Background
Veronica was born into the Brotherhood, like virtually every member of the organization in the 23rd century. Her father was a paladin and her mother a scribe. Both were killed in the same battle with the New California Republic while she was still a child, and she was brought up by the whole Brotherhood as a result. Father Elijah took a keen interest in her education, becoming her tutor and eventually a parental figure (or the next best thing; Veronica never had a grandfather and Elijah was what she imagined one would be like).From a very young age (before she was even able to speak, according to her), she demonstrated an aptitude for engineering, taking things apart and putting them back together. This drive and natural curiosity led her to choose the career of a scribe within the Brotherhood.Turning her from a tinkerer into an engineering prodigy, in no small part thanks to Elijah's guidance. His technological genius rubbed off on her in many ways but perhaps the most important thing he taught her was irreverence for dogma and authority. His years-long bickering with the elder council taught her to question the Brotherhood's direction.
As an adolescent, Veronica fell in love with Christine Royce, another scribe. However, their budding relationship was frowned upon by some members of the Brotherhood, who believed that the limited numbers of the order mean that everyone is obligated to procreate. Eventually, Christine's parents prevailed and she left the Brotherhood to put distance between her and her parents. Veronica was unable to convince her to stay and could not bring herself to abandon the order.She never realized the truth: It was Elijah who was responsible for the breakup, using his status to break them apart. She never learned that Christine didn't actually leave the Brotherhood either; instead finding new purpose as a member of the Circle of Steel.Unwilling to leave the Brotherhood behind, when it was Veronica's turn to make the decision, she chose to remain. She believed in what the Brotherhood stood for, or at least the values at the heart of their beliefs. Elijah's influence also played a role. When the Council decided to deal with him by promoting him out of the way, assigning him to investigate Hoover Dam in Nevada, he asked her to join him in founding a new chapter.She should've said 'no, thanks.'
