It's Friday night and YES I am writing about how the Brotherhood of Steel obviously gained huge delusions of grandeur after defeating the Enclave to evolve from the Secret Bunker Babes in Lost Hills to announcing their arrival in the Commonwealth, over speaker phone, in HUGE FUCKING AIRSHIP.
Like. I am writing fic, but I also have Thoughts. A mess of thoughts bc I am tried and incoherent, but Thoughts all the same.
I am forever thinking about what the Capital Wasteland is like in 2287. How do the Brotherhood handle control of the Purifier? Do they give water in exchange for allegiance to the Brotherhood? Do they conscript settlers to build their numbers? Do they threaten settlements for resources like they do in FO4?
We know they savaged the Pitt -- known as the
'Scourge', and that ranking officers in the Brotherhood were taken from there:
...Owyn Lyons 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 easily by the Brotherhood and placed into initiate training...
Also what the fuck that is so bad.
