The Followers of the Choir

The Followers of the Choir, also called The Followers, are a human-centric ideology that posits that the angels that appear across the Eastern Wastelands are heralding in a new age of advanced spiritualism and ego-death.

Overview
The Followers of the Choir are a semi-fanatical religious cult that has its beginnings on the eastern coast of the United States. Originally a pacifist cult that had its beginnings from an enigmatic man known as Roth Wolf. He posited that the recent appearance of the Choir to Asylum was that they were here to uplift humanity to fight the coming second invasion of the Boundless Union. After an encounter with a member of the Choir, Roth Wolf has been reduced to a vegetative state, and is non-responsive. However, he is capable of telepathy with a select few members of his court. He is widely regarded as a messiah in state-run celebrations..

Quickly, the organization of the cult superseded that of the incredibly weakened United States. After a brief war following the Revolution, the Followers finally installed their own government, reaching as far south as South Carolina, and as far north as Maine. Their western influence has at times stretched to the Mississippi River, although these lands are hotly contested with other organizations.

In the present, the Followers have a vastly militaristic presence over the east coast, and are constantly vying for control of floating eastern command posts with NATO. Those who do not conform to their religious ideals are usually exiled, but there have been recent reports on public demonstrations of dissidents, suggesting a more authoritarian turn for the Followers.
