[[folder:Jerome Jefferies]]
The former pastor of Falls End church. After surviving the Apocalypse, he assists Prosperity by ambushing Highwaymen convoys.

[[folder:Hurk Drubman Jr]]

[[folder:Grace Armstrong]]
A former military sniper from before the Collapse. Unfortunately, time has taken a toll on her, and her failing eyesight means she forced to put up her sniper rifle...and grab a shotgun.

* HandicappedBadass: Her cataracts means she's practically blind. Not that that stops her any.

[[folder:Gina Guerra]]

[[folder:Nana]]
And elderly, possibly senile, sniper. The Captain finds her having set up a shooting range at an old grain silo. Impress her, and she may just join your crew.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: She notes that she doesn't remember much of the Collapse, only that she may have had a daughter and a husband. She figures there's a good reason her brain blocked that part of her memory off, so she leaves well enough alone.

!!Fangs For Hire

[[folder:Timber]]
A dog rescued from becoming a Highwayman's meal. Loyal to the Captain and ready to fight by their side, he is highly effective at scouting and sniffing out enemies.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Horatio]]
A...very large boar that the Captain can befriend after rescuing it from Highwaymen. He's fairly tame...if you're not a Highwayman.

[[/folder]]

!!Prosperity

[[folder:Kim Rye]]
Carmina Rye's mother and Nick Rye's wife. Like her husband, she lived through the Collapse, only to have the Highwaymen steal their home and kidnap her husband. From there, she and Carmina went on to help establish Prosperity, and she became the de facto leader.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Nick Rye]]
A former pilot, survivor of the Collapse, father of Carmina Rye, and husband of Kim Rye. He was captured by the Highwaymen shortly before the Captain arrived in Hope County.
[[/folder]]

!!The Highwaymen

[[folder:Mickey and Lou]]
Twin sisters and leaders of the Hope County chapter of Highwaymen. They believe that trying to restore society is a useless gesture, and so they devote their time instead to ransacking other survivors for resources and killing anyone who gets in their way.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Joseph Seed]]
The Father himself. 17 years ago, he was trapped in a bunker with the Deputy as his only company as the Collapse plunged the world into flames. When it was all over, he returned and established New Eden, a place for his followers to live free of the "old world" and the sins that came with it, but disappeared into the northern region of Hope County shortly before the story began.

* AmbiguousGender: Those few who refer to them do so as "they" instead of "him" or "her." The Judge themself doesn't speak at all, their only vocalizations being raspy raspy breathing, and their entire body is obscured under a thick leather hunting coat and a wooden mask. [[spoiler: This is all likely because they're the Deputy, who was a player-created character.]]

Ethan Seed's enforcer. Hired at the end of his missions.

Joseph Seed's personal bodyguard. Hired at the end of his missions.
