User:Kovarro/The Saviors (Comics)

Before the War
The Saviors were, throughout the start of the apocalypse, were all individual survivors. Sometime during the apocalypse, a group started to form, led by a man named Negan, and recruited survivors physically strong and violent.

Soon, Negan's crew had become one of the largest organized survivor groups in the apocalyptic world. As the group grew, they became more and more violent with their ways, and they eventually degraded into committing crimes against other living survivors of the apocalypse, which included murder, blackmail, theft, and other various transgressions. At some point, Negan declared his group the Saviors, demanding half of all the rations and supplies from the nearby communities, which consisted of the Hilltop Colony. When the Saviors did not get what they wanted, they started to give out deadly messages or severe beatings to show how much of a threat they can be to the colony. However, in return the Saviors would kill all zombies surrounding the Hilltop Colony.

As the Savior's grew, so did the location of the main base of operations, showing to be formed in a heavily fortified factory with a secure fence surrounding it. The only entrance has shown to be surrounded by a horde of chained and impaled undead, to discourage intruders from attacking, and which forces entries and exits into a small path only big enough for a vehicle or on-foot without the risk of being eaten by the undead.

The approximate number of members in the Saviors is currently unknown. It has been shown that there are over 100 living members, with more mentioned having taken position around various parts of the wasteland watching each survivor community, including several surrounding the Alexandria Safe-Zone.

The five Saviors finally encountered Rick Grimes while they were on the road back to the Alexandria Safe-Zone. Four of the Saviors sat silently as the leader demanded that Rick gave all of the group's supplies over. Rick responded by calling out to his group, causing two of his group, Andrea and Michonne to jump out of the van and kill them. Two were quickly gunned down by Andrea, the other two being decapitated by Michonne, and leaving the leader alive to send a message to Negan.
