Not merely tribalistic raiders, Boomer's gang settled Outpost Zimonja, growing tatos, digging a well, and fortifying the pathway from the road. What parts they can not use to repair robots with they fashion into scrap, traps, and suits of armor.Īck-Ack's gang based itself in USAF Satellite Station Olivia, and harasses nearby farms, such as Abernathy farm, for food. A particularly mechanically savvy gang called the Rust Devils utilize redecorated robots for their raids. A detachment sent to Dunwich Borers began to scavenge the pre-War quarry and are shipping their products back to the Forged. The Forged have reactivated Saugus Ironworks and are using the facility to smelt metals to make armaments. From these camps, the raiders stage attacks on nearby settlements or pick off lone travelers.īesides raiding, some raider gangs have taken up more civilized forms of recreation. Libertalia, for instance, is made up of many rusted ships and boats.

Raider strongholds fluctuate greatly in size between the gangs of the Commonwealth some bases are mere camps while others cover vast swathes of land or sea. These leaders tend to be much more brutal and ruthless than their followers. Raiders are split into various gangs generally being led by a single leader. More gruesome acts like skinning their victims alive and wearing their skins are also known. They are known to extort the denizens of the region and raid other raider groups for material and kidnappings. Raiders equipped with salvaged power armor are easy enough to spot, but the veteran raiders often appear wearing the same low-quality gear one will find on any of their comrades. However, some groups contain at least one particularly powerful member who may not stand out from the pack. Like other groups, raiders have their share of legendary members and infamous bosses. Many gangs also include one or more attack dogs. Although predominantly human, there are ghouls among their numbers. Large groups can be a handful, and some gangs contain particularly strong members, but most raiders are poorly equipped and all too accustomed to preying on the region's most vulnerable denizens. What they lack in intelligence, they make up for in abundance, ruthlessness, and extreme aggression.

Raider groups that infest this region are some of the most primitive human groups to emerge in the wastelands - they are small anarchic bands of violent outcasts, preying on anything and anyone weaker than themselves.
