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 is also known. They are known to extort the denizens of the region, and raid other raider groups for materiel 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 regions 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 not just 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.
