The year is 520 A.C. and the place is unlike any other: Parties rage across the roof tops, technology continues to climb, and the city grows, as it dominates the entire world, thanks to the advanced military might of the once city-state. This city, of course, is the illustrious and vibrant New Moirai, heart of the whole world. It is in this city's streets and neighborhoods, that humanity has built itself a throne, worthy of all the splendor of mankind, and reflecting of our own greatness. Indeed, many consider New Moirai to be a testament to mankind, and in turn, those who say so could not be closer to the truth. For while the city of New Moirai does exemplify the heights of what humans can achieve, it does just as well to show to darkness that lurks within us.
Between the extravagant parties, and beneath the research labs of the worlds finest minds, lay the petty squabbles of power among those who dare reach for it. Gang wars run wild through the streets, as the rich party themselves to a slow, hedonistic death behind the finest guards that their never ending money can afford. Meanwhile, the poor eek out rough, violent, and mostly short, lives as they fight. And it can only get worse from there, as the city continues in what seems to be a inescapable downward spiral. Separated into four distinct districts, New Moirai city was once considered a paradise, but that is now clearly not the case. Never the less, the four districts are as following:
>Core District
The beating heart of the city, and home of only the most highest profile individuals, it is here that poverty is a non-factor. Indeed, it is rumored that only in the core, has no one ever gone to sleep hungry. Whether or not this rumor is true is uncertain, but it cannot be denied that the Core is the wealthiest of the five districts. It is here, amongst the Golden Spires and heaven scratching Skyscrapers, that the mortal gods of the city play, hosting unimaginable parties and, to their amusement, engaging in whatever entertainments that they wish. Although now steeped throughly in decadence and hedonist tendencies, it remains the base of the City Council, and the Core District Guards, the most powerful, and ruthless of the citie's protectors.
>Maritime District
>Archival District
>Botanical District
>Industrial District

>Maritime District
Considered the lesser of all five districts, the Maritime District is none the less as vital as all others. Placed on the scenic ocean side, the Maritime district is the intake of the city, as most foods stuffs, resources, and most importantly, new citizens come in from. Undeniably the most diverse of all the districts, the Maritime District also holds the blemish of having the highest crime rates, and the weakest of governments. This lack of government is due to the happening of the Scourge, a large freak tidal wave that crashed through the city, mostly hitting the port side Maritime district. Because of the Scourge, and the ongoing degeneration of the City, most of the lower parts of the District have been left in relative disrepair, while the upper sections of the city have been more invested into. However, after the disappearance of both the District Lord and Lady, there has been little done to help stop the rampant movement of gangs into the area. As of now, the safest areas are the places where the other districts have stepped in, so as to establish their claim to the vacant district, and to also secure the supply routes from the docks to their own districts. Currently under the regency of their daughter, the Maritime District Dock Guard are currently understaffed and under constant derision due to their ineffectiveness in apprehending crime.

>Archival District
Considered the second most diverse district, and some would say the most technologically advanced, the Archival district was, and still is, home to some of the most intellectually gifted people that New Moirai has to offer. Once known as the Banking district until most bankers left for the better guarded Core District, it was formally renamed to the Archival District, in honor of its new role as keeper of all records and data held to the city. It is in the Archival District that the first true innovations of Electricity, and than knowledge keeping, and than computing occurred. Unlike the forced, and more chaotic diversity of the Maritime District, here in the Archival District, most citizens have some sort of voice in the governing of the District itself. Indeed, it is said that within this district, that everyone has a voice. Through the use of terminals and dataslates, the District is, in theory, under complete control by the people, with every section of the District being held directly to the people within its jurisdiction. But, with the ever changing atmosphere, and distant leadership of the District Lady, suspicion is abound, as the various Cliches and Troupes turn against each other, in a dire struggle for supremacy in what was once the most welcoming of opinions. And even worse, darker rumors transpire: Extraordinary individuals, leaders of communities, and other people have slowly begun to go missing. Yet, the District Lady watches this all quietly from her mansion. The guards of the Archival District are mostly robotic in nature, and make great use of the Data networks, Camera systems, and other resources at their disposal to apprehend criminals.

>Botanical District
Much less a district, and more of a unbridled dumping grown, the Botanical district has little to offer to anyone but to the richest and the most determined individual. Located next to the Maritime District, the Botanical District was once considered a rival to the Core District, due to its vast gardens, parks, and Sky rise estates, along with its many water ways and submerged buildings. It was also the home to many of the city's leading hospitals, biological research labs, and some of the most educated medical employees one could find in the whole city. Powered by great selection of drugs and chemicals, the scientists of the Botanical districts once applied their arts to not only saving lives, but improving, and modifying them as well. But, after the Scourge, much of the District was sunken underwater, and with too small and a too uncaring population, little has been done to fix the destruction as well. To further worsen the prospects of the District, those who once dedicated themselves to serving the people, find themselves slowly slipping into madness, as the potent biological concoctions begin to reveal unforeseen side affects, which when coupled with the stresses and demands from their clientele, have led to some questionable behavior among the Scientists of the district.

>Industrial District
It is often said that the rarest sight to see in all of new Moirai City, is that of a clear sky over the Industrial District. As so aptly named, the Industrial District is of course, the Industrial heart of New Moirai city. It is here among humming generators and slamming pistons, that the resources of the world are sucked in, and the wonders of the City are churned out. Having one of the highest populations, and along with having one of the greatest wealth gaps between the poor and the rich, the Industrial district is a crowded, dirty place, where smoke stacks spew their dark breath across the sky. Held in line by the District Overwatch, the Lady of the District is a dark, sullen woman, who holds a great deal of faith in the Heavens above. Indeed, it was her commands that consolidated the Clergy and the District Guard into one organization, so as to better guard both the living, and the spirits of those who are not as fortunate. Like all things in the Industrial district, the Overwatch was created with efficiency in mind, as its boring, and rarely decorated, yet highly effective machinery proves to be a counter to the regular petty thug. Yet, there is rumors that trouble brews in the streets: Rumors of things not of this world grow in the darker corners, and that the Gangs of the District have become far more effective and organized. But, with help from the Core and Archival District, the machinery of the Industrial district has grown more and more advanced, as new guard technologies have come into place.

But what about you? Who are you? Clearly, you're not some major player…yet, that is. But this is your story, is it not? But what do you plan to do? How are you going to survive? Will you climb to the top, brushing aside the world with brute strength? Or will you fight for a better one? In all honesty, the choice is up to you. But as New Moirai crumbles and rots, it will take all your wits and talents to survive, and forge yourself as dominant.

Name: Dr. Arkonas Robinson
Faction Name: Robinson's Garden
Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

Name: Ellis Kane
Fluff: The Kane family is as old as the city itself, running the Kane Family Fishery employing a large amount of workers and owning various other assets in the city. The Kane family has always been seen as one of the “good ones” always supplying a good wage and decent working conditions. However come the Scourge that destroyed much of the Maritime district the Kane family has been brought low. Ellis Kane is a hard man, whilst born rich he cares more for an honest days labour and always used what he could to help his fellow man. All around him he has seen the district decay and suffer under the gangs. Ellis stands at almost seven feet tall a monster of a man with a pragmatic attitude and honorable personality to match it up. He has vowed to return the Maritime district to prosperity or die trying.
Faction Name: Dock Workers Union
Faction Fluff: Formed of the hard working men of all the industries of the Maritime district the Dock Workers Union is a collection of “decent” men who want nothing but a return to normalcy and safety. Whilst mostly involved in keeping the streets safe and helping industry many members are know to have skills in much less reputable dockside work, as even smugglers and thieves preferred more stable times.

Name:Professor. Archimedes Carter
Faction Name: The Sons of Archimedes
Fluff: Professor. Archimedes Carter was once a respected teacher at a Archival District's University and a well known inventor until the scourge hit his recent investment amongst the coast and a half mechanical squid is found . Now resent allegations of fraud, unlawful experimentations, blackmail, and conspiracy are now brought to light, the name Archimedes Carter is now mud amongst the educational and innovative elite of the Archival District . As he escaped he now plots revenge against them. Now he's a wanted man who is known for kidnapping locals and subjecting them to experimentation while trying to undermine the elite.
Faction Fluff: The Sons of Archimedes are well known for being mostly comprised of mechanical men and sometimes half mechanical and half organic men that follow his every command.

>Name: James J. Johnson
>Fluff:
While the Scourge brings destruction whenever it crashes into the shore, in a blue moon, it also bring a spark that could lead to change.
James Johnson was a civilian of one the more technologically backwards countries in the world, who was at sea going to a new home when the participator tidal wave struck. That is what he remembered after waking up in the Maritime District, drenched in seawater and only a few shillings to his name.
Wandering through the slums of the wave-shattered district, he was disgusted at the sight of the impoverished and poor, how the races of the world are treated as nothing more than stepping stones for the 'elites'. With the situation getting worse, and no sign of a solution from above, James knew something need to be done.
Something, like a Revolution.
Using his remarkable charisma gained from his former forgotten occupation, he managed to form a stepping stone to a greater goal. In time, he hopes that the fading fire of New Moirai will be brought back to the glowing glory that he heard of in the past.
>Faction Name: The New Beacon (Also known as the Revolution)
>Faction Fluff:
Composed mainly of the poorer classes from the docks, the New Beacon's main goal is to overthrow the oppressing government, in order to see both theirs and their children's lives be improved through a brand new one.

Name: Baroness of Sam
Faction Name: Childs of Kroen
Fluff: Born a slave, raised a slave, die a queen. This is how the Baroness wishes her fable to end. Raised as a servant of a hedonistic aristocrat, the Baroness lived a life watching the depravities of the rich. Years of abuse built a hatred in the child and it was this hatred that brought forth the lao spirits to her. The spirit god known as Kroen watched her torment and smiled knowing the power. He offered her power, power to rise herself to be the betters of her once masters. All it required was a handshake and a name. She sold him her true name and made the deal. Now the queen of the sewers sets her sights on the city. How much of her story is true and how much are lies none know. Perhaps her lao is real or perhaps it is her sheer force of will that controls her followers.
Faction Fluff: When the baroness arrived in the streets, the deprived children of the city were drawn to her aura. Their new queen didn't walk like royalty but all were drawn to her. She came with herb and she came with smoke. Those who follow her say that when she is near they can hear music in their head. Music that drives them and music that pushes them forward. The Childs of Kroen skulk through the sewers following their mistresses will.

Name: Ezekiel Samson (Peace)
Faction Name: The Troupe
Fluff: Ezekiel was born in the seaport slums of New Moirai. he quickly became an orphaned street urchin, his mother dying at birth. his father dying a few years later in a bar fight. A lad of quick fingers and wits he made his living my lightening purses and wallets of their contents for eating money. The young urchin lived like this until he drew the eye of the leader of an acting troupe in a daring little act so one of his freinds could cut a purse.
The leader adopted him, brought him up. He learned how to mix pigments, sew costumes, to act and draw the eye, then move the heart. He became a good actor, a dashing young man to play the heroes of the stories they audiences loved. Then the Scourge came.
It accelerated New Moirai's decline, soon gang tensions rose rapidly, gangs fighting and the guard being rendered ineffective. Acting troupes started disappearing, their resources drawing thieves and cut throats. One such attack on his home cost his adoptive father his life, and scarred Ezekiel's face horribly. With his home in disarray Ezekiel rose to leadership, turning it's pursuits to a dual purpose. Props blades were replaced with real ones, practice and fake fights were turned to active sparring, pigment making expanded into making poultices and poisons, costume making became armoring as well, and finally acting and speaking became tactics and diversion. Everything his home did now had dual purpose to make it survive. Likewise he in turn practiced his blade work, learning, improving refining, until his home was under no more active threat. His style is slow, pausing, lacking the frenetic energy or graceful movement of most. It's peaceful, and his style of fighting is reflected in his mask. Thus he implemented the Masques, fighters that would protect the Troupe and reflect what they were about.
Faction Fluff: The troupe was once one of many acting troupes through out the city, performing plays and dramas for the enjoyment of everybody. Now they are the only one left that is active, the others either were predated upon, fell apart, or settled down in acting houses. The troupe as it is now known, persevered, turning all it's activities to a dual purpose.
The Troupe is known through out most of the city, if by reputation only. Few bar their way, and even fewer attempt to steal or attack them, for the costs are too high.
Stories and rumors tells of Masked men and women, fighting and winning, acting insane. Masques of Comedy laughing and attacking quickly whether with darts or blades, laughing at their opponents misfortune, darting in and out with glee. Masques of tragedy, slow, heavy, armored, weeping at their opponents inevitable demise, even as their heavy weapons crush and rend them. Masques of Rage attacking brutally, quickly, without mercy or forethought, berserkers ripping and tearing their foes while snarling in anger. The Masques' reputation alone giving the troupe security well before anyone sees the masked warriors themselves.
The Troupe thriving on it's security and might has grown, taking in the few disparate survivors of other acting cohorts, has grown to a respectable size. It now acts as an eternal caravan throughout the districts, performing for any who care to see, though its audience has waned, much like the city has.

Name: The Crimson Skeleton
Faction Name: Cyclops
Fluff: no one knows where he came from or when he came, those who have seen describe his red exterior and eternal grin. the red skeleton claims to be from man, and fights for the cause of common men against injustice and to establish to the rule of workers and soldiers. “three men stand in a room," he says "a clergyman, and a tycoon with his money. between them stands a common man with a gun, each tells him to kill the other. who does he kill? some would say, 'it depends on the common man.' but why? he has no title, no wealth, nor favor of the gods. 'he has a gun' it is said. but if the man with a gun decides the outcome, why do we pretend these other men hold power?” the Crimson Skeleton is known to carry by his side a glowing object, and a tome of runes, which he claims gives him knowledge and power over 'things beyond the realm of man'. it is rumored he consorts and manipulates creatures and powers beyond the darkness to do his bidding.
Faction Fluff: Cyclops names itself after Balore, the ancient giant who cast death on those who gazed on his eye in anger. the cyclops were a race of workers and smiths, toiled to create crafts for the gods. now the giants rise up against their former masters. Cyclops is composed primarily of industrial laborers, engineers, disgruntled guards, and disillusioned mercenaries who seek to establish a nation not dominated by wealthy men and bureaucracy, and ruled by a true government of the people.
its members are distinguishable by their industrial gas masks, which protect them from the toxic fumes of the deepest layers of the factories and act as a symbol of their status in the working class or as soldiers of war. furthermore, all members are gifted by the Skeleton himself the mysterious 'eye of Balore', which gives them the power to project a bloody red glow in their eyes, which is rumored to give them better vision in the dark and is how each marks another. by what science or power the Skeleton does this is known only to him and his tome.
working from the industrial bowels of the city, Cyclops is able to arm itself through the labor of its members, sneaking and stealing item directly off the assembly line in bits and parts and then reassembling them in secret by mechanically educated members. this gives them access to technology and the resources of the city, and the ability to produce their own weapons and weapons designs. Cyclops has the reputation of being able to bear powerful arms and weapons against their enemies, outgunning the competition at every turn.

Name: Riccardo "Ricky" Marino
Faction Name: The Marino Family, "Ricky's boys"
Fluff: Riccardo Marino is the son of the late Don Lorenzo Marino. He runs the families Casino in the Core, a place where the wealthy can spend their money on just about anything, especially things beyond the reach of the law. Prostitutes, illicit drugs, assassinations, even protection and intimidation. Beggars, Bankers, and Barons came to make, and return, favors to Marino family.
Riccardo had two reputations within and outside the Marino's: a smooth talker, and a sharp shooter. Some said his tongue and his fingers were magic, if there was a dame he wanted he had her around his finger with the first word he spoke. But the second reputation was far more useful. As a child, he never lost a game of cards, darts, and with a flick of his wrist his dice always rolled exactly what he wanted. As a man, if he shot at something, he hit it. Every time. It was rumored his father had gifted him with cybernetic eyes, electronic hands, synthetic lungs, an internal calculator and other body augmentations that gave him every edge to become the greatest sharpshooter. Women who knew him did say his eyes looked unnaturally beautiful. Whenever he took a shot, his bullets always found their mark. As a result, he earned the nickname "Ricky the Reaper"
Faction Fluff: Chaos reigns in the death of the dons.
In one fell swoop, the heads of the snakes have been severed. It was a meeting of all the major families, an emergency gathering was called for. The don's of the the Padovesi, the Romani, the Giordano's and many others including, of course, the Marino's would be present.
The greatest crime against the familial code is to attack another family while under sacred neutrality of a meeting, entire families had been wiped out to a man before for breaking this code. But previous examples had been between meetings between small meetings of two family's. Never before had anyone dared to attack during a grand family reunion, and nobody expected to find all the don's at the meeting full of bullets and no one to speak for it.
At first it was thought it was a successful grand plot by one of the don's to take out all the families at once and rule supreme. Everyone held their breath, expecting a survivor to make their claim to the criminal underworld. But when no one spoke up, it became evident to all the families: the don's were dead. Every single patriach had been killed.
What followed was nothing short of anarchy and open warfare among the families for control and to establish new leaders. Cousins fought cousins, brother against brother, and the streets ran red with blood as each view for supremacy within their family and for their family.
In the middle of this Riccardo Marino stands in his casino, the only son of his father Don Lorezno Marino. With what loyal men of his family left, they held out against the first onslaught of the war and managed to stay alive as the underworld riled as if in a death throw.
The Marino family must now rebuild itself from the ashes and rise up in a new and more violent age, and era where the new dominant families will be born and decided. Ricky Marino stands at his Casino, the headquarters in this new gang war.

Name: Armand Caligula
Faction Name: Hammerheads
Fluff: As with the rest of his gang Armand is an addict to personal physiological improvement through surgery and genetic tampering but unlike them is driven primarily by a madness tempered by greed and a surprising bit of cleverness and may or may not be more shark than man. Armand rules the Hammerheads through predatorial dominance and a willing to maim any rivals as a constant reminder of why he's in charge.
Armand seeks to rule the Botanical district and force the madmen who call it home under his thumb by controlling the waterways between the labs through force and the citizens themselves through fear and uncertainty.
Faction Fluff: Formerly a group of thugs and freaks these halfmen have decided to take advantage of the cities downfall to expand into racketeering and loans with some very fatal punishments for being late.
Individually the members of the Hammerheads are biological manipulation addicts and spend most of their time under the knife or showing off their newest additions most of which are predatory in nature and all of them have some way of breathing under water even if it means poor health in the surface. Their tools of the trade also show their affiliation with the trade as most of them carry pressure based weapons to avoid the perils of wet gunpowder and shorted electronics as well as blunt or toothed weapons to disable equipment (easy way to prevent escape by boat is to crush the propellor beforehand or just sink it by tearing through the hull)
Currently the Hammerheads have set up shop in the Botanical district working to make a business of funding the efforts of the madder scientists through a loaning service and scavenging some sunken labs for salvage that can be traded for capital.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

Name: Commander Viktor Shatterhand
Faction Name: The Iron Watch
Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

Name: Eberus Clark
Faction Name: The Librarian Knights
Fluff: Eberus is a old soul in a young body, always having been regarded as wise beyond his years by his peers. It was this tribute, wisdom, that found him at the head of the order of Libarian Knights, guardians of the most important knowledge that New Moiroi possesses. He was born in the Industrial district to parents who spent their days and nights working the vast manufactorums of the district, both dying before he was 12 of rot lung. The boy was left an orphan, and joined the many urchin gangs that roamed that decripted land, stealing to survive, and trading secrets that little ears hear and little eyes see for whatever they can get. It was in these years that Eberus developed a fascination with knowledge, as it was the house of a wealthy factory owner they were capering when young Eberus found himself in the man's library. The shelves were dusty to say the least, but by the gods was it vast. Eberus soon found himself lost in it, and spent his time reading while his friends robbed the sleeping lard of all his valuables. They pawned their goods and ate, while Eberus went hungry, yet it was not only the hunger of appetite that wetted his lips now, but the burning desire of knowledge. He soon turned to learning all he could from all the homes he and his fellow urchins robbed, and soon came to lead the wily gangs through the sheer bredth of his knowledge alone. It was at the ripe age of 19 that he was cast out from the gangs, as the children accepted only their own kind. Without purpose, he wondered the bleak Industrial district, joining all the other husks in their meaningless march through the drudgery. He was saved by the discussion of a passing pair of guards, who happened to mention a bright, clean district where men could be free and all the knowledge of the city lie; The Archival District. Eberus left the bleak skies of the industrial district behind, and soon found his way to the Archival district. There he became a scribe, writing and keeping sure that all the knowledge of the City remained safe and accurate. When he was 22 the Data center he worked at was attacked by a group of luddites, angered at the hedonism of the city and desiring to turn back the clock to simpler, purer times. It was here that Eberus first caught site of the Librarian Knights, different from the normal guards of the district in that they cared not for petty criminals, it was the safeguarding of knowledge that they placed above all else. Enraptured by these men and women in bright suits using magnificent technology that Eberus had only read about, he eagerly inquired to join them. He soon rose through the ranks, as the city crumbling and disorder increasing meant an increasingly large amount of openings in the Knights. He now finds himself at their head, at the ripe age of 28.
Faction Fluff: Guardians of the Knowledge of the City, equipped with the best tech that the city guard (barring the core) can possess. A small unit, but they make up for it with training and Technology. Serves as a buffer for those who would wish to hoard technology and those who would seek to use it to harm the city.

Basic-10+ To applicable rolls[1/8]
Advanced- 20+ To applicable rolls[1/16]
Master- 25+ to applicable rolls[1/24]
Supreme- 35+ to applicable rolls[1/32]

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

1. The Society needs some time to establish itself before moving into the core proper - though my friends and I can certainly afford it, without the proper rapport, it would be a foolish escapade. For now, society must root its tendrils into the Archival district and establish a firm grasp over its more fashionable side - scoping out the most eloquent and attractive areas of high society's gathering and working to seed tendrils within them, speaking with their regulars and owners in party whispers of a hot and selective society. Our ranks must swell - and, through careful selection, our influence over the mindset of the district.
[Scope out social workings + recruit]
+30 (Advanced Spying, Basic Sociology)
2. Though populated by minor nobles, the Royal Society Club House is, of course, but a front for the actual society - simply a more directly-controlled watering hole, a way to filter the flow of new blood and survey the social movements of the city. No members list truly exists, and the flittering of actual Society members is rare even within. As with any proper clubhouse, it does need its servants and guards - for now, as a small thing, a handful recruited through society friends will suffice. They must be, of course, of sufficient pedigree, proficient in three disciplines at once: Firstly, the ability to serve and wait upon demanding and decadent nobles without a word of complaint, secondly, the ability to listen and understand every word spoken by them, and thirdly, the ability to kill. Perhaps only blatantly for now; more quiet guarding may be required later. Permanent eyes and ears in the form of servants will be absolutely needed for now, at minimum.

Faction Name: Robinson's Garden
Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

As he escaped he now plots revenge against them. Now he's a wanted man who is known for kidnapping locals and subjecting them to experimentation while trying to undermine the elite.

Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

In the dimly lit pub of the Sailor's Song, Johnson chatted with the three dockmen present. It was clear that the district is in dire straits. The Scourge made shipments rare, due to the risk it poses to the ships that arrives. While there is noting that can be done about such occurrences, the next best thing to do is to support the civilians who suffer from the Scourge. And the only way to support that, is to rally forth support in the New Beacon's cause.
1: Heading out, the Dockmen began to spread word of the New Beacon. Winning the will of more people is key in securing the survival of the movement.

Raised as a servant of a hedonistic aristocrat, the Baroness lived a life watching the depravities of the rich. Years of abuse built a hatred in the child and it was this hatred that brought forth the lao spirits to her. The spirit god known as Kroen watched her torment and smiled knowing the power. He offered her power, power to rise herself to be the betters of her once masters. All it required was a handshake and a name. She sold him her true name and made the deal. Now the queen of the sewers sets her sights on the city. How much of her story is true and how much are lies none know. Perhaps her lao is real or perhaps it is her sheer force of will that controls her followers.

Name: Ellis Kane
Fluff: The Kane family is as old as the city itself, running the Kane Family Fishery employing a large amount of workers and owning various other assets in the city. The Kane family has always been seen as one of the “good ones” always supplying a good wage and decent working conditions. However come the Scourge that destroyed much of the Maritime district the Kane family has been brought low. Ellis Kane is a hard man, whilst born rich he cares more for an honest days labour and always used what he could to help his fellow man. All around him he has seen the district decay and suffer under the gangs. Ellis stands at almost seven feet tall a monster of a man with a pragmatic attitude and honorable personality to match it up. He has vowed to return the Maritime district to prosperity or die trying.
Faction Name: Dock Workers Union
Faction Fluff: Formed of the hard working men of all the industries of the Maritime district the Dock Workers Union is a collection of “decent” men who want nothing but a return to normalcy and safety. Whilst mostly involved in keeping the streets safe and helping industry many members are know to have skills in much less reputable dockside work, as even smugglers and thieves preferred more stable times.

1. Among the glowing skyline and waterway villa's of the Archival district, your agents move, as they attend their parties and gatherings without gathering suspicion. After all, you are simply acting as your function in society provides. However, aside from the general festivities, most people seem more pre-occupied with the database and the city-wide gossip, rather than the more refined aspects of society. As of yet, few of them are impressive enough to warrant your attention as valuable members of Society.
2. Scanning through the enormous help wanted adds posted across the Terminal System of the District is a small feat to the lower classes, but to those of higher standing, it is but a few inputs of code. Springing to life, several ideal personnel appear on your screen. But, with so much variety, why should one not strive for perfection? Picking out only the most ideal of the several shown, you soon sign your signature, and your new Servant is informed of his new job.
>ADD TO: Henchmen
1 Servant[1.5]
>>34935
In the Botanical district, there is no lack of destitute peoples, looking for a in, or in other cases, a out. Just the sheer promise of a safe bed, and a free meal is more than enough to gather a small group of people to your door. Even more come flocking, after hearing promise of free medical care, protection, and more. How much of that is true, why, that is up to the good doctor Robinson. But, regardless, you now have a small throng of willing test subjects.
>ADD TO: Resources
6 Willing, full bodied men
3 Willing, full bodied women

1. In the tunnels of Botanical, you look up-through the clear glass skylights of your mansion, simmering in anger at the Academy hanging above you, distorted as much by the water so as by your hate. Soon, they would see the errors of their ways. But, to strike too soon, and to hastily, would be your downfall.
2. Venting your frustration towards a more productive outlet, you return to your sons, and begin working on advancing their inner machinery.
>ADD:

1.With explicit orders, you move out, gathering some laborers and resources to help fortify your keep. Although a few complain, some of the more optimistic workers take note of your pledge to protect the District, along with getting out of the factories for the day.

1. As your men go out into the streets, they carry out with them the seeds of hope, and as they go, they plant those seeds into the hearts of men and women as they go. Speaking at news stands to those they see fit, and whispering the word into the ears of those deemed trust worthy, you find your men return, and following them, a band of those listening to what you speak.
>ADD: Henchmen
8 Commonfolk[1]
2 Dock Workers[1.5]
2. Heading upstairs, you see the Pub Owner casually sitting, reading the "Maritime Tribune". Welcoming you in, the two of you sit down and begin to discuss your plans. After a short meeting, he gives you control of the lower basement levels, and the Barroom.
>>34944
1. Working through the underground factories and boroughs of the surrounding area, you gain some information based around the nearby factories via sheer intimidation. However, your striking appearance and fearful demeanor unsettles most people. While you get a fair share of promises from the Union to not report you, or stick their noses into your business, you can't help but feel that they did so out of fear, rather than any true Altruistic meaning.

2. Despite being the ideal place for all sorts of crimes, the Archival district is rather well known for its reducing of illegal weapons on the street. It would seem that you would have to look a little farther to find the right contacts.

1. Your children go about the city, tagging area's with the symbol of the Kroen. However, while your children accomplished the task with speed, the people seem a little confused as to what it means. Most people either ignore it, or in the case of the guard and rival gangs, paint over it, in fear of it being a regular gang sign.
2. Although the city of New Moirai is plentiful in children, weapons are another matter. Picking through the remnants of the city, your children return empty handed.

1. Approaching the richer parts of the Maritime district, you find the perfect spot to perform: A small amphitheater, built during the better days of the District. Spending a few hours getting word out, your Troupe is dying to perform and show off their skills. And when the time comes, you act with all your hearts. Performing the classic play "Free Billy", you move the mobsters and aristocrats of the district with sweeping movements and unbelievable acting. Tugging at their heart strings, there is naught a dry eye in the audience by the end. Bowing as the curtain falls, you are quickly crowded by a mob of people: Some stuffing money into your hands, some begging to join your troupe, and others simply applauding your performance. By the end of it, your band has almost tripped in size and money. However, one of your new recruits stands out. A stunning beauty, she looks as elegant as a rose, with a braid of golden hair.

1. Fishing around in the districts around your Saloon, you find a variety of old machines. Gathering as much as you can, and carrying them back to your home, you spend a few hours fiddling around with the bits and bobs, until you begin to figure out how to work a sort of radar like machine.
>ADD: Skills

2. After messing around with the Radar machine, you accidentally ping a strange, and very, VERY loud sound through the Saloon, and into the nearby waterways and buildings. However, as time passes, you find notice something coming up on the radar. Soon, you find yourselves jaws to jaws with some very familiar looking faces: Although, they look different in a way, and they look a little rough around the edges, they're seeking a new school to swim with, and end up offering to join your gang. They also have some tasty tidbits about some possible ventures for your crew..

After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

Raised as a servant of a hedonistic aristocrat, the Baroness lived a life watching the depravities of the rich. Years of abuse built a hatred in the child and it was this hatred that brought forth the lao spirits to her. The spirit god known as Kroen watched her torment and smiled knowing the power. He offered her power, power to rise herself to be the betters of her once masters. All it required was a handshake and a name. She sold him her true name and made the deal. Now the queen of the sewers sets her sights on the city. How much of her story is true and how much are lies none know. Perhaps her lao is real or perhaps it is her sheer force of will that controls her followers.

She came with herb and she came with smoke. Those who follow her say that when she is near they can hear music in their head. Music that drives them and music that pushes them forward.

The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition.

1. Heading back down to the casino, your boys smooze around the darker bits of the bar. Eventually, after a few drinks and some bribes in the right direction, your Made men come back with a small crate, and their pockets a bit light. Cracking open the inconspicious box, you see 7 shiny hand guns looking back at you.

2. While your boys are out on the streets, you head down to the casino yourself, welcoming your esteemed guests as they come to have a good time. Presenting yourself among the seedier, you throw out a few well placed words and some suggestions. Not long after, you are slipped a few notes, with return addresses, and some Terminal contacts, all of which, are mostly anonymous. Still, you have contacts. Contacts who need your special brand of help.

1. Exhausted after the wonderful performance, most of the troupe is exhausted, or too excited to focus properly on training. In the end, you simply sigh as your troupe pitches up for the night, to ready themselves for tomorrow. The only one who pays any heeding to your words is Rose, but with no-one available to help, little is learned.
2. Tomorrow morning, you head out bright and early, digging through the market stalls and booths for early morning deals. Eventually, you come across some torn strips of clothing, being sold for a fraction of the cost due to their shredding. Of course, the colors and stitching are perfectly suited for your troupe.

1. Grumbling in the gloom of the night, you set about work on your upgrades to your sons. Digging through your workdesk and flinging aside less worthy inventions and trinkets, you splay the schematics out, peering over them for any sort of flaws you could reasonably fix. Yet, despite your efforts, you simply can't find a flaw. You work is just /too/ perfect.
2. Meanwhile, you look for the less fortunate. However, it seems that perhaps you may share in their luck: It seems that the homeless slums have been moving towards one of the lifts downwards, after rumors of free board and food being offered below circulated through your neighborhood.

1. Smiling as you get to work, you quickly set about your work, strapping the test subject and putting them under with the necessary gasses. Once they are gone, you quickly begin to crawl across and examine their body and precious tissues, pouring over the strands of muscle in order to unlock the inner-workings of the human body. Slowly, incision after incision, your mind begins to tear apart the veil of ignorance.

2. Indeed, with a genius like yours at the reign, progress hurries along at a breakneck pace. Sure, the test subject has been asleep for quite some time, and soon, the blood loss suffered may cause damage. But, now, your study has ended, and the experimentation has begun. Injecting and applying the regents you have found to increase muscle growth in homo-sapiens(And other creatures, for that matter), you watch and record with curiosity. Well, your assistants do that. Your far more busy rubbing your hands together, and grinning.

1. Attracting the attention of some fellow fishermen due to your work-site, you get a chance to sit down and have a nice chat about them that involves the state of the city. Although they say that they'll think about joining up, you find to your surprise that those "Fishermen" weren't fishermen at all. Instead, wearing Whaler suits, they approach you via boat, loaded with supplies, explaining their situation. In such difficult times, even smugglers need a place to lay low, and in exchange for a safe place to dock, they're willing to work under you.

2. After the Scourge, and the subsequent abandonment of much of the city, many of the docks had fallen under the sway of petty gangers and mobsters. With danger being in such high supply, and protection being so high in demand, it is not long before you see a few donations trickle in, despite your men only patrolling around the neighborhood around your fishery. Although they scare away a few punks, one wonders what will happen when a gang decides to push their luck, and than your resolve?

1. Returning to the town square, your men and women once again begin to spread the message of your plan's to restore the city to its former behalf. And once again, they do bring more and more people into your fold, your blatant and clearly radical speeches get more diluted as more join your ranks. A few people even begin to whisper about what all this speech of brotherhood is REALLY about, and quiet rumors begin to circulate.

2. Meanwhile your attempts to set up a proper post system are slightly muddled. After all, your not the biggest name in the city yet, and there are more venerable, even if less efficient, postal services out there. Plus, not to mention the sheer scale of the city itself. Your range is but a hundred blocks. But never the less, you work on.

1. Walking through the shadows of the night, much like monsters of old, your eyes glowing a ominous red, the petty landlords and managers are far too frightened to say no. But, by the next day, you see few improvements, much to your dismay. And even worse, a few more streetlights had been bought to help illuminate the area.
2. Since the first time you entered the city, you had yet to find a man to flat out say no to your demands. Well, that is, until today. Mr. Bradering of the 6th Booker Street Workers Union is now the first person to put his foot down against your scare tactics. Flat out claiming your all push and no shove, he tells you that if you want something to be produced, you'll just have to go to the Inventors district, and pass it through regulations, like everyone else. This has riled the previously intimidated peoples, and unless this stand is put to an end, only future complications lay ahead.

1. Once again nodding their heads in understanding, the young-lings break out into the night, under the command of their charitable mistress. Setting up a fire n the center quarter of the Dock District, the people are awakened to a frightening and strangely colored fire. Unsure of what the mark even means, the people who see it feel scared and confused.

2. Scraping along the docks, the children are unsure of what to look for. Eventually though, one of the children finds what they assume a bottle of poison, only to acidentally lick one of their fingers. Dropping the bottle on the way home, they fall ill for a few days, growing worse. But, thankfully, he grows better soon afterwards.

1. During the midst of your work, a Tall, spy figure approaches through the smog, his face hidden behind a mask, yet his cloak baring the Industry District markings. Interrupting your work, he hands the worker the message, before wandering back into the fog. Upon giving the message to Commander Shatterhand, you immediately notice the Lady's stamp, and see the trademark 10,
2. Meanwhile, you continue your patrolling of the docks, ensuring their safety from scum and low life. Your men hear rumors of red eyed reapers crawling through the dark, but mostly dismiss them as the ramblings of children and idle tongues.

Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

1. Silently slicing through the Archival District's glittering waters, your Smuggler nears his connection. However, as he reaches the meet up spot with his regular provider, he finds nothing but a flaming, and bloody mess. Confused, but not one to let a opportunity go to waste, he creeps around the crime scene. Spotting what seems to be perpetrators, the Smuggler sneaks around the sharply dressed men, as they plunder and loot indiscriminately, and finds his way into the lower boiler room via a bulkhead. Spotting a few woman locked in cages, most likely slaves from outside the city, the Smuggler opens one of the cages. However, before he can free the others, he hears the approaching Mobsters. Grabbing the girl, and what ever the two of them can carry, he returns to the Mechi-Boat, and quickly jets away.

1) Returning to the streets at which the Spectre's were spotted, you find little physical evidence of the gang's supposed existence. However, there is are a few testimonies from the more pious members, who point your Knights in the right direction.

2.) As your Knights are whisked through the city's vast railway system, you soon reach the Maritime District, you are welcomed by a few Guards. They look…disappointing. Some are scrawny. Some are scruffy. They all look rather pathetic when placed next to your honorable knights. In Fact, you could almost smell the corruption from them. But, in this case, you could care not for their physical corruption. That was none of your business. You were here on more ethereal business. Reaching the market square, your knights begin looking into the frightful occurrence.

2. Walking through the city as discretely as possible, you and your men find the location with relative ease. And, even better, along the way, you happen upon the corpses of the guard. Stealing his clothing, a plan springs into motion: you send some men dressed as guards towards the scene. Figuring this would be a regular pat down, and bribe, the Smugglers are surprised when they are lined up against a wall. But, as your men appear out of their hiding spaces, they find out too late that this was no raid. This was a massacre. Your men put out a volley of shots, each one making a man slump over dead. When the smoke clears, your men have utterly slaughtered the smugglers, leaving you to loot at your leisure. Guns, drugs, contraband, even human slaves. Every vice under the sun seems to be in the small cutter ship, and as you leave with a full wallet, and a steady supply of sin. The next day, the man who gave you the job comes by the casino, and secretly presses a envelope into your hand, before making his way back into the Gambling line. Inside, your payment, and a note, telling you that you there is more work awaiting you.

Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.

Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

Name: Amon Fogel
Faction Name: Savage 86s
Fluff: Amon Fogel is a male human that is nearly 8 feet tall. He was never normal, but when he formed the Savage 86s, he went from bearable, to edge-master supreme. While high on drugs, Fogel became convinced that the secrets of the universe were literally behind his eyes, so he cut much of his own face off. During his pain coma, he had a vision in which he saw what he believed the problem of humanity was; to soft, to mechanical, to dependent. He became so convinced of this that he decided to spend his life on a 1 man mission to cause the apocalypse. His first act of mayhem was burning a small-time set leader alive in 3 tires full of fuel. By the law of the street in that set at the time, he became the leader, and the Savage 86s were born. His face has since healed, but there is no question it's been mutilated at some point, and Fogel most usually wears a metal samurai mask & helmet (even though he is white) to hide his face's appearance. His face is obviously a transplanted face, but he does not have open injuries.
Faction Fluff: Savage 86s is divided into 4 tiers, The Crimson King (Fogel), The Regents of Inferno (closest advisors) The Arch-dukes of Hell (high level minions), and the Demons (day to day minions). Evil spirits, black magic symbols, and people in torment are popular tattoos among them, Note that this is simply the structure, it doesn't imply that any of these posts (except crimson king) are already full. There is very little the Savage 86s won't do to you if you come under their power, and necklacing, lynching, and dismemberment are common-practice among them. Entry is called "birth" in their slang and it is usually some form of trial by pain, though birth can also be the applicant having to do something to someone else, usually an unlucky innocent, but rarely a family member. Women who are to be full time prostitutes are sexed in rather than the trial by pain, meaning they have sex until they can't stand it anymore, and then they're in. Once you're in, you're in for life, and the only way out is to cut 1 hand and 1 foot off with a saw.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

Despite that, she seems to talk with confidence, and perhaps even a hint of bravado. After talking a while, you are able to discern a bit more about her: Named Patricia, she had lived most of her life at a orphanage in one of the far off colonies of New Moirai, until she and the rest of them were captured by Slavers, and brought to New Moirai. Although admitting she was never great at math, she seems eager to help her rescuers in any way possible.

1. Heading deeper into the Industry district, more clues come to light, revealing the path of chaos that these Spectres had. More secrets slip the mouth of the workers, but many of the more previous coresponder have gone silent, refusing to speak to your men about the spectre's ongoing activities. It seems that even as you search, these spectres sink their grasp deeper into the city… And worse, as you discover gruesome scenes splayed across the area of known operations of the gang, each one a minor manager or union head. It is clear, that they are not some petty gang.

>EVENTS:
>BOTANICAL:
Throughout the lower sections of the Submerged Botanical District, many mutants and gangs have been increasing in activity, for unknown reasons. Quickly, they are moving higher in the levels, and the Recommended safe zone has now been moved to level 3. The Botanical Safety Association alerts all those below that line to move, or no longer be under the limited protection of the district.
>MARITIME:
In the first time since her inauguration, the District Lady has made an announcement: “…To those of my fair district, you musn’t be afraid. Much like the great Scourge, we suffer hard times. Botanical, flooded. Archival and Core, locked and barred by hedonism. Industrial, blinded by faith. I know that times are rough. But, I know it is my duty, as District Lady, to enforce order onto society. And I take that duty seriously. As of the past few years, I have been working on numerous projects, some involving countermeasures to the Scourge, some against the rampant criminals and revolutionaries flooding our streets, and now, one of them is complete, and many are nearing completion. I will reveal more about this project during its unveiling next week, and believe me. Maritime will change. For the better.”
>ARCHIVAL:
For a moment, the electrical power of the District falters, for but a mere moment. Lights black out, Terminals power down, or runoff of internal batteries. Soon, though, the power is returned, and the Intercom speaks. “Sorry about that. Little malfunction with the power grid for a moment. We fixed it. No need to worry. The District Lady has it under control. Just like always. Thank you for your time, gents and ladies.”

Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

1&2: The conflict at the 5th Dock's square was terrible, many facing death on both sides. At Johnson's request, both the bodies of the revolutionaries and the Guards were to be taken to be buried, to pay some respect to both sides of the fight. But to ensure that nothing would be wasted, the Guards would be looted of their equipment to not make the fight a total loss.
>12 Commonfolk, 1 Dockman (w/ Basic Pistol)
3: The latest conflict made it clear that Johnson can no longer preach in public his cause. With that in mind, it seems like the revolution needed to gain support outside the sight of the district's Guards, as the Dockhands were sent out in secret to convince people to join personally, instead of Johnson himself preaching to the masses.

It ain't tough but if we do this right we can have a real boil up. They boys can use a workout and the important thing is stopping dinner from escaping. Tiger Sharks will go from the front, Hammerheads will encircle them and just go to town with the clubs, aim for the brainpan because a smashed up claw is no good for the pot. Lemons can keep watch for reinforcments while the last Hammer can keep manning the Radar so no nasty surprises ruin our lucky catch.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

1. The Royal Society club is already seeing great popularity. As I suspected, SOCIETY will require more servants - but the third, I think, of a more offensive nature. While the purpose of the majority of society's lower-class pawns is to expand the reach of SOCIETY via influence and eavesdropping, the time may come when a more aggressive approach is needed - or a more direct note left. An agent of society, rather than a member of servant, I suppose. One particularly skilled scalpel will be all we need for some time since.
2. With the expansion of SOCIETY'S actual ranks, some requisition will be needed at all levels, and I do not intend to spend multiple trips back and forth to the docks. The Clubhouse needs better furnishings, high-quality drinks and food, and high-name artwork - at least at a basic level - to establish itself as respectable. A custom-made ring, diminutive and unassuming enough to be unnoticeable, will prove essential for SOCIETY members soon enough, emblazoned with an insignia meaningless and harmless to any who might not understand its purpose - a good deal of them will be as invaluable as the upgrades to the Clubhouse in expanding the influence and allure of an organized underground meetinghouse for only the most exclusive and high-named individuals. The last item we'll need are some armaments - not for the actual members, of course, as they should have their own private bodyguards and servants (and it would be terribly garish to use a SOCIETY agent in public) - but a grouping of smallarms and assassination tools via poisons and the like will be essential for later usage by SOCIETY agents, and I do not intend to run low on them if they are needed later on. Better to stock up now. As our stable income is not likely to be used for any other purpose, expend all of it on these facilities. The opening of another Clubhouse - or another SOCIETY front - is long off, and the wealthy patrons of SOCIETY are always there if money is needed for whatever reason. Besides, as long as SOCIETY expands, tithes and joining fees (as well as upgrading fees when we grow expansive enough) will cover all expenses incurred.

Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

Covered in brass and iron, he turns to you, his brown Trenchcoat fluttering the light breeze. He moves slowly, but with a heavy clunking sound, as if he was some heavy industry machine. "You know, I would ask if you had come to pay respects…" He begins, his voice a deep, synthesized baritone. "But, from the look of those bodies you're carrying, I wonder if you even know what the word 'Respect' means. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt though, and offer this: Give yourselves up, or things are gonna get loud. I'd prefer the first option, considering I've got better things to do than deal with some two bit gangbangers." He gives the Common folk a pensive stare, his body thrumming.

After a few recent events, it seems that the District Lady has finally mobilized the first of her many new policies, with that being the reveleaning of the Black Ergets, the Lady's personal fighting force. Scheduling a parade through out the Streets, and through numerous Gang Territories, the Lady has made it clear that she intends for this well supplied, and well organized fighting force to quickly restore order to some of the worst off areas of her district. This force of elite troopers seemed incredibly prepared, and bare a force that seems overwhelming, but they seem perhaps…over equipped? Are Tanks of all things necessary?

After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

The commonfolk looked between themselves, while they like the idea of overthrowing the District Ladies, they are having second thoughts if rebelling means fighting this, machine.
However, they would be quieted down, as the Dockhand assigned to assist them went out in front, pistol twirling around his forefinger. "Well lad, this so called 'Respect' is as mystical as unicorns, given how the law shot down men who haven't lifted a finger to inflict violence. But while I'll reject being locked up, I'll appreciate the choice ya gave."
>APPROACHING ALLIES:

1-12: Due to the sheer numerical advantage, the commonfolk began pelting and chipping down the machine's armour, throwing rocks & stray bricks, alongside strikes with spare tools to it's chasses.
>12 Commonfolk
13: Meanwhile, the Dockhand keeps his distance away from the ironcladed Jazz machine, avoiding as much clanging and dooting as he can, firing his pistol at any points on him that looks remotely like a weak spot.

Name:Professor. Archimedes Carter
Faction Name: The Sons of Archimedes
Fluff: Professor. Archimedes Carter was once a respected teacher at a Archival District's University and a well known inventor until the scourge hit his recent investment amongst the coast and a half mechanical squid is found . Now resent allegations of fraud, unlawful experimentations, blackmail, and conspiracy are now brought to light, the name Archimedes Carter is now mud amongst the educational and innovative elite of the Archival District . As he escaped he now plots revenge against them. Now he's a wanted man who is known for kidnapping locals and subjecting them to experimentation while trying to undermine the elite.
Faction Fluff: The Sons of Archimedes are well known for being mostly comprised of mechanical men and sometimes half mechanical and half organic men that follow his every command.

As the figure listens to the dock man, all he can do is shake his head. "Y'know, I catch your drift. But, call it a gut feeling: Your not exactly the best of men, are ya?" As the Commonfolk scramble together, he sets his foot down deep into the soil, his body thrumming with pressure.
1. [BIG-BAND][Concussive][Distorted][Mechanical]- Unfurling his coat, it is clear to see that his machine of a man is…well, more machine than man! Huge orchestral instruments burst out, easily dwarfing even the largest of bassoons, and ready themselves for the attack. And what a attack it is! Blasting beautiful beats burst from the wood-brass battery, blowing back the crowd! But, the Musicians performance is not over yet! Moving with the speed of a true professional, he skirts close in and personal, bashing aside the confused and discombobulated Commonfolk, going straight for the head of the Dock Workers. Nobody likes a bully, especially one that's packing a pistol.

Although heavily outnumbered, the brass giant knows no bounds! Blasting through the Commonfolk, the pistol barely puts a dent into the chassis as he steams towards the Dockman. Closing in on the leader, his coat unfurls once more, revealing a huge set of Brass Knuckles, which lashes out angrily, sending the Dockman spinning through air, but before he can land, Big Band has one more trick up his sleeve. Two sides of a bell spring out, catching him mid-air, before slamming into the ground, capturing him. Turning back to the Commonfolk, he sighs.
"Hmph. You have no idea what you're getting into, do you, huh? I should'a figured. You gangs…No, revolutionaries We're playing the same beat, but while i'm tuning to jazz, your jumpin to the blues. Listen, I get where you all are coming from. But now is neither the time, nor the place. And you know what? I'll sweeten the deal. Keep your head out of this whole revolutionary business, finish burying those bodies, and you all go free."
The common folk take a moment, talking amongst themselves, before agreeing to the Giant's proposition. "Now, don't let me ever catch wind of you lot getting caught up in this madness ever again, or you'll be hearing from me. There's already enough madness in the city, no need to make it worse. Now, I gotta get goin. I've spent too much time here as sis." And with that the giant grabs the bell containing the Dockman, and with a roar, blasts off into the sky like a rocket.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

2. A man's reputation is the most he has, and one of mystery and conflicting rumors is always a preferable and delightful thing compared to that of a poor man. Let us see if we can create a technique for spreading rumors throughout New Moirai of the fantastical adventures and peculiarities of Jay Gadenson, the man who drifted coolly out of nowhere and bought a palace in the Archival District. It need not even be positive rumors, for rumors are rumors. All it need be is a rumor that those would share in giggles, gasps, and whispers while sharing drinks, arguing over which is correct. This mask of mystery will give us later benefit in various public endeavors +Advanced Charisma

The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

1. Unfortunate. Let us expand the search, then - a suitable agent of SOCIETY, I feel, is a necessary and immediate measure. More than just someone who knows how to deal with 'issues', having a on-site doorman and guard for the Clubhouse is an absolutely essential facet. Certainly, the servants can kill most men, but we don't want the uninitiated to know that, do we? People tend to be so much more attracted to a place when they feel it is not only refined, but also protected, and someone to stand at the door and keep our the riffraff ensures that (as well as opening the door so that Society members might not have to do it themselves).
2. While that's being done, finish up the renovations. A doorman will certainly increase the allure of an exclusive members-only club with whispers of a different level of membership, but his(or her) primary purpose is still to serve as an assassin and faceless soldier of society. The primary draw will, of course, be finely imported Venetian furniture, an elegant Roman facade, pre-release manuscripts from England, caviar straight from Russia, and respected, upstanding speakers - that sort of thing, fine-tuned to the technological and contemporary sensibilities of the archival district. And besides, such prominent speakers might deserve a letter of invitation themselves.

1. Of course they're not happy, they're here to make other men happy. Still, I don't like the chances of em escaping and blabbing off to the cops.
I have an idea to test their loyalty and earn us a nice penny. Let's see if anyone up above is interested in buying a lady for themselves.
First off, we give the gals priveleges, relax em a bit. Nice jewlery, fine clothes, champagne, comfy girls are pretty girls. Let's use say, 50 bucks on this.
Once we get their guard down we someone who's interested in buying one of em, then we have them pretend to be an undercover cop and tell one of the girl's they plan to "rescue" them. If the gal goes along with em and tries to escape, we sell her for a discount. If she's too scared to even think about leaving or better still, rats em out to us, we keep her and tell the man (or lady, you never know) we'll offer him free drinks and a discount on the next person we can sell.
This will be how we wean out the loyal from the unloyal.
2. If we're going to be getting in the business of people we're going to need professionals. Okay boys spend 100 dollars and use our connection to get us in touch with some professional people traffickers for a steady source of Jane Doe's. We'll act as the middlemen of this gig, the underground bags em, we make em pretty, tag em and sell em to some well to do-os or keep em as whores, and split the profits with em. Sets a healthy relationship it does.
I send 3 main men to do this, armed with pistols and cutters just in case.

1: The team hasn't arrived back from the graveyard, with the thought of them being ambushed by the Guards, and gunned down in disrespect. In any of those cases, Johnson directed for the remaining dockhands to head out and recruit new revolutionaries, to cover the alleyways with posters and persuade the people to the cause. With the previous shoot-out in the dockyard's square, there would be some boon to their cause due to the Guards apparently gunning down innocent civilians.

Or was he a spy, sent to infiltrate the city and bring it down! Some say that he's a exiled prince, or that he was some thief who had hit the jack pot and was living large!

But, with your forces on the case, you knew that soon, no one would fear the Cyclops; Afterall, they would be too busy fearing you.

1. Although the man approaches, the Girls seem mostly quiet, and indifferent. They seem too nervous to speak, too scared to question. They simply nod their heads as your man speaks, but never do they act any more. You never hear a peep out of them concerning the act, but they never do rat out the stand in. Perhaps they are simply too scared to do much more than complain?
2. Setting yourselves up as the middle man was easy, but locating the slavers was not so: Sneaking girls into the Archival District was the prefered option it would seem. The Slavers you talked to seemed a bit skitish, and made a explicit note that the girls and men they brought in, were specifically out of town, essentially nobodies. And shipping them in from that far away cost quite a bit of money. You brought up the idea of just taking the Archival's poor, but they just look at you stupid, before agreeing to your deal

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

No invitation necessary, merely a simplicity in the heart for a good time, and you can waltz through Gadenson's door. One day, perhaps, she'll wander through his door as well. In the mean time, it will make a great way to recruit as well as make connections. Set up the party, get the catering, band, and alcohol, and spread the word through any and all means!

Faction Name: The Iron Watch
Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

1. With those essential facets out of the way, SOCIETY's influence could be enormously expanded through the acquisition of one of man's most exploitable vices - gluttony. The Archival district is hard-pressed for world-class restaurants, which means the acquiring and renovation of one should be simple enough - and SOCIETY's influence should well ensure a steady flow of customers. High society never spends all its time in one location, so acquiring - or creating - the district's finest restaurant will be a logical expansion of influence and power, as well as providing an amicable source of both funds and well-trained servants for the group beneath the surface.
2. On that note, it is well time to expand the ranks of SOCIETY proper. With the Clubhouse and its reputed whispers becoming the most popular place for the richest and most powerful, the pool of suitable recruits is expanding rapidly, and we can become more selective while also having an easier time of it. As SOCIETY grows in repute and admiration, we ought grow our membership as well, selecting and bringing the most elite members of the Archival district into our fold - each Count and Marquis serving to further expand our control over the district's functions, and closer to the district's Lady.
I hear even those who control the voting blocks and camera controls have expressed some interest in the most beautiful Club in the district…

2. As you open the doors to your party, you find, to your shock, that there was but a few scarce party goers stumbling through, already drunken. Appalled by the lack of reception, you pull one of the few sober attendee's aside, asking him a few questions.

After tracking the Cyclops movements, you make your way towards their supposed next stop: After deducing that the attacks against the Food stores had been made by the Cyclops, you hurriedly made plans to attack what could only be considered their appearance: Redistributing that food to the poor. However, despite the speed at which your knights hurry, they are unable to catch the heretics in the act. As you approach, your righetous steel in your hands, and holy fire burning in your hearts, you spot your quarry, as they have begun to make leave of their scene.

With the Egrets in action, many felt that there was no need for the beacon. Further still, there were rumors of a whole group of your men getting tossed about by a metal man.

Quickly setting themselves to work, you cross your arms. However, as you watch them work, Patricia comes quickly. "Hey Boss! You got a package in the mail!" She calls out.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

Name:Professor. Archimedes Carter
Faction Name: The Sons of Archimedes
Fluff: Professor. Archimedes Carter was once a respected teacher at a Archival District's University and a well known inventor until the scourge hit his recent investment amongst the coast and a half mechanical squid is found . Now resent allegations of fraud, unlawful experimentations, blackmail, and conspiracy are now brought to light, the name Archimedes Carter is now mud amongst the educational and innovative elite of the Archival District . As he escaped he now plots revenge against them. Now he's a wanted man who is known for kidnapping locals and subjecting them to experimentation while trying to undermine the elite.
Faction Fluff: The Sons of Archimedes are well known for being mostly comprised of mechanical men and sometimes half mechanical and half organic men that follow his every command.

1: News that the ambush didn't lead to more casualties brought a bit of relief to Johnson, but the fact that they got routed by what equates to a half-man half-saxophone is in no doubt embarrassing. However, the commonfolks were key in assisting the Revolution getting a steady grip in the local port, so they were sent out with a few men to help recover the rest of the routed.

After all, he is wanted by the Guards due to his actions, so surely it's only a matter of time… Maybe he could help out with the Post Office upstairs from the lower basement, surely they might need a hand in making it better, maybe recruit some Couriers to help ferry mail for the local city blocks.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

Coming to a abrupt clash in the middle of the street, chaos reigns as the Cyclops' men lay down a steady line of fire towards the charging knights. Metal buckles, and one knight falls, denied the glorious death he had deserved. But, soon, the others are on upon them to avenge their brethren. Far more proficient in combat than the Red Eyes, the Knights quickly begin to cut through them, cleaving through with righteous anger. As the din of battle calms, the dead are acounted for, and to the knight's dismay, only three bodies of the enemy are found. The Crimson Skeleton had escaped, sacrificing his men.

Crimson Skeleton stands and looks. his men were dead, they died for the cause. but he turned and gazed at the factory. all around, not a single worker had risen up to help them. out of dozens of them there, who outnumbered the knights, who had wrenches, clubs, and their own hands. not one. the realization dawned on him fully. it didn't matter if he fled the scene to rebuild Cyclops. the workers and the people did not believe in themselves, and no amount of fighting, impressing, or teaching the would ever bring them out of cowardice to fight the oppressor. disheartened and failed, he decides to make a charge against the five remaining Knights firing his gun. it was all he had left.

With shallow, lifeless breathes, the Crimson Skeleton holds the rifle shakely in his hands. It had all been for naught. Nothing had mattered. The workers didn't care, his men had been slaughtered. All he had left to do, was to die. Die, and let his dream end. But, as he turned the corner, he felt a sudden chill. A cold shiver ran through his body, as the world before him seemed shattered and broken. No Knights, no corpses. No one.

Name: Dr. Arkonas Robinson
Faction Name: Robinson's Garden
Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

As he escaped he now plots revenge against them. Now he's a wanted man who is known for kidnapping locals and subjecting them to experimentation while trying to undermine the elite.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

For those who wish to join the game late, or for those who lost their gangs, but aren't willing to make a new one, you can now join the game as Solo-Heros!
Some notes about Solo-Heros:
-Solo Hero's roll a d10 instead of a d5 in Combat, but still apply bonuses and tags in the same way.
-Solo-Hero's roll 1d100 for actions every turn. Once a Solo-Hero has reached 10 Tags, they gain another Dice Roll.
-Solo Hero's can give factions a bonus, if recruited. However, if the Solo-Hero leaves, you loose the bonus
-Solo Hero's loose health in combat instead of henchmen, and only die if they reach 0 HP. Unless otherwise noted, they may flee combat after the Combat calculations and damage has been dealt.

Faction Name: Robinson's Garden
Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

Name: Commander Viktor Shatterhand
Faction Name: The Iron Watch
Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

>Fluff: No mess, no frills that's the life in Industrial district. People just didn't have the time to be fancy and add on a bunch zips and zaps. If things weren't up to code they were dismantled and upgraded, like the clergy and guard organizations. However, the more seeder parts of life in the area seemed to be doing just fine with the being dismantled part but were serverly lacking in the upgrading. A thug would show up, cause trouble and dismantled by the guard. Foolishness. The guard had upgraded, criminals needed to upgrade. What was worse was that the information about being better was sitting in front of their faces. They didn't need to be overwhelmingly better, this was a stage show, slightly better was enough. The machines didn't care if you stared at them all day as long as you weren't impeding anyone one while you did it. There was no extra zips and zaps to confuse the design, so simple observation was all that was needed to stay ahead. Did the new model have different leg casing? There was an upgrade to the machines speed, better practice your sprints. Had a new model shown to deploy their shields two seconds faster? Learn to draw your pistol and aim three seconds faster. Simple. Yet, his former boss couldn't seem to grasp that concept and continued to squander their resources uselessly. So he left, after putting a round in the former boss's knee when they rejected his notice of departure.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

Smells like opportunity. Might be able to build some favors and get people in our debt, offer some protection and intimidate looters. Or something. Could always use orphan spies for eyes and ears.
Alright, I'm taking us all out to where the fires were to see what we can make from it.

he wakes up. he looks and sees the city again. all that he had seen and felt, what he had learned over there is fresh in his mind. but for all that he witnessed, it failed to answer the question: "why am I still here." he didn't understand why he should care about what he learned, about the city or its people, why he should even be alive anymore. all that he believed in was folly. he has a mask, a human face. he puts it on and some shades, no longer wearing the uniform of a dead cause, and walks to somewhere, anywhere but here. he looked for a purpose.
#1 he didn't understand what was happening, but that was an understatement. he still didn't fathom any of what he had heard or seen from the being, what ir would happen, or what the "sigil" was. he didn't even remember seeing it or holding it. memory did flood him seeing the news of workers in uproar over the "martyrs" but yet he felt. . .cold to it. they were only willing to lash out once the Knights had left. but change was awash over his body 1/6 ???

1+2. As you begin work on the second strongman, you start as you usually do; Splicing in the hormonal muscle growth booster, and augmented hearts that would allow the Super Human strength you had developed. However, as you work, you turn your back for a moment. As you pilfer through your tool box, you turn back, only to find that the Hormone boost has gone utterly out of control. The man before you has had a reaction of some sorts, and his muscles have exploded in unrestrained growth. Driven mad by the pain, he rips from his restraints, and thrashes across the room, before smashing through a wall in a blind rage. You can only shudder at the destruction the creature would create. Normally you'd say that it would be somebody elses problems; But if the mutant was captured by some one else, they could not only replicate the procedure, but also possibly find a connection back to you.

1. No matter where the courier looks in the industry districts, he finds no leads, and no traces of the former Industry based resistance group. They're HQ ransacked, their men strung up, and their leader no where to be found, it seems that for the time being, cyclops is dead.
2. Finding a decent set of wheels is no small feat in the Maritime district. You find a old jalopy, outdated, but…Well, functional. But you need to work the seller down a bit.

1-2. Exploring the burned out mansions with a few of your men, you find a few bits and bobs of wealth. Nice little bits to sell, a few things to pocket. The orphans you find, those not carted off to the orphanage, seem quiet. They're ash covered, and the few people left to oversee them don't look much better. But as you start to notice a few…things. Eyes, for example, keep popping up everywhere. Windows, arch ways, ruined paintings. Just…Eyes. Eventually, stumbling through the ash, you kick a small cylinder out of a pile of burnt books. Picking it up, you are greeted once again with the Eye.

You fall asleep. You awake, but somewhere else, and with a burning pain on your marked hand, that quickly subsides. Your surrounding seems different. The world around you is brighter, colorful. A golden skyline illuminates your view.

>MORE FIRES THROUGHOUT THE ARCHIVAL DISTRICT
Once again, a crazed pyromaniac has set fire to numerous estates, parks, and overpasses through the Archival District. The purpose of these immolations is unclear, and continues to bamboozle the Archival District's finest. When asked, the District Associate had this to say: "Its, just a matter of time. Matter of time before we catch them. This isn't really a concern. But, we will do our best. Our best to catch them." This journalist is happy to report however, that many of the estates burned, were in older, and deteriorated states.
>MORE MISSING IN MARITIME
As of this report, around 100 people have been declared missing. This is disconcerting, but coupled with the numerous tomb robberies, things have unsettled the Maritime district. Even the Black Egrets, who are now fortifying the Dock Yards into what seems to be a HQ, seem disconcerted.

1: While being able to afford things like the typewriters and supplies for the office was nice and all, manpower was a severe issue. Most of the people with Johnson are too suspicious to be sending mail in broad daylight, while the two commonfolk at hand were overworked with the flow of mail and packages. It was clear that the post office needs to hire new people. Given the resent cases of disappearances, however, the Beacon would have a token to play in the hiring of workers. By providing them with a better working environment compared to other working class jobs, and with the security against any threats of kidnapping, Johnson hoped that the work force for the post office would be expanded.
>Recruit office workers and the likes for the Post Office. +Advanced Propoganda +Basic Recruiting +1 Couriers +2 Commonfolk
2-3: Meanwhile, the warrant for Johnson's arrest continues to drain on his patience. He was never a man to direct from the shadows, yet as long as the warrant remains, he can not walk openly in public. However, with what the commonfolk said about what happened with their attempts to bury the corpses, and the fact that the Beacon showed no hostilities until the Guards opened fire upon them in the dockyard's square, Johnson knew there must be a way to turn this around. Infact, he knew just the guy to do so, someone who used his Post Office before and left a business card. At the dusk of day, hiding himself from guards' sight through covering clothes and defensive dockmen, he headed to the office of the person in question…
In order to clear his name, Johnson would need a Attorney. An Ace Attorney.

Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

You gain a bonus when ever rolling to negotiate with those of the upper echelon.

Name: Commander Viktor Shatterhand
Faction Name: The Iron Watch
Fluff: This city is diseased,
The Scourge brought in death and evil from the seas, corrupting the entirety of this once grand city. Such a shame to see order and justice be tossed to the side at the slightest nudge from chaos and disorder.
It is quite obvious that the comman man can not decide for themself what is right and just, and thus it falls onto those who are willing to grab for it and pursue Order among all things. Some will claim that my methods are archaic, or brutal, or perhaps even inhumane. However the times we are living in are brutal and inhumane, and if this is what it takes to restore order then I shall burn this city to the ground and begin anew.
Faction Fluff: The Iron Watch shall defend the rabble of the city from it's own corruption, any injustice shall be dealt with harshly so that chaos will not grow from fertile soil. The prisons of the Watch and it's enforcers shall be feared, and this fear shall prevent criminal thoughts from ever coming to fruition. No evil or chaos shall escape our gaze, nor outrun the Hounds of Justice.
Our Justice shall prove our Might, our Convictions shall strengthen our armor, Our very souls shall be dedicated to Order and the Iron Watch.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

Walking through the dark streets, it seems everyone is on edge, as they crowd around the bars and well lit areas. Well, every one but a few quiet, dark faced men. Suspecting something foul a foot, the Smuggler gives chase after them as they flee into the shadows. Firing a shot after them, one of the men fall over, his colleagues abandoning him. Pulling aside his dirty suit, the man seemed long dead even before being shot. Reporting back, the Smuggler seemed…Unnerved.

And then you met the knight. Standing at 9'ft, and holding what seemed to be a anti-tank rifle, the giant "knight' was being scrambled over by a team of professionals, working on any last minute calibrations. As you neared, the chief scientists smiled and greeted you. Proud to have one of their creations hand picked for field testing, the lower-ranked adepts seemed overjoyed.

>EVENT:
New Moirai; A city, filled with people, life and energy. From the glowing halls of Archival, the Golden Sky Scrapers of CORE and the bustling markets of Maritime, few cities in the world could even begin to compare to the life and energy that New Moirai had. Usually, at least.
On this night, New Moirai sat quietly, as if holding its breath as a dark shade of silence settled upon the peoples all across the district. No one seemed at ease, and many people would come to speak of this night in vivid memory, as few could dare sleep. It was as if the utter quietness of the city had taken a hold on the lungs of its people, bottling up their air.
And then releasing it in one fell, screech. In the Maritime District, few were prepared for the sudden and catastrophic destruction of one of the Meidician Casino, home to one of Maritimes most vicious gangs. Broke almost cleanly in half, by hulking, giant hands made of bone and nerves, all could see the tumbling of the Tower.
But the source of the destruction quickly disappeared as soon as it came, the giant hands falling apart into the bones of the deceased, as tower toppled into the streets below. But, the nightmare was not soon over. Reanimated by the hateful energies, the bones of the fallen began to rise, rebuilding themselves in horrific shapes and attacking nearby people. It was only thanks to the quick and tireless counter-attack of the Black Ergets, were the battle lines made, and the District not over ran.
"People of the Maritime District! This is your lady speaking! Please stay within your homes and estates, and do not leave under any circumstances! If you are unable to return home, proceed to the nearest church!"
>ANNOUNCEMENT:
The D3 rolled at the beginning of the chart will determine how many turns it will take the undead forces to start breaking through the Black Ergets lines. It will also represent how long the Undead will attack after breaking through. You have that many turns to prepare, and than stave off the attacks.

1-2: Johnson would be, horrified at such sights, of dead men walking once more, striking against those who still walk as living beings. While the Marinetime District's Lady may be insane for saying that the populus should hide away, the Black Ergets may provide some time to rally up a militia to provide much needed defence against the rising tide of the undead.
Heading back into the streets, as the forbidding thunder from the clouds above strikes the city, Johnson would preach to the fleeing masses, requesting those willing to defend their livelyhoods to stand forward and bring forward what they can.For it is now not about the threat of the government that endangers the people, but a clear, evil force striking against the people of New Moirai, and it is up to them to assist in defending their kin against such horrifying monstosities!

As the gunfire of the Black Erget was heard as they fended off the shambling hordes, a Courier was sent to deliver a critical message to Ellis Kane. Avoiding the Marinetime Guards patrolling the streets, she would reach the place where he would be: The HQ of Kane & Kane Docking Co. Entering inside, she urged the dock workers inside to meet with him, as she has a letter to deliver.
Once it reached him, the letter would be rather to the point, about what Johnson asks of the leader of the Dock Workers Union:
"To Ellis Kane,
I am James Jennifer Johnson, otherwise known as 'JJJ' when it comes to corporate manners. I am here to ask for aid in setting up a bastion against the rather apparent threat of the walking dead. For while the District Lady suggests that the people retreat to their homes, it will leave them divided and defenceless when the 'Black Ergets' lines fall.
All I request is three things: Supply able men and weapons to help defend the weak and the helpless, guide those fearing for their lives to the bastion I speak of, and hold the line when the district lady's army falters. I have the hope that the people can be saved from this necromantic threat, and through our combined efforts, we may save even more.
~ JJJ"

My every slash must be quick and lethal, my guard seemingly open but insurmountable, I must be quick and efficient in battle. Peace must be the ever clam eye of the storm in battle, the rock that the enemy breaks against. My foes must see me kill without effort in masse, and so must my followers. I must be the terror and rallying point, the void against which all the battle plays. 1/2

The Kane family has always been seen as one of the “good ones” always supplying a good wage and decent working conditions. However come the Scourge that destroyed much of the Maritime district the Kane family has been brought low. Ellis Kane is a hard man, whilst born rich he cares more for an honest days labour and always used what he could to help his fellow man. All around him he has seen the district decay and suffer under the gangs. Ellis stands at almost seven feet tall a monster of a man with a pragmatic attitude and honorable personality to match it up. He has vowed to return the Maritime district to prosperity or die trying.

Name: Jay Gadenson
Faction Name: The Gilded Ash
Fluff: Truly, if there ever was the most exemplar example of hope on this forsaken Earth, it is Jay Gadenson. A man born in destitution and poverty, his ambition allowed himself the power, the strength, the will, to do whatever it is he desired. But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

Name: Dr. Arkonas Robinson
Faction Name: Robinson's Garden
Fluff: Dr Robinson was once a normal biologist living in the Botanical District. He is one of those that specialized in altering living creatures and gene splicing to create new ones. After the scourge he continued to go to work dutifully, and this ended in his slow slip into madness. Some might say it was the mix of airborne altered viruses and chemicals that did it, some might say it was the cramped dark interrior, some might say it was that one time he had to implant a man's brain into a dog because the person truly thought they were a dog, and some might say it was the rampant alchoholism and abuse of failed drugs that were supposed to make you smarter after the dog surgery. Whichever the case Dr. Robinson's mind finally broke and he slipped into the depths fo the Botanical District. He reaperaed recently, leading a gang of the insane and twisted.
Faction Fluff: A group of experiments, altered humans, and others who have joined under Dr. Robinson in his mad quest. Usually just end up securing resources, test subjects, and materials for his experiments in exchange for protection and power.

Faction Name: Society (The Council, The Economic League of Fellows, The Men in White, The Golden Tribe, ETERNITY)
Name: No One in Particular
Faction Fluff: Society is difficult to pin down. Its nuances and details are ever-shifting, moving about with the specific details of the age. When land is conquered, society changes with its conquerors, in the small manners of enunciation in which people speak, in the fashionable dances and clothes, in the way people make love. Oftentimes, the details of high society change - the name, the ornamentation, the dressing. But society is independent of itself - it could not survive otherwise. No one man can throttle fashion, society, organization. It would be, simply put, impossible. Which is why the steadily-increasing whispers of a second society - a council, an economic league, a golden tribe of Ishmael - are ridiculous. Parties thrown between friends are just that, and nothing more. The webweaving of societal politics goes on as usual, independent and individual, and the hedonistic details of the rich are as uncoordinated and spontaneous as ever.
No One in Particular could possibly control fashion - could control society - could control a city through its vice. It's simply not possible.
Fluff: A man in a mask can be anyone he chooses; or, if they prefer, No One in Particular. So long as the mask remains, so, too, does the mystique.

But yet again still, Fate found itself destined to curse him, with the most terrible curse of all: Love. He fell in love Delores Aberdine, a woman as fair as her family was rich, and indeed his limitless ambition was found corralled by the lasso of love, so that it would forever be for Delores, and her alone. And yet, Fate found itself cursing him again, and set Jay off to war in the conquest of Allertenosa for the sake of resources. In that time Jay found himself glory and fame, and yet lost his love. While he was away, his beloved was arranged with Peter Vandeross, belonging to one of the wealthiest families in New Moirai. Arriving back and learning this, he set out on one mission: To become rich and prestigious enough to win her back. The source of his fortune, whether from crime, drugs, real estate, stocks, it need not matter. With this fortune, he would not spend it on parties and celebrations; he would spend it on the GREATEST of parties and celebrations. Every night, every week. And the whole of New Moirai was invited, from the lowest of dregs, to the wealthiest banker.
Yet indeed, merely owning the money is nothing. The stain on Gadenson, the stain of a poorman, is forever, and so forever keeps him out of reach of the well-to-do, and his Delores. But all the more still, he will flaunt his gold, throw his parties, throw his extravagence in all places and facets in every way, in the hope that one day his Delores will love him again. Where a lesser man might say "You can't do the impossible,", Jay Gadenson will say, "My dear boy, of course you can."
Faction Fluff: This is the collection of Gadenson's associates, his business partners and few friends he has that he has recruited on his mission. Why they signed on is irrelevant. How they will help Jay, how they can be of use, is priority. For the sake of it all, any man is worth Jay Gadenson's time, so long as it is time well spent.

2: As they were doing that, Johnson was busy gathering civilians to retreat to the Ancient Mariners Square. If people hid in their homes, they would be divided in the face of the undead horde, but if they united together in a area which also happens to be near the sea, they could even out the numerical odds and stand a better chance against the shambling corpses.

Name: Anziani Giovanni
Faction Name: Giovanni Clan
Fluff: Charming but ruthless and cunning Anziani leads the small band of vampires, most like the last remains of the mighty giovanni clan. With the mafia critically weakened, he moves to fill the void of procuring all kinds of vices and services for the denizens of the core district. His charm and vampiric beguilement surely helping him dealing with the upper class.
Faction Fluff: The remains of the giovanni clan only remember bits and pieces from before new morai. Their clan decimated, their patriarch put to the true death, they were captured and put to sleep in sarcophagion board of prisonships. Washed into the city by the scourge their sarcophagi remained sealed and undamaged until someone foolish enough managed to open the one containing Anziani. While finding the rest of this brethren, a slow and ardous search, as they seem to be scattered amongst the districts, Anziani managed to take over a (relatively) fancy nightclub, the current base of operations of the giovanni clan.

Name: Kazuo Takami
Faction Name: Akatora-Gumi
Fluff: A poor immigrant from the east, Kazuo found himself lacking a job upon arriving in the Industrial District. Meeting with several fellow of his countrymen in this foreign land, they determined to make a living no matter the method. Forming a gang, these men honed their already remarkable fighting prowess, and set out into the world, ready to face anything.
Faction Fluff: Named to exemplify their ferocity, the Akatora-Gumi will stay loyal to their contractors, that is until the gold ceases to flow, of course. They will act as enforcers, guards, and have even been known to carry out assassinations. And to cross them means death, the authorities failed to recognize the corpse of the last man to make that mistake.
