Children of Atom (Far Harbor)

The Children of Atom  is a group in Far Harbor dedicated to the worship of Atom.

Background
The group worships Atom, describing themselves as "servants of the creator of this and all worlds." They also worship radiation and its ability to transform. The ultimate goal of the Children of Atom is to achieve Division through an atomic detonation or by exposure to radiation. The group awaits an event called the Great Divide and are sworn to protect nuclear stockpiles and irradiated locations until it occurs.

The Children of Atom in Far Harbor inhabit the Vessel, a pre-War military ship that is irradiated and known to as The Nucleus. The group was established by Confessor Martin and Tektus, sent from the Capital Wasteland at the behest of Confessor Cromwell, described as "Atom's great prophet." The inhabitants of Far Harbor were not receptive to their teachings, and they were exiled. Confessor Martin and the congregation were guided to the facility by the Mother of the Fog, referred to as "one of Atom's most revered messengers."

Members of the group are not effected negatively by radiation, allowing them to live in the Nucleus. For those that do suffer from radiation, anti-radiation drugs are taken and described as a penitence, to "scour oneself and embrace the Glow anew." Those wishing to be initiated into the group are sent to drink from an irradiated pool of water known as Atom's Spring.

The Children of Atom refer to one another as family members and use the titles Brother and Sister. They are led by Confessors and High Confessors, the decisions of which are considered absolute. The "defenders of Atom's faith" and guardians of the locations inhabited by the group are known as Zealots. The Zealots are led by a Grand Zealot and their second in command.
