Paladin Kodiak

Paladin Kodiak (born Greg Bear) is a member of the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel, specifically the Lyons' Pride in 2277.

Background
He was rescued by the Brotherhood of Steel from the ruins of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (now known as The Pitt), an area where three irradiated rivers met about 500 clicks northwest of Washington, DC. The Pitt was the site of a siege conducted by Elder Lyons, intended to wipe out any and all of the city's mutated residents. Kodiak describes the city as being a dangerous, crime-filled place, more so than any other area in the East Coast Wasteland, and certainly enough for him to consider the Scourge the best thing to happen to the place. The only citizens of The Pitt spared by Lyons (apart from those lucky enough to escape) were children who appeared to be unmutated. Greg Bear was one of these children. He informs the Lone Wanderer that he and about 20 other unmutated youths were brought to Washington, DC and subsequently trained as Brothers of Steel by Elder Lyons - he remains as the only surviving Brother from that group still stationed at the Citadel.

Within the Lyons' Pride, Kodiak is their "jack of all trades" not specializing in any one area, but doing a bit of everything: recon, demolition, and tactical assault.

Relationships
Paladin Kodiak may be related to the Bear Brothers, John and Grudd, of The Pitt.

Daily schedule
He can be found around the Great Hall in the A Ring area of The Citadel.
