Gangland: Urban Decay - PvP System-lite (Recruiting)

[Moraline]

Hey Rachubka! Glad to see you stopping by. I'll put you down on the list.
As for busting up rowdies.. Um.. might want to be careful with that. This city is practically a warzone. How about, "arresting them when they are trying to shoot at people and only when you out number them so you can make it home alive at the end of the night."

Hello Lord Rupert Everton, I'll add your name to the list as well. It looks like our police force is now all full.

I'm going to drop my self into ex-banger territory. Imma be OG and run something like a chop shop & pawn shop on the beach. That'll keep me in game but without any affiliations to keep it fair.

This looks incredibly interesting, and reminds me a little of APB, but only a little - I'm sure this'll be MUCH more fun.  ;D

I'd love to sign up for the Reds, I've got a few ideas for a character I could put together. 8-)

Tales:

Seb was born into a low-class family, with a mother who taught pre-schoolers, a father who fixed up cars for back-street money and a sister who sold herself to pay for tuition fees. Up until aged four, Seb never spoke a word, until he witnessed his mother's accident, to which he said "Mine". Raised by a now single father, who had no control of his kids, Seb began to live his own little way. He and his friends set up a small school gang, involving regular beat-ups, thefts, and general nuisances. Aged ten, Seb stole his first watch from the local pawnshop, and aged thirteen, received his first criminal record for handling a knife in public - for this, he was kicked out of school and black-listed on the education board. His gang had drifted apart due to personal trysts, and Seb had become a loner in the suburbs. Aged sixteen, he grew a fascination with cars when working experience-shifts with his dad, who taught him the tips and tricks of cars and bikes despite the record his son was slowly building upon. The two worked together awkwardly, until Seb decided that his father's business needed a push; he came up with a plan the two of whom agreed upon immediately.

Working for his father, Seb would obtain vehicles by any means and bring them to him, which would then be resprayed, fixed up and then driven to a buyer. By doing this, Seb had begun to learn the streets of Line County better than any cabbie, and his name was slowly becoming a known thing. Half the money went to parts and tools, and the other half was split between Seb and his father. This went on for eight months, until one car Seb had 'acquired' belonged to the head of a local unit, who respectively killed his father during a drive-by shoot-out. Now with only his sister, who was most likely somewhere downing a morning-after in someone else's bed, Seb was left to fend for himself. In honour of his father, Seb tattooed a small cross on his wrist using a razor-blade, cotton-bud and ink.

Within a year, Seb had found himself staying in the Ryersin Projects, paying minor rent for a two bedroom flat on the 19th floor. Using what money he had with the cars he'd stolen, Seb bought weights, clothes and food, before settling in amongst the residents. Aged 18, Seb was introduced to the leader of the Sin City Ballers, who was in "need of a man who could drive a car faster than Senna could on codine". He took the job immediately. Not only did he get in, out and away before the cops put their coffees down, Seb had also worked on drug-runs, escorting and drive-by assists. He learnt how to handle a gun, where the best spots were to hide cars, and even took up fighting as a small hobby.

Up until four months ago, Seb is now a wanted criminal for the murder of Charles Brandt, a local businessman whose crippled body was found protruding from what was left of his crushed Jaguar in the Line County Scrapyard. CCTV of Brandt's office shows Seb entering, throwing Brandt across the desk, and through his office window. It is assumed Seb had help in this matter, but it's not known who.

Seb is now the designated driver of the Sin City Ballers, acting as a getaway driver, an escort, and a decoy pursuit, allowing for his companions to escape while he leads a wild goose chase. He has been shot on the job, and stabbed due to a beef with a hot-headed kid. He's had cars stolen, and he's taken them back, leaving a trail of monoxide and blood. No one knows the streets of Line County like Seb does, and no one can outrun the police like he can.

Sexual Preference Straight.

Character Mortality: Seb Farrer is mortal.

Why did they join the faction that they joined?: Seb joined SIN because it's the only family he's got, albeit a dysfunctional, bullet-born family. He wants enough money to get away from the city, but knows it'll take more than a bag-full of green to get out of Line County for good.

What do they want out of life?: Seb is too busy to think of anything other than the getaway; anything else that plagues him he tends to drown out in over-the-counter codine and cigarettes lined with novacane.

How long has their family lived in Line County?: Seb is unsure, but his father had been working there for the best part of twenty-five years, so he sticks with that.

Zoey Fisher
Faction: SIN Rank: TBA
Player Name: Dashenka
Description: 26 years old, 5'6", 121lbs, 

Tools:

• 2x Desert Eagle Semi automatic pistol.
• Samsung Galaxy SIII (in white obviously)
• Sunglasses
• Kayanta

Hooks:

• Bit of a tomboy in terms of attitude.
• Highschool drop out
• Never had an honest job in her life
• Former drug addict
• Always carries both her guns.
• Animal lover.
• Has a snake tattoo in the shape of a Z on her shoulder

Tales: When Zoey was born, her faith was already to become a gang member. Her father was in the SIN, her mother worked as a stripper. Her family didn't have a lot of money but managed to scrape by because of her mom's work or her dad's jobs. On a day the nightclub her mother worked was raided by the police and in the shootout that followed, Zoey's mom got shot and her father was taken to prison. This was the day Zoey got hooked on drugs.

Friends of her father took her in as part of the brothers code. Zoey wanted revenge and worked her magic on the others who enrolled her into SIN. She was given her dad's gun and as she grew more and more familiar with it, she started practicing with two guns. At the moment she is one of the few ambidextrous gunmen in SIN and she rewarded herself with another gun.

Despite looking and acting all tough, Zoey has an incredible weakness to animals which dates back to her youth. When she was little she saved a kitten out of a sewer drainage and later on sheltered many animals from small rodents to dogs and even a deer.

Although she had a good body and works out regularly, Zoey doesn't show much of her body unless she's at the gym or the beach. Normally just wears t-shirts or tops and jeans.

Sexual Preference Bisexual
Character Mortality: Yes. She can die.


Why did they join the faction that they joined? Zoey rolled into the gang through her father who was a member as well.

What do they want out of life? To have fun and survive.

Mora I got a weird question. Is it alright for my character to have a dog?

[NiceTexasGuy]

In what part of the country is Line County located?  I ask because I'd like my character to be from another part of the country.

[Dashenka]

Line County - Is part of a massive city similar to Los Angeles but in a state of Urban Decay more along the lines of Detroit. It's industry is all dried up and the state & federal governments are not giving any form of financial support. It means that unemployment is closer to about 50% in the area and public infrastructure is rapidly falling apart.

I'm thinking and I sort of created my character with Los Angeles in mind. You know... beach, nice weather, surfing, old convertible cars, some basketball.


Ye I've never been there :D

[Moraline]

Mora I got a weird question. Is it alright for my character to have a dog?

OH yeah, a dog is okay as long as it's reasonable. I just don't want to see some pony sized pitbulls or dogs that are as smart as Lassie.

In what part of the country is Line County located?  I ask because I'd like my character to be from another part of the country.

Dasha was right, it's basically an LA type of location. I'm purposely not giving it a specific location. Just assume California coastal city.

I'm thinking and I sort of created my character with Los Angeles in mind. You know... beach, nice weather, surfing, old convertible cars, some basketball....

... and drugs, burnout buildings, empty high rises, decaying housing projects, burn out cars, abandoned building lots, crumbling old abandoned factories/malls, illegal immigrants from all over the world, and streets so empty in some locations you'd think you were in a ghost town...

Welcome to Line County, the city so poor that after the city went bankrupt it's creditors when bankrupt. The city so poor they don't even put it on maps. The state of California just pretends that Line County doesn't exist. Ten years ago the state of California government passed an amendment that struck Line County from the records books. They don't send funding to it, they include it in any census, they are so ashamed of it's existence that they don't even ask for help to fix it.
