Paladin Kodiak

Greg Bear or Paladin Kodiak is a member of the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel, specifically the Lyons' Pride. He can be found around the Great Hall in the A Ring area of The Citadel. Speaking to him will initiate the unmarked quest Gallows Humor. He was rescued from the ruins of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, now known as The Pitt, by Elder Lyons and the Brotherhood, an area where three irradiated rivers met about 500 klicks northwest of Washington, DC. The Pitt was the site of a siege conducted by Elder Lyons. The purpose of the attack was to wipe out any and all of the cities mutated residents. Kodiak describes the city as being a dangerous, crime filled place- moreso 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 Pitt. The only citizens of The Pitt spared by Lyons (apart from those lucky enough to escape from them) 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.

Trivia

 * Paladin Kodiak's real name is Greg Bear, presumably a reference to the famous American science fiction author of the same name.


 * In the add-on The Pitt there is a pair of fighters in The Hole called the Bear Brothers, but they have no dialogue options relating to Kodiak. In fact, the whole DLC does not contain any such dialogue.


 * The name "Kodiak" refers to the Kodiak bear (also known as the Alaskan Brown Bear), one of the largest species of bear in the world.

Appearances
Paladin Kodiak only appears in Fallout 3.
