[edit] Biography
Brotherhood of Steel members have gone missing in Carbon, and the Initiate is tasked with searching for the paladins, starting with the nearby town. There, he fought the Jane Raiders, and met the Vault Dweller, the hero of Fallout, who told him that the paladins were in the city of Los.
In Los, he met Harold, a recurring character in Fallout series, and Giese, a former technician of Secret Vault, which gave some indication of where this was found paladins and told him that the Super Mutants found in the vicinity. Once in the torture chamber of the Church of the Lost, he found only Rhombus, sole survivor of the Brotherhood of Steel members, and fought Blake, the High Priest of the Church of the Lost. After the death of Blake, he escorts Rhombus to a truck where he had hidden a key card for the Secret Vault, the destination of the Super Mutants.
But while he recovered the key, Rhombus will be made by a kamikaze ghouls. After the fight with many kamikaze ghouls, Rhombus, seriously wounded, gave him the key card and entrusted the task of stop the Super Mutants. The Initiate asked for information of Los ghouls and Giese said a leading Warehouse Secret Vault to find this not far from here. He finds the warehouse and goes inside.
After fighting in the Warehouse, he managed to revive an old generator and take an elevator that overlooks the entrance to the Secret Vault. Here, two Super Mutants activate turrets automatically without doing it on purpose but the Initiate comes to destroy them. After all that, he reached the door of the armored vault and uses the key card to open it and enter.
In Secret Vault, he happens to go to the control center where Attis, the Super Mutant leader, is waiting. During this battle with Attis, he learns that Attis is looking for something in the laboratories area, but the Initiate is knocked unconscious and left for dead. With help from the human residents of the Secret Vault, the Initiate is revived and enters the ruins of the Secret Vault, to reach the last sector of the laboratory, where Attis is looking for something.
Arriving in the latter zone, he meet Attis and fight him again, but during the battle, he mutated into a blob mutant. The Initiate fights through the blob in order to gain access to a computer terminal that can start the decontamination of the Secret Vault. The Initiate must then sprint to a monorail car in order to escape the self-destructing facility.
He managed to escape and find it in the Wasteland a few miles away from Los and the Secret Vault, where he saw the explosion. After these events, it is unknown if he remained in the Brotherhood of Steel or if he left to wander the wasteland.
