Gangs


For those unaware, the Galactic Alliance had been turning its dominions into mini-events to try and create big stories that big together members from across the site. The latest of these is going to be on Malastare. Players will be dumped into a post-apocalyptic wasteland. The story will either start with your arrival or with your character already a hardened member of a gang trying to survive and escape the harsh wastelands.
[Insert Link Here - coming in the next 24 hours!] has full details on the story outline and the rules for gangs!


Submit a gang using the template below. Start with WORK IN PROGRESS if it is not finished or you do not have enough members. Tag me when it is ready. If I like the post it is approved.

PM a member if you want to join their gang. Only 4-8 gangs shall be able to join in the main story on Malastare.

Name: What is the name of your gang? This is important as it should convey something about your group. http://madmax.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Gangs
NPC Leader: Name and description. Every gang has an NPC leader. Their name must be suitably Mad Max inspired. Failure to be camp enough is grounds for a gang being denied! https://www.yahoo.com/movies/mad-max-character-names-118952450057.html
PC Members: from 3-5 characters. Please keep this list up to date, substitutions are permitted through the story.
Aesthetic: Describe the appearance of your gang and their vehicles.
Main weapons: Choose from Blasters, slug throwers, explosives, vehicle mounted, melee, improvised, etc. Hi-tech weapons are not permitted. Many have been able to service blasters, but energy is scarce so these are limited to typical rifles and sidearms. Please try and stick to the theme for Chrome.
Typical propulsion: tracked (slow but stable), wheeled (well balanced), repulsors (all terrain but unreliable), pods (very fast but fragile). Mitro is a special compound made using highly refined malastare fuel and even vehicles can use this for a burst of speed.
Load-out: light/medium/heavy. Light gangs typically use lots of bikes (one rider), medium gangs have a good mix but mostly cars (drive, passenger, gunner), heavy gangs use a few massive vehicles or trucks (up to ten crew). Typical ratios: Light (6/3/0), Medium (2/5), Heavy (0/2/2). 4 bikes = 2 cars = 1 heavy.
Base: what is your base? Is it a collection of tents, a mountain hideout, a pre-fab shelter, a small fort or do you all sleep in your vehicles?

Strengths: at least two. Examples: reliable vehicles, ramming, heavy armour, marksmen, terrifying cannibals

Weakness: at least two. Examples: little ammunition, slow vehicles, poor in hand to hand.

Description: add more details about your gang. It's vital to describe their aesthetic, both for members and the way they've customized their vehicles.
 
WORK IN PROGRESS
Looking for a few more members, drop me a PM if you want to join! Ideally at least a few who don't know Davon IC so this can count as development for Ultrachrome.​

Name: Eviscars
NPC Leader: Detritus Skrell. Detritus is a Gran who stands at nearly seven feet in height. He is missing his left eye stalk and covers this with a metal cap engraved with a skull. He typically wears a massive, spike laden pauldron over his left shoulder and wields a huge and heavily notched two-handed sword.
PC Members: Davon Kar [member="Elijah Rekali"] [member="Vilaz Munin"]
Aesthetic: Blades. Lots of blades. Each Eviscar carried a main weapon, typically a hacking blade of some kind. The more wicked-looking the blade, the higher ranked the member. Their vehicles are mostly repuslor skiffs that have been repurposed and decorated with armor plating and scythes. They fly bright red decorative sails from their skiffs. Every member has spiky bracers that they use to cling on to enemy vehicles when boarding.
Main weapons: Hand to hand combat. Vehicles fitted with spear guns and harpoons.
Typical propulsion: Repulsor
Load-out: Heavy. They reply on using their maneuverable heavy skiffs to get above enemy vehicles to allow their members to board in numbers.
Base: Sleep in their vehicles, they are mobile raiders

Strengths:

Mine! Eviscars are talented at boarding and stealing their rival’s vehicles.
Slice and dice. Eviscars are deadly in close combat
All terrain. Their use of repulsors allows them to ambush other gangs over difficult terrain.
Exposed. Bike riders and gangs on foot should steer clear of their skiffs. The blades can rip an exposed person to shreds.

Weakness:

Mediocre! The gang typically suffers a high casualty rate in exchange for stealing vehicles.
Range. Sawn off shotguns are the most common firearm, leaving them exposed at range.
Brace! Their repulsor vehicles have to get close to allow boarding. If the driver is careless they may get low enough to be rammed. Their skiffs do not fare well in a collision.

Description: The Eviscars are a gang of mobile raiders. Few like fighting them as they tend to close rapidly and start to board. Their dug members are said to be incredibly ferocious. First to board, using their four arms to cling on and slash with or throw knives. They usually have two scouts on swoop bikes, one small skiff with a flechette cannon for harassment and two heavy skiffs. Once an enemy gang is found the small skiff tries to attack their wheels whilst the large skiffs approach. The large skiffs tend to lock on with harpoons or clamped boarding ramps. Then the Eviscars, heedless of the danger, throw themselves at the enemy and try to cut them apart.
Davon Karr was found by the gang in open ground. They ran him down and took his possessions. A lieutenant took a liking to his beskad, with its wickedly curved blade Before the eviscar could strike Davon down, the wily old mandalorian broke his forearm and collarbone and took his weapon back. As tradition dictated that defeating a ranked member and taking his blade comes with his position, Davon was made a lieutenant.


OOC/ [member="Nia Siroc"] [member="Trix Bastin"] Anyone else?
 
Work In Progress
I designed this Gang to act as the canon fodder for the campaign, so while everyone's welcome to "Join" the fun with these Speed Freaks, feel free to kick them around and give 'em a good thrashing. Who knows? If they get the Green light, I may even carry them onwards into future Alliance events in that sector.​
(Since this character knows very few people, feel free to use this thread as a Dev Thread for obtaining Ultrachrome.)​

Name: Da Krimzon Kult
NPC Leader: Kaptain Redfinga, an overly muscular Gamorrean Savage, slabbed in vibrant emerald skin and tattered remnants of his former life. His massive tusked Jaw was covered by a bent metallic plate that was bolted into his flesh, and various scraps of a crashed Transport ship were strapped to his squat but bulky frame. He wields a massive, and crude slugthrower pistol and a hefty cleaver made of knapped metal.
PC Members: Astarii Saren, To Be Updated With Others.
Aesthetic: To Describe the Kultists of Krimzon in a single word, is Savagery personified in both body and deed. They wear the scraps of their former lives proudly atop of their muscular frames and adorn themselves in the crudely forged remnants of their enemies vehicles. Most of the Kult has toughened skin of dark forest green and beady black eyes. The color red is commonly seen on their person, either the smeared remains of their foes left to dry, or painted across their flesh in the belief of becoming faster with whatever superstitions they hold true too.
Main Weapons: Crude Slugthrowers, Explosive Tipped Spears, Harpoon Guns, Flamethrowers (Only when Fuel's in Abundance.) Improvised Melee Weapons.
Typical Propulsion: Repurposed Wheeled Vehicles, Fitted with Additional Armour Plating and Defensive Spikes. Example Images: [X] [X]
Load-Out: Medium. Da Krimzon Kult relies heavily on mowing down their foes with numerical superiority and blinding lust for speed.
Base: The ruined crash site of the Crimson Zephyr, an old Action VI Transport, several dozen miles away from the nearest city or settlement.

Strengths:
  • Brute Strength. As a byproduct of their birth, Gamorrean's have the physical advantage when compared to their Human Counterparts, and can easily overpower an enemy if brought into Close Quarters Combat.
  • Inhuman Endurance. These Porcine Humanoids have hardened leatheresque Skin backed by layers of heavily corded muscle and fat, proving to be an effective method of protection against primitive weapons found amongst the wasteland.
Weakness:
  • Intellectually Inferior. While most Gamorrean's are viewed as nothing more than simple-minded brutes, with Kaptain Redfinga being the exception, such a stereotypical mindset is in this case entirely correct as those in the Da Krimzon Kult know only how to shoot, stomp, loot and drive fast.
  • Narcotics Addiction. Before the Krashin', the Crimson Zephyr had been an Interstellar Cargo Hauler, but the contents of its hold weren't exactly kosher. Nearly three dozen massive containers of Giggledust were a part of the Cargo Manifest and had been included in every portion of the Gang's rationed supplies of food for an innumerable span of days.
  • Terrible Marksmen. To account for their inability to take out a target accurately with their crude weapons, the Gangers of Da Krimzon Kult had sought to counter their horrid marksmanship with filling the air with as many bullets as they have in their arsenal.
Description: Da Krimzon Kult came into existence from the survivors of the Crimson Zephyr after a critical engine failure had forced the vessel to crash land on Malastare. Deep in the rolling dunes of the wastelands, they were compelled to eat the fallen members of their crew and devolved into feral savages, who desired nothing more to reave, feast upon the flesh of the dead, and accelerate to ever rising speeds. They became addicted to Giggledust when their former Executive Officer had believed that it would enhance the flavor of their food and a plethora of other insidious reasons. Sufficed to say, in crimson clad they ride, ever shiny and laughing like death itself followed in their wake.

To advance in rank and station within the Kult, those wishing to rise had to adhere to the sole law of the wasteland. Only the strongest may survive. Thus, it's not uncommon for the Clanners of Krimzon to fight amongst themselves in their lust for power and speed, when not battling against another rival gang. Having kept true to this divine law, Kaptain Redfinga has proven time and time again that he's the strongest lad amongst them all, slaying all comers and salting the wastes with their blood.

Their vehicles are decrepit wrecks no better than four wheels strapped to an engine. Though they're capable of reaching insane speeds through the introduction of Mitro into their fuel mix, they're utterly useless once a critical component is damaged. Knowing that such an event was bound to occur in a firefight, the Kaptain ordered his TinkaBoys to rivet the entire ensemble together with scrapped parts from their crashed vessel, creating a truly horrifying monstrosity that holds no rights to roll along Da Krimzon Path.

How Astarii had come to count herself among their number was a story and a half. She had come to Malastare to take in the sights and relish the high-octane thrills of the local pod racing tracks. During her yearly leave, the Kult had raided the small town she was garrisoned in and had taken a liking to her ferocity. So Kaptain Redfinga had the brightest idea to bring the Hapan into his company as a trophy slave. It seemed he liked how she looked in skimpy outfits and strapped to his Boss Pole behind his Frone.

Name: Rogue-X

NPC Leader: Rogue One — Torque Catcher
The 6’2” Zabrak founder of the original Rogue squadron in the Galactic Republic. A lost soul, off the charts and data records for as long as anybody can remember. A captain of his time, who turned to Malastare’s tracks to pick up new flight techniques from the pod racers, became too heavily involved. Betting on his own confidence against Malastare’s own champions in the form of his vessel back to the Republic, he lost.

His name, Torque Catcher is the title deemed for the amount of dust he ate on the final turn of the race, where the Malastare champion overshot him and claimed first. Banished to the wastelands, Rogue One set up his own camp and became more familiar with the lay of the land.

PC Members:
  • [member="Berric Kelso"] - Rogue Four
  • Loske Matson - Rogue Five
  • [member="Choli Vyn"] - Rogue Seven
  • [member="Encouragement Gets"] - Rogue Eight
  • [member="Asmus Janes"] - Rogue Nine
  • [member="Alexandra Russo"] - Rogue Eleven
  • [member="Lucius Varad"] - Rogue Twelve
  • [member="Triam Akovin"]

Aesthetic: Same colours and materials as the Alliance’s X-Wings. They’re surprisingly lithe and smooth considering the makeshift conditions mechanic Vyn had to create them. With the assistance of her team, though her mechanical skills lightyears beyond the other’s, they were able to manufacture individual swoop bikes for one another.

Main weapons:
  • Spears
  • Torpedoes
  • Laser Cannons

Typical propulsion:
  • Two pods
  • Mainly repulsers
  • Some of the

Load-out:
  • Light
    7 bikes - each equipped with:
    2 laser cannons
  • 1 blaster cannon
  • 1 spear (mounted beneath the blaster cannon)
  • 1 torpedo launcher
  • 2 speaers on either side of the vehicle - retractable
  • Room for assortmechs on pilot’s choice



Base: Mountain Hideaway - used to having a base and touch point, the Rogue Squadron used the remaining parts of their ships to manufacture a sanctuary for themselves within the crevices of Malastare. The remaining torpedoes and heavy weaponry arms and protects this camp.

Strengths:
  • Marksmen
  • Cohesion - Having flown as a team before, the Rogues have an advantage of knowing each other’s signals and nuances. Their communication is efficient which helps as an organizational advantage.
  • Hand-to-hand combat - Trained as pilots primarily, each member of the Rogue squadron received elite, exclusive training for hand-to-hand combat in case of a crash and run-ins with a planet’s unfriendlies.
  • All-terrain: The repulsers from their X-Wings help over difficult terrain.
  • Turbo engines: Able to go really fast sometimes due to the engines pulled, expertly from [member="Choli Vyn"], from the X-wings.

Weakness:
  • Exposed swoop bikes: Good at rallying and circling, but really bare.
  • Limited ammunition: Although the ammunition is something fierce, they’re limited from what they were left with when crashed. Therefore, all firing is calculated and reserved - not random.
  • Unfamiliarity with terrain - Despite the fact they’ve been here for a couple of weeks, stranded, they are not native to the land. Torque Catcher is the only individual who knows the lay of the land somewhat.
  • Small vessels - While other gangs have trucks and cars, the Rogue squadron has converted their star fighters primarily to zoomy, lithe bikes.
  • Very orange -Ugh, flight suits.

Description:
Curiosity crashed the cat.
Born out of stories passed through the locker room, the GA’s Rogue Squadron took whispers to wings. Rumours that the original Rogue One’s broadcast had been picked up somewhere on Malastare, an outgoing signal that was extremely faint and redirected back to Sullust for investigation. The Rogue Squadron took the route to Malastare to follow the broadcast - their entrance was met with one of the planet’s typical storms which tore the X-Wings from the skies. A crash landing in the wasteland seemed devastating, but serendipitous to finding Rogue One.
