Captain of the Guard is a title granted by the First Citizen of Vault City to exemplary citizens that have gone above and beyond the call of duty to protect the city's interest and independence. In essence, it is the highest military rank one can hold, giving the citizen full authority over Vault City's military might.

Overview[]

In Fallout 2, the Chosen One can attain this rank if they are nice enough to Lynette and complete the exchange between her and Westin.

Obtaining[]

Here are the requirements to be appointed Captain of the Guard:

If all the conditions are met, await the promotion after reporting back to Lynette after the delivery.

"Respect Counter"[]

In order to be promoted, completing the quests is not enough; it is also mandatory to have a high level of respect from the First Citizen. Respect is gained by using her proper form of address (First Citizen), and lowered by wasting her time when not a citizen. A Speech skill of 75% is generally needed to have the "respectful" options in dialogue.[1] 11 total points of "respect" are needed, with each "respectful" line (with a few exceptions, so the effective number is somewhere around 15) earning one.

One sure way is to ask her about why they are not living in the vault, getting the all-clear, respectfully requesting to speak with the overseer and checking with the vault computer.[2]
