Summary: Set before Fallout Equestria- Of the many factions that rule Equestria, Raiders are amongst the most common. Raiders are a sadistic variety of ponies that have succumbed to the harsh nature of the Wasteland. They are almost always violent and aggressive to civilized settlements, prone to unprovoked violence and wonton assault, and typically act hedonistically and with little sense of conscience. They populate nearly every part of the Equestrian Wasteland in some shape or form.
Many raiders are unaffiliated to particular factions, working mostly in small unorganized groups. However, many raiders will band together to form large gangs, controlling territory and attacking settlements en masse. Deep in the Badlands, there are a set of raiders that rule their own territories and are at constant war against each other.
Among these factions are:
[*]The Nosferatu gang: A Raider faction made up of Batponies and carnivorous species that practice vampirism.
[*]The Ghost Hoof Gang: A gang of ponies who take their stealthiness very seriously, to the point of after a hit, they leave nothing but hoof prints
[*]The Rad Bomb Group: A Gang of Ghouls who use radiation as their main weapon, taking in those that do turn, into their gang
[*]The Mad Gizmo Gang:A group of 'intelligent' raiders who have hacked into robots through skill or dumb luck and use them and cybernetic enhancements to raid towns
[*]The Barbed Sword Gang: A Gang that attempts to capture every victim they meet, and torture them for fun
[*]The RAZORWINGS Gang: A Raider group made up of flying species, they use their ability of flight to their advantage of attack by swooping down upon their victims.
[*]The Tartarian Steeds: A group of ponies who attempt to use fire in every attack, burning down anyplace they attack, leaving only charred corpses
[*]The Spirit Ravengers: A Zebra and Buffalo Tribal Gang that uses shamanistic powers to defeat their enemies.
[*]The TROUPE Gang: A group of ponies that use a circus-like theme, acrobats with swords attached to their legs, demented clowns with acid squirting flowers, etc.
These factions constantly recruit many of those in the land, steadily growing in number; however there are times where some members and hopefuls are turned away and rejected from the groups due to one reason or another. That's where your story begins, you're an outcast of whom is currently drinking your sorrows and/or frustrations in the bar known as "The Watering Hole" of the hub town, "The Oasis". There you meet some like-minded ponies that are having troubles of their own, you and they get it in your heads that they should start their own Gang and take their revenge on the other factions by taking their territories.
