The Dukes are a loosely organized Bandit group centered in Old Villedor. Controlled by their leaders Joe and Jack, they are extortionist bandits that use ambushes and attacks to control their territory of Old Villedor.

Their leaders were part of the Bazaar, but were thrown out for pulling scams. With this loss, they turned to banditry, terrorizing the population of Old Villedor and extorting the Bazaar. With the loss of their headquarters and leaders, the Dukes ceased being a threat.

History

Jack and Joe, the two leaders of the group, used to live in the Bazaar, however were thrown out for pulling scams by the leader of the Bazaar - Carl. With this, they then mined the only water tower in Old Villedor and threatened to blow it up if they didn't receive a weekly tribute of crystals, food and medicine. They also presented a serious problem for the local Peacekeepers, killing Private Bartez in an ambush at the Houndfield Sports Hall and becoming a serious problem. With the loss of their base, Jack and Joe fell back to the water tower, where Aiden then dealt with them.
