Paladin Brandis

Paladin Brandis is a paladin of the Brotherhood of Steel living in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
Paladin Brandis was assigned to go to the Commonwealth as the commander of Recon Squad Artemis, with the objective of gathering pieces of pre-War technology and intelligence shortly before the arrival of Paladin Danse's team. His squad consisted of Knight Astlin, Scribe Faris, Knight Varham, himself and 2 other unnamed soldiers.

He was the only survivor of his squad after a series of attacks from various hostiles, which separated his squad, hence why their bodies are found in several locations in the quest The Lost Patrol.

Brandis can be found at Recon bunker Theta. If convinced to return to the Prydwen, then upon talking to him there he will thank the Sole Survivor and give them his gun, the Survivor's Special. Later on, Brandis will assist the Brotherhood with the assault on the Institute during Ad Victoriam and The Nuclear Option. Alternatively, he will participate in the raid on the Railroad HQ in the quest Precipice of War if the Sole Survivor follows the Railroad line of quests.

Quests

 * The Lost Patrol - the Sole Survivor will need to succeed in 3 increasingly difficult Charisma checks to get him to return to the Brotherhood or he can be killed by the Sole Survivor.
 * Precipice of War or Airship Down - Paladin Brandis needs to be killed among all the other named Brotherhood of Steel characters.
 * Ad Victoriam and The Nuclear Option - He will assist the player during the assault on the C.I.T. ruins and the Institute.

Appearances
Paladin Brandis appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs

 * Brandis can be killed after convincing him to return to the Brotherhood and he will still turn up at the Prydwen later, alive and well.
 * Despite successfully completing three speech checks to convince Brandis to return to the Prydwen, he still refuses to return and will remain in his bunker.
 * If convinced to return to the Prydwen, he might not give the player his Survivor's Special, he will instead say his lines.
 * If you convince Brandis to rejoin the Brotherhood and complete The Lost Patrol through Paladin Danse before completing Shadow of Steel Brandis may not appear on the Prydwen or in the bunker. This might be related to Shadow of Steel not triggering after Reunions.
 * Interrupting the initial dialogue with Brandis might cause him to become unresponsive.
