes, sir. Actually, perhaps I can fashion one out of... hrm... if you'll excuse me, sir. I have to jot something down before I forget."
(Bowditch's and Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ Idle Citadel conversation: "Tell you what. Let's hook up later and go see Scribe Bowditch. I heard he's been working on some new Power Armor mods. Can't hurt."
- ↑ 輻射3開始。
- ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "How's the reconstruction of Liberty Prime going?"
Vallincourt: "Don't even get me started... Trying to decipher Rothchild's schematics and wiring diagrams is exhausting. But we'll get there. Like Rothchild says, "Liberty Prime will walk again!" I believe him, but I think it's going to take a really long time."
(Vallincourt's dialogue) Prime was built by a pre-War consortium with access to limitless resources, not a small band of scavengers. - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "And without radio equipment, you can't keep track of them?"
Elizabeth Jameson: "Exactly. A Brother fallen in the field may have no one to carry word of his death back to me. In calmer times, we could send detachments and messengers to learn their fates, but with our manpower stretched thin, we have no such luxury. Which is why I must now ask you for your help. Each Brother wears a Holotag like the one you found. Should you find any of the fallen Brethren in the field, I ask that you return their tags to me, so that I might record their deeds in the scrolls."
(Elizabeth Jameson's dialogue) - ↑ Danse's dialogue: "The Brotherhood tried to run a quarry like this somewhere near the Capital Wasteland. It was more trouble than it was worth."

"Pitt Raiders
Pitt Slaves
Trogs
Wildmen
Following the Great War, survivors established a settlement on the remains of a city at the confluence of rivers. The rivers seem to provide a clear resource, and enough of the city was cleared by the bombs that a new settlement could be established. However, radioactive material and unidentified mutagens mixed into the groundwater, causing it to become slightly mutagenic and highly carcinogenic. As a result, the people in the new settlement began to change ever so slightly.
The changes were subtle, not nearly to the degree of the Super Mutants or the various Wasteland creatures, but over the next 140 years, it became undeniable that something was affecting the people of The Pitt. Starting from the first few years, children were often born with strange growths or extra vestigial limbs. The mutations never went far beyond the occasional hunchback or cleft palate, but it wasn't long before the vast majority of the residents of The Pitt developed some sort of physical deformity in their lifetimes. Although many children were born "clean," the older they got, the more likely that a problem would develop.
The most disturbing change that the environment caused was not nearly as noticeable as the physical deformities. The infected water and poisoned sky began to cause neurological damage to those exposed to it. People became more hostile, violent, and short-tempered; they became known as "Wildmen." Their emotions became out of control, and their actions often teetered on primal. In severe cases, mutated humans devolved into hunched, savage beasts nicknamed "Trogs." Over the first 50 years, The Pitt quickly degenerated into a dangerous den of murderers and rapists; even cannibalism was not uncommon. The only loyalty was in strength, and the only organization was between those who were strong enough to control others and those who were controlled.
Rumors of the horrors of The Pitt spread throughout the Wasteland, and all travelers knew to avoid it at all costs. However, The Pitt became one of the most self-sufficient communities in the Wastes. Granted, their self-sufficiency relied on the citizens occasionally eating one another, but they functioned without trade or export.
In 2042
, Star Paladin Lyons of the Brotherhood of Steel led the Scourge, a large-scale military action that wiped out nearly the entire population of The Pitt. In a single night, the Brotherhood swept through the city, eliminating any resident who put up a fight. Although the intent of the Scourge remains unclear, several unmutated children were taken from The Pitt by the Brotherhood and placed into initiate training. The motivations for the Scourge are unclear to this day, but many in the Brotherhood note that it was a marked change in the way the Brotherhood operates. Additionally, it is known that something was recovered from The Pitt during the Scourge, although to date it would seem that only Elder Lyons knows what it was.
It is said that a Brotherhood of Steel Paladin from the Scourge stayed on in The Pitt, seeking to bring law and order to the unwashed masses and creating an underclass of Pitt Slaves in the process, guarded by Pitt Raiders under his personal command. However, in the decades following the events of the Scourge, nobody has heard anything from The Pitt. Travelers who have gone to investigate have not returned, and no survivors have emerged."
