Raider groups

== Raider groups ==
=== Introduction ===
Raider groups are small or large raiding parties of nomadic peoples who survive off raiding caravans, scavengers, or settlements. They more often than not follow some sort of religion, and are usually into drug use. Raiders are also known for having their own slang and language, often referred to as "Wastespeak"
=== Religion ===
Raiders often follow salvaged religions from the old-world. This includes a modified version of Nordic Paganism, or "Roadrunz Belief", where they believe in reincarnation in Valhalla, and use and mix terms from the old-world, like Kamikaze and Crazy mixed together to form the word Kamikrazy, A word used for describing someone who is extremely eager to fight in a battle/raid.
Others believe in old-world relics to be the key their religion. This can be seen for example with "H&K Boyz". They believe in the gun company Heckler and Koch to be the supreme gun manufacturer, loyally only using their weapons, and believing that when firing them, they 'sing' their song. 
Many crazy religions can be observed, some larger than the others, but definitely belonging to the raiders.
=== Culture ===
Raider groups have vastly different cultures compared to eachother, and therefore, it is hard to find common ground, both politically, and when trying to understand them. What they do all have in common however, is that they raid and pillage for their own survival, refusing to opt for peaceful solutions. Some raider groups even completely abstain from producing their own food, as they want to replicate the times of the stone age, where people had to hunt for food, their form of hunting being raiding of course.
=== Impact ===
Raiding has a significant impact on trade, especially everything going through the badlands and the Sunrise Omniport. This is why these routes are avoided at all costs, and travelling through them is even more heavily avoided. Raiders do however exist everywhere, but in smaller quantities.
