Deserving Dead
Page Version 1.43
This file will contain the names of those that crossed, betrayed, or tried to kill Ryan Cawdor and his friends. They are the Deserving dead.
Jordan Teauge: The Baron of Mocsin. He was killed by his second in command, a man
named Cort
Strasser. Ryan Cawdor
tried to use Teauge as leverage against Strasser after capturing
him when he learned that Traders convoy had been destroyed by a nerve gas attack.
For a detailed description of this man, see Barons and
Baronies.
Kelber: One of Cort Strassers men. He was
killed by a mutant beetle after accidentally swallowing it. The
beetle was meant for Ryan Cawdor. He died a hideous death as the
beetle bit and chewed its way out of him.
Rachel: One of three "Keepers" in the Anchorage
Redoubt. An ancient woman,
crazed from both inbreeding and isolation, she, her
husband/brother were the Keepers" of the Redoubt She
shot once through the head and killed by Ryan Cawdor after she
put four rounds into Hunacker,
killing Ryans friend. The firefight occurred in one of the
many barracks located in the Anchorage Redoubt. She was of
similar age to Quint (below). She wore an incredibly dirty
leather jacket and pants, and a cap which was decorated with
glass brooches. Her teeth were broken and chipped.
Quint: The head "Keeper" of the Anchorage
Redoubt. After seeing is wife/sister killed by well placed shots
from Ryan, he attempted to surrender. Ryan executed him after
leading a failed attempt to kill Ryan and his companions. Only
his daughter/wife, Lori survived
the attempt on the group's life, and that is because she warned
them just as the attack was about to commence. He is only 5 feet
tall, and was dressed in a bizarre assortment of rags and finery.
A jacket that bore sequins, leather pants that were cut off at
the knee, a womans high heeled boot on the right foot and a
stained blue canvas shoe on the left. Numerous medals and colored
ribbon hung from his left breast. A bandolier of various types of
ammunition is strapped across his chest. His long white beard was
stained amber and had green and orange ribbons tied into it. He
could be around ninety. His hair was streaked silver and gray,
and had a hooked nose and deep set eyes.
Uchitel: Leader of the Russian Invaders, the
Narodniki. After J.B. used an
ancient missile discovered in the ruins of a mining camp, near
one of the DEW line Radar Installations, to destroy an intact
dam, wiping out all but three of his raiders. Krysty Wroth executed him as he attempts to draw a
hidden weapon. He was nearly six feet tall, with almond shaped
eyes. The irises were golden. His mouth was thick lipped and
kindly. Around his forehead he wore a band of beaten silver which
had a large ruby in its center. His nickname was The
Teacher because he was the pretty much the only one of the
band who could read and write.
Bizabraznia: Huge, ugly woman, part of the
marauders, lead by Uchitel. She barely survived the collapse of
the dam, which killed all but her and three other survivors.
Ryan's group took her captive. She was executed by Ryan, shooting
her twice in the chest, and once through the face.
Narondniki Marauders: A band of some thirty odd men
and women who live by raiding and pillaging all over eastern
Russia. They are being pursued by a one hundred man strong
patrol, lead by a Major Zimyanin. The party loses two men to unforeseen
circumstances while making their way across the Bering Strait.
Four more are killed while attempting to set up a bomb that would
have wiped out Ryans party near an ancient dam. All but for
of the invading force are killed when a missile launched by J.B.
destroys the dam, washing them off to a frozen, watery death.
Both Ryan's party and Major Zimyanin's forces then execute the
four survivors.
Mephisto: The head sec man who took orders from Baron
Tourment, and no one else.
He was killed while Krysty and Lori were being rescued. Using his
Le Mat, Doc managed to wound Mephisto badly, and then
Lori puts out his remaining eye. Doc finally finishes the job,
putting Mephisto out of his misery.
Baron Tourment: A huge African American baron. He
was tracked down while trying to escape from the ruins of his
barony. Ryan and Jak corner
him. He attempts to take his own life, but fails, instead, he
wounds himself horribly, but is still living. With Ryans
help, Jak ties him to the boat and allows the huge Caymans to
feast on Tourments corpse as they paddle back to shore.
Mayor
Theodore Sissy: The ruler
of the ville of Ginnsburg. He is the latest in a line of hereditary
leaders of the ville and rules it with an iron fist. He is killed
when Ryan, J.B., Doc, and Finn
rescue Lori and Krysty from the female dormitory in the ville.
Lori places her little .22 caliber handgun in his mouth and
shoots him. She does this after being beaten, stripped naked, and
forced to perform oral sex on him. He was a tiny, frail man
confined to a wheel chair. His head seemed far too large for his
body and was fringed with white hair. His legs were twisted, and
he wore numerous rings on his fingers. He wore a suit of light,
cream colored cloth.
Staff of Wizard Island Complex For Scientific Advancement: The descendants of the original staff of
scientists. They are terribly inbred and were bent on completing
a project known as Project Eurydice, which, if allowed to reach fruition, would have
destroyed all life on the planet. They were systematically hunted
down and killed by Ryan and his band as they set charges to
detonate the weapons stored in the facility. The weapons
detonating, and the rebirth of the Volcano soon killed those who
survived the initial onslaught.
Dr. Ethel Tardy: The head researcher for the Wizard
Island Facility. She was killed after Doc Tanner shot her in the
back of the head with his Le Mat. She had encountered Ryan and
his friends and was about to use a molecular
Destabilizer on them when
Tanner crept up behind her and killed her. She was a fat, dumpy
little woman who was barely four feet tall. Pink jowls of fat
dangled on her shoulders Her hair was so thin, her scalp showed
through. Her eyes were blue, and appeared enormous because of
glasses she wore. For a woman of her tiny stature, she had
enormous breasts. Because of the size, she was forced to lean
back as she walked on short, stumpy legs. Her left arm was
withered and useless and she had to use a hearing aid, which was
pinned to her lapel. She wore a fawn colored lab coat buttoned
all the way up to the throat.
Harvey Cawdor: Ryan Cawdors elder brother. He
was shot by Ryan and fell into a pit containing huge mutie boars
where he was then torn apart. Harvey is very different from what
Ryan remembers him as looking. His right leg trailed, forcing him
to walk a strange shuffling, crab like walk. His right shoulder
was lifted in an unsightly hump. His mouth and nose was somewhat
deformed from a scar. This was a parting gift from Ryan, the
night that he destroyed Ryans left eye. The most
astonishing thing was his sheer size. He was grotesquely fat,
weighing nearly four hundred pounds.
Rachel Cawdor: The wife of Harvey Cawdor. She met
Ryan near the boar pit just after Ryan killed Harvey. Doc Tanner
killed her as she was about to shoot Ryan. She was taller than
Harvey, being slim and elegant. Her hair was black and lustrous,
cropped to her shoulders. Her skin was very pale, and her dark
eyes disappeared into the sockets. Her fingers were long and
elegant. She was also a jolt
addict. If Doc hadnt killed her, she would have been dead
within a year anyway. The people of the ville know her as the
Lady of Pain.
Jabez Pendragon Cawdor: The son of Rachel and Harvey
Cawdor. He was literally torn apart by Krysty as he attempts to
rape her. She wrapped his remains in a burial shroud she found in
the room, tossing the remains into the moat from her window. She
literally destroyed his body with her mutie strength. He was of
average height and weight, appearing to be in his late teens. His
face appeared to be oddly unbalanced, the right side being higher
and more angular. The corner of his eye was twisted and pulled
down so it appeared that he was continuously blinking. His skin
was incredibly pallid. His brown hair was receding and was kept
cut short.
The Pony Soldiers. After Cort Strasser took over
this group of Mercies and
whipped them into a coherent fighting force, they are wiped out
in an ambush after chasing Ryan and his friends right into the
ranchero of the Drowned Squaw Canyon Apache tribe. They were brutally destroyed as they have
been at war with the Apaches for many months, and the hate
between the two groups ran deep, and ran far. Out of the fifty
odd sec men, only Strasser managed to escape with his life, and
four others were captured, only to be tortured to death.
Rourke. This huge mountain of a man was killed in a
fist fight with Ryan Cawdor. He was supposed to beat Cawdor
within an inch of his life, but both he, and Cort Strasser
misjudged the man. Ryan beat him severely before killing the man
with a blow to his nose.
Sergeant Mclaglen. One of Cort Strasser's main men.
He was taken captive, one of only for to survive the attack on
the Drowned Squaw Ranchero. He was severely tortured by the
Apaches. He tried to make friends with Ryan while he was in the
hands of Strasser. Because of this, Ryan puts him out of his
misery by slitting the mans throat as they make their way out of
the Ranchero.
Pyra Quadde. This woman was the captain of the Salvation, the best whaling boat to have sailed out
of the ville of Claggarstville. She was responsible for shanghaiing Ryan and Donfil More, and forcing both to work on her ship.
After several days at sea, she made it known her intentions to
use Ryan in a very perverted sexual manner which few have ever
survived. Luckily for him, J.B. Dix and Krysty force the captain
of the Phoenix to follow Quadde's ship. A brief and bloody fight
ensues, and the salvation is captured, but not before Quadde and
her first mate manage to escape. Ryan, and his friends follow,
finally confronting Quadde and her first mate in a small cove on
an island. Here Ryan hits her with a whaling harpoon, knocking
her over the edge of the boat, where she is torn apart by a
school of mutie sharks.
Physically Quadde was a very ugly woman. She was five foot ten
and weighed in at one seventy. She was forty seven years old. Her
hair was a deep auburn but spoiled because it was dirty and oily.
Her complexion was sallow, tight in some areas, loose in others.
The furrows of her face were wrinkled and lined with dirt. Her
cheeks were covered in spots and boils. She actually had a small
mustache and her eyes were like pits of jet sunk into the fatty
flesh of her face. She wore knee length boots of black leather,
as well as a black skirt. She was also covered in several layers
of sweaters.
Cyrus Ogg. The first mate on the whaling ship, the
Salvation. He escaped with Pyra Quadde after the ship was taken
over by J.B. and the rest of the group. After being cornered in a
small cove, and seeing his captain killed (see above), he is
about to shoot Ryan, when he is in turn shot once through the
face. He joins his captain in death. Physically Ogg had fluffy
white hair and a round benevolent face. His full cherubic lips
always held the hint of a smile. He was five foot six and about
one hundred twenty pounds. He wore black pants and a black
jacket.
Jedediah Hernando Rodriguez. The owner of the Rising
Fluke. He was responsible for Ryan and Donfil's capture. He
encounters Krysty just after she killed a pair of sec men for
their weapons. He begs and pleads for his life, explaining that
he would have been killed by Quadde if he didn't go along with
her orders. She drives his own stiletto deep into his brain,
killing him for his treachery. He was a strange looking man. His
flesh was sallow and unhealthy, stretched tight across the planes
of his skull. He was about thirty and had no trace of a beard.
His eyes were brown and his brown hair was neatly cut and curled.
He wore a purple satin shirt open to the waist as well as a great
deal of jewelry.
Zombie. The leader of the Last Hero's a reborn
branch of the hell's angels. He kills Edgar Brennan, the Baron of Snakefish after encountering him and Ryan's party
just after dawn as they make their way through the old amusement
park to the gasoline refinery. He shoots Brennan in the back and
is stupid enough to gloat about it. J.B. gets revenge for Carla and shoots him once in the throat and once
in the stomach.
The Last Hero's. The sec men under the control of
the Mote's. They provided protection as well as security for the
ville of Snakefish. Three are lost to an attack by Stickies near Death Valley, and the rest are killed
while Ryan and his band make good their escape and destroy the
oil refinery. The only member to survive is Riddler who Ryan allows to leave unmolested.
Norman Mote. The leader of the snake cult. He is
killed by Ryan who shoots him through the head when he tries to
get revenge for Doc killing his son, Joshua. Over the years, the
Motes slowly wrestled the control of the ville from Baron
Brennan, until they finally have most of the townsfolk in their
control. He stood a little over average height, and weighed in
about two hundred forty. He is around fifty five. His well kept
hair is uniformly gray. He wore a suit of light gray which was
tailored to hide his stubby legs and spreading waste line. His
eyes were puffy, and his hands were soft and manicured.
Joshua Mote. The son of Norman and Marianne Mote,
the leaders of snake cult. He had an illicit affair with Lori and
was quite angry when Doc and Ryan walked right in the middle of
them coupling. He promised to kill the old man for his intrusion.
Well, after the refinery was destroyed, the Motes tried to save
part of their pornography collection. Doc kills him with a single
shot from his Le Mat. He was in his early twenties and had
sagging, unhealthy appearing skin, and puffy eyes. He wore a
shirt of pale blue and a thong around his neck which held a huge
chunk of turquoise. He had blond hair and wore a black Stetson
hat.
Marianne Mote. The wife of Norman and mother to
Joshua. She was responsible for choosing the victim who would be
the next participant in the 'Feeding' which was nothing more than
a ruse to get rid of those who didn't agree with their views. She
is about to kill Ryan after witnessing the dispatching of her
husband and son. Rick kills her with a single blast from his
shotgun. She was a short woman, only four foot ten in height. She
wore heavy makeup which simply made her look like an aging whore.
She wore a gown which was loose around her and was either made of
snake skin or a close imitation. Her piled up blond hair was
obviously a wig.
Aliev.
Zimyanin's mutie Mongolia tracker. He was
killed by Ryan as he attempts to rescue Zimyanin. It was out of
loyalty and the fact that if anything happened to Zimyanin, he
would no longer have a protector and would soon be staring up
into the rain.
The Wolf Pack. A group of murderous children who are
used by the party to hunt down and kill undesirable types. After
witnessing a small pack kill a old and disabled man, Ryan knows
to keep his eyes out for them. While trying to get some food, he
runs into a separate pack. The leader, a young girl of thirteen
tries to force him to reveal his face. He grabs her and shoots
her through the back of the neck killing the little monster. He
then fires into the pack, killing another eight. A small pack of
eighteen of these pint sized killers are sent into the Mansion
where Ryan's party is held up. After detonating a Magnesium
grenade, Ryan and J.B. go around and execute them one at a time.
The Wise Woman of
Markland. This ancient crone was choked to death by Mildred Wyeth after she insisted that Mildred was the
cause of the sickness and disease that had been afflicting the
ville. The old woman tried to get Jak to kill Mildred but he was
able to shake off the effects of the drug he was given.
Jorund Thoraldson, the baron of Markland was killed
after catching an Implode Grenade Ryan Cawdor tossed to him. This
was done in revenge for the fact that the baron insisted that the
group of friends stay behind and become members of the ville, and
for trying to sacrifice Mildred because they believed she was a
demon. The man stood at six foot five inches in height and
weighed in at nearly three hundred pounds, not all of it fat. His
eye's were blue and he had shoulder length white blond hair. He
wore a shaggy wool coat and leather pants, which were tucked into
knee length suede boots. He carried a long two handed sword and a
.38 calibre colt was strapped to his belt.
Ferryman. The head
secman of the ville of Towse. He was responsible for the deaths of many Apache
Indians living near the ville. He lead the attack on Trader's
convoy and was chased down by Ryan Cawdor who killed him by
shooting him three times. Once in the chest, once in the shoulder
and finally in the face. Like Ryan, he was missing his left eye.
He was around thirty years old and more than likely had Indian
blood in him as he had really dark skin.
Alias Carson. The baron of the ville of Towse. He tried to
ambush Trader's convoy so he could take the war wags for his own
to strengthen his grip on the surrounding land. He is executed by
Trader for this.
Dark Cloud. This Apache warrior was killed in a duel
with Ryan Cawdor. The Apache's mistake Ryan for Ferryman and
trader is able to convince them not to kill him outright. That is
when he is forced to fight. After disabling him by breaking his
knee, Ryan refuses to kill him in cold blood. He attempts to help
the huge warrior to his feet but the Apache tries to pull him
down to finish him off. Ryan uses the Indians own huge knife to
finish him off.
The Ballinger
Family. Just after leaving the ruined redoubt that self
destructed in Time Nomads, Ryan and his friends come across the
Ranch of R.G. Ballinger and his two sons Jim and Larry, as well
as his crippled daughter Christina. He offers to let them stay in
the bunk houses so they can begin their trading in the morning.
That night, his two boy's decide to pay Krysty and Mildred a
visit. Krysty kills one by breaking his neck, and Mildred
strangles the other. The father, R.G. is killed by Jak with a
throwing knife. Christina is happy to see her abusive and
murderous family killed.
Strasser's gang.
Over half the gang is killed during the attack initiated by
Mildred after seeing six innocent people executed by Strasser.
The few that survived run for their locomotive and head into the
hills. After Ryan and the band track the gang down to a ruined
ville, all but four members are killed when they cause the train
to derail and fall to the bottom of a deep gorge after blowing
the rails.
Rafe. One of
Strasser's last surviving men. He is killed by huge mutie
wolves when Cort orders
him to attack them. Strasser uses this diversion to escape.
Rosa. This Mexican
woman was Cort Strasser's lover (if he even knew what the word
meant). She shared his pleasure in inflicting pain and was not
above any sexual act, no matter how deviant it was. Mildred
strangled the woman to death after the raft they were on went
over a water fall.
Cort Strasser.
After all this time, the evil man meets his end. He and Ryan have
a knife fight on an old, unstable bridge. During the fight, he
manages to cut Ryan on the arm, and Ryan cuts him badly across
the stomach. The bridge they are on collapses and they fall. Ryan
is able to hold onto the cable, but Strasser lands in the
quicksand. As he is sinking, He first asks Ryan to help him, then
to put a bullet through his head. Ryan refuses. In the end, he
cuts his own throat and sinks below the sand, but not before
throwing his knife at Ryan, knicking him. One of Ryan's oldest
enemies is finally sent to hell.
Dred and Retha. These were the first two people Ryan
and the others encountered upon leaving the ruined mansion
housing the gateway. Dred took the group back to one of his three homes
and a young girl named Retha joined him a short time later. He
claimed to be the leader of a street gang known as the 'Hawks'.
They spend a full night and day together and then on the second
night while they are in the ruins of a museum, Dred and Retha
grab Ryan's G-12 and plan to kill the group. Doc kills Dred using
his sword cane, and Ryan uses his Panga to kill Retha. Both kids
are undernourished and no older than eighteen.
Bluff. A little old scavenger who met Ryan and the
others inside the home of the people who had been taking care of
Dean. After drinking too much Joltsky, he lets it be known that he betrayed the
people who lived in the ruined basement to the Scalies. Ryan,
overcome by a killing rage, kills the little scavenger with his
bare hands for the betrayal. The body is dumped outside the
basement and left for the mutant alligators that live in the sewers.
One of Travens members a young girl named Sky too a
liking to Doc Tanner. One evening after a Dark Snaking she enters
his room and first performs oral sex on him then mounts him.
While she is riding Doc, he notices that she is wearing a
necklace from one of the old people that he'd seen earlier in the
day. It is coated in fresh blood. She goes wild and tries to kill
him, nearly succeeding. He is able to get his sword cane and
destroys her eye, then runs it through her, killing her. They
manage to hide the corpse.
Adam Traven and his 'posse' This young influential
control freak slowly began to take over control of the
Greenglades theme park in Florida from Baron Larry Zapp. He first got him hooked on Dreem
and then slowly began to
win over his sec men. Larry was fully aware of what was going on,
but didn't have the strength to prevent it. His 'posse' delighted
in 'dark snaking' which involved sneaking into a home, exploring
it and then butchering the inhabitants and stealing anything they
may have had that was valuable. He made the fatal mistake of
forcing Ryan to come with him in order to save his friends.
Inside Ryan kills six of seven members of the 'posse', with only
Traven and one other escaping back to centerpoint, the heart of
the ville. Her Ryan and the others encounter him and his last
member. There is a brief but bloody fight where a lot of sec men
die, the last member of the posse, and Adam himself. Larry Zapp
uses his considerable weight to trap Traven, who in turns shoots
him eight times. Ryan and the others pull him out from beneath
Zapp and shoot him through both knees, elbows and three times in
the stomach, leave him to die alone and in great agony. Before he
died he stood at about five foot six, and was quite skinny,
weighing in about one hundred twenty five pounds. He hand long
black hair that curled around his shoulders and a long drooping
moustache that hung over his full, feminine lips. His eyes were
dark brown with long lashes. He wore stained and torn jeans with
patches on the knees, a shirt with ruffles down the front and a
black leather jacket.
Eldar Bluffield. This religious leader and his flock
were captured by Zimyanin's 'recruiters' almost a month before
Ryan met him. He tried to force Kate to join his band. Ryan was
able to prevent this, cutting off three of Bluffields left hand
fingers. Later that night Ryan hangs the man. He was six and a
half feet tall and had a mane of hair and a beard of pure white,
like snow.
Gergori Zimyanin. Somehow he managed to survive the mutant's attack
and escape the redoubt. He since that time took over control of a
sulphur mine. Over a period of months, he learned to use the
redoubts, and discovered the LD or Last Destination function and
used the redoubts to bring slaves to the mines. He and Ryan
destroyed on of the sec hunter droids Ryan activated
accidentally, and ended up falling to his death.
Charlie. This highly intelligent stickie was the
leader of a huge compound of stickies. He was in his early
twenties. He stood at six foot ten inches in height and was so
skinny he was skeletal in appearance. He wore a elegant vest, and
dark blue jeans. A gold medallion hung from around his neck. He
had a head of long blond hair. He had tried to sacrifice Ryan and
a group of prisoners to show his power to his followers, but when
a group of lepers attack, they manage to escape, and the majority
of his people were killed. He disappeared for to months and was
killed by Christina when he threatened her and her new born
daughter, Jenny.
Billy, the leader of the Midnites. This stunningly beautiful woman (except
for the protruding eyes) stood at five foot eleven in height, and
had a tumbling mane of chestnut brown hair. She wore a black
sweater, pants, and black leather boots. This woman had Krysty
captured in order to lead her and her tribe out of the ruins of
Chicago to the west, where they could start anew. She is later
killed by Ryan when he and the others make their way deep into
the lair to free Krysty.
Baron Alfred Nelson. The baron of the Vista barony in the Colorado
Rockies. He recently had lost his son to a group of hired killers
from Yuma and was grieving over the loss. He sends Ryan and the
other male members of the group to bring the killers back for
justice. However, even if they did succeed, he had no intentions
of keeping his word. He planned to kill them, keep Mildred and
Krysty for himself, and adopt Dean as his son. He loses it and
Krysty jams a little .22 calibre pistol in his mouth. She pulls
the trigger and the bullet lodges in his brain, killing him, but
not before he kills his own mother for giving away his plans.
Baron Wizard Sidler. The baron of Yuma. He hired a group of six blood
eyed killers to hunt down and torture Zebe Nelson, the son of
Alfred Nelson to death. After his capture Ryan and the others try
to take him back to Yuma. He is able to escape and ends up
cutting the throat of Ellie Morte.
Doc Tanner, who had been enjoying a relationship with the woman,
blows his head off with the Le Mat.
Jim Jennison. J.B.
Dix's half brother! This man hired out several people to try and
track down J.B. and kill him while they were staying in the ville
of Yuma. After his capture at the hands of J.B. and Ryan, he
tries to pursuade his brother into letting him go. In the end,
after the others are killed, J.B. takes great pleasure in
personally cutting Jim in half with the M-4000 scattergun. Before
leaving he spits in his dead half brothers eyes. Jim stood at
five foot eight, and was lean and pale, just like J.B. He
squinted as if his eye site was bad and he carried a HK P9S.
Ossie Grant. This
man had his head blown off by Ryan when he was too slow to escape
the wreckage of the wagon after Knuckles lost control of it and
it went over the hill side. He was about five eleven and had
mismatched eyes one emerald green, the other blue. He wore a
bandoleer of throwing knives and carried a model 58 SW handgun.
Julio. Its quite
odd to see a well built man with blond hair and blue eyes with a
Spanish name. He wore a flashy blue silk shirt and carried a
Texas longhorn border special .38 calibre handgun, which is later
taken by Michael Brothers to be used as his own. He made the
mistake of showing himself while trying to hide from J.B. and
Ryan. He is killed by Ryan for that mistake.
Twenty Gooseneck.
This mutant, after seeing two of his friends killed by Ryan and
J.B. goes totally berserk. He tries to attack them by rushing,
brandishing a meat cleaver. Ryan breaks his jaw using the butt of
his rifle, then J.B. shoots him, killing the man. His eyes were
partially covered by a thin veil of skin, like the wings of an
insect. His fingers were webbed as well. He had a triple row of
serrated needle teeth, and his hair was totally colourless. He
carried a Walther P 88, as well as a Luna 300 target pistol.
Reena Miller. The
only female member of the band of killers. She was close to six
feet in height and had a beautiful head of midnight black hair
which she wore to her waist. Her eyes were close to gold in
colour, and had tiny spots of silver mixed in. She wore a black
leather jacket and cream coloured pants, which were tucked into
black combat boots. For weapons she carried a colt cobra. After
she killed the cripple boy knuckles, J.B. fires off nearly a full clip from his Uzi,
cutting the cold hearted killer to pieces.
The former sec
boss, Rick Coburn hunted Ryan and the band all the way to the
redoubt. Rick is able to track Ryan right into the redoubt itself
where he confronts him. They get into a fight, and when Rick
begins to lose, he pulls out a hold out pistol and is about to
fire at Ryan when he is attacked by the mutant
worms that live in the
walls of the redoubt. They kill him very quickly.
Red Jack Yoville.
The leader of a group of pirates that have been terrorising the
Florida keys. He was killed by Ryan Cawdor after being knocked to
the ground by a powerful earthquake. While Ryan and the others
were attempting to reach his wag, Ryan stops long enough to slit
the pirate's throat.Yoville had a long foxy face and red dyed
hair. He was wearing scarlet pants and a scarlet shirt.
The Florida Key
Pirates. Over a period of several days, Ryan's band inflicted
quite a number of casualties in small hit and run skirmishes.
Yoville lead a final raid against the institute, bringing in his
entire force. Three of his four wags were destroyed, and when a
horrible quake hits, the three boats he sent to attack from the
sea are swamped and sunk. As Ryan and his band race towards
Yoville's last intact wag, they wipe out the surviving Pirates.
Baron Nathan Mandeville. The baron of Sun Crest ville. He ordered
Ryan and the others to be set free, armed with only their knives,
and were to be hunted down. But Ryan and the group turned the
tables. They managed to sneak back into the ville and get their
weapons. They also set fire to the ville. Doc Tanner kills the
baron with his new Le Mat.
Marie Mandeville.
The daughter of Baron Nathan Mandeville. Before the group was
forced out on the hunt, she fucked Michael four times and showed
him some very evil porno vids. This proved to the teenager how
evil she was. After her father and the Sec Man, Harry were
killed, Michael went after her and snapped her neck, as he
couldn't let such an evil woman continue to live. When they first
met her she was wearing a shirt and pants of dark maroon, as well
as low heeled boots of the same colour, adorned with Mexican
spurs. She was pale and her eyes were narrow, giving her a
slightly oriental appearance. Her hair was something else. Like
Krysty's, but only incredibly black and luxurious.
Harry Guiteau. The
head sec man for Sun Crest. He was one of the greatest shots in
all the Deathlands, and was only able to match with Mildred in a
shooting competition. He tried to capture Dean and use him to
force the others to drop their weapons when Mildred shot him
twice. The first shot taking off his index finger and the trigger
of his Aramlite, the second blowing through his forehead. His
left cheek was badly scarred, and he was missing two fingers off
his left hand.
Jehu. This young
man was the leader of the Quindely ville. He answered to only one other person, a
man named Moses who was the ville's god. He was killed,
reluctantly, by Ryan after Moses orders him to go and get the
others to kill the outlanders. He refused to listen to reason, so
Ryan shot him. As the young man went down, he knocked over a
torch, setting Moses home on fire.
Moses. The self
proclaimed 'god' of Quindely ville. After Ryan's band returns from rescuing
their friends and freeing the children that were taken captive by
the Stickies they return to the ville to talk to Moses. Doc blows
out the mirrored window to expose the ville's god. He is a
disgusting tub of a man, only about four feet in height, but
weighing over three hundred pounds. He had the face and eyes of
an old man, but his teeth were crooked and yellow, and his
fingernails were very long and jagged. He is killed in the fire
that consumes his home.
The New Mexico
Bandits. This band of triple evil cut-throats and thieves have
been terrorizing New Mexico for just over eight months. They made
the fatal mistake of attacking and killing Christina
Lauren and her daughter
Jenny. Ryan Cawdor and his band join forces with a party of
Navaho warriors and over a period of two days, kill eleven of the
General's men, then inside the Generals base, they kill nine
more. Dean Cawdor kills two who tried to sneak up on him. They
are wiped from the face of New Mexico.
The General. This
man originally came from Mexico but he'd been chased out by the
federals. He set up shop in the J.C. Wright caverns twenty months
previously and slowly built up a band of hired killers. After his
small army is wiped out, he finally comes out of the caverns and
is killed when Jak Lauren hits him in the right eye with a
throwing Knife. The man was slender and had an olive complexion,
with a trim goatee and a moustache.
Malachi Gribble.
This strange little taxidermist had restored a small portion of
the ruined ville. Over the years he had killed over eighty
people, stuffing nearly half that number for his macabre little
ville. He tried to sneak into Ryan and J.B.'s room, but Ryan was
awake at the time and catches the little man. They truss him up
and then in the morning after hearing how many people he had
killed, they shoot him through the head. He was fifty three years
old and wore bottle bottom thick glasses which magnified his
little blue eyes. He wore a three piece suit from the same era as
his displays.
The Tenbo boys,
Teddy and Robby. They were the step son's of Baron Tenbo. Ever since the baron had killed their
mother while she was having sex with her third child, they had
been plotting to kill the baron and take over. Because of Ryan
and J.B.'s arrival they decided to cut the baron's throat and
then take out the two outlanders, blaming them for the death of
their father. It doesn't work the way they planned to work it.
Ryan is able to kill both, and the sec men believe Ryan about
what had happened.
Slaves of Sin.
This group of fourteen men had passed Ryan and J.B. at the
beginning of their journey. They are a group of fladgies who stop
near Jak's ranch for the night. After Jak and Mildred were
captured by the crazies, the leader sent four men to get Doc,
Krysty, and Dean. They are killed. Krysty comes up with a
brilliant ruse involving Dean pretending to be the messiah, and
they get the drop on the fladgies, killing every last one of
them.
Baron Torrence and his two daughters. The baron of the Hightower
hotel tried to force Ryan and Trader into a shotgun wedding with
his two hideous daughters. The pair end up killing both girls in
their escape attempt, and then encounter the baron, who they
simply shoot as he demands to know what happened to his little
girls.
The Ellison Twins.
These two men were identical to each other. As they should be.
One was cloned from the other. They were killed when the group
decide to make a break for it and rescue Krysty from the
scientists, and what ever they had planned. The first died when
Jak buried a throwing knife in his eye, the second moments later
when Doc cuts him in half with the Le Mat.
Buford Landrow.
This scientist was the first one the group met. But he was also
pivotal in the betrayal. He was killed when the cloned Krysty
cuts him to pieces after he got in her way when she was trying to
take out Ryan.
David Crichton.
The leader of the institute. When a fight breaks out in his
private room, and more than ten of his sec men, as well as the
Krysty clone and Landrow are killed, he suffers a stroke and
dies.
Krysty's clone.
Her twin was programmed to try and kill Ryan Cawdor on sight. She
might have succeeded if Landrow hadn't gotten in her way. The
real Krysty goes after her, and finally manages to kill her after
a brief struggle.
Dorthea Gibson.
One of the scientists. She owed Trader and Ryan a great debt for
keeping her alive after the hunt for the mutant grizzly went
terribly wrong, but she was going to betray them to the sec men
because she didn't want to see any more of her people killed.
Trader stabs her in the back.
The brushwooders.
This group of wildfolks wanted to take over the Barony of Weyman.
They tried to enlist Ryan and his bands assistance in the matter,
but when Straub attempts to take Jak and Krysty's hair, they race
out of the ville, killing several as they go. The brushwooders
are eventually wiped out, nearly to a man when Ryan and Dean set
a fire, causing the 'General', a huge mutant pig and his herd of
swine to stampede right through the ville, destroying it and
nearly all the inhabitants.
Baron Sean Sharpe.
This man allowed the group to stay in his ville after they
rescued one of his sec men, a man named Joshua Morgan. The man is
suffering from schizophrenia and goes from one mood to another.
After he sends out his sec men to capture Jak and a Doomie named
Emma, Ryan and J.B. go to rescue them. Sharpe ends up beating the
doomie to death and is himself killed when Jak hits him with a
throwing knife, right in the mouth, causing him to fall into the
exhibit holding his favourite mutant. The mutant destroys him.
Joaquin. Baron
Sharpe's head sec man. He was responsible for the capture of Doc,
Jak and Emma. He is killed when Ryan and J.B. run into the man
and a small group of sec men in the ville.
Itzcoatl. The
leader of the natives that considered Jak to be a god. He was a
fairly good man, but in the end, poisoned Jak, forcing the others
to leave so he could sacrifice the boy to the other gods. He is
killed when Ryan shoots the man in the chest, knocking him into a
blazing thermite fire.
The slavers and
their leader Rodrigo Bivar. He and his band had been taking
natives from the local villes for about five months time. Several
slavers were killed during that period of time, but because the
slavers were far better armed than the natives, it was a futile
gesture. The slavers are wiped out to a man after Ryan and his
band help the natives turn their ville into a death trap. Bivar
is personally killed by Ryan in a one on one fight.
The 'Family'. This
small group of four genetically engineered 'Vampires' are all
that are left of a group of twelve that were created in redoubt
47, located in the Louisiana Bayous. Three were male, Thomas,
Eleric, and Melmoth, and one female, named Mary. They all shared
the same last name of Cornelius. One, Thomas was killed when J.B.
jams a thermite bomb into his mouth, Krysty kills the woman by
crushing her head beneath a huge marble table, Mildred shoots
Eleric in both eyes, then he falls over a cliff. Melmoth is still
alive at the end of the novel, and is attacking Ryan as they
jump.
A large gang of
Bandits, consisting of over thirty humans and about a dozen
Stickies had been raiding all along the mountains of Colorado for
several months. They took over the ville of Harmony as their base
of operations. Over a period of several days at least eight of
the raiders are killed by Ryan and his friends. Finally, after
finding the brutally raped and murdered bodies of five Quaker
females, they decide to attack and wipe the blight off the face
of the Deathlands. Early in the morning the group slip into
Harmony ville and wipe the entire party out, with barely a shot
being fired from the bandits.
The Ronin gang.
This group of renegade lordless samurai were wiped out after
finally penetrating the fortress of Shogun Mashashige. The leader
of the ronin was the shoguns brother Ryuku. The last of the Ronin
are wiped out when they demand that the outlanders leave, and
leave their blasters behind. Ryan and the others don't like that
idea at all and open up on them, killing them to the last man.
The samurai that
they met near the ruins of Washington DC, Takei Yashimoto is
killed by Mildred when he confronts the group trying to fight
their way to the besieged shogun. He is thirsty for vengeance,
and want's to kill Ryan and his band in retaliation for the death
of his brother. They don't have the time to play with him and
Mildred shoots him, letting him die as they continue to fight
their way throught the fortress.
Located near the
Tennessee river is a tiny little church. The man who runs the
church is a fat, evil bastard named Father Sandor. He tortures
people to death. When he tries to force Ryan and Krysty into the
crypt below his church to practice his evil arts on them, he
nearly succeeds until he is distracted by on of his previous
victims, giving Ryan the chance he needs to attack and kill the
sadistic priest.
Straub. The man
survived the fight with Trader, but never does reveal what
happened to the old man. He is a changed man, having been
physically mutilated by the Countess Katya Beausoleil, including
having been castrated by her. He seems somewhat harmless to the
others until he hypnotises Ryan into believing that all his
friends have been murdered. When he leaves Ryan with the
Countess, he goes to perform the horrors he showed to Ryan. When
he tries to take out Doc, the old man cuts him in half with his
blaster.
The Countess,
Katya. She is killed after kicking Ryan in the wounded leg after
he still refuses to mate with her. The pain is so intense that it
snaps him out of his drugged state. He chases her down to the
gorge near her home, where he proceeds to beat her to death. But
before she dies, she knocks him over the edge of the gorge,
taking him with her.
Captain Melville
Huston. This man took a bribe from Gert Wolfram and the Magus to
betray and help them capture the group. He is confronted by Ryan
and J.B. after the others are taken away and they shoot him
through the head, killing him and dumping his body over the edge
of the boat, without anyone seeing it happen.
Gert Wolfram. This
fat evil man is killed when he tries to attack Ryan, while the
others are trying to escape. He is hanging onto a rope that is
attached to a balloon. Ryan cuts the rope, letting the man fall
to the ground, right were his former slaves, a huge group of
Stickies are waiting. His passing is long and hard. Very hard.
Fleur. This tall,
one eyed woman was Lars Hellstrom's warlord. She not only tried
to kill Ryan and his band when the first met, but later, when
Lars offered Ryan the position of Warchief, equal to hers, she
first wanted to mate with Ryan, to find out if she could trust
him. After he forcefully refuses, she sets up a trap where he is
forced to kill a member of the community. But instead of putting
Ryan to death, Lars allows them to have a duel on motor cycles,
which Ryan wins, but doesn't kill her. Disgraced, she is thrown
in with the others while Ryan and Mildred are off in Mount
Rushmore. She helps the others as best she can, but is eventually
killed by Lars when he pins her between his wag and the wall of
the canyon.
A man known only
as Dog is killed by Ryan after Fleur asks him to go and bring him
back to the family, as he is under the influence of a drug known
as werewolf weed. The man is more animal than human, and attacks
Ryan, forcing the one eyed man to kill him in self defence.
The Commander.
This man survived since the skydark by means of organ transplant,
cybernetic enhancement and cryonics. He has plans to breed
various forms of mutants to help him take control of the
Deathlands, and return it to it's former predark glory. The man
also considered himself the President of the United States. Ryan
is sickened at what the man plans to do, and by what the man
showed him. He kills the Commander, and several of the men under
his command while inside the Rushmore facility.
A man known only
as pepper. He was the head of the sec men who guarded Wildroot.
He lead the hunting party that was after the young boy named
Tarragon who was to have been put to death because he was born,
not cloned, and was a doomie as well. He tried to stop Ryan and
the others from getting at the prince, and was in the end, gutted
by Ryan, killing the huge man.
Prince Victor
Boldt. The ruler of the ville known as Wildroot. He had a plan to
release a mutated Bubonic plague on the world that in a few
decades would end up wiping out the survivors. He is killed by
Mildred when he is cornered in the room containing a genetically
engineered plant creature that also happens to have part of his
fathers DNA. The Plague is stopped.
Kaa's Stickie
Army. The vast majority of this six thousand plus army are caught
and wiped out inside the twenty five story hotel that was Baron
Willie Elijah's home. They killed anyone they could find all the
way up to the top of the building, where they were crammed in
like sardines. J.B. sends up an elevator filled with flammable
material which he then shoots at, causing it to explode. The
building catches fire, and the mutants are wiped out.
Baron Willie
Eljah. The baron is killed by his own Grand Daughter/Wife when he
refuses to kill her to save her from a horrible death at the
hands of the invading Stickie army. She uses a Ruger Redhawk to
shoot Willie in the stomach, killing him.
The Red Cadre, led
by a man named Hatchet Jack. They used to use the ville of Amicus
as a base to winter in, until they attacked a native group. They
were then forced to leave and not return. But when Ryan and his
band attacked them, then took an ancient map, the Cadre followed
them back to Amicus and attacked. They nearly succeeded in
destroying the ville, but were in the end beaten off by Ryan and
his friends. The leader is shot to death by a woman he had
captured earlier, a woman named Felicity. She is in turn killed
by him. The few surviving members of the Cadre are wiped out by
Touch the Sky's men.
Touch the Sky or
Joe as he is known by with the white men. He wanted to use the
power of the earth located in the valley of Ti Ra Wa to reshape
the Deathlands. His wishes are good, but it just can't be done.
He basically hires Ryan and his band with promises of gold to
help him fight the wolf Soldiers. But in the valley, they soon
learn that Joe is the threat and switch sides and fight against
Joe and his men. Joe is killed deep in the heart of the caverns
in the valley by Ryan.
A man named
Solomon, who happened to be a Physical Education teacher at the
Brody School. He was actually working for Baron Connrad and led
the attack to capture ten boys that were to make up the baron's
team at the big games. He is cut in half by Dean when the Baron
hands him a shotgun with one shell in it, and tells him to pull
the trigger.
Baron Connrad is
later killed by Ryan in a knife fight. A huge number of the
various barons men are also killed in the Arena by Ryan and other
teams, as they resent the fact that even if they win, they would
still die.
A huge number of
the men under the command of Admiral Poseidon. They are killed
when Ryan, Shuana, JB, Mildred, and Alan Carter attack. Despite
the fact that Ryan and Shauna are captured by the men, the others
are still able to plant grenades around the base, and inflict
heavy casualties on the personnel stationed there.
Mimses. This black
man was part of the original Trio of scavengers that Alpha took
as his followers. He grew to a position of power in the City of
Aten. The man allowed the power to go to his head, corrupting him
as power is apt to do. He took an instant shining to Mildred, and
was determined to bed her. When Nefron orders him to interrogate
her and kill her if he can't get the information out of her that
they need, to kill her. Mildred uses her sweat soaked skin to
slip out of the bonds and free herself. She then strangles the
man with his own whip.
Alpha, or
Akhnaton, is killed by Krysty during the capstone and wedding
ceremony. Ryan first attacks the man, refusing to let him take
the woman he loves. Ryan is getting the living hell beat out of
him, so Krysty uses her mutant strength to make herself more than
an even match for Alpha. She kills him by literally ripping his
happy sacs right off, then gouges his eyes out. Not even the
genetically engineered man can survive that sort of punishment.
Lester Johnson. It
was thought that this man died at the wheel controlling the
elevator in the Freedom city hotel. It turns out that he managed
to survive, but was horribly disfigured due to the fire that J.B.
started to wipe out the Stickie army led by Kaa. He was nursed
back to health by another survivor of the failed attack, a
Stickie. Over the months that passed since the destruction of the
hotel, he healed and gathered a small army of muties to help him
continue Kaa's war. When he learns that Ryan Cawdor is in the
Freedom mall, he decides to attack right there so he could get
revenge. The army attacks, and he confronted Ryan. They fight,
and the man is shot to death by Krysty.
The ville of
Hazard had a small gang of sec men controlled by Kirkland. Just
before entering the ville to trade for ammunition for their
weapons Ryan and the others were forced to fight and kill the
gang, as they wanted to take all the trade goods for themselves.
In the Arctic, an
Inuit tribe had been under siege for generations by a group of
Russian sailors who were trapped in the ice during the holocaust.
Ryan and J.B. have no choice but to lead an attack on the sailors
as they had to have access to the technological equipment stored
on board the ship so they could repair the gateway circuitry and
jump off the iceberg before the gateway sank below the surface of
the ocean once and for all. In the fight the descendants of the
Russians are wiped out to a man including their leader Vitkin,
and the ship sinks just after J.B. is able to enact the repairs.
In a diner located
hours away from the ville of Hopeville a woman named Mom made a
living. She made incredible jerky, but it turns out that the meat
used was human flesh. Ryan discovers her gristly secret late at
night and is nearly killed by the big woman before a timely
intervention from Doc Tanner and his trusty sword cane.
A huge woman named
Sprite. She challenged Krysty to a fight to the death. Krysty has
no choice but to accept. Sprite nearly kills Krysty, and in order
to save her own life she uses her Gaia strength and not only
disables the bigger woman easily, but then snaps her neck like a
twig.
A pair of Apache
Warriors were killed by Doc Tanner when they refused to listen to
him when he tried to explain that he wasn't part of the Children
of the Rock but instead trying to escape from them. He didn't
want to, but they gave him no choice.
Two of Joshua
Wolfe's sec men, Owsley and Waits are killed by Doc after they
cornered him in Maya Tennant's home. He killed the first one,
Wait as they were coming out of her ruined cabin, the second,
Owsley, just after he kills Maya.
Joshua Wolfe. This
man was the leader of the Children of the Rock Cult. He tried to
get his revenge on Ryan Cawdor and his friends for the loss of
his hand to Trader nearly two decades before. He forced the group
to participate in tests, in which Krysty nearly lost her life. He
was gunned down from nearly a mile off by Ryan as he tried to put
out the fire that was consuming his home in Hopeville.
Trader Shabazz and his
crew. This bear like man had crossed paths many times with the Trader and
there was an ongoing animosity between the two men. He attempted to pull a
fast one on the Trader by gassing the convoy and forcing Trader to use his
knowledge and vehicles to break into the redoubt known as Spear Point. But
Trader had the man by the short hairs. He turned the situation to his
advantage. The man is killed by a white fog like guardian that was
activated by the prisoner they used to get into the redoubt. Those who
were with him were killed by the fog.
Baron Zeal. This man ran a huge
oil refinery that pumped out poor grade gasoline near Virtue lake. Even in
the Deathlands fuel, no matter what the quality was worth it's weight in gold.
The man was killed when he was chased back to the ville where Ryan and the
others had placed explosives around his refinery. They blew the charges and
destroyed the refinery. He was trapped in a huge metal drum that he used
to torture one of traders men to death in.
Idaho Falls Coldhearts. There was
a large number of scavengers and cold hearts that lived in the ruins of Idaho
Falls in a wreaking yard. The group had been attacked by both Ryan's
people as well as a baron's sec men. Most of the Coldhearts were killed When
Ryan's group fought their way into the main base to get shelter from the storm.
Barbarosa and his Pirates.
After attacking Donovan, one of the leaders of the Heimdall foundation Ryan and
his crew beat off the pirates and helped the the ship water worthy. They
went to the temporary camp that the Heimdall foundation set up near a natural
cistern they dammed up for the water during the summer months. Ryan lead
an attack early in the morning which killed a large number of the pirates, then
led the remaining pirates into two separate ambushes where the vast majority of
the pirates were killed.
In the ville of Rockville, the
companions stay at an inn. Jak catches the eyes of one of the young girls
working there and this pisses off a group of mercies. They decide to start the
dance with the group. It is a brief but deadly firefight and the mercenaries are
wiped out. The man who hired the mercies is horrified to learn that his hired
guns are dead. Instead he hires Ryan's crew on, as he needs guns for the trip to
Front Royal.
As the group travel through the
mountain passes towards Front Royal, they are ambushed by a large group of
coldheart cannies. The cannies started the ambush by rolling boulders down the
hill. Ryan and the rest drive towards the boulders, avoiding them. The cannies
at the top are wiped out. As they look around a second wave attacks. They do the
same thing, roll boulders down towards them. The second wave is wiped out as
well. It's after this that they discover that they are cannies and rescue
a sec man from Front Royal that had been held prisoner.
Lieutenant Ki, Overton's second
in command is killed by Doc Tanner during the escape from Front Royal. Not much
information on this man.
The group follow Overton and the
surviving blue shirts to his small base outside of Front Royal in neutral
territory. Here a three way battle commences when troops from Casanova Ville
arrive. Ryan and his loyal troops join Overton's people and fight them off.
After the battle Overton breaks his word and tries to kill Ryan. One of
Overton's own men cut him down. The wounds are deadly but he survives long
enough to get the group wondering how he knows about the mat-trans system.
Mildred takes pity on him and gives him poison to end the pain.
A group of primitives control a
section of the road in Virginia. After a brutal change in leadership the new
leader decides he wants to try and stop Ryan and the group's LAV 25. The group
smashes through the road block and inflicts heavy losses on the group. The
leader is caught under the wheels and is badly injured. Another man takes the
opportunity to kill him and take mantel of leadership for himself.
The mutant known as Sullivan was
working as a doctor in Front Royal, killing many of the wounded while he waited
to get his hands on Nathan Cawdor. He gets word from one of the whores acting as
a nurse that there is a trap being set up for him. He kills her and tries to
escape and is captured by Nathan's people. The mutant is dragged in chains to
face Nathan, thinking he can kill the man. Instead Nathan forces the mutant to
try and escape after announcing that the will end up burying him alive. Nathan
shoots the man and kills him.
A group of mercie cannies are
captured by the blue shirts, having mistaken them for Ryan's group. They escape
and meet up with Ryan's people on the roadway. A running fight eventually winds
down with the hummer they are using being damaged beyond repair and the cannies
wiped out. They put the dead in the Hummer and roll it on a mined bridge, hoping
that Silas' people will think that the corpses belong to Ryan's group.
The group comes to Shiloh and
discovers that Silas has set up a huge base. Ryan spots the scientist and fires
upon the man, killing him with four well placed shots.
Collette. This former slave who
became the security chief for Sheffield. She had plans to use whatever she
found inside the redoubt to help kill Sheffield and allow her to become the new
baron. She was sick of being used as a sexual plaything. After killing the sec
men she was with she accessed the redoubt where Ryan and company had held up to
escape the kite attack. She tried to take out Dean who was left behind while his
father and the others attacked Sheffields base of operations. He killed her.
Sheffield's Blue shirt forces.
Pretty much all the sec men that Silas had put together were finally wiped out
between the attacks of hungry mutants and the final battle between Ryan's forces
when they attacked. It is possible that a handful survived and escaped.
Baron Sheffield. After the Death
of Silas this man who was his second in command took over the blue shirt forces
and was determined to set up his own barony. However he never counted on Ryan's
determination to take him and the blueshirts down despite the superior numbers,
as well as the equipment, hummers and other goods. He is finally killed by the
group with the last of his men as they try to escape Shiloh.
Baron Henderson of Casanovaville.
This man first tried to take on Nathan Cawdor but failed, losing almost all his
men in the process. He even killed his own Grandson. He arrives at
Greencove and tries to get the Baron there to believe that Front Royal was
responsible and is planning an attack. But when the baron's men return with word
that contradicts his tale Henderson tries to escape. At the same time Sheffield
attacks with the Kite and Henderson is blinded, then falls to his Death.
The Right Reverend Gore and his
band of Cannibals. This group ambushed Ryan and a family that they were
escorting through the swamps in Utah. Many of his band were killed during
the ambush but the Reverend Gore and three others escape. These three are killed
by a series of laser mines that were set up as a trap by the Shadow Worlders.
Reverend Gore managed to get captured and is killed by the Shadow Worlders when
they discover how diseased he is.
Dr. Huth, one of the Shadow World
Scientists is killed before he is able to escape through the rift into the
Deathlands when Ryan and the other send the missile that was carrying a
satellite back through the rift and it explodes.
Amanda
Ward. This woman was a real work of art. She was ran the ville of
Novaville with her brother Richard. She met up with Ryan and the group
after He and Dean rescued her from a gang rape at the hands of the Son's of the
Knife. She betrayed them by knocking the group out with riot gas and tried to
imprison them in the ville and take their vehicle. She was killed by her brother
Richard after he learned that she had killed their father years ago.
Novaville's
torturer, Eugene. This obese Eunic took great pleasure in torturing
prisoners to death, using the most sadistic means possible. He was killed by the
group when they encountered him inside the tower where their vehicle the
Leviathan had been kept. He tried to force them to give up by getting his whip
around JB's neck but it didn't work.
Sarj.
Murphy. This man was the head of security in the redoubt. He
despised General Wallace and didn't agree with his policies, nor with the fact
that rank was based solely on hereditary instead of on skill and ambition.
After the arrival of Ryan's people and their subsequent exile into the outlands,
he thought that he had the chance that he needed to take control. But before he
was able to, General Wallace sent him and his men out to take out the
'outsiders' ville. But they were beaten back by the outsiders, who had
been trained by Ryan's people. When he made it back to the redoubt, he staged
his revolt. But it didn't last long. General Wallace tracked him
down and threw a grenade into the armory that he was inside, setting off a chain
reaction, killing Murphy, and also most likely destroying the redoubt.
General
Wallace, the hereditary leader of the 'insiders'. The man considered
himself to be the final word in the redoubt, even though he was slightly insane,
due to the inbreeding. He refused to allow anyone to advance in rank based
on skill. This angered Sarj. Murphy. After Murphy returns from the
failed mission to wipe out the 'outsiders', Wallace found himself
overthrown. Instead of giving in, he used his Charisma to convince one of
the men left behind to guard him to hand over his weapon. After killing the man,
he went down to face off with Murphy. After tossing the killing grenade,
Murphy shoots him, killing him as well.
