Mr. Brotch

Mr. Edwin Brotch is a resident of Vault 101 and the Vault 101 teacher in the year 2277.

Background
Brotch is an only child. Like his father and grandfather, Edwin is a teacher. He is not married and has no children. He is the man responsible for administering the G.O.A.T. exams.

Daily schedule
In the players youth, Edwin can be found in the classroom. During the Trouble on the Homefront quest, he can be found in the Vault 101 cell. If he is released, he will join the rebels in the vault's clinic.

Interaction with the player character
The player can convince the teacher to create a fake G.O.A.T. result. The player identifies those traits which are the closest to the skill set most desirable. If the player agrees, Edwin suggests a lie the player should give when asked about the test's results. The player should respond that they took the test at detention the day before the G.O.A.T. The player can, also, disagree with the result Edwin gives them at the end and Edwin will offer to change the results for the player.

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

If the player returns 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. The player can free him by hacking the nearby terminal or taking the password from Officer Wilkins.

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

Appearances
Edwin Brotch appears only in Fallout 3.
