Paladin Danse

Paladin Danse is a possible companion in Fallout 4.

Background
Danse is a member of Brotherhood of Steel. An experienced tactician and a powerful warrior. Danse also lets outsiders join the Brotherhood, if they prove themselves worthy through trials. He grew up in the Capital Wasteland alone, picking and selling scraps. When he was older, he moved to Rivet City and opened a junk stand. He met a person named Cutler and got along with each other pretty well. He was then recruited by the Brotherhood of Steel during their recruiting runs with Cutler as they felt like it was "the best way out of our nowhere lives". About a year after being posted to the Prydwen, Cutler disappeared on a scouting operation. He persuaded his CO to assemble a squad and let him search for Cutler. After about three weeks, Cutler's team was tracked down to a super mutant hive. The super mutants killed all of Cutler's team but Cutler himself. However, they proceeded to use the Forced Evolutionary Virus to turn Cutler into a super mutant, who was then killed by Danse.

Other interactions
Danse has the power and authority to grant the Sole Survivor membership into the Brotherhood of Steel.
