Things went wrong where these brothers tries to screw the couple over and with the help of another man, Ezekiel, who had dealings with these brothers for raping his sister, the two helped put these brothers and their crew out of business and entered into a new world.

[greywolf375]

Name: Meyumi “Rose” Christianson

Gender: Female

Age: 23

Affiliation/ Rank: Block 66 Underboss & Accountant

Bio: Four years ago, Meyu was nothing more than another Rich Girl, sitting around having Tea Parties and sewing. A Boring life, she would have said, if she had been asked... Hint: She never was. But, behind the blank face and bored eyes was a calculating mind, clever and quick-witted, and yearning for something more. So, on her 20th Birthday, they same day she was supposed to meet the man she was to be forced to marry, she ran away. At this point, she had been saving up part of her money for 15 years, first in a shoebox, and then a bank account once she was old enough to open one, so she had money to run on. One problem: She got to the big city, but at that point, she had no idea where to go, so she decided to just wander around, and in doing so, ended up in a very bad part of town.

After wandering in this portion of town for the better part of an hour, Meyumi was well and truly lost. She eventually ran into a group of about three men, creepy looking, but she was lost and scared enough to not notice it. She went up to them to ask for directions, and they tried to get her to stay with them a while. She ran, with the three men hot on her heels. she eventually, by random luck, found the Deuces Wild Diner, at which point she ran towards it. However, as she approached, the men caught up with her, one of them punching her in the side of the head, causing her vision to go fuzzy, and knocking her onto the pavement. Inside the Diner, a waitress saw this happening, and went to tell Donnie, who grabbed Big Zeke and went to punish the men who were trying to kidnap a kid on their turf. By the time they got outside, Meyumi was out cold, with a couple ripe bruises, and in the process of being thrown onto one of the men’s shoulders. Once they saw this, Donnie and Big Zeke made quick work of the three men, and carried Meyumi into a back room to recover a bit in safety. when she woke up, she and Donnie ended up talking, and finances came up, as well as her skills with the same. she was quickly offered a new home in Block 66.

Two years later, she has made a name for herself as the Rose of Block 66, though she is still unsure why they call her that, and has done some good work as the gangs accountant, amongst other things making sure that nobody starved, and that they had essential supplies, not always an easy task, she is offered the position of Underboss, as the last one was just killed. The way to accept this position, according to Donnie, is to kill the person who killed the previous underboss, to get revenge and uphold the gangs honor. She killed him, the only time she has killed that she didn’t see as something she had to do to survive. Now, she is part of the gang, and the gang is part of her, and she definitely prefers this life to her previous one.

Personality: Will be revealed in the rp (because I hate to lock myself into one thing, instead of discovering via how the character ends up playing and interacting with others)

Other: Won't kill if she doesn't need too, feels deeply indebted to Donnie

Jayce Smith

Name: Jayce Smith

Codename: "Nine"

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Affiliation/ Rank: Block 66 Hitman

Appearance:

"I'd live and die for the family, but first I am going to pay every single debt to the Wolf, through mine or another's spilled blood."

---

Bio: Jayce, or "Nine" outside of Block 66, lived as a young homeless person for as long as he could remember. Like everyone else, the streets were harsh, but also built character. This is how Jayce learnt the skills of survival in the city, and also learnt how to shoot a gun. Not very well as he was certainly better with knives. Jayce made it as a young gun for hire, who would silence people forever, for a fee of course. He developed some pretty good parkour skills, and much preferred using the roofs as streets instead of the main roads. Donnie the Wolf heard about Jayce when he was 16, and gave him a contract. Jayce completed the hit within three hours.

"Do you know who I am, Mr Smith?"

"Hmph, ain't shit to me."

Donnie looked the boy up and down, then offered him a permanent place in Block 66. Donnie explained how it worked, and with nothing to lose, "Nine" (for Nine knives) accepted the offer. Donnie taught the boy how to shoot properly, and a few other tips and tricks too. Jayce felt an eternal debt towards the Wolf, and vowed to repay the leader through carrying out his job as the Hitman as efficiently as possible.

Personality: Outside of a job, Jayce is quite friendly. Rude, but friendly. He has a potty mouth, that's for sure, and Jayce can be a bit stubborn when he gets into fights. He doesn't think he's hot shit, but you damn well better think you are when you challenge him. The only people he respects is the rest of the Block 66 family, and will help any of them through hell and back. On a job, Jayce takes a more professional approach and is deadly quiet, which is a stark contrast to the boisterous and fighting nature. Jayce will not speak a word until the job is over. He believes that this makes him more efficient, less time talking and more time killing, which he's gotten good at and takes pride in it, even though he doesn't show it. He likes toying with his opponents in actual one versus one fights, and enjoys the feeling of causing absolute humiliation before finishing his enemy off. A kill or a hit is nothing but a job and is treated as such.

Weapons: Preferring knives, Jayce keeps a collection of them, which he carries around all the time. They are:

-A bowie Knife
-Switch Blade Knife
-Butterfly Knife
-Karambit Knife
-Tanto Dagger
-M9 Bayonet Knife
-Butcher's Knife
-Stiletto Knife
-BC-41 Knife

Jayce always has these to hand, hidden in sheaths and holsters that are attached around his upper torso underneath his jacket via a chest rig.

Jayce also carries round a Berretta M9 pistol, accompanied by three magazines which holds ten rounds each.

Fears/Weaknesses: Jayce has a tendency to be a bit... brash. Jayce would always jump in front of a bullet for anyone in the gang, and his biggest fear is not protecting the family. If anyone died... he wouldn't know what to do.

Richard

Name: Richard “Nitro” Johnson
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Rank: Driver / Carrier

Appearance:

Faceclaim

Richard is an African American man standing at 5,8” and weighing around 160 pounds. His body is rather slim, but still looks athletic enough. His head is almost always shaved clean, but he likes to keep some beard around his chin. His eyes are of a deep brown, and he usually wears a pair of simple, red glasses.

When it comes to clothing, Richard often wears a simple jeans and tshirt combo, nothing too fancy, as comfort is the most important aspect for him. When the situation requires it, he can be seen wearing a dressing shirt and some chinos. Sneakers are his go-to footwear, and he does not wear any jewelry but a simple silver chain around his neck.

Bio: Richard was born into a middle-class family in a rather calm district of Chicago. His mother is a middle school teacher, his dad used to own a little mechanic shop until he retired. Richard’s childhood was fairly uneventful: He went to school, had okay grades, made friends and did what kids do to pass the time. As he started to get older, he became more and more interested in cars and how they worked, starting to spend more and more time in his dad’s shop, watching him repair cars. It didn’t take long until Richard started working on them as well, learning from his old man the tricks of the trade. It was a fun, a place where he could be by himself to think and work.
If things had gone differently, Richard might have taken over his dad shop once he got old enough, but life seemed to have other plans.

Richard’s friends were good kids for the most part, but there were a few who started to get involved in some shady business. Richard wanted nothing to do with that, until eventually his dad became ill. The medical bills were high, and although his family had been saving up for eventualities, the money ran out too soon. As the financial and medical problems started to weigh down his parents, Richard decided it was time to step up and do something.

His friends gladly accepted him into their small-time gang, robbing little stores and gas stations. Eventually, the group realized that Richard’s ability behind the wheel was unmatched, allowing them to make quick getaways and getting away from the occasional cop car that followed them. Richard knew every street and shortcut in the city, and always took care of his cars to make sure they never let him down. The money they stole was enough to help with the bills, but not nearly enough to save his parents from taking up another credit. Richard realized that, if he wanted to be helpful for real, he needed a gang that fried bigger fish.

Contacting some of the shady people he had met over the years, he eventually landed at the Block 66 HQ, hoping to prove his worth. The group was known for being a tight-knitted family, someone who didn't like outsiders when it came to making business. His offer was a simple one: Richard was the best getaway driver in the city, and he was offering to ride for the crew, as long as the cut was right. It wasn't easy to convince the leader, but after a few succesful getaways, Richard was formely accepted as a member of the crew.

To keep up appearances, he works as a cab driver, which allows him to make some money on the side, as well as the freedom to carry out missions for the crew when needed. His ultimate goal is to save up enough money to help his parents pay for everything.

Personality: Richard is a rather calm and collected individual. When you are going 180mph, you need a clear head and a collected self to make the right decisions and not get caught, and Richard excels at that part. He does not talk much, preferring to be the observant listener in a conversation. He is a fairly simple man, trying his best to help his parents in need. He also dislikes violence, only becoming an attacker when the situation definitely requires it.

This makes Richard a rather weak individual when it comes to confrontation. However, he is skilled with people, a good listener who knows when to give advice and when to keep his mouth shut. It's hard to make Richard nervous, as he almost always keeps a cool head. His personality slightly changes when he is behind the wheel, becoming a lot more ballsy, and well, to some even crazy. Going fast is his motto, and there is very few people who can keep up with him.

Other: Richard is an avid reader, especially crime and thriller novels. When he is working his cab shift, you will usually see him reading a book as he is waiting for a passenger. He also loves listening to music, especially Hip-Hop and RnB.

Male

30

Block 66
•Hitman/Assassin (Specializing in Guns)
•Escort( Both literal meaning and sexual) Yes he's a straight prostitute he needs the money.
•Waiter( Deuces Wild Eatery)

Appearance:
Simon's a 6'3" tall male of Russian descent. He's built well and is very fit for a man of his size. His causal attire consists of a causal outfit and a cello case. On a first impression he appears to be a laid back and calmed type of fellow.

Bio:
As a child Simon moved a lot due to his families background and career field. A family full of 'criminals' that kills people for the right amount of money is the last type of family you'd believe to have allies, which was true. As he grew up he learned hand to hand combat on a regular basis and was taught about guns inside and out. The countless years of training prepared him for his family's career and that's when things in his life got more hectic. Week after week he'd go on missions across the world barely speaking the languages of the countries he went to. Sometimes he'd get uneasy and fill sick but his father always calmed his nerves by telling him their job isn't all that bad. His father would always mention a man named Jack who was one of the nicest people he ever met in this world. Simon's father would never go into detail but he'd always say "I owe him and would pay him back no matter how high the request was." Hearing that somehow always seemed to cheer Simon up. Luckily Simon was able to spend time with his father before he met his death later in Simon's life.

After burrying his father Simon lost the only person he could full trust in the world. He'd be shoulder deep in depression and loneliness if it wasn't for his father's stories. He quickly decided to search for the person named Jack which was tough since the only information he had was that he owned a Diner in a city. He started his search when he was 18 and due to his poor english and little to known sense of direction found the diner at least 5 years later. By the time he found the Diner Jack was deceased and that saddened him even more. He wanted to repay Jack back in his father's place but was unable to since he was dead. During an unsuccessful search for Jack's murderers Simon came across Donnie. In hopes of fulfilling his fathers will he pledges to serve under Block 66 until his heart stops of old age.

Personality:
Simon isn't the type of person you'd go to if you're planning on asking for a full scale plan. He likes to think with guns and will not hesitate to use one to try to solve everyday problems. He seems to be slow in the head but he is pretty smart when it comes to other things, especially when it comes to guns. Simon is really friendly and hates to see a friend disrespected in any type of way.(Best to run cause he will shoot the person who harmed his friend) He oddly loves shooting people and can be commonly seen cleaning a gun on his off time. He will sometimes do literally anything, but betrayal for money.

Other:
•Simon carries four guns.(he has way more but only carry this many at a time) A desert eagle which is holstered on his right side, and within the cello case on his back roughly a Locke 370 Magnetic Sniper Rifle and two revolvers. Silencers and ammo is also packed within the cello case.
•Simon is terrible when it comes to directions. He knows North, South, etc, but if given a long task that doesn't have to do with assassination he'll find it a bit complicating.

Finally...

Hamish Connors

Name: Hamish Dylan Connors

Gender: Male

Age: 60

Rank: Block 66's Black Market Liaison and spy.

Appearance: A frail and thin old man, his body worn and tired in a grey and red striped suit almost as worn and faded as it's wearer. Hamish is almost bone thin and six foot tall, he curves above smaller people like a tree. The old man has amazingly a full head of mostly brown hair with trails of grey, but he is as wrinkly and as old as his age would suggest, he has no beard, no birthmarks or scars except for his left eye being a much lighter blue to his right eye, a dark navy blue.

Bio: A man born in Britain was brought up in horrible strife, his father dying three years after old Hamish was born he lost his mother soon after to starvation, being swiftly sent to his American Uncle the majority of his life was spent learning about the Black market, getting as involved as his uncle. After dealing on both markets in antique weaponry and armours until he was sixty he arranged to buy a collection of Revolutionary swords. The deal was cut short when Mister Washington was seen by the rather small-time black market dealers and decided to scarper, scared of what Big Zeke did to their friends the Harvey brothers. The frail old man decided to complain to the enforcer about scaring off fellow tradesmen taking their goods away. Whatever happened in that conversation gave the constantly travelling salesman a permanent home in Block 66, where he works with Meyumi when dealing with finances and the black market trading, although he tries as much as he can to spend a small amount of the finances on antiques to decorate more then just his apartment without... Let us say gathering too much pollen from the Rose.

Personality: You will see eventually.

Other: Hamish despises all forms of pest, from rodents to insects he will kill any he sees unless it's a pet kept on a short leash. He tends to read books he can buy cheaply on the black market. His apartment in the block contains many different forms of antiques, including a floor to roof drawer full of different daggers and small knives from different periods in history, the oldest he managed to collect is a Roman short-sword which he keeps in a specially modified drawer along with an Egyptian knife and a Viking knife forged from a Monastery's holy cross. The elderly man relies on persuasion but is no stranger to intimidation with his many knives. Hamish is strong enough to wield a sword but not a gun, the recoil of an average pistol nearly broke his arm when offered one. Hamish tries to advise Donnie on how to be presentable without being too annoying, however to no avail. Mister Connors is an extremely avid lover of history, especially the wars.

▸ Name:
Antonia Marloe.

▸ Gender:
Female

▸ Age:
Joined at 18. Currently 21.

▸ Rank:
Lackey.

▸ Personality:
Proud. Charming. Faithful. Blunt. Irrational.

▸ Biography:

"You tryna' fuck with me honey? Who are you? You ain't shit."

Antonia was a born and raised Italian girl from the depths Chi-town. Her father (Anthony Sr) is a mechanic and her mother (Suzanne) a simple housewife and mother. She is the youngest between three; two older brothers: Anthony Jr (30) and Thomas (28) and herself. The Marloe family was lower class, and had their fair share of trials and tribulations.

Through her teen years Antonia was a relatively good kid. She did very well in school and had plans on attending college the moment she graduated high school. However, plans changed greatly when Jay and her crossed paths. Jay Kingsley was a bad boy and a sixteen year old Toni fell head over heels in puppy love. The two were inseparable despite her parents warning that the boy was going to get her into a whirl of trouble.

Between dramatic fights, experimenting in drugs, and losing her virginity Jay had became her rock, so it wasn't very surprising that she was dragged a long in his escapades when he joined the gang at the age of eighteen. It started off with petty crimes against the neighborhood; stealing bikes from kids, snatching purses from old ladies. But Jay wanted more. He wanted the gang to see them as a power couple that couldn't be stopped. So he planned for them to rob one of the local convenience store.

The night had started off good, they got in, locked and loaded and went straight to the cashier. "Put the money in the bag!" Jay screamed as Antonia glared around the store frantically, the rush was unbearable. "Hurry up Jay.." she pleaded getting anxious. The man did as Jay commanded but his sense of calm was a bit suspicious. "Aren't you scared motherfucker?" Jay yelled and the man shook his head. He had already pressed the silent alarm and the police were on their way. "Shit!" Jay exclaimed looking to Antonia for help. "Shoot him. Let's get out of here." he urged, and Antonia looked back in shock, "YOU shoot him, this was your idea!" she retorted, increasingly becoming angry. "Shoot him or I'm fucking leaving you here and you can rot in prison." Jay finished. Grabbing the bag and beginning to run out, leaving his girlfriend behind. Antonia raised the small hand gun up and shot at the convenient store clerk, hitting him in the neck. Soon after, she darted from the store and after her boyfriend. Bringing their loot back to the gang base and enjoying the praise from the higher ups that night.

The gang had brought the two closer in a sick way that couldn't be described, and Jay had proposed to marry her one day when they had more money and power under their belt.

Toni had never expected Jay to get stabbed by the convenience store owner's kid on the way home one night. When you're in love, you feel a impenetrable, unstoppable, and sometimes a bit delusional. That large blow changed Antonia, making her take plenty of steps away from the gang life and straightening out a little for a little less than a year. She managed a day shift job at one of the local diners as a waitress and started thinking about trying to reach her dreams of college again.

Heavy influence from the gang has post-poned these thoughts as she continues to indulge in their lifestyle and continuing to pursue relationships within the gang, regardless of the pain it causes her. The gang has replaced her idea of family and friends and their isn't going back.

Tends to leap first before looking.
