(OOC: To everyone who is playing as the BoS, Francois has put me in charge of the BoS. For a starting post, just start your character off doing some minor task. (Sleeping, practicing, a small recon mission at the most, etc.) You can hear of Andy's promotion if you wish, that's up to you. Just make sure you hang around the citadel, or at least report back to it. You can also have chats with NPC's to help with your posts. )
"The Eagle Claw!"
That was the sound of GNR, coming from my pipboy. My eyes flickered open and I let out a loud yawn. I sat up in my bed and stretched towards the ceiling. I could hear members of the Brotherhood talking outside my door, it was faint but I could still hear them. This wasn't one of the luxuries of having your own private room in the citadel. I turned 'The adventures of Herbert 'Daring' Dashwood' off and looked at the time.
"11 o'clock? Damn I'm late for my meeting." I thought to myself.
I was still in my pre war sleep wear, there was no way I was going to go through the citadel looking like this. I walked over to my locker and pulled out my armour. This armour and I had been through some crazy stuff, but it had always served me well. I had the outcasts to thank for my armour although I wasn't going to tell the Brotherhood that. I took of my sleep wear and threw it into the locker and after some hopping, jumping and squeezing, I was in my power armour. I went back into my locker and fished out the helmet. I put it under my arm and left the room. I was happy to make a new home in the citadel, even though at times I did miss my old house in Megaton, which had served me well when I first left the vault. Walking through the halls of the citadel was great, I was greatly respected by every member of the Brotherhood.
I got nods and hand shakes as I walked down the halls. Nods from the senior Brotherhood member, who by now were used to me and hand shakes from the new comers, the initiates. I didn't really mind the extra attention but I still wanted people to know I was still no better than anyone in the BoS. I walked towards the meeting room and spotted Sarah out the front waiting for me. She smiled as I walked up and I smiled back.
"You're late again, Andy." she said.
"Personally I think I'm entitled to a little bit of a sleep in, what with beating the Enclave and all." I retorted with a huge grin across my face.
"Always on about the Enclave aren't you?" she said as she opened the door into the meeting room.
Elder Lyons was sitting there waiting for my arrival, he had an expressionless face.
"Sorry I'm late, Elder." I mumbled.
"It's ok, after all you are entitled to a sleep in, aren't you?" He said, again with no emotion on his face.
I looked down and saw Sarah smiling out of the corner of my eye.
"You heard that? I'm sorry Elder." I said embarrassed out of my mind.
Lyons smiled. "Sit down my boy, we have much to discuss."
Sarah and I sat down next to Elder Lyons. Sarah handed me some files, which I presented to the Elder.
"Well, thanks to a combined effort we have managed to destroy around about 95 percent of the super mutant population. The other 5 percent have gone into hiding in unknown parts of the wasteland. We've managed take and destroy vault 87. We've also taken the main super mutant hideouts, the mall, The German Police HQ and so on. The Brotherhood is now stronger than ever with the new outposts thriving. Recruitment is at an all time high and the new recruits seem to be doing well. The purifier is working at full capacity and most of the wasteland now has access to clean, fresh water. We've set up a deal with the head members of the Pitt and we now receive weapons, armour and ammo in exchange for an abundance of water. On the whole the Brotherhood is stronger than it ever has been."
The Elder looked at me and smiled. "You've done an excellent job you two, the wastes will begin to prosper from what we have achieved." Lyons stood up and gestured for me to do the same. "You have done an amazing job and I wish to award you with something, Andy. I wish to promote you to the rank of Sentinel, you have done so much for this Brotherhood and I hope to see more of the same thing. Congratulations, Sentinel."
"It's an honor Elder." I said as I shook his hands. I could see Sarah clapping me on behind Lyons.
"Excellent, I will announce it to the Senior Paladins and tell them to spread it throughout the ranks of the Brotherhood." The Elder said as he left the room.
I smiled, today was going to be a great day.
