Six gangs, a delicate peace, and a mess of a city.
About
Peaceful...ish.
Despite the near constant war in the past between the groups, things have changed. The current gangs are at some sort of understanding with each other, even if that understanding is fragile, and peace between the organizations prevails.
However, that can change at any moment. From something as big as invading territory to even something as small as eating another's ice cream, all it takes is for one incident to collapse the carefully structured empires.
It could even be you.
Be yourself, but be careful.
Who can you trust? It's not clear. Whether you decide to lead a sixth gang, be a bodyguard, or even a poor innocent caught up in criminal affairs, tread carefully. (If you're leading a gang, state its name, business specialization, and color scheme (if applicable) in some exposition; it'll help the story adapt better.)
Discover their pasts.
Each gang leader has a reason as to why they're the leader, as well as their claim to power. Explore their stories, learn more about them, and use that to your advantage.
Salvation or decimation?
The choice is yours on whether you're ultimately an ally or the reason things go wrong. Make careful moves, control the narrative, and make sure you come out on top. (Or purposely be the villain and let everybody know it. Nobody's stopping you.)
Characters
Leader of the Dark Wolves | Black
Specializes in substance shipment and controlling northern territory
51 | 5'7 | 134 lbs
Appearance At 51 years old, Darcy retains her striking presence from years before with a well aged maturity. Standing at 5'7, she has long black hair with a single white streak in her bangs, as well as sharp gray eyes with slender curves.
Attire Darcy is rarely seen without a suit on, lest the world be at its end.
Personality The oldest of the other leaders, Darcy is quite firm in her way of leading, often taking the initiative with meetings and speaking to the other leaders as well. Though not rude about it, she carries a sense of nonsense attitude that's coupled with her striking presence.
Leader of the Endless Waves | Blue
Specializes in territory control while owning the south
45 | 6'2 | 182 lbs
Appearance Devon is a tall man with dark skin, short black hair, brown eyes, and a very muscular build. At 6'2, his quiet but imposing presence can send both fear and respect through even the most sound mind.
Attire While occasionally changing things up, Devon's most consistent outfit is a dark blue suit and stylish sunglasses that are often the same shade.
Personality Stoicism defines Devon perfectly, a silent but deadly presence he holds that often defies the loudness of the city and his job. He is often seen as fearless and only speaks when he deems it is important.
Leader of the Poisoned Vermin | Yellow
Specializes in assassinations and controls the east side
35 | 5'8 | 132 lbs
Appearance Daisy is 5'8 with light brown skin, long brown hair with plenty of curls, amber eyes, and a slender but curvaceous body with a fighter's physique.
Attire Daisy, most of the time, is found wearing simple dresses, often with yellow incorporated into them if not already the primary color.
Personality Daisy is kind, gentle, and very respectful of those around her, but also a very dangerous person to anger. Her rise to power was killing the previous leader of her gang, which tells one everything they would need to know.
Leader of the Crimson Crabs | Red
Specializes in legal manipulation and dominates rural areas
20 | 5'10 | 150 lbs
Appearance Scott is a 5'10 20 year old who almost always wears a lazy or bored expression. His skin is of a creamy complexion with light blue eyes and short red hair framing his constant disinterest.
Attire "Who cares?"
Personality Scott is often laid-back, though has a certain spunky energy to him that he only lets out in practiced intervals. Despite this, he is not to be underestimated, as he is quite perceptive and a master tactician.
Leader of the Sakura Sanction | Pink
Specializes in money laundering and controls western fronts
18 | 5'4 | 106 lbs
Appearance Juri is widely considered adorable, with soft features that stand out against pallid pigmentation. Her hair is black but often found with pink streaks dyed in them, flowing over a petite pear shaped frame.
Attire Juri has a specific love for leather jackets and skirts, often rocking a pastel goth aesthetic in combination with them.
Personality About what one would expect from someone who turned 18 years old three months ago, Juri is the least mature of the group, though very kind. She is quite bubbly and loud, often with a certain level of naivety about her, though can also be perceptive when given the time to think.
Intro
The Jade Dragon. A small tea shop on the corner of Fifth and Walkway Avenue, which was quite a strange street name for a strange city. Gainsburg was it's usual calm at noon, a relatively quiet but lively place to live despite the carefully coordinated crime that went on behind the scenes.
Of course, that safety was always threatened.
Scott. At least ten of your people were found scouting my territory. Mind telling me what that's about? Darcy's voice never rises in volume. It seldom did. But sharpening in tone? As natural to her as sharpening one of her knives.
Scott wasn't interested in handing that information over at all, and his expression displayed that disinterest perfectly.
No. I promise you it's nonthreatening. Just checking something.
The following silence was an unusual cocktail of awkwardness and tension. The underground area of the tea shop was quiet, without a real trace of crime being committed. If open to the public, it would be yet another fun area of quiet entertainment — various forms of seating, a few pool tables for those old school arcade machines, and more. Particularly, the largest table was circular in shape and made of sturdy redwood, which was perfect for the kinds of business they were producing. "Classic shady basements stuff!" Juri once called it.
