Rust Devils (Automatron)

Rust Devils are a hostile faction appearing in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
Appearing in the Commonwealth near the arrival of The Mechanist, the Rust Devils' use of robots differentiates them from the typical raider gangs. To further their capabilities, groups of the Rust Devils scavenge throughout the Commonwealth for functional robots and parts. Any robots they can't capture or reprogram, they strip down either repurposing them as armor, or for parts to maintain their existing cohort.

They are openly hostile to other raider gangs, as Rust Devils and Raiders) are seen fighting each other upon arrival to the [[General Atomics Factory. Their main outpost is the Fort Hagen Satellite Array, until the Sole Survivor arrives and has to kill them in order to get to one of the Mechanist's Robo-brains, Jezebel. Their leader Ivey is also among the casualties sustained, as well as a heavily modified Sentry Bot named Ahab. Their presence is largely minimal from then on, limited to their robots ambushing caravans and trying to take down random robots across the Commonwealth.

The robots they reprogram are then heavily customized and used for raids or for the defense of their base at the Fort Hagen satellite array.

The Rust Devils are initially led by Ivey.
