Gang Leader Description
'Yuna', as she is known, cropped up fairly recently. She is exactly what her gang preaches, but is an odd mixture of beauty and body horror. Her face is achingly beautiful to look at, an idealized appearance, almost doll like, perfectly sculpted. The seams, proof of her modification, that run along her face, legs and torso are thin, adding to her appeal rather then taking away while her arms and shoulders are grotesque works of machine. Exposed wiring and hydraulics are shown to the world, tarnished metal sticking out like gapping wounds.. Yuna is both beautiful and hideous at the same time, the duality something the woman seems to quite enjoy, even taking a perverse pleasure in the discomfort it can give.

There are many rumors as to where she comes from. Some say she was a slave, trafficked in one of the many prostitution rings, her body broken and rebuilt so many times that her mind fractured, others whisper that she is some kind of vat-grown experimentation that got out while others say that she is just some kid from the Habs that got lucky. Regardless of the rumors of her origin, the sheer amount of modification Yuna has undergone has made discovering the truth all but impossible as very few parts, if any, are 'original'. ​

[Crocodile]

Gang Name: Chemlords
Gang Focus: Drugs, Muscle

Gang Makeup: Heavily human based but most any race is welcome so long as they obey the rules and embrace the gangs culture of aggressive chemical self-enhancement while forsaking recreational drugs utterly.

Gang Goal: The Chemlords seek to expand their reach and power within the underworld. The power vacuum has created the chance for the gang to start to expand more aggressively in its fields of business. They seek to become the major wholesale distributor of drugs in Arcadia while also swelling their ranks to become even more in demand as enforcers and muscle for hire.

Gang Leader Description: Orlock Ventari or King Orlock to his gang, is the overall leader of the Chemlords. Orlock is a massive man sporting ports and tubing usually pumping a glowing green or red fluid through his frame. His face is hidden by his smart metal gas mask but he favors open, revealing clothing to display his chem enhanced body. Despite being a brutal figure in appearance, Orlock is a highly intelligent man whose chosen to embrace his lifestyle to get the power and influence he hungers for. No one is sure where Orlock came from, but some gang members joke that he was a corporate agent before they burned him in some op against a rival company. Others think he's simply some ambitious gutter scum that's read one too many books on warfare and rulership with delusions of grandeur. In either case, Orlock is respected and obeyed because he generally backs up his plans and methods with results.​

-1	2	1	0

Gang Leader Description:
Amon, to say the least, is eccentric and also mysterious. He's a very reserved person yet commands a lot of respect from his members who would never dare act up in front of him. He is very clean and orderly and expects his members to be the same, or at the very least not act like an uncultured swine in front of him. The others suspect he just has OCD but he would just smile when asked. He is obsessed with monocles. Every shape he would shift would wear an appropriately sized monocle.​

 

[Twist]

Gang Name: Hinky Punks

Gang Focus: Smuggling/ Blackmail
Gang Makeup: Will-o-Wisps, Hitodama's, Puca's, Pixies
Gang Goal: To harbor enough secrets to make them and their distribution empire untouchable


Gang Leader: Gang Leader Name: Will the Smith
Gang Leader Description: Will is the sole reason the Hinky Punks have become more bold and brazen as of late. Though they are undoubtedly dukes of distribution, the fact that their numbers consist of the more "delicate" fae and spirits of the world (Will himself is merely a sentient ball of blueish flame, with the vestiges of a human face), meant they were easily corralled into service for any gang that had the merest ounce of real strength....
Until Will came to it's head during the power vacuum.
Nicknamed "the Smith" William has a talent for technology, especially robotics, a rather fitting homage for the cold and emotionless leader. With their network of illicit and smuggled goods providing ample supplies of nearly everything, "The Smith" has quickly provided rather impressive chrome chassis for his fellow spirits. Powered and controlled with their energies, the Hinky Punks now feel they have the might they need to grab their piece of the pie...

Aoma ΔΠͰͶ
Gang Leader Stats:​

MUSCLE	SMARTS	MAGIC	CYBERNETICS
-1	1	2	0

Gang Leader Description:
A rather unconventional gang leader. Believes in the methods of the late N’yidri, and carries himself with an image unlike the rest of his followers. It's not uncommon to see him roaming the streets without even the conventional robes that most mages dawn. His left hand is robotic, an old rusty model that, nevertheless, still creaks along. He's ashamed of it and hides it with thick leather gloves. Runes carved into it give him an edge in magic.

Aoma was a lowly member of High Society but decided to drop out after seeing how his skills were underappreciated. Since then, he hasn't been killed by laying low, gradually building support and resources. Of course, only a few know his true identity. Those outside of the gang would find only a cocky man who's studied magic, living on a dwindling inheritance.​

Batham Mechanisch

0	1	-1	2

Gang Leader Description:
Born and raised in Arcadia, Batham has seen the highs and lows of the city and its people. When he became an adult the first thing he did was join a small time gang and began to make a name for himself. This would later come back to bite him as others who envied his position would attempt to assassinate him. It was only through sheer luck he managed to survive, losing the majority of his right side to the attacks and having it replaced with his first series of cybernetic enhancements.

Now, after five years of lying in wait, he is back and ready to lead his own gang to control the entirety of the cities technology and cybernetics and show his enemies why they should never have attempted to kill him.

Batham is a cold and calculating human male whose right arm, right leg, much of the right side of his chest, and eyes have been replaced with cybernetics. He stands roughly 6 foot tall and if he has to fight prefers to use pistols and melee weapons, having taken up the preference of looking his enemies in the eyes as he kills them after his own attempted assassination.​

Gang Leader: Eros

Gang Leader Stats:

​	Muscle​	Smarts​	magic​	Cybernetics​
Stats​	0​	2​	1​	-1​

Gang Leader Description:

Time has made Eros jaded and multiplied just how malicious and sinister he can be. An self-centered, greedy, and cruel incubus, Eros has spent the past several centuries learning to manipulate the mortal races and learning how to use their desires to fulfill his own desires. His origins are well-known in Arcadia’s underworld as he built a reputation early on for executing grand schemes but also executing his partners once they served no use.

Eros prides himself on his wit and makes use of magic to impose his will upon the world around him. He has a very strong disdain for cybernetics and those who have been heavily modified as machines have very few desires and are all the more difficult to manipulate because of this.​
