The Mercs

The Mercenaries, also known as The Mercs, were a group of radicalistic raiders and bandits in Season 9. They were the first set of Side Characters and NPCs to play the role of main antagonist in a season of the People's Project. And were also the first NPCs to be recognized as Mystic and allowed to play an integral part in the season's overall plot.
== Origins ==
The Mercs were introduced by Exlosia when he mentioned that there was a group of radical bandits who have been raiding factions and outposts around Richmond. They posed a constant threat to Richmond and other factions as they had a large group with heavy weaponry, capable of taking over or destroying entire factions. The Mercs were only mentioned and never seen up until a scout was spotted watching Richmond from afar before driving off on their motorbike. 
Jacqueline insisted to Exlosia that they should prepare and fortify Richmond to avoid an attack from The Mercs as they posed a higher threat to Richmond than the zombies do.
