The Abbey of Saint Oakley

The Abbey of Saint Oakley is known by most people as the Gun Nuns [4].

Motivations/Culture
The nuns' primary goal is to protect the many war orphans they take in and raise them to be good people. The nuns are selective in who they allow into their order and expect absolute loyalty to the cause and for their members to die for the children if necessary. Thus, many Trashlandians fear them.

They maintain their numbers by taking in orphans and those orphans then take vows to the order. The individual nuns have personalities based on the type of guns they carry. They use guns to be just as dangerous as a magic user without using magic. Only the nuns themselves are allowed to carry firearms and shooting a person not threatening them or their children results in immediate expulsion, even if it was an accident.

Each sister specializes in a specific type of firearm ranging from pistols to rocket launchers and gatling guns. Given that battles that require such heavy artillery are rare, such weaponry is rarely used with those specialists using smaller caliber weapons most of the time [2].

The first Trashlandian, Sarah, is revered as a saint by the Gun Nuns due to how she took care of abandoned children too, but their order came significantly later [1].
