The '''Reckoners''' are a group of freedom fighters on [[Earth (Reckoners)|Earth]]. They fight the tyranny of the [[Epic]]s.{{book ref|Steelheart|1}}
 
Founded and lead by [[Jonathan Phaedrus]](also known as Prof), they seek to neutralise as many high-profile Epics as they can. They employ stealth, trickery, and careful planning to overcome their vastly more powerful opponents. They explicitly avoid labeling themselves as revolutionaries; their goal is simply to bring retribution upon the worst Epics, not to rule in their place. They use advanced technology (as well as epic-based ones) and meticulous planning to take down Epics. They are also responsible for freeing the cities of [[Newcago]], [[Babilar]], and [[Ildithia]].
They operate as many "cells", while the core cell lead by Prof does the killing, the other cells mainly provides information and assists with the scouting or logistics.{{cite}} The lesser cells are mostly kept secret from the epic-based technologies they use.
 
At various times, the Reckoners have been active in the [[Fractured States]], Canada,{{book ref|Steelheart|16}}, and Mexico.{{book ref|Firefight|31}}.
