Julian, now an old man, gave his famous speech, regained by the Scribes as the Steel and Blood speech, on the first year of his Brotherhood's occupation of Gordentown. Thus, the Idaho Brotherhood was officially formed. Setting himself up as Elder, Julian oversaw the recruitment of new Initiates and the pacification of any dissident elements within the town. With Gordentown conquered, Julian organized the beginnings of his new Brotherhood. Even with wounded and dead weighing them down, Julian's followers quickly overtook the town, and set themselves up as local dictators. This act was to be the township's last action as an independent settlement. Built in a few short years after the bombs fell by the remains of National Guard troops and survivors who fled the mutants and the early beginnings of the Boise raider gangs, the settlement of Gordentown was reluctant to aid the Brotherhood, but in the end decided that they would save the first sane humans to come out of Boise since the bombs fell.
It was only later in the outskirts of Boise that the expedition found the settlement of Gordentown. Julian himself had to engage in hand to hand combat with the enemy. The first foray into Boise was a total disaster, over half of the expedition team died in the chaotic crossfire of the Boise Raider Gangs and the mutant horde. From the Nevada-Idaho border, Julian and his followers traveled north until they found the fabled city of Boise. But much of the old group was dead, with only Julian and six others being the original members to make it to Idaho. By the time they arrived eleven years later the group had actually gained members from suitable recruits they had come across along the way. In Nevada, Julian heard of Boise, known as the "Jewel of Idaho" and said to be the largest city left in all the wasteland. However, they had not found a suitable place to settle down. They braved the dangers of the Mojave Wasteland and eventually traveled as far as the ruins of Carson City. Thus, when he was exiled, Julian and a large group of over twenty followers stormed out of California with as much gear as they could carry and headed east. However, the Elder council had little idea of just how much of a following Julian had. The Brotherhood of Steel found Julian's "blatant imperialism", unsettling and ordered that he be exiled. Julian was exiled for holding that the Brotherhood of Steel's mission would be better served if they tried to conquer various settlements, eventually taking over the whole nation of America, and make their will the law of the wasteland. The Idaho Brotherhood was created when a Paladin by the name of Julian Rotter was exiled from the California Brotherhood in 2111.
