"We don't worship so much as follow a set of principles. We want to bring peace back to this wasteland. The world tends toward destruction, so we try to make a difference." -Nicole
History:
Sickness was spreading in San Diego (later renamed Dayglow), the only remaining town near the Glow, so Nicole and her parents gathered all the people and organized an exodus to the north. During the trip, however, her parents were killed by marauders. Tired of the killing, and motivated by the death of her parents, she founded the Followers of the Apocalypse, a group dedicated to re-educating and rebuilding the wasteland, and to ensuring that humanity would not repeat the mistakes that led to the Great War.
After founding their group, The Followers of the Apocalypse, they continued traveling to the north and settled in the Boneyard, establishing a headquarters in the former Los Angeles Public Library. The Followers are generally liked wherever they go, since they teach people valuable medical and agricultural knowledge, as well as putting forth many humanitarian efforts. Around 2161, they were one of the few groups to recognize that the Children of the Cathedral were more than what they seemed, and were suspicious of their motives. Talius, a ghoul-like mutant partially exposed to FEV by the Master's forces, found refuge among the Followers, and helped them understand the true nature of the Children.
After the death of the Master, the Boneyard became one of the states of the New California Republic, and the Followers became both a major influence in the newly-founded NCR and the controlling organization in the Boneyard. Growing in power, the Followers begin to create expeditions to bring peace everywhere in the Wasteland. Some became disillusioned with being allied with the NCR and left the Followers, while maintaining the principles of the foundation. (Vidya had left to go to the town of Carbon in Texas, to inculcate the Followers' doctrine in her own way).
The most important expedition was to the Mojave Wasteland where, with the help of the NCR, they traveled into New Vegas, settling in the Old Mormon Fort in Freeside where they could tend to the wretched, injured, and downtrodden. They took in stragglers of many creeds and colors.
Society:
he Followers' goal is to bring the torch of knowledge to the wastes and facilitate the free flow of information, technology, and supplies equally among all the peoples of the wasteland, though they usually give special attention to those most in need. They often provide education, medicine, and scientific expertise free to all who require it, and their members are frequently found lending their aid to the needy wherever they can. Ideologically, the Followers' principles bear some resemblance to anarchism. Above all else, they support pacifism and cooperation. They oppose organizations and civilizations which seek to thwart these principles, albeit not through violent means.
In terms of organization, the Followers don't have a strict hierarchy; they are a decentralized organization, although regional hubs (such as the old Mormon fort in Freeside) are established to coordinate efforts of individual members in the field. The Followers don't care about controlling territory, unlike NCR, but rather concern themselves with the welfare of the people. It is said by Ignacio Rivas at the HELIOS One solar plant that they tend to "clean up" after the NCR.
The Followers are generally liked where they go, due to their humanitarian efforts. However, some governments dislike the Followers, as they are generally liberal thinkers who occasionally plant seditious thoughts in the heads of oppressed citizens
-----------
In the year 2238, a rift openned between the members of the Followers. As a result, a new group formed called The Lost Children. These faithful few have taken the bigger picture and uphold all the moral choices the Followers first took up. Where there is a wastelander in need, there is a Lost Child to offer knowledge, and armaments.

Hi there,
although I don't play this game I've observed the forum and (beside some really nice pictures and other stuff) I found this thread with your appeal for picture of your faction. And the idea struck me so I had to make it:-)
I hope that you'll like it and it will help your faction to look good:-) If you want to change something just say, I still have the working .psd file. If you will not like it that's ok at least I had fun while making it.

This image is pretty awesome, however, I'm not sure how you could change it to represent this faction in a positive light. No one who we encounter, do we ever wish for them to lay bloody in the wasteland heat. If you're up to the challenge, I'd love to see how you can rework that image to portray a positive light on the children. =]
