Refugees

As their name states, these are the people interned by the Establishment in safe camps, in order to protect them from the infection and associated raider hazards.

The Establishment keeps most of them in a makeshift Refugee Camp, improvised on the location of Area 69 airport. They live under strict military control and hunger, disease and abuse don’t make living there an easy job. Maybe that’s why most of them flee the camp as soon as they can and try to survive on their own or join another faction.

Joining the Refugees
This is the easiest faction to join. There are no prerequisites, except except not being wanted or uninfected. You can either contact members of the Establishment directly, allow yourself to be apprehended and interned by one of their Snatch Teams or join the waiting line in front of the Refugee Camp. Don't worry, it is not very long.

RFID Chip
The Establishment implants a mandatory RFID chip in all refugees from the camp, allowing them to be tracked on the map. Certain NPCs offer a rather expensive chip removal procedure, a friendly medic player might assist you, or you can rise your medical skill to remove it yourself.

You can also get a job, chump
The Refugee Camp is used by the Establishment as recruitment grounds for their Peacekeepers militia army. Any able-bodied Refugee that passes the combat test and a simple quizz can join the Peacekeepers.
