Vanguard

[Who Dares Wins]

Dedicated to the belief that order and civilization will only be restored and willing to place their weapons and their lives behind that belief, the Vanguard march a narrow and precarious path ? balancing between defending order and becoming a dictatorship. Before the Infection, most of the Vanguard were part of the National Guard, Police Departments and First Responders. After all Goverment and communication collapsed, many of these banded together and assisted in rescue operations and protection.

A year later, the Vanguard are the closest thing to what could be considered a Goverment and have made it their duty to protect civilian survivors and assist in reforming humanity: Protecting civilians, rebuilding towns, clearing out pockets of Infected infestation.

The reports of crushing dictatorship by would-be Vanguard warlords are rampant, and there are corpses located throughout the desert bearing evidence of Vanguard execution. Some within their own ranks feel as if they are constantly being watched and scrutinized by unseen agents. Nothing is ever proven, but the suspicion continues to mount as to whether the militaristic defenders of order are actually making a better world or simply crushing the life and freedom out of what is left of the United States.
