The Remnants are a resistance group led by Charlie Tent and are based in St. Louis, Missouri. As their name suggests, they are a group of human survivors, and, unlike other survivors, take more direct attacks on the Chimera.

History[]

Founded sometime after the fall of the United States in 1953, the Remnants were founded by Charlie Tent, who often recruited survivors to the group. Amongst these initial members included Ellis Turner, a pilot that Charlie had discovered and rescued. During these recruitment missions, Charlie often maintained his false background as a high-ranking military officer, fooling many members. However, the more experienced members eventually learned his deceptions.

Stationed in St. Louis, the Remnants launched a guerilla war against the Chimera, often taking direct action against them. However, their constant attacks on the Chimera did not sit well with some members of the group, with at least one member had made the decision to desert the group.[1] Sometime before 1957, the group discovered and recovered an abandoned U/AV-17 Hawk in which Ellis repaired the VTOL, allowing the Remnants to launch much quicker hit-and-run battles. However, this became limited when the Chimera deployed Stalkers and the VTOL became reliant on the power cores of Chimeran dropships. This forced the Remnants to use their VTOL sparingly.

On August 11, 1957, the Remnants launched an attack on Chimeran forces in which they split up, with Glenda, Ellis and Martin taking the VTOL to launch an attack on Chimeran forces, while Charlie and the others distracted Stalker forces from targeting the VTOL. But the battle nearly turned awry, as the VTOL crew were forced to flee as Chimeran dropships began chasing them and damaging the VTOL's engine. Forced to land near a bar, the VTOL crew became pinned down as the Chimera engaged them from the rooftops across the street.

Fortunately, the Remnants were then assisted by Joseph Capelli, who had witnessed the VTOL's crash-landing, and helped eliminating the Chimera. Eventually, they were forced to abandon the VTOL and retreated to their safe-house, where they reunited with Charlie.[2] The Remnants came to an agreement with Capelli to provide penicillin for Doctor Malikov and transport to New York City in exchange for Capelli's help to ambush a Chimeran dropship and recover its power core for the group's VTOL. The Remnants' plan worked initially, but attracted unexpected Chimeran reinforcements and forcing the Remnants on the defensive.[3] Some of the resistance members were killed before a feral Widowmaker entered the battle, allowing the Remnants to escape while the Military Chimera were focused on the Widowmaker. Capelli retrieved the power core and killing the Widowmaker in the process.[4]

The Remnants repaired their VTOL, and Charlie and Ellis departed with Capelli and Malikov on their journey to New York.[5]

Tactics[]

As a resistance group, the Remnants lacked the numbers to combat the Chimera directly, and only resort to guerilla warfare against the occupiers. The Remnants suffered severe losses, largely due to their consistent battles with Chimeran forces.
