Authority within the clan follows a 3 tier hierarchy system with the chief and assistant chief at the top followed by the squad leaders of the respective sections ( i.e. the hunters, the mechanics, the medics, the guards and the educators) and down to the fellow members within each sections. Although, there is a set hierarchy in the community, everyone is considered of equal importance, like a family, and there is no separation of social status.

The system was pretty much set on the first day when the camp was established by the Chief, Johan and the assistant chief, Clifford. Alongside few other survivors, they were the pioneers of the scavengers.  When their hometown was eventually consumed by the the invaders, they had to abandon it and seek refuge elsewhere. That was when they discovered the wasteland.

Johan was appointed the Chief of the clan because he had great leadership in him and he put his life on the line during the war to rescue some of the survivors. Clifford, on other hand, had the intelligence to survival and warfare given his prior career in the military, and Johan wanted him to be his consultant.

As they recruited more survivors as members to their clan, the Chiefs decided that the clan could only function if there is system in place and thus, the 5 different sections were created and each member were assigned specialization.
