Tank Busters

Tank Busters (Tanku Basutāzu タンクバスターズ) are an organized force of human survivors from the Cascade Incident. Consisting of a wide variety of individuals from various backgrounds and skillsets, the Tank Busters sole goal is to brave the apocalypse and battle the bizarre beings crossing through the interdimensional rift.
Named after the groups feats and body count with taking down Tanks with ease, they are in stark contrast to Cipher Command (C2). The groups diversity and flexibility when faced with extreme odds makes them a force to be reckoned with, even considered a Small Army by those unaffiliated. 
== Notable Members ==
=== Primary Members ===
Despite the groups small size consisting of ten members amongst their ranks, the Tank Busters are well renowned for their inexplicable survival skills, geographical knowledge and fire power. With the chaotic wild card nature of the groups varying ideologies and strengths, the group is rarely seen traveling together if not in groups of four in order to cover more ground towards their ultimate goal.
It is not unheard of for the group to split up or employ hired guns during travels through highly zombie infested settlements, much like the introduction of the Hitchhiker Trio during the groups campaign through the Lil' Sanics Dark Carnival.

=== Three Supernovas ===
Recognized as the three heads of the Tank Busters, the Three Supernovas carry their title with almost superhuman abilities and incredibly outlandish feats. They have played the largest roles in the group, and are each viewed as leaders of missions the group ventures out on.
Nick Tracy is the founder of the Tank Busters and is a former detective, as a well as a self-proclaimed Ash Williams/Aiden Pearce noire wannabe. While he may feign a mysterious or imposing appearance, Nick has garnered the nickname "Nick the Dick" for his liability, with his insufferable antics putting the rest of the crews lives in jeopardy over his mundane action hero persona. 
Honchelle Roko is the co-founder of the Tank Busters and a former playboy bunny actress with a keen sense for survival due to numerous past outdoors training regiments. Preserved and well focused, despite her looks she is one of the most hardened veterans in the group willing to throw herself into harm to protect the lives of others.
Jeremy Quetee is a co-founder of the Tank Busters and is a hardy femboy crossdresser with an ace driver. Fancying themselves as a professional speed demon with hyper attention to their surroundings on and off the road, Jeremy is the comedic backbone of the group never failing to boost the groups morale in even the most strenuous of situations.
=== Edgerunners ===
The backbone of the Tank Busters and major members in charge of supplying the group and offering counter support, everything from armaments', medical supervision and fire support. They are arguably the most active of the group on the field regardless of their time in or out of battle.

Bonfie Bonnet
Rilana Yah
Baigen Cannis
=== Hitchhiker Trio ===
Dubbed based solely off of their relation and ragtag assembly upon the approach to Lil' Sanics Dark Carnival, the Hitchhiker Trio are loosely tied to the group and are experienced fighters only along for the ride. While all of them vary in their own ideologies and skills, all three are capable of their own incredible feats.
Dick Majima is a former gambler and detective that had separated himself from his partner Nick Tracy, joining the Tank Busters simply to survive without knowing of Nicks involvement as its leader. Dick is a graphical and geographical surveyor, as well as a strategist with a nihilistic view of the world due to his upbringing, having little to no regard for the rest of the group.
Alex Kidd is a Ugandan spy and a master tactician, hailing from a Private Military Company to find a sacred relic amongst the zombie infested Lil' Sanics Dark Carnival. Always observant of the actions of those around him, Alex keeps himself disconnected from the rest of the group while discerning resource management.
Franky Keith is a trailer park hick and a cooking genius with an advantageous heart of gold. Traveling from colony to colony, Franky is an experienced convoy guard and a natural shot, and defers to pacifistic approaches when confronted with uninfected individuals, but a burning hatred for the undead hordes.

== Trivia ==
* The inclusion of Franky Keith and Alex Kidd was from an alternate stream which had wound up disappointing both Signas and Tanemane into replaying it in a separate game due to Tanemane's death at the very tail end of the campaign by a Tank that had launched him as Ellis out of the helicopter moments before takeoff.
* During the recording of The Perished finale, both Signas and Honchelle were originally thrown off the bridge by a tank. However, Signas and Tanemane decided to postpone finishing and replay the episode hours later due to a strict schedule at the time, that and the ending feeling detrimental as it killed off two of the Three Supernovas.
