In the old days it is said that motorcycle gangs ruled the highways that crisscrossed the land. Historians described these gangs as roving bands of heinous outlaws, pillaging and spreading lawlessness wherever they went. It was natural that in the years following the Genesis Solution that the idea of these tough, self-sustaining gangs would survive and persist in the unforgiving Central Wastelands. One of the most powerful of these gangs roams Grand Junction, the central area of the lands controlled by the Tribes of the Changed.

Known as the Riders of the Apocalypse, this heavily armed motorcycle gang represents a threat to anyone on the highways that span Grand Junction. The Riders have embraced the apocalyptic attitude carried on by its founder, Death – that “nothing matters,” the world had already ended and that they should violently enjoy what little time was left. Murder, pillage, destruction and intimidation are the standard tactics. Not surprisingly, many others have flocked to the cause, and in recent months, the Riders have grown so much that by necessity, they are increasingly organized and even structured. Naturally, the Riders are extremely dangerous.
