Brotherhood of Steel

War is all that you remember about throughout your life. You have done nothing but spill enemy blood and live to tell the tale. You are a member or former member of the Brotherhood of Steel. They are considered one of the largest militias in the United States Wasteland, and they mean to cleanse everything from nuclear fallout. 

This military usually result in violence and authority instead of offering peaceful solutions. There is only order in this world if they have a huge part of it to control. Many citizens consider the Brotherhood of Steel "racist" due to their mass discrimination against synths, ghouls, and super mutants. They would do whatever they could to annihilate them from the earth. The soldiers and Elders are considered a threat to everybody in certain states, but they are not as inhuman as the Enclave.
