Chosen
The Chosen are a religious cult Tribe who were formed by the Guardian (aka Jaffa).
Most of the original members of the Chosen were first members of the Locos. When Zoot is accidentally killed by Lex, a few members leave the Locusts and follow Jaffa to form a new Tribe, in order to continue spreading "Zoot's Will". The Chosen believe that Zoot was a God and, therefore, they try to convert the whole world and force everyone to worship him.
When the Chosen invade the City, they take over the Mall. The Mall Rats are left to choose between joining the Chosen and becoming their slaves. This creates some tension between the members of the Mall Rats who resist and those who decide to give in. After Trudy is sentenced to death and escapes, Tai-San becomes the new Supreme Mother in the hope that she will be able to help The Guardian see reason.
Towards the middle of Series 3, the Chosen are defeated by the Mall Rats with the help of other Tribes. However, the Guardian and his former lieutenant, Luke, both escape right before the Technos invade.
The Chosen's symbol is a red/white hand. They can also be recognized by the blue robes they wear.

Famous quotes containing the word chosen:
“Well, on the official record youre my son. But on this post youre just another trooper. You heard me tell the recruits what I need from them. Twice that I will expect from you.... Youve chosen my way of life. I hope you have the guts enough to endure it. But put outa your mind any romantic ideas that its a way to glory. Its a life of suffering and of hardship and uncompromising devotion to your oath and your duty.”
—James Kevin McGuinness, and John Ford. Lt. Col. Kirby Yorke (John Wayne)
“During my administration the most unpleasant and perhaps most dramatic negotiations in which we participated were with the various leaders of Iran after the seizure of American hostages in November 1979. The Algerians were finally chosen as the only intermediaries who were considered trustworthy both by me and the Ayatollah Khomeini. After many aborted efforts, final success was achieved during my last few hours in the White House.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“A mental disease has swept the planet: banalization.... Presented with the alternative of love or a garbage disposal unit, young people of all countries have chosen the garbage disposal unit.”
—Ivan Chtcheglov (b. 1934)
