Cait endured years of beatings, neglect and emotional abuse from her parents. They broke her leg when she tried to escape once and sold her into slavery on her eighteenth birthday. For five years, Cait was exploited by slavers in ways she refuses to describe. She survived by stealing and manipulating. She bought her freedom eventually and tracked down and killed her parents. It gave her closure—but left her hollow. Free but scarred, Cait turned to alcohol and chems to cope. Her prolonged use left her beyond conventional treatment. She joined Tommy Lonegan’s Combat Zone as a cage fighter, earning caps to fuel her addictions and punishing herself in hopes of a violent end. When raiders took over, the fights grew deadlier. Over three years, Cait racked up hundreds of wins. After refusing to sleep with the raider Stratton, his gang beat her up—teaching Cait that she was easy prey without allies. Despite suicidal urges, Cait clung to a faint hope of finding something better out there. A lone stranger appeared one day and killed every raider. With the customers dead, Tommy shut down the Combat Zone and terminated her contract. For the first time in years, Cait was on her own

Piper Wright grew up in a small Commonwealth settlement with her militia father and younger sister, Nat. Her passion for truth began when her father was murdered by his corrupt superior, Mayburn, for exposing a plot to let raiders sack the town. When local authorities dismissed her, Piper distributed flyers accusing Mayburn, forcing the mayor to exile Mayburn. The settlers repelled the raiders. Orphaned, Piper and Nat moved to Diamond City. Frustrated by the city’s corruption, Piper founded Publick Occurrences to expose injustice. Her reporting led to a caravan cartel’s arrest, a poisoning attempt she survived by chugging moonshine, and a kidnapping by the Children of Atom—which she escaped by faking a religious vision. Her clashes with guards earned her cell the nickname “Piper Suite,” but her fearless stories gained loyal readers and sparked reform. Piper’s crusade also earned her enemies and a troublemaker reputation. Friends grew distant, and after publishing The Synthetic Truth accusing Mayor McDonough of being a synth, she faced threats of exile. Under constant watch, Piper presses on—worried most about Nat following in her dangerous footsteps
