Purity First is a radical anti-augmentation militant organization and an antagonistic faction in Deus Ex:Human Revolution. It is one out of many fundamentalist anti-augmentation terrorist organizations. Founded by Ezekiel Sanders, the organization seeks to end all forms of augmentation and uses violence against Sarif Industries.
History
The organization was founded by Zeke Sanders, a former US marine that served in the Persian Gulf and was once augmented. He believed that his augmentations had made him do evil deeds and got rid of them and soon organized citizens came to form Purity First. He had claimed that he Recycle Military Bill had made him do horrible things and started a crusade against all human augmentation companies. Once the group was formed, they did basic attacks such as vandalism and attacked buildings but most of them were empty. They've been responsible for multiple attacks against LIMB clinics via bombing. They are also shown to be extremely xenophobic as if Adam tries to talk to any of them they will dismiss him just for being augmented and Zeke despite Adam saving him from falling into a trap at the plant still disrespects him and attempts to kill him later in the story.
