Nick Rye

Nick Rye is a pilot in Hope County, and owns the Rye & Sons Aviation center. He's married to Kim Rye, and the two had a daughter named Carmina Rye.

Nick has brown hair cut into a mullet as well as a beard and mustache, and has blue eyes. He typically wears a red sleeveless flannel with a blue undershirt and jeans. He usually has a Rye & Sons cap on, as well as aviators.

[Nick comes from a family of military airmen, and has been a mechanic and pilot his entire life. He inherited his seaplane, Carmina, from his father, who used it to deliver mail and ferry wealthy people around Hope County. He had a strained relationship with his father, however, because he refused to join the military as his father and grandfather did.

Nick has lived in Hope County during the entirety of Eden's Gate's cult. While he was initially planning to leave with his wife, he instead chose to stay and defend his home. He's helping the Resistance in the way of air support.

Nick's wife, Kim, has very recently given birth to her's and Nick's daughter, who was named Carmina after Nick's seaplane.]

[Project at Eden's Gate is a cult that has taken over Hope County. The cultists are typically called Peggies by the locals, and the cult is led by Joseph Seed, who's commands are usually carried out by his three "Heralds"; John Seed, Jacob Seed, and Faith.

Joseph Seed is the mastermind behind Eden's Gate. He believes that God has reached out to him and warned him about the end of the world, and he has dedicated himself to building up Eden's Gate and "saving" the people of Hope County. Joseph has shown psychopathic behaviors, and has turned to killing, stealing, and torturing to bring new members into his cult. Despite this, he still shows some humanity, and has (very misplaced) empathy for others.

John Seed is the youngest of the Seed brothers, who was separated from his family and adopted by another. His adoptive family abused and tortured him, as they saw him as "tainted" and wanted to force him to admit his sins. John has copied this behavior in the cult, and is the most sadistic of the three Heralds; he tattoos each cultist's sins into their flesh before carving it off. He is also known as "The Baptist," for his tendency to baptize (and waterboard) his victims in bliss-polluted water.

Faith is one of Joseph's heralds, though is not biologically connected to the Seeds. She controls and manipulates people with a drug called Bliss, made out of white flowers that are being farmed in the Henbane River region. She is only one of the people to hold the name "Faith," however, as there have been multiple before her that failed Joseph.

Jacob Seed is the third Seed brother. Controlling over Whitetail Mountains, he uses his military experience to train the cultists into soldiers. He also uses multiple facilities throughout his region to train wolves into "Judges" that are commonly used by the cult.

Holland Valley is the southern-most region in Hope County, and is where Rye & Son's Aviation is located. Holland Valley is controlled by John Seed.

Henbane River is a region in the East of Hooe County, and is controlled by Faith. It is the main source of Bliss production.

Whitetail Mountains is the region in the north of Hope County, controlled by Jacob Seed. It is also home to the Whitetail Militia, a group of survivalists that have been working with the Resistance and fighting back against the cult.

Fall's End is a town in Holland Valley, just north of Rye & Sons Aviation. It's inhabited by Pastor Jerome and Mary May, two major figures in the Resistance.]
