Going to be a gangstar
the (potential) roles The Boss. The one in charge. The one everyone listens to and looks up to. The one who has to make the tough calls when the going gets rough. The Right Hand. The Boss wouldn't be anywhere without you, his most trusted confidant. You know everything there is to know and then some. Take this trust for what it is or abuse it to your own ends. We won't tell. The Hitman. The Boss points and you pull the trigger. It's not up to you to decide who lives and who dies. No one asked you to think. Just shoot, wipe off your gun, and move on to the next one. The Getaway Driver. You think the Boss drives themself? Of course not. That what you're here for. Take people where they need to go, don't ask questions, always turn a blind eye to what goes on the backseat. It's simple. The Tech Guy. You spend most of your time developing cool guns and even cooler gear all while being the voice in the earpiece of someone who's on the go. It sounds like a dream for some, sans the fact that you're working for a crime family. That commits crimes. The Bodyguard. Whether you're assigned to the boss themself or some other important member of the family, your only role is to keep them safe. The Boss's Daughter/Son/Child. The forbidden fruit, entirely off-limits. Regardless of your personal feelings about your crime family, the Boss will kill a man where he stands just for looking at you. Have fun trying to date. The Trophy Wife/Husband/Spouse. Eye candy. The Boss walks in with you on their arm and everyone turns and looks. The Undercover. You're only here to gain information to take this family down. Try not to get caught along the way. The Interrogator — When the Boss needs to extract information, he calls you in. You're an expect at getting people talk. The Grunt. In order to move up the ranks, you need to do whatever needs done, no matter how mundane it is. Load the guns, mop the floors, fix the cars... The Cop. While you're not technically not a member of the family, you've been watching these guys for a while. Your file on these people grows larger by the day. The Witness — You saw something you weren't supposed to see and now you're wrapped up in all of this. The Rival — Romeo and Juliet style rivals, but less love and more murder... Or, more love and less murder? Or murder and love in equal amounts? Wildcard — There are plenty of other roles to consider! The entertainment, the call girls/boys/people, the crime family elder, the new recruit, the doctor, the dirty lawyer... Have fun with it! the (potential) scenarios Shootout/ Murder —Pew-pew. Act Natural — Sure, you're a crime family, but you could at least give the patina of being on the straight and narrow. Host a birthday party, or a gala, or a charity event. Something that normal wealthy families that totally aren't involved in a life of crime do. Get Out — You want out of this life. The death, the misery, the danger... it's not for you. But everyone knows leaving isn't an option. Once you're in, you're in for life. Death In The Family — Someone of significance has died, and everyone's feeling it. Maybe their death solidifies your goal of revenge, or maybe it's close to scaring you straight. Injury — After a crime goes wrong, you're bedridden for a bit until you get your strength back. Between Jobs — Life in the crime world can't all be shoot-outs and heists. Sometimes, you've just got some downtown. What happens behind closed doors on a slow day? Forbidden Love —There are a lot of ways to go with this. The bodyguard crushing on the Boss's child? Undercover cop falls for the Boss's unhappy spouse? Interrogator with a secret spot for the accidental witness? A Job Well Done — After a job goes well, it's time for a celebration! Drinks for everyone! A Failure — Anything that could've gone wrong went wrong. You're lucky to have made it back with your life. Boy, is the Boss going to have some thoughts about this... Kidnapping — Bringing a rival gang member back to your home for information? Ransom? Leverage? Fraud —It takes a few lies to make some money. Fraudulent crimes include fake identities, lying about who you are, lying about past accomplishments, etc. Arson — Burn the evidence. Leave it all behind. Put Out A Hit — Someone wants you dead. Maybe you want someone else dead. The end goal is death either way. A Coup — This Boss is messing up and they're messing up badly. Someone else should be in charge. Someone who knows what they're doing. Someone who deserves it. Someone like you. Wildcard — Think of a scenario that best suits you and have fun with it! |
