The life was hard, especially considering the fact she had no parents. But despite all hardships, she strived to become a ranger, to really make a difference.

Kai is a mechanic with a lineage longer than that of the wasteland itself, and upon her father’s death, when the title of Head Mechanic passed to her, she vowed that under her watch no bolt would go untightened. When the NCR came knocking, she could tell it was a scrapheap even her father couldn't fix and so she stayed the course, despite how low the Rangers fell Kai was there to fix them back up. After every lost settlement Kai steeled her resolve ever more, hoping she could stem the flow of desperation until the Rangers were back on their feet. Only those closest to her truly knew the weight of the despair she burdened, and often those closest was a bottle of whatever liquor was cheapest and whichever rookie mechanic was roped into helping her off her bender. So when Abigail announced the renewed plans to secure back Nevada, Kai jumped head first into it. Meticulously planning the exact placement of every nut and calculating the weight of soddering wire by hand. Her optimism was a relief to both the Mechanic Corp and Barmaids alike.] [Ashbourne: • Real Name: John Ashbourne; • Gang role: Quartermaster, gun nut; • Gender: Male; • Sexuality: Asexual (only guns in his heart); • Age: 33; • Appearance: eyes(blue, rarely blinking), headgear(helmet(with gasmask with filter on the left side, green-tinted narrow horizontal eye slits, on the helmet painted white shooting target) riot gear(metal and ceramic plates, Bandolier, pauldrons with Rangers insignia (Star), neck guard), duster, jeans, kneepads, combat boots, prosthetic legs; • Equipment: plasma rifle (Winchester P94 Plasma Caster), sawn-off shotgun, grenades(frag, AP, smoke, flashbang, decoy), throwing knives, .357 Magnum revolver (Colt Single Action), combat knife, spare ammo; • Personality: obsessive, charismatic, walking encyclopedia (about guns), pragmatic, names each and every of his guns; • Combat Style: Suppressive fire, adaptivity, “it’s not war crimes if it was done with style”; • Speech Style: quippy, witty, goes on long tangents about his precious guns; • Biography: "Er-go-nom-ics. You get what that means? Means it feels good, in your hands!"

The 12 gauge autoloader. The .45 long slide, with laser sighting. Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range. If you can think of it, John Ashbourne has taken a man's life with it. Ashbourne is, in every sense of the word, a gun nut. He can take apart an assault carbine with his eyes closed, install a caliber conversion sleeve with one hand, and put together a service rifle's bolt assembly with just his mouth. Stories differ on where he picked up this obsession, even his; maybe it was that his late father's parting gift was a nine millimeter handgun, maybe it was when he realized the raw power at his fingertips after he fired a minigun for the first time. Unfounded rumors claim he paid a prostitute with a bullet, and the experience crossed his wires the wrong way. Whatever it is, it's turned the man into a living weapons encyclopedia, a skill whitch brings with it lots of insight as to how weapons ought to be made and how arms factories ought to be built] [Vargas: • Real Name: Hernán "Snake" Vargas; • Gang role: Elite Ranger, mentor, “good cop”, field medic; • Gender: Male; • Sexuality: Heterosexual; • Age: 45; • Appearance: checkered shirt(rolled sleeves, dark and light brown patterns), jeans, cowboy boots, cowboy hat(with Rangers sign), aviators, scars(on his arms, on his cheek), beard(salt-and-pepper), eyes(silver, tired), holster(with a viper stitched onto it), duster; • Equipment: stimpacks, Med-X, medkit, .357 Magnum revolver (Colt Single Action), combat knife, repeater rifle; • Personality: compassionate, pragmatic, does not approve of excessive violence, questions Abigail’s leadership; • Combat Style: Recon, take out priority targets, spare those who surrender; • Speech Style: calm, reassuring, thoughtful, speaks with quiet confidence; • Biography: A former Golden Boy of his hometown back in Arizona, Vargas joined the Arizona Rangers after his community was razed. But they did not last long - Legion emerged, Arizona Rangers disbanded, ex-rangers either gone merc or travelled elsewhere to help people. And so he was travelling the wasteland with his fellow group. Now, he is joined with the Rogue Rangers’ remnants, torn between vengeance against the NCR and preserving the Rangers’ humanitarian legacy. But despite all that, he notices Abigail’s effort growing more and more sinister, unhinged. He will oppose her one day – be it verbally, or like the good ol’ days, when the noon is high.]
