@superpapershark

Here we are! Ok, so here's a brief synopsis of my clan (or at least what I have so far because I'm still building on the lore).

It all centers around a gang called the Nightwalkers which is made up of members from three huge corporate black market families: The Hong Group, The Yang Group, and The Maebara Group.
The Hong Group is the most influencial out of all of them, however The Maebara Group technically has personal charge over the Nightwalkers because the formal boss of the gang is also the head of the Maebara family so it gives them the largest claim.
In order to be apart of the gang, you must either be adopted, hired, or born into one of the three distinct families. You don't have to be direct lineage from the main clan - you can be born into one of the servent lines or butler families that serve one of the three main groups.
Their territory extends over a good portion of the city in my AU and some other clans also occupy the area but they pay taxes to the gang for being allowed to reside in the area.
Lots of the people in my lair mostly do odd jobs that you would find in a city to earn money for themselves. The families are the only thing really linking everyone together as most of them just do work to gather funds for the gang. For example, I have a haircutter and tattoo artist in my clan who own run-down shops in the business district. However, the haircutter is a b*stard child from the Hong Group and the tattoo shop owner is part of the Maebara group and doubles as a spy of sorts as he gets many clients who come in and out of his shop.
The current heads of each group consist of Machii (Maebara), Riina (Yang), and Morgan (Hong). Machii has an older brother who should've inherited the position, however he has terrible PTSD and mental episodes so he is being kept away from the crime syndicate business. Riina is actually a member I want to try and elaborate on since I barely have any backstory for him. Morgan not only heads the Hong, he is Machii's personal bodyguard. He also has two brothers; Jun who is his pure brother and Altair who is their half-brother (the illegitimate child that's a haricutter). I'm sorry if this is a lot to take in - I'll post about the dragons further down at the bottom.
There are a couple of 'rogues' in the gang's territory as well and they are only allowed in because they don't particularly disturb the gang's business nor take away their profits. The two rogues (as of right now) are Trinity and Morpheus. No one knows their real names, but both earned nicknames from the Matrix because of their presence.

Ok here are a couple of dragons that I would love to use in this RP - there are more in my clan and feel free to ask about them if you don't see anyone here! Feel free to state which ones you'd prefer or would like to work with since I need to make backstories and relations for most of them. Also I apologize for the lack of apparel on some since my lair is still under construction. I'm not going to elaborate on them too much down here, so if you'd like more information on someone just ask :)

Riina | Model | Head of the Yang Group

Yoosung | Bar Owner | Maebara Group (Machii's Cousin)

@Tsukii (I just subscribed to the post, so we shouldn't need to ping anymore :) ) It sounds amazing so far :OO I had to stop reading through to write this up (and dressing dragons is hard. I feel your pain) To meld our clans mine will: [LIST] [*] Still be centered around their little ocean tourist town. The reputation is pristine, the visitors high-class, and the secrets remain well-buried. Through the RP, we can have dragons stay/visit/leave from here. [*] The brothel... isn't actually 'connected' to the Grand Hotel. It's run by Sero, but while the resort is sea air and sun-bathing, the brothel is smoke, dim lights, and the promise of something dangerous in a pretty package. The clientele rarely overlaps, and since Sero rarely interacts with hotel visitors, customers are blissfully unaware. [*] Since most of my dragons don't have much lore yet, I've written some of the more relevant dragons here. [*] The rule of 'touch an employee without consent and get shredded' is in place. [*] Sero pays the Nightwalkers with treasure or information for the tax, whatever is on-hand at the time. If she's short, she'll try to bargain. [*] Her brothel is a bar as well as a hotel. The nightwalkers could use it as a place to put important guests or as a general 'hangout' for lower employees. Anything goes!

Whoops sorry it took so long for me to respond! I'm having to somewhat restart an RP group and it's been taking forever =v=;;
The plotline idea sounds great! We could do mysteries and infiltrations and personal interactions (gosh, I'm excited lmao) !

For this RP, I will probably use Machii, Theo, Riina, and Morgan since they are the respective heads - but I may add in the others too somewhere along the way.

Also, if you see anyone (minus Theo, Machii, and Vincent) that'd you like to ship someone with, feel free!

No problem!

Lots of mysteries. Murder! Betrayal! (Probably not but i'm super excited too!)

Is Theo a head of the Hong Family with Morgan? Or is he just such an awesome surgeon that he's relevant as a significant leader?

Having the leaders sounds good! Anyone relevant to the scene can jump in, as far as I'm concerned.

I do love shipping characters, but I don't want to force square pegs into round holes. Lets talk about the plot and our characters, test the waters and if our characters have chemistry we can go for it! That being said...

....a large part of me wants Emmy just to have this giant, unreasonable crush on Trinity? Trinity has probably never been inside the brothel, maybe they ran into each other once at the grocery store or something and Emmy dropped everything with 'that is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life'. I just want that to have happened at some point, even if it is never relevant.

ohh thAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL ! Yes, please have a crush on my poor daughter - she is v shy and also a bit awkward but her laugh is basically the best thing ever

If you click on her, I have a bio set up that has a lot more information than I gave if you wanna look there.

Haha he's just an awesome surgeon. You know those old doctors that do house calls and then usually end up sticking with the family because they are so familiar with eachother? That's basically Theo's role and he is just important to them (also he's basically my favorite child of the group and I've had him as an OC for god knows how long so I just wanted some quality RP time haha). Jun actually Co-heads the Hong family with Morgan since they are brothers.

And yes yes of course, I'm the exact same way with pairing. Just wanted to see if anyone caught your eye :>

I did read that over! I just assumed that Emmy would come off as 'clingy' so I didn't want to risk suggesting something that was doomed for failure.

oooH That makes sense. ((I have had characters like that I feel you)) So that he gets quality RP-time, we could do something where dragons are getting murdered, and he can serve as the forensic examiner?

oh gosh don't take those "like/dislike" sections too seriously - they were just a quirky bit I added at the end to fill up their profiles c:

Sounds good to me! Theo would probably be around a lot anyway because he is fairly close to Machii as well since he treats his psychotic elder brother

Any ideas for how we should start this off :0 ?

Oh ok!

Very nice!

I think we should establish a few thingamabobs to start? Like:

- do you have any ships you want to put on the table? I'm open to anything. :>

- how long has Sero's brothel been open in town, and what is the mafia's relationship with her / her staff?

- who do we want to kill? / who should be the bad guys? I'm more than happy to supply my lore-less dragons, or we could always open up the scrying workshop and make some cool dudes.

like you said I think waiting for interactions might work best in terms of shipping except maybe trinity and emmy :>

honestly, any time period is good - maybe we could start at the very beginning when she wants to set it up and has to talk to the gang about it? that would be kinda cool to flush out :D
usually when a new business wants to move in, machii keeps it a "purely business relationship" but my other members tend to get super involved with them, make friends, date people, use the services etc.

anyone works for being killed off except the dragons we use! lore-less dragons or scryed ones are fine with me either way c:

Got it! :>

I think that would be awesome! Yeah. Maybe Sero has just bought the property and everyone is still fixing it up? Sero is also super-business it would be good for the other members to interact. :D

Awesome! I was thinking the bads could be a rival / upstart mafia gang? We could share in controlling them.

Since we're starting at the very beginning, we can start anytime! this planning and stuff can just be ooc.
