Loners are a subset of Outlaws on the Dark Side of VOI 700 D, known for living outside the established order and without allegiance to any group. Unlike larger outlaw gangs like the Jane Mendoza Gang, Loners operate independently and follow a personal code, making them unpredictable and dangerous.

Loners typically reside along the Trade Route and its surrounding infrastructure, such as the Halfway Inn, where they survive through robberies and occasional contract jobs for the larger outlaw gangs. Most Loners reject the structure of human society and prefer self-sufficiency.

Loners do not believe in collaboration or organized human communities. They embrace anarchist ideals, focusing on personal freedom and independence. Unlike gangs, which rely on group dynamics, Loners prefer to “mind their own business” and avoid forming alliances unless absolutely necessary for survival.

Despite their anarchist nature, Loners live by a code of honor. They refuse to harm or rob children, believing in a minimal ethical standard, even while engaging in criminal activities. They view themselves as outcasts who value freedom above all else and reject the notion of belonging to any community.

There are an estimated 30 Loners scattered across the Dark Side. They rely on theft, particularly from Federal Courier Service merchant caravans, and small contracts for other gangs. They are highly territorial, and their law of the strongest ensures that only the most cunning and capable can survive in their world.
