Diehards

The Diehards are a gang of raiders located in Appalachia. In Wastelanders, they returned under the leadership of Meg Groberg.

Background
The Diehards were unique among most raider gangs in that they were averse to killing innocents, believing there were other ways of getting what they wanted. This led to the other raiders labeling them as weak and pacifists. However, many survivors refused to hand their supplies over to the gang, leading them to kill innocents. This caused the gang's leader, Margie McClintock, to go into a depressive state, deciding to take her own life in a chem overdose and hoping another member of the gang, Vincent Fried, would be a more successful leader. At some point prior to 2102, the Diehards were wiped out, with super mutants taking over much of their former territory. A number of Diehards left Appalachia before the Scorched could finish them off.

By 2103, however, the Diehards returned to Appalachia under the leadership of one of its original members, Meg Groberg, with a new raider group based on the Crater. They are seen by other gang members as "old raiders", but otherwise are well known in their ranks.
