Rise to Power (a fantasy based gang rp)

[Storyboy]

info:

Spoiler

The year is 2030 and organised crime has returned more powerful than it ever was before. Four gangs opened shop in New York City, The Tesla's, Toxins, Beast, and the Shadow. Now you may wonder what kind of threat some jerks with guns may cause when we have such a well developed law enforcement agency. Well this are not you regular gang bangers. These are lead by wealthy, psychotic, individuals who want to do no less than rule by force. They have all recently acquired some very powerful and dangerous equipment.

You will be a part of one of three gangs

-The Toxins: Led by Vanessa Vines these are some of the most crazy mother fuckers to ever walk on U.S. soil. They are armed with chemical weapons able to kill or mutate large sections of the city at a time. They're goal is to watch the city burn in the chaos.

-The Tesla's: led by John Banks this group is the most organised and wealthy of the three. They run business in which customers pay to be put in what they call the dream machine, in which you get all your desires at a cost. This has caused many people to be greatly in debt to the gang due to the addiction it causes. They are equipped with rail and electric based weapons. They're goal is to run a business that has the whole world at it's fingertips.

-The Beast: nearly as crazy as the Toxins, The Beast are led by a man that is either referred to as the boss, or by the insane as big daddy. They have created, in labs hidden throughout the city, monsterous beast in which they release upon the citizens of New York. They target places based on a drawing, the only way to avoid a sector being drawn is through bribes. They are armed with regular weapons but make up for it with their beastly pets They're goal is to rule through fear.

So what do you guys think? I figured I'd make something a bit different. Now that i think of it, this reminds me of batman arkham city, or Infamous. Oh well. Anyways my idea is to have sections of NYC owned by different groups, and if you're wondering about the fourth group I thought that I'd introduce them later and change the plot a bit. So if you guys are interested please say so. If you have any ideas or questions, post away. I haven't really thought this out too much I'm kind of thinking it up as I go,so if you guys want to do anything different with it, maybe have super heroes fighting them or an elite task force go right ahead and say so. No offense will be taken. Enjoy

Character classes:
Your character can be either ranged/melee/wit/or later on hybrid (this can do it all but not greatly), or one of these more specific types. (Selecting a specific locks you down and give you high stats in what they're good at but leaves you with less room to change as a "simple" class allows)

Class Specifics

Plague Spreader:

Info: These people often wear protective suits, thick and kindof heavy, to ensure that their own chemicals can't affect them, though not entirely reliable it generally protects them at least long enough to get out of ground zero.

Traits: Resistant to plague, temporary immunity to all chemical and gas based threats. Can spread plague zones which often result in the creation of plague bearers.

Common Armament: The 'spritzer': It consists of a large tank on their back, 'semi reinforced' connected through tubes to a flamethrower like knozzle on the front that can either spray a liquid stream or a sprayed cloud of plague chemicals which when affected by cause normal humans to mutate uncontrolleable and reproduce the chemical themselves.


Plague 'Bearer':

Info: These are people 'affected' by the plague, or at least the ones that don't go completely insane and still share a loyalty to their gang. They are often incredibly obvious, having sacs of the greenish plague goo growing out of their skin as well unusually placed armored plates in their skin, as well as claws and sometimes other gruesome mutations. Only the most 'human' looking and self controlled are allowed outside of plague zones or locations that can contain them if something goes wrong. their crazy but not so stupid they'll let them endanger all of their own people.

Traits: Immune to plague effects, Sparse Armored plates, when killed or injured they produce plague clouds, small compared to the spreader's prolonged effect, but potent enough to be a danger to anyone nearby. Various inherent melee weapons and a severaly reduced pain response, increased strength and speed.

Common Armament: Mutations.


Venomist:

Info: These people often carry dart guns that launch auto needles that will inject a deadly and potent venom into a target, causing death in seconds to a normal unprotected human, though their much easier to dodge than bullets. They are often noticeable by their appearance like armored doctors, though they are much faster than the plague spreader because of lighter armor.

Traits: Fast, Carries Venom guns, Innoculated against venomous effects.

Common Armament: V2-Dart Launcher: Kindof like a nail gun but launches metal darts that operate like hypodermic needles and inject through use of impact needles.


Venomite:

Info: These are people who's taken more controlled purposeful mutations, making them immune to poisonous effects both from plague and other gas and chemical effects. They are noticeable by their darkened skin and fangs/claws, and often were dark concealing clothing allowing them to hide.

Traits: stealthy, Fast, natural weapons, Can produce and spit venom, immune to venomous and gas effects.

Common Armament: Stealth


Defiler:

Info: A more direct and violent version of controlled mutation. The defiler often wears bulky clothing and extra armor, slowing them down, but covering up as many weak spots as they can define. They often appear rotted in appearance and are larger than an average human, while they don't resemble the venomite or plague bearer precisely, They do have their own nasty effects.

Traits: Large, Durable, Secretions [kindof like a mix of venom and plague, mutating and poisoning, but it polutes water supplies and the air very nearby, small doses are resistable, but sustained proximity is not recommended for any normal human.], Strong, Regerative [semi slow regeneration, given time they can recover from anything, 'given time'], Armored plates, Thick armored Arms.

Common Armament: Melee


Desolvers:

Info: An unusual and fragile mutation, These boys often have their 'tanks' grown into their backs, as fleshy sacs of corrosive able to melt down a normal human within a minute, kill in second with a full body splash. They are discenable by a lack of clothing aside from pants, and numerous bulbous sacs of green fluids which can be expelled from the hands and mouth, as well as burst on death.

Traits: Fast, Produced and fires corrosive acid, death bomb, Immune to corrosive effects.

Common Armament: Acid Guns


Vines'-Warden:

Info: These are special members who serve under V.V. Directly, generally considered elite and unique, they are few and special in nature, normally only sent out en masse when Vines REALLY wants something handled with 100% success. however one or 2 will occasionally appear in special missions. They often wear various types of pressed suits, which leads one to wonder, why wear something like that when walking amongst filfthy bloated abominations. they are also able to take special plant based mutations, such as producing vines from that hands, using the sun for regeneration, or directing plants to obey them, often giving them unusual plant like appearances such as their hair or skin changes.

Traits: Very Fast, Regenerative, plant mutations, immune to Venom and Plague.

Common Armament: They can choose what they want to use.

-Pups-
Info: The base soldier, the peon, the newly joined. Pups come in the dozens and often share a single Beast or a Hound as a 'group unifier' of sorts.
Traits: Come in mobs, often center around Beasts and/or Hounds/Wolves, individually not very skilled.
Weapons: Sporadically armed, they often wield various melee weapons and cheap guns, often serving as little more than human cover or handlers for the Beast of the group, who's often the only thing keeping morale up.

They are often placed to direct forces of Pups or to provide a hefty amount of brute force to any attack, Hounds retain a fair degree of humanity and can pass for normal with a fair amount of clothing, but their eyes and generally inhumane limbs will still show their true nature quickly.
Traits: Extremely intelligent, fast, sneaky and flexible.
Weaponry: They make use of their great speed, power, and stamina to crush the enemy at close range. They are capable of using most other weaponry, but generally prefer sharp melee-weapons or their own teeth and claws.

Traits: Immune to damn-near everything, incredibly powerful and intelligent, incapable of using complex machinery, incapable of coherent speech.
Weaponry: In the rare cases that they can't simply force their way through bullet fire to personally maul their enemies, they most often throw large and heavy items, ranging from cars to people to other Wolves.

character types:

Spoiler

initiate: you have just joined the gang and need to work your way up and prove yourself to the higher ups. You move on to one of three classes.

Banker (Tesla only): You focus on the business side of things, making sure that the mafia grows in wealth and thus power. Good bankers have the ability to buy and customize special squads for themselves, they also can buy out sections of land to benefit the gang or use their connections to have certain task fulfilled. Bankers power is measured in money. (player/npc)

Fear Spreader (Beast and Toxins): You like to spread fear, it's your thing. You find major targets that you can hit and cause panic.

Soldier:A simpular character but still capable of great power. Soldiers are the fighting force and focus o increasing their powers in combat. They help their group by pushing the frontlines. (player/npc)

Strategist: These guys tend to stay locked up in their fortresses working on plans and giving orders to soldiers under them. They focus on marking targets and setting up ambushes on their map rather than talking or fighting themselves. (player/npc)

Tesla Specfic character classes:

The Initiate: A low level goon. Just let into the gang, not yet having been given a chance to prove himself to the hire ups. He hasn't cut his teeth yet on the Tesla's coils yet so to say. They need to do jobs for the Bankers, Playboys and the like before they are entrusted with more power. They are basically the bottom of the ladder, and need to work their way up. (Player/NPC)

The initiate leads into the second level classes,

Banker: You focus on the business side of things, making sure that the mafia grows in wealth and thus power. Good bankers have the ability to buy and customize special squads for themselves, they also can buy out sections of land to benefit the gang or use their connections to have certain task fulfilled. Bankers power is measured in money. (player/npc)

Soldier:A simpler character but still capable of great power. Soldiers are the fighting force and focus o increasing their powers in combat. They help their group by pushing the front lines. (player/npc)

Strategist: These guys tend to stay locked up in their fortresses working on plans and giving orders to soldiers under them. They focus on marking targets and setting up ambushes on their map rather than talking or fighting themselves. (player/npc)

Then comes the next level.

Soldier leads too,

The Gunner: Rail guns are your kind of thing. The heft, the sleekness of them. These deadly machines just feel so right in your hand. You can do things with a railgun that elite snipers in the army wish they could do. Picking off a man at 500 meters is child's play, putting the round through his right eye and hitting three guys behind him in the forehead is the kind of thrill you're after. (NPC/Player)

The Raver: There's something about the press of bodies, the movements of fist, foot and body that just feels right. The railgun is all well and good. But there is just something about getting up in someone's face, and bashing it in then watching them convulse as your electrically charged weapon cooks their insides. (NPC/Player)

Banker leads into,

The Money: You've got the master plan. And it all revolves around ol' Benjamin. Money baby, that's what the plan is. What can you squeeze out of all those addicted mobs that come to use your Dream Machine? Who can you get the most out of? How much can you fire upstairs to the bigboys and still keep some for yourself? You know the ebb and flow of money like it were the tide. (Player/NPC)

The Flash: Like your cousin the Money. You know that money makes the world go round. But you like to take things a little more casual. The Money will hole himself up, and just concentrate on the business and what he can rack in. You like to make a show of things. You're in the lime light. You're at the party. You like to show off. The jewels, the success, the flash and the lights. You're no Playboy....yet, but you're getting there. (Player/NPC)

The Strategist rolls into,

The Bastion: You know the street work. You've been there, you've seen it. Maybe you fought your way up and learned the lay of the land as a soldier, or tried out the cash side of things. But you know how to make people do things for you. You're clubs and Dream Machine businesses are locked up tight, no one can touch you. But you are always watching, making sure. Always have a back up plan. (Player/NPC)

The Clubber: What's the point of having all this power if you just sit on it? You've got men, women, guns, and class! Let's play with it a little. You know the tricks just like the Bastion. But you like to make a show of it. You're clubs and Dream Machines might not be the best protected, but people know about it. People want to visit, people want to see it. And you know just how to get them to do it. (player/npc)

All third level classes lead into,

The Playboy: A mix of the Strategist, Banker and Soldier. The poster boys of the Tesla Gang. These are the guys who are in the public eye, boosting the image of the Tesla's, gentle on the outside, cold-fucking-hearted on the inside. They pull strings, work the money angle, and spot the most likely candidates for debt manipulations. Their power is measure in influence over people. Don't let their image fool you though. They have seen it all. They have been there. They are just as likely to pull a railgun or a charged knife on you as they are to send a hit squad after you. It's better to be on the good side of a Playboy, that's for sure. (Player/NPC)

The Playboy, after many years of service, and experience can then be invited to become,

The Patriarch: The big guys. Only a few exist, these are the tip top of the Tesla gang. Having more money, more power and more influence over the gang then any other. These are the guys who give orders to everyone, and everyone listens. The patriarchs decide just who, what and where they are going to set up Dream Machine shops, and just what kind of clients they are gunning for. You don't piss a Patriarch off, if you do, they have whole armies at their disposal. And it'd be one hell of a dream to fight off an army on your own. (NPC perferably, but player too if they are really good)

I'll get some more ideas and a character up in the morning.

Already have an idea for a Playboy character here. And honestly an idea for the upper echelons of his little cell of the Teslas.

But for now I need sleep.

[Storyboy]

sounds good man goodnight

[InsanitiesJack]

Seeing as how you guys still seem to be building the RP, I decided to throw in my lot for the Beasts, with whom I shall rule the world.

The Beasts
-Pups-

================================================== ========

Admittedly not very detailed or well-written, but I basically just came up with a short list of some basic units for the group - primarily the units centered around direct combat. I'll rpobably have a character sheet up sometime later today.

[BigPapaBelial]

Tesla Specfic character classes:

The Initiate: A low level goon. Just let into the gang, not yet having been given a chance to prove himself to the hire ups. He hasn't cut his teeth yet on the Tesla's coils yet so to say.

[Storyboy]

Admittedly not very detailed or well-written, but I basically just came up with a short list of some basic units for the group - primarily the units centered around direct combat. I'll rpobably have a character sheet up sometime later today.

Nice thanks for the addition, that's relatively close to what I pictured only difference being when you say un-human intelligence, is that more or less than human? Because I pictured the more "beast" like you became you basically trade intelligence for brutal strength. But if that's basically what you're saying than nvm and good job once again.

[Storyboy]

Ok Belial I just finished reading and it sounds good, nice job. Adding both list to the overall list now

edit I'd like to add though I haven't put it up. Beast and Toxins won't have Banker's because they don't focus on business. Instead I'm thinking they have Fear Spreaders which will be the people who focus on finding major civilian targets and such and causing terror. For example a Fear Spreader from the toxins might mess with the air vents of a corporate building and spread a infectious gas throughout the building causing them to become infected and/or kill eachother.

edit edit:just added both list and Fear Spreader

[Storyboy]

Just realized we might be getting a little mixed between classes and types we might need to work on that later after everything is together

[BigPapaBelial]

How do you mean Story?

[Storyboy]

Just things like how Gunners use Railguns, when shouldn't classes not types decide weapons. It doesn't need to be changed now because I'm not sure how we would but I'm just trying to figure out how to have them sperate(ish) so one doesn't directly mean you're the other.
