Creating new Relations & Mending old With all of the current beef going around the city Crimson built a pretty tight relation with Tsukuyomi more recently men and women from both organizations seemed to be hanging out together more often keeping constant connections with between both crews was a big priority for crimson Knowing both groups are smaller, and not the biggest powers, but together they can make a great team. John calls a meeting with Oni, the leader of Tsukuyomi and goes over stances on the current situation at hand. Both parties agreed, and are on the same page. Belief that their gangs working together can greatly benefit each of them was a big push in the right direction Talk of future plans, banks, stores, and drug transport was tossed around. It was agreed this effort will create a great friendship knowing both gangs have the same morals and follow the same guide lines. After the meeting ended, John received another phone call. from one of his Ex members, and leader now of Street Fighters asking for a quick meet and greet. John gladly said yes, knowing he has always had a respect for Sean, and Fuocco. Both gangs meet and a private location talking about past and current feuds in the city. Old members of Street Fighters, and members of Crimson did not get along due to some petty trash talk from a select few people. Both sides agreed it was petty and realized where the conflict stemmed from, and both sides in recent days have fixed those issues in their own ways. Putting a stop to the conflict that has been had. John a couple of Crimson high command sit and chat with Sean and Fuocco, Discussing possibility of working together in the future on some "Jobs" coming up soon. Both sides come to an agreement we will be having a formal meeting with a meet and greet to get names around between both organizations. Squashing all beef that was had prior, not wasting the utilities they have one each other, rather look forward to the bigger picture. After chatting with Street fighters, John has a stroll up north to Poleto planning to meet with a long time friend, Alecia of Azteca. In this meeting nothing major was discussed, basically going over current stances, Current situations in the city, and to for future meets to make sure Crimson keeps Relations with Azteca's in a good place. Some laughs were had and a few serious words, but the meeting was cut short, when John Received a radio call Clowns were chasing down one of their vehicles. John greatly apologizes to Alecia for having to leave, but this had to be answered. Alecia and her Member were near by when this happened, helping Crimson incase something happened during this. After the situation calmed, and all parties dispersed, John reaches out sending Alecia a text, Thanking her for the efforts herself, Azteca, and LFM have put forward during our time of rebuilding from Conflicts in the city It isnt an east place to survive, here in Los Santos. But John has built a family that are here to push to become something, and not just give up when things seem to be tough.

Family is Back Together One early morning John received a phone call from his brother Danny Expecting to the the normal hello, how are things going conversation since he has flew back to their hometown. John was shocked to head "Hey im at Los Santos Airport and need a ride, Care to pick me up?" Excited to hear that John hops out of bed grabbing his keys and running to the terminal to pick up Danny. After a short wait, Danny comes out the terminal, Carrying nothing but a single book bag over his shoulder. John makes a comment " See your not planning on sticking around too long huh?" Danny turns and responds as he turns closes the door. "All I need is this suit and tie for the time being, checking up on the store front and what not" John chuckles as they pull off from the terminal. They go on a drive discussing and laughing about the old times, all the ups and downs they been through Knowing, Danny at one time was the only person he ever trusted to control things when he wasn't readily available. John Takes Danny to meet the newly rebuilt Crimson and to run with them for the night. Danny had a small meet and they made a plan for the night Danny turns to John and asks for some clothes because he doesnt wanna get his suit dirty John laughs and takes him to the clothing store. they reach out to a group they have recently became closer to *** to get a job done for some money rolling in Everyone links up and they put the plan on the table, we are gonna hit the bank for big dollars rolling in there isnt money left in petty crime time to turn it up a notch Everyone links up setting the teams up for the job and to make their move. A plan is put on the table who will be doing what to make is move as smooth as possible with 0 mistakes. Everyone runs in as planned armed, and loaded ready to go within what felt minutes everyone was in the safe room clearing out all cash and lock boxes. There was an alarm tripped and a spotter called, PD was coming. Just as fast as we went in everyone cleared. Leaving the bank dry of every penny. Everyone links up gets the cash cleared. John looks at the man who helped launder the cash *** ****** and says, " I want a Larger order put in" A bout an hour rolls by, and John receives a phone call from one of his members "I received word, The Cartel will be having our shipment dropped at the location within an hour" John gets the men together and they load up and go to the drop a spot. 7 Large crates loaded with guns and ammo some of the men meet up at the spot to disperse weapons and ammo between the group. After evreyone picked up their orders, John and the crew meet up north to relax and blow off some steam Danny hops out of the car and looks to john saying "Hey, im kinda liking being back in white, and I am the better looking Corsetti in these colors. I think I'm gonna be here to stay this time" John gets excited and his only response is " I have been hoping you would say that" Danny back in the picture helping John and the rest of his high command helping build the family That they once had before The brothers are finally reunited helping continue the growth of Crimson and rebuild their family Danny John and the rest of high command sit and meet Danny going over new members and first sight thoughts going over potential and how we can build off of it. a Few members were brought up specifically getting brought up, people that reminded him of what we had in our old crew. Moves will be made, and we will continue to grow, we aren't gonna give up and we will push for everything we want

Im Not Dead Yet John took time time away since Crimson Disbanded, Roaming around worrying about himself trying to figure out his next move in the city of Los Santos. Hopping from group to group seeing where he feels the family he once had and misses. until he eventually just starts running alone for a little while. Until one day, his phone rings from an old friend Tony Romano they meet up and chat talking about old times getting a laugh from some of the stories But one thing they didn't laugh about and agreed on, they both missed the feeling of family John and Tony agreed, they need to come back with something and build this family they both missed. So John makes a call, getting some of the old boys together for a meeting. They all agree they should rebuild what they once had A couple of weeks go by, a few moves were made with how they want things ran. and the move was made the rebuild was starting now, and they will do everything they can to prosper. and day by day word of the rebuild got around Alot of people questioning their move and the next plan for the Crimson Syndicate So John called a meeting with some of the crew to have with FSO, and La Familia faces were exchanged, plans were tossed around, and terms were agreed on with survival in Los Santos survival in Los Santos Alot of things changing alot of new faces, John looks back at his new crew building the family vibe they once had. This family isnt done until we are dead and gone. john tells himself he would rather be carried in a casket by 6, then let his family be ruined.

looking good

I would like to thank Everyone that's been on this journey with us, and supported this group from the beginning. But Conflict consistently has taken its tole on the group. We have officially disband at this point in time. Again thanks again for everyone in ECRP for the fun and RP we have had with you as a group

Meetings And War Over the last few weeks The war between the Crimson Syndicate and Murder Block has been raging on With no clear answer to Why the war was declared As to be expected from Ex WCA members, Assuming the hits were because Balla Roots. We stood our ground and Took these fights Making sure to get our point across that we aren't as weak as we seem The war went on, winning battles, and losing some also Not everyone is perfect. Then I get a call, a meeting is wanted to be had between Crimson and Murda Supervised by the council This meeting was to Discuss the actual reason for war, and see what the end goal is for Murda Block During this discussion a lot was said, but It went nowhere the only way to end is when one gang is left standing, so John and his men stood strong Lets do this then, we WILL NOT back down to the people who once buried us as Ballas https://streamable.com/pys1yb# After Multiple gun fights, we still could not receive any answers needed to why they wanted us gone So we came up with an idea. Kidnap, Torture, Get information We started by shaving her head, and slowly pulling out finger nails one by one and doing this led to some of the best information we could have gotten on top of her stating "we are hitting you because you side with the council" After this it was left to a coin flip how she was killed Heads for baseball bat, to make sure she can feel every single ounce of pain as she was killed Tails, Quick easy and silent with a silenced .50 execution style Lucky for her it landed tails, John and his men were disappointed she wouldn't be let off so easy with a pistol but they got the information they wanted now back to work.

The Meeting John was cruising around the city when he received a call from a good friend during this talk he was told they wanted to setup a meeting due to current events and the future in the city John agreed and said call him when your all ready a couple hours pass by. John receives a Text from Jerzy the leader of Void Saying when and where. John gets all of his men to a specific location where both sides meet some exchanging names, and then discussion of the current issue at hand. both sides agree, working together will be one thing we can use to our advantage both sides sit and explain how this future working together can work out for the best discussing what can be done to make sure we both survive the war ground known as Los Santos. together they can work together as 1, making sure both sides survive. each side has utility the can benefit the other, so not working together would damage the plan coming in the future months.

Never Forget your Roots John and all this men had a plan, finely tuned and ready to go A heist that will help them make BIG money But prior to the job John got caught up with Prior charges and ended up spending some time in Jail. During this he had a lot of time to sit and think about the past Where he came from and how he became the leader he is today As soon as john got out, he made his way to the cemetery Looking for one Stone specifically John stands there in silence as he asks himself how things are being ran and how the path of the gang is going how they are going to manage when things are getting tough here and there. but still looking up, and keeping positivity within the gang. Asking for reassurance from his good friend. Tyone Bell John sits there, then his phone goes off. His men asking him where he is and how its going If he is ok and when did he get out. it clicks, he isn't worried about his members. Hes worried about himself He has the power behind him ready to conquer and prosper in the city of Los Santos Members that have been with John as they watched other Ballas get burried People that will ALWAYS back his call and be there supporting where the gang is going John makes a call, Getting all Members in the city to meet him at HQ to have a meeting in this meeting, John makes sure to give ALL members a pat on the back who have been there the work they are putting in, and its because of them they are in this position. He also lays down some new rules on the gang, new plans for the city, ready to accomplish anything and everything John takes a breath, feeling he is doing everything right. Ready to become something The Crimson Syndicate is building their foot print in the city.

Sometimes, you have to Joke John flew into the city one day with one plan in mind Members who stood out deserve to be moved up from recruit John looked at all of his members, thoroughly Deciding who has been loyal, And who has showed him who is willing to put in for the gang. Some members were off working on things on the side for the gang, so he calls a meeting to who is free and aren't handling business. in this meeting John had a lot of his men line up in front of him a Majority of the recruits and his higher ups, explaining how they have been preforming and how he likes what they are doing. then John pulled up one member, Kevin John had him stand in front of the group. But to test him in a stressful situation and to have a little prank on him for his rank up John drew his gun, telling him to get on his knees, that he knows everything And now is the time to speak up. Kevin, with panic in his voice "I swear I did nothing, I promise you guys are family" John looks in his eyes and asks him "think Very hard why do you think you deserve to be here Representing the Crimson Syndicate?" Kevin looks at john with panic in his voice "I promise I would never do anything to hurt the family. I will stand for this until I cant stand anymore" John chuckles, throwing Kevin the Soldier mask for raking up "Then how do you explain this" the sigh of relief From Kevin, the chuckles from the rest of the crew after realizing we were testing him. Kevin stood up with pride, holding the new mask putting it on. "Once your in your in, only way out is a body bag. your family now Kevin"

The Shipment John was up at bank grabbing some money shooting jokes back and for with a couple of his men one day when a masked gentleman pulled up he went straight to john " no more purple? where is the Ballas?" John turned and looked confused, asking who he was only getting a response "An old friend, Hop on and come with me" John trusting his judgment he hopped on the bike and went for a ride to a hidden location. when they got to the location the man hopped off the bike with john Stating "this is the last time we seen eachother." then it clicks, the anonymous messages, the word that a dead man wants to speak to me all came together. " Is that you?" John gets a nod back in response They spoke for a little bit talking about each others future in the city How the Crimson Syndicate came to play. Then the man asked before parting ways. "John, do you and your boys need any Equipment?" Johns response was fast "yes lets make this happen." …….. A few days passed, John and his crew were hanging out after making some money then he received a call, I got the shipment that you wanted here ready to go John Runs to the bank grabbing all the cash he needed. flying out to a remote location Jay at his side he meets the man who shall not be named a large duffle bag at his side, and John with a huge envelope with all the money John hands the money over and grabs the bag after the man drops it down he searches through it checking everything out Trusting the man, but still runs through everything, tossing guns and ammo back and forth All was accounted for. The deal was done, John reached out they shook hands, "We will be reaching out again for more. Lets stay in touch" The man nods and they part ways from the location John calls over the radio, he needs men to come help escort him just incase something happens. John and Jay hop into the Rebla, all of the crimsons in the area link up and escort them back to the safe house

Standing Strong After the meeting just days before, calling for war. John wakes up to a missed call. Eyes Barely open he called them back To his surprise it was the leader of the Shelby's asking he had their money John laughs at him saying "how about you ask your members we burried, and you can fuck yourself for 500,000" The response he got back was surprising, the Shelby's were asking for yet another meeting so he accepts, representing his crew John shows up for the meeting. John shows up by himself, telling his men to back off and expect an ambush The Shelby approaches him asking for the hits to stop, put an end to this war. John laughs but respectfully accepts his offers knowing he lost no men during this so called fight but the Shelby's were against the wall, he heard it in their voice. John calls all of his men back, Warning the shelbys "If you lay a single finger on any of my men one more time I Promise we will be digging graves for each one of you" At this time the war is over, But The crimsons didn't back down, we stood our ground They wanted us gone from the city, and look who is still here. John will always keep this in the back of his mind. Respecting their decision but to stop the war and step back John can now take a breath and focus once again on worrying about his crew building Assets.

This Means War John woke up one day rolled out of bed, hopping into his comet and rolling to the spot they were thinking of calling an HQ He ran into a couple of shelbys there who also wanted the same spot for business back home they "claimed" so its easier for them to send goods back home and import. John was ok with this and agreed he wanted a better place to claim. Since he wasn't much of a water person anyways, they search around SO john and crew loaded up looking for a new spot. a little more discrete and not so close to the city. And they found it. Prime real-estate, a nice place they can all call home so John then woke up one day was planning on having a meeting with the leader of the so called shelbys. but he received a text. from him stating, "We want this place, its ours, so we suggest you better back off" Unsure of why this was sent, john feeling majorly disrespected Called a meeting with this guy who claims hes the leader. During this meeting the shelbys felt threatened enough to have to call the Explosion family in to help fight their war. they Demand 500,000 payment to each group. john laughs and agrees to whatever they stated, knowing he wont pay them a single dime. standing up for what he build, the Explosion, and Shelbys state they want us just out of the city But we are not leaving. We will take the time they claim before They start war. but little do they know its only just begun

Change Is Coming John woke up to his final days locked up He rolled out of his cot and walked out side of his cell taking a look around. While minding his own business, someone walked up that he didn't recognize But they knew who he was. The guy walked up asking if John has heard the news of what's going on outside of these cement walls. apparently a war has begun, and with a fear of it turning to something bigger Fear of it turning the city of Los Santos, into the World War 3 This war can change how things are ran, and whos in charge So as soon as John got out he called a meeting calling everyone to a low key construction site where they cant be seen John brings up the possibility of this turning into something bigger then just a war between 2 gangs of the city. Everyone talking and discussing options to join if that is the case. Everyone leaning the same direction and an agreement is made. John would like to discuss the view and opinion on this war from the Azteca's prior to making a decision on weather they fully commit to the war. so the pile up into a couple of Rebla's, a bike, and 2 sultan RS's On the way John Decided he needed a couple dollars after just being released and the city emptied his bank accounts while he was in lock up. So the Crimson Syndicate boys stop at a grocery store on the way run in and empty the cash register. After filling their pockets they make their stop in Poleto at the Azteca Church For a quick meet and meet n' greet, where they stand as neutrality, and both sides views on the war. A lot was discussed during this meeting Both sides described mutual respect for each other and no hostility A lot of the friendships carried over from Ballas Then joking around talking about the past times with Ballas. Then finally the discussion of everyone stances on the war. John, Danny, and Josh, have a meeting in the church high command only with Carlos, Alicia, and El Cheapo Ideas and options are discussed, but both sides keep it to minimal with no final plans brought up. until a final decision is made on what moves would be. The movement that can go with this war can be a major change in how things are in this city John has his mind made up, he knows his moves. Now the question is, When do we Announce it?

im having an issue very similar, to where it wont even let me add imagur links to put pictures in forum posts. is there a way I can delete some old pictures I added previously? I says manage old attachments to add, but I cant manage I can only see the list I have

Excited to see more content, some good RP with the whole group last night.

The name The Crimson Syndicate rattles the spines of law enforcement agencies, civilians, and gangs around the globe. Why may you ask? Because this Elite group has partaken in many of the worlds most brutal and daring of crimes ever to be seen by humanity. They have been declared infamous worldwide, or have they? A decently sized city named Los Santos is their next and final target. Will they fight tooth and nail over the town? Will the city live in peace and harmony with the renown Syndicate under their noses while their notorious crimes still take place? Or maybe, just maybe, this is where the Crimsons fall. It is up to you, citizens of Los Santos to decide their fate. Becoming a part of the Crimson Syndicate is something that many have attempted on numerous occasions. However, only a select few have ever surpassed and succeeded the group's trials. The reason behind this is due to the fact that many strive for one thing and one thing only...their greed for wealth. Passion of a Crimson must root from the thought of becoming something bigger, something...more. Upon the downfall of the gang, "The Ballas" a small portion of the groups most fabled and skilled members bunker up in a secured building for the night. During our time of oppression we fled the city. A few of us have always been close and continued to stay close. We returned to our roots to start again. We did a few petty crimes here and there but we always kept the bigger picture in mind. We discussed past events in which they had all taken part in, when someone spoke up. It was John Corsetti. After the Ballas war, we were all left in the ashes wondering what to do. Some stayed curled up waiting for their fate, while we took the foundation of what was left to make something new. This is where we started. As we pulled each other from the ashes we stumbled upon our factory. We claimed the factory as ours, we all talked and more people showed up. That’s when we knew what we wanted to do. First thing we did was get into clothing. We agreed on white and black street clothes with a few specific masks. With our core group we all own tuner cars. Currently we are driving Elegy Retros and Sultan RS’s. As a group we want our members to have a nice car and some kind of motorcycle. During our time in the city we actively break the law. We rob, we steal, and we chop. We do all we can to make our money, but we still leave the honest working man alone no matter how bad the cash is needed. Current Situation - As a group, the Crimson Syndicate are in a stage of building their footprint in the city. We are starting with a small hand of Loyal, respected, and trust worthy people while we build up from what we lost during our war as Ballas .We are in the process of making money and laying low while still being noticed around. Secrets don't last long in the city of Los Santos Future Plans - As the Crimson Syndicate we want to be able recruit and get good numbers of people into the family, trusted, loyal, and respectable is key to be apart of us. Every one member will have the same goal in mind and accomplish it as a whole. We plan to be known and seen as a strength and powerhouse of the city some time down the road, fighting and surviving amongst the biggest and best around. Short Term Goals - 1) Build a structure and base 2) Establish a base of Operations (HQ) 3) Gain respect from gangs in the street of Los Santos and be noticed 4) get a steady income saved for gang use 5) get gun contacts for Importation of weapons Long Term Goals - 1) Get recognized by the cartel 2) Become an official gang amongst the strongest in Los Santos 3) Own a warehouse/property we can call our own Respect must be shown at all times Loyalty to our fellow members and allies at all times Honesty to all members and High Command regardless of the situation

New Recruits And The Example Rebuilding the Ballas is one goal John has his sights set on Wanting all to know Ballas ARE NOT WEAK And during this intake process he always has a meeting between all Young Ballas to break down the code and how to live by it. So he called the new Recruits and setup this meeting with Tyrone and the Young Ballas. But plans took an instant turn for the worse. a few of the new recruits were already posted waiting for Johns arrival As he was rolling to the block Grove ST. he heard a lot of commotion over the Radio when trying to park finding out soon, a recruit (Young Balla) was not following what was set in his place. (follow the code or leave in a body bag) The recruit was caught Threatening and trying to fight the council hurting the relations that the Ballas wanted to rebuild and hold. once this word got to the crew, John made it known He was going to set an example to all other Young Ballas Follow the code or this is what happens. John took his mask off and looked him in the eyes, reassuring him he wasn't family anymore John made sure this was the last face he seen as the Young Balla took his final breaths all Young Ballas were there to see how its handled Giving each of them one chance to step away or be family. In this meeting he made sure they all understood what happens when code is broken every member standing in the circle stood strong OUR BLOOD RUNS PURPLE

find IC can chat there

The Split and Rebirth John Corsetti One morning John woke up and was rolling out of bed, 14 missed texted messages and 7 missed calles as he opened his eyes to check his phone. the first voicemail he listened to he hard panic, "I don't know whats going on, I don't know where anyone is, but we Need you now" hearing that John jumped out of bed, threw in his purple and ran to meet the group, or what was to be found the last of the group that was in the city at this time. John ran out of the house, and took a drive pounding his head what the hell was going on. he hits up the grove, the Balla Known Territory, and its empty. John Reached down Grabbing his phone shooting a call out to Eric, Trey, and Tyrone Receiving no answer. At this point John is really confused. He takes a run up to the bank to grab his salary, and there is an ocean of Ballas and Recruits sitting in the ally down the block. he slams on is Brakes and whips his car around hoping to find out whats happening. and as he pulls up, the whole crew runs up all yelling at once, with worry and confusion. The Ballas Were Gone...….. John being the Last standing High rank in the city as this happened made an executive call to keep everyone else safe. He told the remaining members "Drop your colors to keep safe while I figure this out" He made the only call he knew he could to the Triads. During this chat he discussed what was happening, and trying to get some more news. All he could take in during this meeting, Ballas are dead, and blood will continue to fall on the street until we weren't around. Finding Family At this point John knew the only way to stay safe, and keep everyone who was left together was to build something of their own. This is when the Hoover Crips were born John went with and had a meeting with the Triads discussing the move to the newly formed hoover crips In this meeting he discussed the new goal and movement with the group he had planned Shooting for big things, wanting to keep relationships built in the past and proving they could fill the shoes the Ballas were once known for. It was a week or so and at this point John started realizing how hard it was to stay happy with these changes. This was a tough time in his life, trying to build a family like he once had with the Ballas. It was something he knew he never wanted to give up, but he felt to have had no choice. A short run, tough fought, John put all off the effort he had into building something he once had. While he was determined to try and make something work, he felt it would never be the same. After about a week of trying to get things in order he was hitting a breaking point. Between having uncontrollable members, from the 2nd in charge making calls completely against his morals. Killing a reputation he was aiming to build, and destroying all goals once planned John began arguing with himself about what his next move will be with the gang then one morning John Woke up, rolled over, no texts no calls on his phone, he reached over to grab his new found Orange shirt he sat and held it in his hands for what felt like and hour he looked up into the mirror then tossed it to the side, realizing this wasn't what turning to be what he was searching for. John was in a spot where he didn't know where he wanted to be He decided he plan rolling alone until he found what he was missing from his past with the ballas. Old Friends/Rebirth Some time flew by, John didn't know what to do searching for something once missed. Until one day John was up at the bank grabbing his salary from fishing and he hears a voice in the distance "Yo John" he turns, and to disbelief Eric was shouting from down the block, so he turns to see what's going on Him and Eric had a little bit of a chat discussing what was going on and who he was with now. As John went to ask where is the rest of the crew, Tyrone pulls around the corner. John, Tyrone an Eric had a sit down, talking old times, and how things were before. Then all 3 agree. WE CAN NOT LET THE BALLAS DIE. This felt like a turning point in Johns life, This is what he was searching for John turned around and walked to his car Throwing his shirt to the ground knowing he ALWAYS kept a spare shirt in the trunk. He moves a couple things around, and there it is. he grabs the shirt and looks up and tosses his REAL COLORS back on Being the last higher ups Left in The city, John, Eric, and Tyrone go to have a meeting. with a couple of Trusted members left in the city everyone goes and heads to Johns house and discuss future plans because Ballas Don't Die, We Adapt After the meeting everyone at the house runs to change into whatever purple they have stored we are determined to show the power we once had in this city. John sits and plans to meet up with everyone after they changed colors as he sat and gathered his thoughts he made a plan of attack EVERYONE was against the ballas. the Council wanted us gone. but we are not stepping down and are going to show we are not affraid John looks over at his closet, and stands up to prepare for the fight of his life he throws his pistol in his belt, and tosses his shotgun over his shoulder He is ready for this fight, and is never going to back down with his brothers next to him.

This is one good storyline. Always excited to see posts in this thread
