Paladins - The true sword of the Brotherhood, Paladins are the highly trained and elite combat force, charged with protecting the organization.Though they provide an essential service, the Knight caste is sometimes considered transitory, as those Knights who prove the most capable in combat may be trained to become Paladins, and are the primary source for replenishing the ranks of that caste. They are often the ones sent out to procure found technology, or to scout out new items, and the ones most likely to be encountered patrolling the wasteland. Knights - Akin to military engineers, the Knights are responsible for maintaining Brotherhood stockpiles, particularly the weaponry.They also teach the youths of the Brotherhood when they begin their training. The Scribes are in turn divided into three branches: The Sword, The Shield, and The Quill, focused on offensive, defensive and non-combative technology respectively. They primarily reverse-engineer what new technology is uncovered, but occasionally they produce new tech themselves. Scribes - The Scribes are of course the keepers of Brotherhood knowledge, the scientists and researchers whose work it is to understand recovered technology, pass that understanding on.The body of the Brotherhood is divided into three castes covering all it's primary objectives: However, that too is an elected position, and need not remain in the bloodline. The Elders defer to a High Elder, the true head of the organization, who has often been a descendant of Roger Maxson.
Some Elders function more exclusively as the heads of chapters, as some of them are spread quite widely across the continent. Each Elder is elected by the council and may oversee a chapter in addition to their role on the council. The Brotherhood is led by a council of Elders, who are usually former Paladins. That said, their hierarchy bears little resemblance with the Old World military that they were born from, which is natural, considering the cause of their divergence. Just as it's roots were military, the Brotherhood today is military organization, and it's ranks suggest as much. In this way harmony of intent and cohesion of thought is maintained. A superior may only give orders to his direct subordinates, and not to those beneath them. Orders are to observe the flow and not skip ranks. An order from a superior must always be obeyed, that their wisdom may be carried out without hesitation.Ģ. Orders are to flow from on high down through the ranks. “The Chain That Binds is the cornerstone of our organization, the rock that supports the great tree of the Brotherhood and its myriad branches. Knowing how they think, operate and organize themselves is equally important.
H aving examined the storied past of the Brotherhood, you can get a good idea of what kind of people they are, but that is only one part of their character.
