*"The Brotherhood is nothing like us, Roberts. Just silly kids and old men playing soldiers and with itchy trigger fingers." -* Mordecai Junior describing the Brotherhood

**The Brotherhood** (known as Steele's Brotherhood) is a minor antagonistic faction in the Reboot franchise (notably in the Canon series). Like its namesake, the Brotherhood are a large army of ex-military personnel that went rogue and took a small town in Georgia for supplies and control under the direct command of Eric Steele.

## History

Between 2011 and 2015, Dean Robertson (a former Army officer) and his unit went to the small town of Johnstontown, Georgia and seeing an opportunity, Steele took over after Robertson's death and his unit began to become a militia force, starting to rob banks, kill law-abiding citizens and employees, and burn all federal property to show that the government didn't care for veterans. They ruled Johnstontown with an iron fist and showed that they used threats and subjugation to control the townspeople brutally and without any hesitation.

## Background

All Brotherhood soldiers are distinguished by their DCU uniforms and tactical gear. They're shown to be well-armed and well-trained, given their past as Vietnam War-era and Iraq War-era combat veterans from the US Army and the US Marines. Though they're lacking numbers, they make up for skill and equipment.

Led by Eric Steele, the group has been known for enslaving small towns or survivalist compounds and raiding them for supplies, regardless of whether they're small.
