Veronica was kept in the dark about the affair, and her reverence of Elijah only increased.

Elijah might have used his status to end her relationship with Christine Royce, so that she would follow him into the Mojave. By far the only person with whom he had any kind of working relationship (but still largely terminal communicated) was Scribe Veronica Santangelo, his pupil. Elijah also detested face-to-face interaction, preferring to keep his human interaction via terminal screens and would predominantly use terminal messages to send scribes on missions into the Mojave on tech leads. A pathological control freak, he would often view the people under him as mere equipment, expecting them to carry out his orders and requests unquestionably, while dissent or unpredictability on their part would not just annoy, but even outright infuriate him. Įlijah revealed himself as a brutally pragmatic and altogether unpleasant leader. The elders, rather than deal with him, decided to send him away, east, to form a new chapter of the Brotherhood in the Mojave.

The conflict developed as Elijah pushed for developing new technologies and new, ethically questionable weapons. His drive to develop new technologies put him at odds with the more conservative members of the Brotherhood, particularly other elders. Elijah often dispatched scribes on tech retrieval missions, chasing all the leads he found. His approach towards technology, iterating and improving, rather than simply preserving it, was considered unorthodox by his peers. His scientific acumen was matched only by his drive to recover and develop technology. An exception was granted for him, on the grounds of him being a genius, able to figure out the workings of a device just by looking at it.

2 Interactions with the player characterĪ scribe of the Brotherhood of Steel, Elijah defied convention and rose to the rank of elder, an honor usually reserved exclusively for paladins.
