“我们的任务是获得所有先进技术。我们已经尽了最大的努力。不幸的是，我在西部的上级不同意我对形势的评估。他们觉得我太"依恋"当地民众了。”— 歐文·里昂斯
里昂斯的钢铁兄弟会（英文名：Lyons' Brotherhood of Steel），也被称为"首都废土支队"，是鋼鐵兄弟會在华盛顿特区的一个分部[2][3]该分会总部位于大本營，最初是一支由歐文·里昂斯长老领导的远征军，于2250年代抵达首都废土，随后在接下来的几年里与更广泛的兄弟会分道扬镳。
这个新秩序引起了强硬派成员的分裂，使他们脱离了兄弟会，组成了兄弟會流放者。遵循了兄弟会信仰的一个独特版本，被称为“里昂斯主义”，强调对外人的慈善。[4]里昂斯死后，该组织的领导层发生了多次变动，最终由年轻的亚瑟·麦克森接任，他让流放者重新回归，并废除了里昂斯主义，将该分会改革为兄弟会的一个新分部。

歷史[]
主页面: 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，其主要目标是:从东海岸的城市和基地收回所有先进的技术。[6][7][8]特遣队由圣骑士歐文·里昂斯指挥，随行的还有技术学士雷金纳德·罗斯柴尔德，他是歐文的私人朋友，以及几个兄弟会的资深成员，包括圣骑士亨利·卡斯丁，伊斯梅尔·阿什尔和崔斯坦。
里昂斯的团队终于在2255年到达了首都废土，并在最初的几个月里在五角大楼内建立了一个行动基地。[9]尽管五角大楼大部分都被摧毁了，但它的下层大部分都完好无损，其幸存的库存包含了未受干扰的战前技术和武器，以维持他们的行动。王冠上的宝石是自由至尊，[7]这是一个技术奇迹，如果得以修复，可能会帮助钢铁兄弟会重建多年来稳步下降的实力和声誉。
自由至尊的发现为里昂斯圣骑士赢得了南加州上级的新指令——在首都废土建立一个新的永久的兄弟会基地，并继续寻找隐藏在前首都废墟中的其他先进技术。[10]
扫荡匹兹堡[]
主页面: The Scourge
兄弟会的第一个袭击目标是宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡。星圣骑士里昂斯在侦察了这座城市后，被掠夺者、变种人和人蛙所困扰，下令对城市进行大清洗。一夜之间，他的军队席卷了整个城市，消灭了所有反抗的人，并洗劫了所有有价值的东西。一件有价值的物品也被找到了，但只有里昂斯知道是什么。所有认识里昂斯的人都注意到，在祸害屠杀了整座城市之后，兄弟会的运作模式发生了重大转变。[Non-game 1]里昂斯的部队还带走了大约二十名未变异的孩子，他们将加入兄弟会，并以优异的表现服役。[11]大多数人以兄弟的身份继续他们的事业，许多人在战斗中牺牲，直到2277年，只有一个人留在了要塞: 格雷格·贝尔，代号科迪亚克，驻扎在里昂斯的骄傲。[12]
在祸害期间里昂斯的军队只伤亡一人: 伊斯梅尔·阿什尔在战斗中被埋在废墟中，估计已经死亡。然而，阿什尔幸存下来，并建立了对匹兹堡的牢固控制，将其转变为一个工业强国，得到兄弟会技术诀窍的支持。与此同时，他抛弃了兄弟会及其教义，认识到兄弟会那种不可持续的、拾荒者的方式的内在失败，并试图在灰烬中建立一个新的文明。[Non-game 1]
新的威胁和概况的变化[]
大本營
在回到城堡并重新专注于调查首都废土后，新晋升的长老[10]里昂斯在天灾之后开始改变。当侦察兵在这片区域发现新的威胁时:一种奇特的超级变种人，栖息在华盛顿市中心的废弃废墟上，他改变了优先级。里昂斯深信他们是废土人民的主要威胁，于是开始了一场旷日持久的消灭运动，不惜牺牲兄弟会最初的技术恢复使命。[13]兄弟会还协助当地科学家进行救援项目: 詹姆斯和凯瑟琳是最值得注意的接受者。他们是一对科学家，试图建造一个大规模的净水器，为废土提供几乎取之不尽的新鲜纯净水，减少他们对当地净化方法的依赖。然而，尽管有兄弟会的参与，净水计划还是未能成功。受挫的里昂斯撤回了他的部队，让计划自生自灭。净水计划不久之后就夭折了，在2258年7月，[14]与詹姆斯的妻子凯瑟琳一起死亡。[15]然而，里昂斯并没有完全撤回对他的支持:他允许他的总管，星光圣骑士克羅絲护送詹姆斯和他的孩子到101号避难所，保护他们免受废土的威胁。[16]
其他联盟是最有利的。兄弟会获得了鉚釘城的合作，在废弃的航母上进行定期招募。在一名现有成员同意为他们担保之后，志愿者被接纳为兄弟会的新成员。未来圣骑士丹斯是最引人注目的收获之一。[17]几年后，在2272年，三狗与兄弟会建立了另一种有益的关系，作为保护和技术支持的回报，三狗允许兄弟会进入銀河新聞電台广场，并为兄弟会说了好话。从那时起，它成为兄弟会在华盛顿一片废墟中的据点，同时也是里昂斯的宣传电台。[18]
然而，许多问题仍然存在:这些本地超级变种人是如何产生的?他们与西部新加州的超级变种人有关吗?他们为什么要抓首都废土的人?要带他们去哪里?[10]
叛变[]
寻找这些答案最终成为了歐文·里昂斯的执念。尽管有相反的证据，但新任命的长老决定，超级变种人不仅对兄弟会和他们在华盛顿的斥候构成威胁，而且对废土上的所有人构成威胁。[7]用于剿灭运动的资源导致技术恢复实际上陷入停滞。兄弟会在废土上的存在，曾经延伸到MDPL大型中继站，沿着波托马克河，并延伸到战后弗吉尼亚州的社区，包括核彈鎮，现在开始收缩。[19][7]
里昂斯欺骗了西海岸多年，说服他们派来增援部队和补给，声称要继续科技复苏，但实际上，他继续命令他的下属杀死超级变种人来救人。然而，没有谎言可以无限期地持续下去。当里昂斯断然拒绝听从长老委员会的直接命令时，事情到了紧要关头。作为回应，西海岸迅速切断了他的联系，并拒绝任何和所有增援。到2277年，里昂斯的分会和失落山丘之间的联系完全停止，援军也完全停止了。[20]
里昂斯不得不自谋生路，他的兄弟会开始衰落。与变种人的冲突持续着，资源和人力紧张到了极点:一个超级变种人攻击小队完全有能力消灭一个武装到牙齿的五人兄弟会小队，而且似乎源源不断。兄弟会的士兵却做不到。[21]里昂斯的手下继续跟随他，听从他的命令，主要是出于兄弟会从他们出生时就教给他们的忠诚教义。然而，忠诚也有其局限性，并最终导致里昂斯分会在其短暂历史中发动战争的能力受到最毁灭性的打击。[22]
分裂[]
- Main articles: Brotherhood Outcasts, Schism
部分骑士和圣骑士对里昂斯专注于保护废土和它的人民感到不满，认为这是对人力和资源的无效浪费，最终会摧毁兄弟会。局势逐渐恶化，终于在2276年发生了转折，[23]因为里昂斯长老无视了他们多次要求从独立要塞(一个战前科学军事基地)恢复技术的请求。[24]集结在圣骑士亨利·卡斯丁身后，[25]反对者放弃了里昂斯的指挥，离开了大本營，带走了大部分武器和装备库存。里昂斯在那一刻失去的士兵比他23年来与变种人作战的士兵还多。[26][27]人员和物资的损失对里昂斯的战斗表现产生了重大的负面影响，因为遗弃者没收了大量必要的装备，未分类的回收物，随之而来的备件短缺大大降低了里昂斯维持其战役的能力。[25]
在卡斯丁的指挥下，流浪学士、骑士和圣骑士占领了独立要塞，在那里他们击退了土著的掠夺者团体，并将这个前军事基地改造成他们的主要总部。这些叛变的士兵被他们愤怒的前兄弟姐妹称为“遗弃者”，他们用这个名字作为荣誉的象征，[28]他们把自己的盔甲涂成红色和黑色，以区别于他们不再相信的组织。在分裂一年后，遗弃者组织了一个定期巡逻系统，在废土上搜寻技术，并开始挖掘几个地点，包括虚拟战略模拟设施，以完成最初的任务目标。他们计划在加强他们的地位并扩张到独立要塞之外之后，与西部的效忠者重新集结。[29]
作为长老，里昂斯审判了被遗弃者，并将他们的名字从法典中删除。[30]他还通过了一项禁令，禁止在大本營提及他们的名字，拒绝讨论他们或他们的命运。[26][27]值得注意的是，他对他们没有恶意。他理解他们的嘲讽，尊重他们为兄弟会的目标所做的奉献。[31]他始终拒绝讨论他们的命运，也不考虑对他们发动战争，即使他的女儿，里昂斯鐵衛，正迫不及待地想消灭这些异教分子。[32]
拐点[]
涂鸦标记，用来表示前哨或路标
里昂斯的兄弟会进入2277年时，由于缺乏合格的战斗人员和严重耗尽的武器装备库存，他们的力量被削弱了。兄弟会在大本營之外的势力已经缩小到以前的一小部分，只有少数几个加强了防御的前哨基地散布在哥伦比亚特区的大都市地区。[33]里昂斯的领导似乎失败了，军队不断减少，被重重生存威胁所困。[34]尽管兄弟会与西方断绝了联系，但成员们还是从兄弟会的教义中得到了安慰:相信古人的技术和创造，相信他们能战胜古人的恐惧，相信他们的兄弟，他们的长老，最重要的是，相信胜利:兄弟会继续战斗，没有投降的选择。[35][36]里昂斯自己在他的部下面前装出一副勇敢的样子，但开始怀疑自己的领导能力，考虑把长老的衣钵传给一个更有能力的领导人，他的女儿。[37]
他的个人魅力有助于将残余势力团结在一起。虽然兄弟会继续招募甚至征召废土人加入其队伍，快速训练他们，但他们经常被匆忙投入战斗。由于缺乏训练和纪律，他们的流失率非常高，[38]导致兄弟会的精英们认为他们是无用的废物。尤其是里昂斯鐵衛。[39]事实上，里昂斯鐵衛的精锐部队里昂斯的骄傲在维持兄弟会防线的能力方面发挥了重要作用，每当兄弟会常规部队需要额外火力时，他们就会赶来。[40]兄弟会尽了最大努力将变种人控制在华盛顿，远离人类社区。[41]
兄弟会被迫在这种削弱的状态下面对英克雷。他们曾经遗弃的净化器被前首席研究员詹姆斯重新激活，并得到了他的孩子的帮助，这个孩子现在只被称为獨行者。英克雷占领了净化器，麥蒂森·黎博士带着净化器可以正常工作的信息来到了大本营，尽管之前的数据与此相反，这迫使里昂斯长老做出了决定。长老决定不允许英克雷极端分子控制废土。[42][43]为此，他开始集结自己仅有的力量，准备对英克雷发动一场战役，同时指派独行者去取回净水计划的钥匙: 来自87号避难所的伊甸园 创造套件。与此同时，麥蒂森·黎和羅斯查德學士着手设计一种让自由至尊运行起来的方法。[44]
独行者的任务没有按计划进行。英克雷在一段时间前成功潜入87号避难所，并俘获了独行者和G.E.C.K.[44]然而，由于总统伊登和上校奥特姆的分歧，独行者逃出雷文岩，并在大本营与里昂斯的部队重新集结。尽管只有勉强够守卫大本营的人手，[45]里昂斯长老下令部署新激活的，应急[46]启动自由至尊，成为为里昂斯的骄傲打通英克雷防线的大锤。阻止英克雷激活净化器成了当时的命令。[47]
对抗[]
英克雷对这样的攻击毫无准备，无法击败自由至尊，尤其是当骄傲和独行者在他身后扫荡幸存者的时候。[48]先头兵在净水器周围挖出了一条路，包括光子共振屏障，最后，莎拉·里昂斯和独行者击穿了剩下的防御者，到达了控制室。输入密码后，净水计划被启动，并立即开始净化华盛顿特区的潮汐盆地。然而，启动时产生的冲击波使莎拉·里昂斯和独行者陷入昏迷。[47]
两周后，独行者在大本营的医务室中从昏迷中醒来，并被里昂斯长老亲自任命为兄弟会的骑士。在这十四天里，废土发生了变化。净水器的失败使飞英克雷剩余的部队陷入混乱，让骄傲和其他里昂斯部队在自由至尊的支持下，摧毁了废土上的几个关键设施，首先是雷文岩。[49]随着它的失去，首都废土的英克雷残余变得无组织和不协调，这使得仍然弱小的兄弟会更容易公开攻击和击溃他们，特别是在自由至尊的支持下。[50]
景观的第二个主要变化是净水商队的出现。里昂斯长老决定向废土上所有主要定居点提供水，完全免费。[51]里昂斯长老坚持免费提供水，这使得为这项行动寻找资源和资金变得极其困难。事实上，他们如此艰难，以至于他们迫使整个冒险的负责人比格斯利學士违背他的命令，卖水，以便能够真正完成他被命令做的事情。[52][53]另一个问题是装瓶水必须手工完成，因为兄弟会太专注于对英克雷技术进行逆向工程，而没有设计出装瓶机。[54]整个行动也因普遍缺乏资源和规划而受到严重阻碍。[55][56]
但即使兄弟会逐渐占据上风，英克雷也很难被击败。他们诱使里昂斯和他的手下产生了一种虚假的安全感，最终把他们引到了废土西部的卫星中继站。在那里，自由至尊被一次轨道炮袭击完全摧毁，数十名英克雷士兵牺牲。[57]这完全扭转了局势，里昂斯的军队失去了他们在英克雷唯一的真正军事优势。[58][59]即使从羅蘭设施废墟中恢复的加密数据也无法弥补。[60]
自由至尊的毁灭使兄弟会处于非常困难的境地，因为这消除了对英克雷唯一的重要军事优势。[58]里昂斯在与英克雷的冲突开始时几乎没有人力和资源，在失去自由至尊后，所有这些问题都浮出水面，正在进行的供水计划加剧了这些问题。随着资源被集中用于防御英克雷，新加入的骑士独行者奉命潜入奥尔尼发电厂，取回一个特斯拉线圈。[61]线圈是一个必要的技术奇迹，罗斯柴尔德学士开始制造特斯拉加农，重型战前能量武器，以缩小兄弟会和英克雷之间的技术差距。[62]
独行者成功完成了任务，这使得罗斯柴尔德和学士们在快速逆向设计特斯拉线圈后开始组装大炮。在这一点上，独行者成为里昂斯最有能力的外勤特工，并被赋予了足够重要的任务:根据在中继站遭到不幸袭击期间恢复的数据，兄弟会确定了英克雷派在亞當斯空軍基地废墟中使用的第二个行动基地。独行者奉命潜入基地，独自一人摧毁英克雷的总部，而兄弟会的其他成员则分散了注意力，让独行者潜入而不被发现。[63][57]
独行者又一次付出了巨大的努力，单兵潜入亚当斯空军基地，摧毁了英克雷的移動基站，有效地摧毁了英克雷剩余的指挥结构，第二次在东部击毁了它(历史上第三次)。[64][65]
最后的日子[]
在与英克雷的冲突之后，兄弟会享有稳定的地位，但并非无可匹敌。在冲突开始时，由于库存严重枯竭和人力短缺，[33][34][35][36]在与英克雷的战斗中伤亡惨重，失去了他们最重要的军事资产自由至尊，使未来变得不确定。兄弟会忙于对英克雷技术的研究，以及它所回收的装备和武器的数量，慢慢地在长达数年的过程中恢复了力量。[66][67]兄弟会在这个时期最伟大的成就之一是开始建造普利德溫號，这是一艘装甲飞艇，极大地提高了兄弟会的投射力量的能力。[68]
该分会遭遇的最大挫折是约2278年歐文·里昂斯长老的去世和同年晚些时候他的继任者莎拉·里昂斯长老的去世。随着权力的流失，剩下的兄弟会成员选出了许多无能的领导人，而少年扈从亞瑟·麥克森则成长为一名有能力的战士和战术家，最终在2282年战胜了首都废土超级变种人的新战争首领Shepherd。这一功绩为他赢得了一个临时领导职位。事实上，这个职位是西海岸长老们授予的，他们透露他们仍然在监视他们的误入歧途的弟兄们。[1] 麦克森的地位在2283年得到巩固，当时他与兄弟會流放者谈判达成了一项条约，将他们重新纳入阵营，并改革了整个组织，将里昂斯的教义与传统教义中可挽救的元素结合起来。里昂斯的兄弟会成为了遥远的记忆，麦克森带领团结的兄弟会力量走向新方向。[1]虽然有些成员觉得这里令人厌恶，人迹罕至,[69]还有更多的人留下来，为重新定位的兄弟会服务而自豪。[70]
主要哨所和地点[]
东海岸兄弟会是一个主要的军事力量，拥有大量的物资、人力、尖端技术和各个领域的科学研究，使他们能够在整个东海岸投射力量和影响力。他们在废土上有许多据点和基地，包括下面这些:
大本营[]
大本營是东海岸兄弟会的堡垒。这个庭院建在五角大楼的废墟中，是用来训练新兵的，他们由甘尼圣骑士训练。从那里，人们可以去要塞实验室，在那里，学士单调地在他们的职责之间进行多项任务(剑，盾，或羽毛笔)和罗斯柴尔德首席文士的一项特殊任务;更确切地说，自由至尊。貝爾聖騎士负责要塞外面的安全，而柯爾文騎士隊長 (借助于莎拉·里昂斯)负责要塞内部的安全。围绕着自由至尊中心区域的是a区和b区。兄弟会的会议室位于a区(被称为大会堂)，在那里他们要么计划未来的行动，要么指挥外勤部队。有两条小通道与大会堂相连，用于储藏，既存放食物又存放杂项物品。最北的房间被称为"里昂斯活动室"，它是仅为里昂斯的骄傲成员保留的休息和补给。最南端的房间是保留羽毛笔团和所有与东海岸兄弟会有关的历史记录，麦克森血统，首都废土的避难所，以及战前的五角大楼。
银河新闻电台[]
2277年，当歐文·里昂斯还是长老的时候，兄弟会在华盛顿特区中心的新闻广播电台银河新闻电台有很大的影响力。它在战术和战略上都很重要，因为它是位于华盛顿特区废墟中间的一个可防御的位置，而且与工作室的DJ三狗有相互关系。
华盛顿纪念堂[]
同样是在2277年，一个由五名士兵组成的兄弟会小分队驻扎在这里保卫纪念碑，纪念堂上面有银河新闻的卫星。不幸的是，由于这一地区的混乱(在林肯纪念堂奴隶贩子，鷹爪組織，超级变种人和英克雷在争夺国会大厦的三边战斗中，超级变种人在国家档案馆和兄弟会在向林肯纪念堂发起进攻后建立的具有讽刺意义的众多掩体中有立锥之地)，伤亡人数很高，卫星天线经常被撞掉，这导致那里的军队只是一遍又一遍地使用同一个天线。在一次这样的事件后，这个天线无法修复，这导致了另一次徒劳的追逐。
賓夕法尼亞大道[]
兄弟会在白宫的核遗迹附近有一个小的休息和补给区，他们在一个废弃的酒店里安家，由于超级变种人不断地进攻这个地方，他们很少睡觉。
阿靈頓圖書館[]
兄弟会主要在阿靈頓圖書館(正式名称是国会图书馆)，在2277年，里昂斯长老让伊爾琳學士寻找完整的战前书籍来添加到他们的收藏中。他们还试图消灭那些在图书馆加强自身防御的掠夺者，这些掠夺者已经成为试图抢救图书馆书籍或任何有用东西的士兵的烦恼。
净水计划[]
在与英克雷的战争接近结束后，兄弟会在被称为净水计划的科学综合设施中建立了一个立足点，该科学综合设施位于杰斐逊纪念堂的地下。兄弟会雇佣了铆钉城的安全部门来帮助他们运输水，并保护计划。
亞當斯空軍基地[]
在英克雷的移動基站被摧毁后，兄弟会在亞當斯建立了一个永久的大本营，试图从残骸中收集他们能收集到的东西来建造普利德溫號。亞瑟·麥克森将所有资源用于建造普利德溫號。六年后，这艘巨大的飞艇被建造出来，并在首都废土上作为一个移动指挥基地服役了五年，然后才启程前往联邦。
组织[]
一队圣骑士在五角大楼河流入口正面的露台上巡逻
里昂斯的钢铁兄弟会是兄弟会的一个流浪分会，保留了他们的母组织的大部分习俗，只有一些小的调整。作为最初，它本质上是一个技术宗教，伪骑士的军事秩序，由一位长老歐文·里昂斯领导。长老对组织和它的每一个方面都有完全的控制，从概述总体目标，到分配每个成员的职责。与最初的兄弟会不同，里昂斯的分会将骑士和圣骑士合二为一，[71]他们的职责集中在战斗上。另一方面，学士的任务是研究，以及技术的制造。剑骑士团、盾骑士团和羽毛骑士团的划分被保留。[72]
军事细节[]
另見： 钢铁兄弟会等级制度
在战场上，兄弟会采用小队制，运用适当的军事战术，保持严格的等级制度。由于缺乏无线电设备，大多数单位都是独立的单元，没有固定命令，有时几周或几个月都不向大本營报告。[73][74]兄弟会军事部门的成员可以分为三个明显的群体:
- 新兵是出生在兄弟会或当地志愿者招募成为成员。然而在最近几年，这已经成为一个问题，许多提升者缺乏适当的训练而被匆忙投入战斗。不幸的是，这些是兄弟会地面部队人数最多的成员。[75]
- 骑士和骑士长以及在兄弟会中服役并成为正式成员的成员。他们是主要的骨干，不像新兵那样常见，但却是更好的战士。
- 圣骑士是兄弟会的老兵，许多人是里昂斯长老最初来到华盛顿特区的成员。他们是兄弟会中最优秀的成员之一，通常是高级战地指挥官或在精英突击队中使用。里昂斯铁卫是最高级别的战地指挥官，直接回应里昂斯长老，她领导里昂斯的骄傲，首都废土钢铁兄弟会的最好的士兵，全在一个小队内。
废土人可以被该组织接纳为新兵，条件是他们必须由一名现有的信誉良好的兄弟会成员担保。[76]在2276年和兄弟會流放者的形成之后，兄弟会已经枯竭的队伍不得不在不需要担保的情况下，在当地招募新兵。[23]然而，那些被征召到里昂斯服务的人的质量非常低，因为他们过于渴望、好斗和缺乏技能。[75]
外部关系[]
圣骑士在Falls Church与超级变种人交战
2277年之前，兄弟会在废土上更为活跃。帮助保护了核彈鎮[77]和净水计划的建设，直到里昂斯长老认为这是徒劳的努力。
到2277年，兄弟会与外界的关系非常有限。要塞本身是禁止外人进入的，里昂斯长老放弃了几乎所有的军事行动，除了在华盛顿特区的废墟中猎杀超级变种人(这一事实被兄弟會流放者嘲笑为毫无意义的白鲸狩猎)。[78]它与外界的贸易仍然有限，主要是供应方面的贸易。
兄弟会对屍鬼几乎没有容忍度，他们一看到屍鬼就开枪，要么把他们误认为超级变种人，要么根本不关心他们之间的差异。[79]
在英克雷重新出现在废土之后，兄弟会再次在废土上变得更加活跃，他们用自己控制的净水器建立了送水车队，并在净水计划之战和乌鸦岩失利后领导入侵混乱的英克雷部队。
科技[]
在大本营档案馆工作的学士
里昂斯兄弟会的技术水平各不相同。在2276年的分裂之后，该分会失去了大量的武器、装备，最重要的是人员，从2277年开始，力量大大削弱。[33][34][35][36]供应的短缺也意味着在维护武器、装甲、装备，特别是任何潜在的研究方面的困难。[26]尽管人数减少了，他们并没有停止研究新技术，[80]并修改目前的设计，包括升级动力装甲，尽管部分短缺。[81][82]
然而，兄弟会确实有充足的T-45动力装甲，这是任何在战场上操作的人员的标准装备，甚至是新兵。然而，由于里昂斯的组织中有大量未经训练的新兵，兄弟会的装备损失非常快，因为废土上每死一个新人，就意味着少一套装甲和一套装备。他们的主要武器是R91或93式突击步枪，AER9激光步枪，或CZ53个人旋转机枪。[83]
与对抗超级变种人的战役不同，对抗英克雷的战役和最终的胜利为兄弟会提供了新的先进技术，包括从死去的士兵和英克雷武器中清理出来的变体高级动力装甲。虽然逆向工程程序正在进行中，但可能需要数年时间才能完全理解、研究和从废土上的各种基地残骸中回收该技术。[66][67]然而，这是以失去自由至尊为代价的，这是兄弟会唯一真正独特的战争资产。直到2287年，兄弟会才在新管理层的领导下重建。[84]
尽管该组织拥有先进的军事技术，但却无法使用无线电通信，迫使其部队依靠信使和通讯员保持联系。这种情况也导致卷轴的更新能力受到极大限制。[85][74]
註釋[]
- 东海岸兄弟会是目前唯一被提及拥有有效空中部队的分会/分部。虽然在过去有像普利德溫號这样的飞艇被建造来探索东方，但直到辐射4之前，兄弟会还没有在游戏中展示或提到过垂直飞行机的战斗力量。
- 聖騎士丹斯會提到兄弟會在首都废土外附近的位置佔領了一座採石場，並認為那"得不償失"。[86]
- 如果独存者选择消灭阿卡迪亚的合成人，钢铁兄弟会将在荒岛山建立据点，将阿卡迪亚作为前进作战基地。
- 完成战利品后，兄弟会将使用麻州核融合廠大樓作为前哨，大多数士兵会说，这座建筑是一个技术的“金矿”，学士仍在搜索这座建筑。
- 戰無不勝结束后，兄弟会会将控制散布在联邦各地的战前军事检查站。
- 到2287年，兄弟会似乎使用了一种新的旗帜，它有一个橙色的背景和白色的兄弟会标志。
- 在普利德溫號上的钢铁骑士兄弟会可以直接提到首都废土，说"如果你认为联邦不好，你应该去看看首都废土。"
登场[]
钢铁兄弟会出现在辐射3中。
幕后[]
- 东海岸钢铁兄弟会与其他辐射游戏有一些相似之处和不同之处:
- Emil Pagliarulo在钢铁兄弟会上写了一个游戏外的文本来源，一个派系简介博客。
开发者引述[]
“在辐射3，钢铁兄弟会，他们就像一个分支。他们比以前的游戏里的更高贵，我们知道这一点，因为我们知道我们的玩家会想要这样，期待这样。所以我们有了兄弟會流放者，他们更像老派的钢铁兄弟会，强硬派。里昂斯长老和首都废土中的那些，他们就像一个分支群体，他们并没有真正与主要群体联系在一起。所以这是一个很难平衡的事情，而在辐射4中，他们更像强硬派的立场，有点接近他们在1和2中的立场。”— Emil Pagliarulo,pixel.tv

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..."
(Peabody's and Owyn Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ 27.0 27.1 Peabody: "Greetings, Elder. I wish I could say that things were well. Unfortunately, I am still having supply problems. When Casdin..."
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' dialogue) - ↑ Elder Lyons: "Certainly, Sarah. What's on your mind?" or "Yes, my daughter? What is it?"<

Elder Lyons: "Oh, Sarah. My dear, sweet girl. So eager you are to rush headlong into battle. But no, not now. Not yet. Our time will come, fear not." or "You may be a Sentinel, but you're also my daughter. And I won't throw your life away fighting an enemy we know too little about. I'm sorry, but no."<

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."

Reginald Rothchild: "You're an outsider. I don't expect you to understand. We live and die by our dedication to the Brotherhood. To go against orders... It's not something that's done. 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. Forces dwindled, Super Mutants on one side, Enclave on the other. We can barely take care of ourselves."
(Reginald Rothchild's dialogue) - ↑ 35.0 35.1 35.2 The Lone Wanderer: "What does the Brotherhood believe?"
Elizabeth Jameson: "We believe in technology, in the triumph of the creations of the ancients over the horrors and evils of the Wasteland. We believe in trust. Trust in technology. Trust in our fellow Brothers. Trust in our Elders. Ah, and we believe in victory. Our forces have dwindled, but still we fight on. Super Mutant, Enclave, it matters not. Surrender is not an option."

Artemis: "What's been going on? Well, let's see. For years, we've been draining our resources defending the ungrateful residents of this no man's land. 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?"
(Artemis' dialogue) - ↑ Elder Owyn Lyons -- Personal Log 2: "Here I sit, in the safety of the Citadel, while the people of the Wasteland thirst, and suffer, and die. Here I sit, a failed, feeble old man. What have I really accomplished? How many have I truly helped? The Super Mutants still roam rampant. The people still die of thirst and radiation. 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?"
- ↑ Lone Wanderer: "So, you guys looking for new recruits? "<

Sarah Lyons: "I'll take that as a compliment. If we don't try to keep the mutants from killing everyone and everything in the Capital Wasteland, who will? The Brotherhood does its best, but sometime's it takes a little something... special. That's where the Lyons' Pride comes in. "
(Sarah Lyons' dialogue) - ↑ Lone Wanderer: "Who did you say you were again? "<
Sarah Lyons: "The name's Sarah Lyons, Sentinel and squad commander of the Lyons' Pride. We're with the Brotherhood of Steel. We do our best to hold back the Super Mutants in this area. But when civilians stumble into our sights, that gets a bit difficult. Doesn't it? "

Madison Li: "The Enclave. They've attacked Project Purity. James is dead... there may be more. I don't know. You have to do something!"
Owyn Lyons: "Then it's as we feared. Madison, I'm sorry this happened. I wish we could have done something..."
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!"
Owyn Lyons: "Now now, calm down. You know as well as I do that the purifier doesn't work. It's useless to them. Perhaps it's time to walk away."
Madison Li: "That's not true. James... He found what's been missing. We know how to get it running."
Owyn Lyons: "Is that so? Does the Enclave know this?"
Madison Li: "No, I don't think... I don't know. I just don't know what's happening anymore."
Owyn Lyons: "All right, Madison. It'll be okay. Now, this is James' son/daughter, I presume? I can see the resemblance."

- ↑ 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."
(Tristan's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Seems like a lot of trouble giving it away. Why don't you just sell the water?"
Bigsley: "Many of us keep asking that same question. The Brotherhood isn't a postal service. We have IMPORTANT things to do, and we need caps and technology to do it! Lyons is on some kind of mission. Has he forgotten about the Enclave? That's our priority... But yeah. Things are being done to "offset" the cost of Lyons' little pet "Purity" project."

Bigsley: "Thank you. Now, kindly get the hell out of here. I need to think." - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Is it hard bottling all that water? Or is it all done by machines?"
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's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Sounds like you have your hands full."
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's dialogue) - ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "You're not the only one with problems."
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. Not to mention the mountain of crap I get from all the lab coats running around underfoot."

It would be good to salvage something from this mess. Thank you for bringing this to me. I believe Elder Lyons will want to speak with you as well. Perhaps you should find him. 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.

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: "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."

- ↑ 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."
