Mr. Brotch

Mr. Edwin Brotch is the teacher of Vault 101.

Brotch is the man taking care of the G.O.A.T. - exams and you are able to slack out of your G.O.A.T. by talking to him before the exams and simply choosing with skills you want as your base skills. You can also disagree with the result he gives you at the end and he will offer to change the results for you.

Acting rebellious or saying you are going to answer randomly or purposefully incorrectly prompts him to tell you how he was just like you at one stage, and he makes it quite obvious that he dislikes the result he was given. Perhaps it is because he sympathizes with you that he offers to change your results before or after the test.

It is also evident that he dislikes Butch DeLoria, as he states he wishes to savor the moment before issuing him with the profession of hairdresser.

If you return later during Vault 101's factional crisis, Mr. Brotch will be held captive in jail, due his joint leadership of Amata's rebellion and the belief that the Vault must be opened if they are to survive. He reveals that some of the hardline guards were planning an attack on the rebels, without the Overseer's knowledge. You can free him by hacking the nearby terminal or taking the passkey from Officer Wilkins' corpse.

After he is released, he will report to Butch and Amata regarding the lack of willingness of the dorm residents to support the rebellion.
