Responders

The Responders are two volunteer-based disaster relief organizations that have operated in Appalachia. The original was formed shortly after the Great War by local first responder units, while the second was formed in 2104 to assist needy Appalachians in surviving.

Background
The original Responders were formed in the wake of the Great War by emergency personnel with the intent of helping their fellow citizens survive. The group established it's headquarters in Charleston and worked with the Charleston Emergency Government to restore order.

The original organization came into conflict with those infected by the Scorched Plague, and like most of the residents of Appalachia, were wiped out. The Responders fell when their final outpost, Morgantown Airport, was overrun by the Scorched on November 7, 2096.

In 2104, the Responders would be resurrected when a group led by Rucker took on the title and began working out of the The Whitespring Resort to provide aid to the people of Appalachia. The new group has transformed the resort into a free clinic, refugee camp, and soup kitchen, and has begun caring for refugees from as far as The Pitt.
