Might be difficult, but can Roman be the one the captives get all stockholm syndromey on? Also, can he have a dog?

[EuchreJack]

I'll take Hillary Thatcher, rename her to Margarette Thatcher, change her to Androgynous.

Have her go to the pawn shop and buy a can of spraypaint.  Then proceed to spray the Vegan Co-op exactly 10 times, so she has 50 juice and can recruit.  Then chat up hippies until "Conservative Alarm", at which point she leaves.

Then, move her to a new safehouse, alone from the other liberals.  Have her attend Theater classes while she attempts to recruit someone.  Take the liberal with the highest agility.  Then, give her a Magnum 44. with 3 clips, and her accomplice a pistol.

Then, they proceed to either the Factory or Oil Refinery, busting up equipment until conservative alarm, then flee.  They never strike a site that is [High Security].  Once My She-Hero has 100 juice, she only leaves the safehouse to recruit others.  After this, you may throw away her recruits as you see fit.

February Meeting: The gang met at Headout point, the place where Antonio's biological parents apparently met. It used to be a romantic place, a free place, with amazing views of the city, and a wide carpark. Now .... it was overgrown, and it's proximity to the river means that it sorta glowed at night. As for the city ... you couldn't see it through the smog. But not many people came here, so it was a perfect place for an impromptu meeting.

I came in with plans to take the homosexual agenda to the masses, as that seemed to be the issue of the day. But as soon as I walked in, and told them of my plans, I was accosted by Lionel and our newest recruit: Shepard.

"Are you mad?" Shepard asked incrediously. "We are hiding in a radioactive murk, under cover of smog, and your biggest concern are the gays?"

I was confused. "You think pollution then? Well... we don't have data on..."

Lionel sighed. "The Death Squads. While the penalty for un-regestered groups and loitering is execution on the spot, there is no point making any other law reforms! We *need* to boost public opinion on the death squads, and get them abolished!! Ideally, we would remove the death penalty completely, but for now ... the death squads should be our target"

I shuddered. He was right. But how could we go about this? We didn't have much money, and our best soldiers were gone. We needed to boost our recruits again.

We discussed. Hillary Margarette had a plan to boost public opinion. To do that, all she asked for was enough cash to buy a spraycan. I strongly doubted her ability to destroy the death squads with a spraycan, but her plan seemed robust enough. Shepard would make security uniforms, which would be stashed in the true safehouse. Shane would take to the internet again, spreading the liberal agenda, while the rest would cause general mayhem on the streets, until we had security uniforms, and enough money for guns.

[Edit]Valeria offered to help the coffers by legitimately selling art on the street in order to make some money. It was gratefully accepted[/Edit]

As for me ... well... my liberation of Shepard meant that I had a rap sheet for breaking and entering now. I couldn't stay inside though ... I needed to raise funds. And so I will. Out on the street. I hope I will never have to pay 'consequences' for liberating a human being from captivity.

[OOC] I guess I will start playing on February now [/OOC]

[Cilver]

It looks good! did you see my post about Shane Duke?

[digitCruncher]

[OOC] Yip, I did. Ill just get $360 out of the bank.

*Wallet goes *poof* with dust as I open it*

Oh. Well... that'll have to wait. Tell me what you want the gun for, and Ill get it. Ill get it in time anyway, once I am not having to scrape the barrel with funds. I can't see a good use of that $360, however. [/OOC]

February 8: Margerette has found the perfect person for her jobs: Joan Richter. She darts around like no-one I have ever seen. I only met her briefly, while I was moving the gear around. Unforutunatly, Margarette isn't talking to me after I opted to forgo her Theatre training for an expensive suit for my work. She does have a spare 9mm gun we had lying around, and she is going off to the store to see how much a 44 Magnum costs. With these conservative gun laws ... I expect not much. Not that I have any use for guns.

And I still don't have my black suit. Awesome. Although Shepard is now a fully fledged liberal member of society. I think he will be a little more loyal to our cause now.

February 9: Apparently Margerette needs another $100 before she can get a gun, plus another $60 for ammo. I have asked her to be real sneaky like, and avoid trouble, instead of shooting it.

February 12: Noel got soundly beaten last night. She is going to be out of action for a month and a half while she heals her (significant) injuries. She managed to take two of the hicks out, but ... there were just too many. I hope she gets better soon!

February 15: I have finally yielded. Joan and Margerette are going to get Univerity training in Theatre. Hopefully we will have enough money to allow them to be trained up. Although with just $200, we don't even have enough for 2 days training!! I have sent Antonio to fence thier stolen chemicals at the pawn shop, and the rest of us will try and earn as much money as possible.

February 16: Wow. Apparently those fourth-rate suits Shepard made are actually worth something! Ill get him making another batch ASAP.

February 20: Shepard has made me a first-rate black dress. Quite fitting, I must say. I expect people to take me seriously now!

February 25: I have broken off most of my regular engagements today to try and find a good thief. I *presume* crack-heads would make good thieves, so I am going to go looking for one.

In other news, Margerets and Joan's training is complete. They seem to like Uni life, but we just can't afford to keep them there! Its already cost the LCS $1,200!! And we still need to fund-raise to get Margeret's Gun...

And the training was for naught. They are still not good enough to pass as competent security guards. Apparently we are going to need to fork out ANOTHER $1,200.

But the gun has just been bought. I hope that is enough...

March 1st.

It was the final votes for all the actions of Congress today. We all awaited with baited breath what would happen.

Lionel and Shepard were both sitting in the purple grass, looking at the TV screen, and looking at Resolutions 2009-5 and 2009-6, which would limit the powers of the police, and limit the death penalty to serious misconduct. It wasn't much, but it was a start. Now, we looked to see what would happen...

The votes trickled in. 2009-5, the death penalty was soundly crushed, 265 to 65. Furthermore, 2009-6 didn't fare any better: Defeated 258 to 58.

Furthermore, with Noel out of action, and my experimentation with the crack heads (all who were too STUPID to wield a lock-pick) failed, I guess I will have to rely on mutants for security uses.

We did find the car, however. Apparently the cops didn't confiscate it after the cable TV raid, and it was just sitting there for half a month!! We had a good hoot at that, that the cops were so close, and yet so far, for dealing a devastating blow to the LCS. So for the meantime, Margarette will just have to kick in doors to gain entry. And apparently, police uniforms are better uniforms than security guard uniforms for entering those sites, which is great! Things are looking .... alright I guess.

Self defense, but it isn't important-just the weapon I'd prefer if he got one. I was referring more about the nickname though.

[digitCruncher]

March Meeting:

At the end of the reports there was silence for a good five minutes. It was painful to see the congress cheering and patting each other on the back, the ever watchful eye of the elite in the balconies, twin mercenaries on either side.

Antonio broke the silence. "What do we do now??" he asked.

I was out of ideas. Margerette had one. "We continue the fight. They can't keep us down forever. We need to continue to recruit."

"And weapons." Roman said. "There will be a day when the police ... the death squads ... they will try and attack us. We need to continue to raise funds to pay for weapons, armor, disguises"

I nodded. It would be more of the same. We would raise funds to go towards the cause. We decided small troublemakers like Noel and Antonio were not doing much, and so Antonio decided to join Margarette in the raids against the factories nearby. We would try to recruit a group of 6 agile people, and then they would go up against the police stations. But first, we needed to get the people. The raids would start May, which gave us 2 months to recruit and buy appropiate weapons and armor.

We drew up all the things we needed: 6 shotguns or AK-47s, depending on the recruits skills, 6 agile recruits, 6 Police disguises, an apartment to rent, and a car.

Taking one last look at our little TV, we turned, and moved back to base. It looked like a longer and longer journey ahead of us. But now we could be called a gang.

[OOC] Any objections to this plan? Feel free to speak and give guidance on this plan for the future. [/OOC]

[digitCruncher]

March 6: The Boys, our little crime squad, has run into a little problem. Our main supply of loot, the oil refinary, has stepped up security after repeated raids.  This leaves really only the chemical factory for us to loot, which has several locked doors to gain entry. Our squad can't enter past two doors, before the conservatives becoming alarmed, and us having to bail out. We need a locksmith.

Thankfully, each of the members is going to have a prodigy. So crime has been stopped for a few days, while we find some good hippies down in the vegan co-op!

March 10: We welcomed two new hippies to the crew. One even had a little bit of security know-how, and both had excellent Agilty.

March 12: And a third new person, this time with incredable security, first aid AND agility! We welcomed Lycus with open arms.

With that, Antonio took over the crime squad, while Margarette decided to move to safer territory: The Meat house. There she would continue to monitor how everyone was going, protect our loot, and fence our equipment. We would be safe, and would not be crippled if the homeless shelter was raided.

In addition, the security measures at the Oil Refinary were lifted, and we took that as an invitation to cause mayhem.

March 17: We welcomed our first musician today. He is out on the streets drumming on empty barrels. He would love a guitar, and I have decided it might be a good idea to let him have it.

This also means Joan has signed up with The Boys. They are getting better and better at digging deeper and deeper into the Oil Refinary. I am sure one of these days we will be able to move the boys wherever, and thier sneaking skills will make it happen.

But we still need guns. We shared out 3 guns, but two of them only have 6 bullets each...

March 18: We have decided to expand one more time. This time, we are going to make a huge street gang, full of people with great street sense ... and probably some martial arts skills. They will take to the streets and spread the liberal message.

March 20: Luis ran into a 13-year old highschool dropout. A smart person, leaving school before the man taught them to be mindless slaves to the machine. If only I had  never gone to highschool, I wonder where I would be >.>

March 22: We recruited the first of the troublemakers: Yanping Proudfoot.

Also, our scouts found out that the cable news station is back up and spreading propaganda again. Brilliant

March 24: Cindy Fox is being bribed, as she has both Martial Arts skills AND street sense.

March 26: Louis King, a Dancer, with martial arts skills, has been recruited, And Maria Gleaves has FINALLY accepted to join, after nearly a week of persuasion and bribery.

March 28: And now Christine Swit joins the Troublemakers!!

March 30: We got front page news today. Apparently, however, Cindy Brox is STILL not joining the LCS.

March 31: Life might get alot more complicated now. The Boys got into trouble with a Non Union worker who refused to stand down. He struck first, hitting Lycus in the body with a chain, and then he was shot dead. Now we have people accused of murder, slightly before when we wanted them to for the plan.

When I heard of this, I looked at the group. They were concerned for thier own safety. They were good thieves, very good at disguising themselves, and very agile. But now we needed a new direction. We needed to train weapons. I said they should go to the crack-house and shoot the place up, but some were concerned that shooting up one of our safehouses might be a bad idea, especially it being the one our hacking and activism groups were based out of. The other option was scary, but worth considering: The Police station.

And there was a third option: To keep doing what we are doing, and shooting whoever gets in our way in the factories. One thing is for sure: We need a proper house, not just the abandoned toy factory we are currently using.

But today had a silver lining. Cindy Fox FINALLY joined.

[OOC] Each of the 'taken' charactors have thier stats sheets at the bottom of the big image below. Here are what each person is doing as of 1st April 2009:



Roman: Hacking Networks. Has already done some cool things. Still doesn't have his gun (I will buy it as soon as I buy a better safehouse). He will probably use Lycus' gun until he is back in action.

Margarette: As ordered, is staying safe in her own little safehouse, in the Meat house. There, she is using her good persuasion skills and black suit to raise funds through donations.

Lycus: Tending to his own wounds He will be out of action for a few days, which sorta sucks, as he is able to walk through locked doors like they aren't there!

Ehndras: Has just returned from being beaten up. Unless the real Ehndras has something to say about it, he is going to cause trouble as well, and probably get beaten up AGAIN

Valeria Myers [Now renamed Jimlad]: Selling art. She is probably the only person in the entire gang (aside from Lionel, who has done NOTHING) who hasn't got a rap sheet.

Alright: Where to train pistol skill, and when, and what would you like your charactors to do?[/OOC]

[squeakyReaper]

Quite a read!  You're a pretty great narrator, keep up the good work.

[Yoink]

Can I be the next crackhead you happen to recruit? Nickname 'em Fingers, and use me as cannon fodder.
A good read, too! I love thinking about the stories that go on behind the game when I'm playing.

[Ehndras]

Hmm, I wouldn't mind going on theft missions rather than causing general trouble. I'm a more hands-on type and I'd prefer to get myself a gun and do something with my time.

If I can get a rifle eventually, or even a pistol, that'd rock.

Ehndras' Orders: For now, how about I go rob an apartment block, sell the loot, buy myself a gun, and then go recruit someone who may be a good inside-man? Preferably a lawyer, teacher, or some such.

(That's my gameplay tactic in my own games for Ehndras, our leader. I get ridiculous loot and sometimes guns from robbing an apartment building, and then use the points to get an inside-man in the courts, the rest of the recruits being those with combat skills, plus a 4-man Stronghold Operations Team with tailoring, hacking, persuasion and writing skills to back us up off of the streets.)

May I also suggest we find someone with prostitution/street-smart skill to net us a ton of cash? Remember to post them at a safehouse where NO ONE else is. They make a BOATLOAD of cash, but tend to get caught a lot when they first start. They may bring a raid or even a siege if they open their mouth, so be wary.

[EuchreJack]

Good job!  Now, we are ready to start affecting the Death Penalty Issue!

Have Margarette recruit three people, if she does not already have three recruits.  Then, transfer the recruits back to the main base (Crackhouse, I believe).  Seems you're short on guns, so give them Chains if you have them, or buy them crowbars and a can of spraypaint.  Then, send them out to the Halls of Ultimate Judgement.  Spraypaint the walls until the alarm is raised, kill any non-police that tries to stop them from fleeing, cry when they die.

Keep attacking the Halls of Ultimate Judgment until it is closed down, High Security, or you don't have three capable liberals.  If Margarette doesn't have three subordinates, recruit up.

When the Halls of Ultimate Judgment open back up, hit 'em again!  Human waves will show the world the folly of the universal death penalty.  Just remember not to launch the raids out of the Meat Plant.

Oh, and you might try making some body armor.  It'll let your assault squads last slightly longer.  Since you'll be using crowbars and chains instead of real weapons, try to get recruits with Strength.  Don't sacrifice good recruits on the raids!  Expendables only.

Finally, if the Suicide Squad manages to down a Security Guard during their escape from the Halls of Ultimate Judgment, give the SMG and ammo to one of your soldiers.  Should help cut down the bodies blocking your way.
