Captain of the Guard

Captain of the Guard is a title granted by the First Citizen of Vault City to exemplary citizens that have gone above and beyond the call of duty to protect the city's interest and independence. In essence, it is the highest military rank one can hold, giving the citzen full authority over Vault City's military might.

Overview
In Fallout 2, the Chosen One can attain this rank if they are nice enough to Lynette and complete the exchange between her and Westin.

Obtaining this rank within Vault City will allow the player character to go back to Citizen Sergeant Stark in the Corrections Center and demand that he pay John Cassidy compensation for damaging his bar, which will earn them $500 and 500 XP. It will also allow one to bring Marcus and Lenny into the inner city without being stopped by the guards. Bringing Marcus to the Vault doctor will earn the XP and a considerable amount of ammo, as he pulls years of accumulated bullets out of Marcus' body.

Obtaining
Here are the requirements to be appointed Captain of the Guard:


 * Be a Vault City citizen
 * Have a Speech skill above 74% and a Charisma > 7.
 * Complete the Stop the raiders quest by showing Lynette the account book from the raiders and Bishop's holodisk detailing his affairs with NCR
 * Have a high level of respect (See below)
 * Complete Lynette's follow-up quest to deliver the disk to Roger Westin in NCR.

If all the conditions are met, await the promotion after reporting back to Lynette after the delivery.

"Respect Counter"
In order to be promoted, completing the quests is not enough, it is also mandatory to have a high level of respect from the First Citizen. Respect is gained by using her proper form of address (First Citizen), and lowered by talking to her when not a Citizen, referring to her more casually, or otherwise upsetting her.

One sure way is to ask her about why they are not living in the vault, getting the all-clear, respectfully requesting to speak with the overseer and checking with the vault computer.
