Jacob Elijah

**Star Paladin Elijah**, otherwise known as the **Traveler Of Steel**, is the son of the disgraced Elder Elijah, who operated in the Mojave, Capital, and Commonwealth Wastelands.

## Background

In the year 2265, Jacob Elijah came into the world in Hidden Valley. Fast forward to his 18th year, and he earned the rank of Knight within the Brotherhood. Sent on a mission to support Arthur Maxson's ascent to Elder of the East Brotherhood, Jacob and his fellow comrades faced trials, including aiding the Midwest Brotherhood on their journey. A year later, they reached Washington DC, where Maxson and Paladin Elijah met, though many comrades fell along the way.

Paladin Elijah aligned with Maxson's vision, and together they ventured to the Commonwealth. In the ruins, Jacob encountered Heather, a captivating woman, and their journey together blossomed into a love story. Allying with the Minutemen, they played a pivotal role in dismantling the Institute, earning Jacob a promotion to the esteemed rank of Sentinel.

His path led him through the wasteland, combating synths, ghouls, and super mutants, while the Brotherhood launched a relentless campaign against Gen 3 synths, causing friction with the Railroad. Battles ensued, but the conflict ultimately simmered down, thanks to the intervention of the Minutemen, preventing an attack on Goodneighbor.

In the year 2289, Jacob and Heather adopted two children, Sarah and Roger. Unfortunately, tragedy struck in the glowing sea when Elijah was alone on a quest. The Railroad discovered a hidden bunker and, assuming Jacob perished, unleashed destruction, taking Heather, Eathan, and Alex with it.

Heartbroken and believed dead, Elijah wandered away from the Commonwealth. Meanwhile, Roger and Sarah, now 20, joined Heather in the search for their presumed-dead father. The Commonwealth was now ruled by the Minutemen, with Nate, Desdemona, and Head Scribe Halen at the helm.

Elijah, unaware of his family's quest, continued his adventures in the west, collaborating with the Circle of Steel. Contacted by Heather after years, he learned of her survival. Reuniting in Jacob's 40th year, they embarked on new adventures before returning to the East to serve Elder Maxson.

In Elijah's 70th year, Heather succumbed to cancer, leaving behind 30 years of cherished memories. At 80, he faced his final battle against his ancestor, Max Elijah. The confrontation ended with both men's demise, but Jacob's legacy lived on through his children, continuing the tale of a man who experienced the highest highs and lowest lows in his extraordinary life.
