Andrea Brixley

General Andrea Brixley is an Elder of the Brotherhood of Steel in 2253.

Background
She began her career as a scout/explorer and was originally sent east to confirm the existence of what later became the Maxson Bunker. She originally used it as a hideout, with her team, after disabling security.

Over the next ten years, she travelled the wastes and formed relationships with many of the tribes and settlements in the area. After the war broke out between the Brotherhood and the NCR, Andrea was promoted to commander and placed in charge of the bunker. She also received the title of 'Elder Paladin' along with her squad.

She is not comfortable with leadership and would prefer to explore. She lacks the organizational skills and has a rather lasses fairez style of leadership. She is, regardless, a well loved leader and her subbordinates often assist her with her flaws.

Her greatest support comes from her fellow Paladin, Glenn Deering.

Still, there are detractors in the bunker, like Traci Niels. Niels aims to replace Andrea and Jerry Corsetti sees Traci's leadership as potential to have his own 'final solution' implemented, which would win the war with the NCR.
