Maria Chavez

Maria Chavez was the leader of the Responders, a faction that existed in post-War Appalachia and was comprised of former military, police, medical personnel and firefighters.

Background
Maria Chavez was one of the founders of the Responders after the Great War, eventually becoming their official leader. Her mother was a nurse who worked at AVR Medical Center and her interest in naturopathic medicine helped Maria in the aftermath of the War with treating people as the availability of medical supplies dwindled.

While trying to secure more resources for the Responders, Maria wrote to Jeff Nakamura with the idea of sending a team to scavenge Gauley Mine.

She died in the Morgantown Airport terminal, when a large horde of Scorched attacked the Responders' command post. Her remains can still be found there in 2102, alongside a holotape she recorded in her last moments which informs the listener of a Responder inoculation project which they might find useful.
