Rage. Posted July 13, 2024 Report Posted July 13, 2024 (edited) Only The Family OTF Backstory: Only The Family was created in 2010 by a Chicago rapper and O'Block native Durk Banks, professionally known as Lil Durk. OTF was initially meant to be a rap collective where new and upcoming artists collaborated and shared their ideas. They would promote each other's music helping eachother grow. After some time, the group found themselves housing members of the notorious Chicago street gang Black Disciples. Eventually OTF became a proud branch of BD. In early 2022 BD leaders in Chicago made the decision to expand their business operations outside of Chicago under their newly found branch name, Only The Family. They searched over many cities and ultimately decided to attempt to expand to a city in which they knew would be risky and if done wrong could cost their entire organization thousands of dollars as well as hundreds of lives, but would pay off great rewards if done successfully. The decision was final. OTF took the business opportunity and expanded into Los Santos. After about 2 years of stable business within the drug scene of Los Santos, OTF was dominating the ecstasy game. Hundreds of pounds of ecstasy were being exported from Los Santos daily. Unfortunately this came with some problems. Christopher, the founder of BD’s Only The Family branch in Los Santos, has made enemies with the amount of traffic he was producing. On one fateful day, Christopher was caught in a gruesome drive-by which resulted in his death. OTF’s 2nd in command, Nicholas Valentine, stepped up to the plate and promised his brother Chris to continue the Los Santos operations and continue OTF’s legacy. About Us: Only the family came to Los Santos to expand their illegal business operations. They had many plans but their business focus lies within manufacturing and pushing narcotics to clients in and out of their community as well as stealing and dismantling vehicles for parts. OTF seeks to protect and maintain the hood at all costs and will do anything to assure their families eat Only the family is built on two core values, family and respect. Every member of the family holds each value near to themselves. OTF and its members will die for their brothers and sisters and the respect their organization commands. The color OTF chooses to wear is red honoring those who have bled before them leading them to where they are today. Members of the family can be seen sporting various types of clothes but mostly streetwear. On the southside of Los Santos in Jamestown you'll find the projects littered with red clothing, sports cars, and bikes of those who claim OTF. Those who enter the turf unwelcomed will be dealt with and handled appropriately. Ranking: Kingpin The head of the organization. Oversees all operations and has the final say within the group Right Hand Trusted with the ability to oversee the gang in the absence of the Kingpin Shot Calla Meant to assure all day-to-day operations run smoothly and calling the shots in battle Corner King Trusted to assist the High Command with their duties OG Trusted members of the family who have shown loyalty time and time again Enforcer Members who have shown their dedication and are capable of keeping the lower ranks in check Stepper Respected and trusted members of the family, close to becoming trial command Shooter Senior Members who are skilled with firearms and often tasked with carrying out violent or high-risk tasks Hustler Members who are responsible for generating income for the gang, often through illegal activities like drug dealing or theft Pusher Members who are primarily involved in the distribution of drugs on the streets Thug The backbone members of the group.

Tacoface173 Posted July 20, 2024 Report Posted July 20, 2024 Chopping Chronicles Pondering, J Diddy and his fellow members gathered on the block, engaging in their usual conversations. They found themselves at a crossroads, unsure of their next move. That was until Nicholas pulled up in his car, bringing unexpected news. He informed the group that Lost MC had given them the green light to take over the garbage dealer’s operations. With a clear objective in mind, they devised a plan. Their mission was to locate vehicles, dismantle them, and sell the parts to the dealer within the garbage. Johmarcus sprang into action, swiftly gathering his tools and weapons. He loaded his Benson with crates and essential equipment, then sped off towards Mount Chiliad. As he arrived at the designated meeting spot, he found the family already waiting outside the planned location. However, they encountered a few people occupying the area. Without hesitation, they cleared the spot, ensuring it was secure for their operation. Once the area was secured, the family started their work. Members fed cars into the production line, quickly dismantling the vehicles. They sorted and packed the parts into crates, as well as the trunk of the Benson. The operation ran smoothly, with a constant stream of vehicles being processed and parts being prepared for their next phase, selling and fulfilling their turfs. The family from Mount Chiliad, their trunks filled with vehicle parts. They made their way down to the garbage dealer, eager to start selling their haul. Upon arrival, they swiftly unloaded the trunks and began the selling process. Their efficiency and organization allowed them to quickly meet the dealer's demands, ensuring a smooth transaction. After satisfying the immediate needs of the garbage dealer, the family loaded the remaining parts back into their vehicles. Then moved onto other dealers who were also in need of these valuable parts, ensuring that none of their hard work went to waste. 8 Quote
Kon Posted July 26, 2024 Report Posted July 26, 2024 (edited) After a massive fight against the combined force of PD, SD and DOC in red parking, which saw 11 confirmed deaths on the side of LEOs, OTF had been trying their best to lay low. The fight was considered a success as the members being chased were able to evade and keep the expensive weaponry and gear they had on them, and only one member of OTF was injured during the firefight. Though he is serving a hefty sentence in DOC, that was only the start of the repercussions. The gang suppression was suffocating; any of us caught in red were pulled over, pulled out, and searched. It made daily tasks almost impossible, and it slowed down drug production as transporting products became increasingly risky. The cost of operations quickly rose above the amount we were bringing in. Every day, along with the binds, a color was given. White, yellow, pink, and purple. But it only helped us deflect some of the heat for a single day. Another side effect of this was that a lot of people were starting to think that OTF were all in hiding or scared of other gangs, which just wasn't the case at all. We were being hit both monertarily and reputationally. A week ago, Kyro made his way to one of our warehouses and found the doors all busted. A warrant was blowing in the wind, loosely attached with some blue tape. Not only was that warehouse raided, but so was another, both during the same night. And today? Our meat shop.

Ve1ns Posted July 31, 2024 Report Posted July 31, 2024 (edited) Anakin stood at the gate of the jail, inhaling the fresh air of freedom for the first time in months. But his moment of peace was short-lived. As soon as he stepped out, the Shadows gang ambushed him. They grabbed him roughly, shoving him into a blacked-out SUV, and sped off to a remote warehouse on the outskirts of town. Inside the grimy, dimly lit basement of the warehouse, Anakin was forced into a chair. The Shadows began shaving his head, mocking him as they did. They believed he had snitched on them, despite his reputation as a solid and respected member of O'Block. Anakin endured the pain and humiliation in silence, his mind already planning his comeback. When they finally released him, bruised but unbroken, he made his way back to O'Block. The moment his homies saw him, they knew something serious had gone down. Word spread quickly among the OTF members. Anakin's boys and other OTF Gs started gearing up, their eyes cold with the promise of revenge. They rolled out, a convoy of cars filled with hardened faces, each member eager to teach the Shadows a lesson. They scoured the streets until they found Nina Blake, a core member of the Shadows. Nina tried to flee, but the OTF young Gs were too fast. They nabbed her and took her to the Vinewood Bowl, where all the OTF members had gathered. Under the harsh lights of the Bowl, surrounded by jeering faces, Nina was shoved to her knees. They shaved her head, recording every moment, making sure the world saw the price of crossing OTF. Tears streamed down Nina's face as she realized the depth of her mistake. Anakin stepped forward, his eyes burning with fury. "All of your members will pay for what you did to me," he snarled, his voice echoing in the still night. Then he turned to his crew. "Leave this bitch. We got more Shadows to hunt." They left Nina sobbing in the middle of the Bowl and continued their search. Dominic, one of the sharpest OTF members, spotted a Shadows Bifta near Burgershot. He saw it pick up one of the Shadows members and followed it discreetly, calling his crew to update them. The Bifta headed towards the Los Santos Airport area. Dominic remembered the Shadows' graffiti tags around an abandoned building near the airport. He knew they had to be gathering there. He called his crew, urgency in his voice. "Yo, I found these bitches. Pull up NOW!" Anakin and the rest of the armed OTF members swarmed the location. They caught the Shadows off guard, forcing them to their knees. The OTF crew began shaving their heads, mocking them mercilessly. One of the Shadows tried to act tough, spitting out, "Fuck you, Anakin, you ain't shi-" Before he could finish, Anakin pulled out his gun and blasted the man in the face. The silence that followed was thick with fear. The remaining Shadows were visibly trembling. "WHICH ONE OF YOU HOES WANT TO BE A GANGSTER NOW?" Anakin shouted, taking a picture of the humiliated Shadows, their heads shaved, kneeling in the dirt. The image would serve as a stark reminder: you do not fuck with OTF. The message was clear. The streets would remember this night, and the Shadows would think twice before crossing Anakin and his crew again. [/spoiler] Edited July 31, 2024 by AmiroGp 11 Quote
Carl Vespucci Posted August 28, 2024 Report Posted August 28, 2024 (edited) Carl was looking around the city, looking to fill his new role of the plug. The plug is someone who finds a way to provide product to people in the city who may not have connections to the Cartel. Carl drove around to find different smaller groups who he could push product through. One day he noticed a convoy of Pink/Green vehicles moving throughout the city. He saw them pull into Pink Cage. He stopped in and talked to a few they called their selves the Waterfelons. After speaking to the Waterfelons Carl asked who they do business with, which they stated the Grey gang. After speaking and hearing of the terms between the Grey gang and Waterfelons. Carl was filled with anger. "The Grey gang is telling us we need to pay a protection fee to operate our business throughout the city" - [Redacted]. Carl knew this is not the way to keep smaller fish in the pond. Carl started providing hour by hour check -ins asking if the Watefelons needed anything. Eventually persisting that they could work with us instead and not have to pay any "protection fees". Slowly but surely Carl built trust within the Waterfelons, Hesitant at first with persistence and patience they finally agreed to drop the grey gang and work with OTF.

Carl Vespucci Posted October 2, 2024 Report Posted October 2, 2024 (edited) Carl was sitting at the block trying to push drug weight on his regular clientele of junkies and party-goers that normally stop in and get their fix. After a while Carl noticed that buisness was slow. He noticed on his phone Weazal put out an Apartment Party at Eclipse Apartment #[REDACTED]. Carl loaded up his car and took off for the party. Upon arrival Carl thought this would be a good situation to start pushing product to the party goers to attempt to build his clientele list. He figured LSD/Cocaine would be a good match for this high class party. Carl started bringing people to the entrance to do a line of his pure cocaine. A few even took his tabs of LSD and began to see funny things. Soon on the radio "Cops are surrounding the apartment." Carl let his homies know and they all made their way to the exit, Shortly after LEO were surrounding the front door waiting to arrest Carl and his fellow gang members.

AnakinB Posted October 14, 2024 Report Posted October 14, 2024 Carl caught wind of a party with the GCC (Girly Clap Crew) having an event at the Vanilla Unicorn, the spot in the hood that OTF has been salivating for. After a debriefing with a few dancers and sliding them a bit of product and discussing a plan to distribute the product, The OTF boys/a few of the GCC girls got to work.OTF ran security making sure they were the ones in control of the drug flow coming inside the club. After setting up the girls with the real stuff, Carl went out to the floor to dump what he had of LSD into the crowd. Soon the pupils of all the club goers grew and the lights became more bright and vibrant. The music sounded better, The 100% pure drugs cooked by Billy Valentine had begun to kick in for all the party-goers and suddenly everyone started to want more LSD. When all the sudden on the radio it had been called out that two officers had arrived outside. Kon, head of security for the event, also armed with Anakin Bringer with a baseball bat held strong at the front, not letting them inside, knowing about all the drugs being dispensed inside and how this could be bad for the operation being conducted. The night was a success. Or atleast OTF thought they went back to the Block to celebrate when all the sudden they were apprehended by the Drug enforcement officers. 12 Quote
Tylerwalk Posted December 19, 2024 Report Posted December 19, 2024 Tyler finally got out of doc after 3 long years and the first thing he did was call a taxi to come pick him up. After being picked up and on the way to the location he had requested, he started to notice the taxi driver seemed to be a bit different than the others since he was not following any traffic laws and driving at very excessive speeds. Tyler, being the criminal he is, didn't mind it and started to have a conversation with the driver. After a few minutes of speaking, the driver asked what Tyler did for a living. Tyler, seeing that this driver didn't seem to be a man of the law, jokingly said, "I like to cook drugs." After hearing this, the taxi driver's tone changed completely, and he began to seem excited. After a few minutes of discussing it, the driver then asked Tyler, "Can you please sell me some coke? I love Coke, and it helps me get the job done easier." Tyler then decided to ask the driver for his number and told him he would let him know if he had any left. A few minutes later, after Tyler got back on his feet, he sent a text to the driver asking if he was still interested. Within seconds the driver responded and wanted to meet up at the bank. After getting to the bank, Tyler told the driver to get the cash and give it to him. Once Tyler had the cash, he told the driver to drive him around the block so he didn't have to give the drugs to him out in the open. Once in the vehicle, Tyler then slid the taxi driver the coke and went on his way. 3 Quote

Tommy Makinen Posted February 26, 2025 Report Posted February 26, 2025 "OTF hosted a RIDE OUT where they invited multiple gangs in the city to ride alongside them in their bikes of choice. There was a great turnout, and a huge variety of vehicles from hood motor bikes, to buggies, to speed bikes, to drags. No genre left untouched. Even had the honor of boxing in Langley himself, and then messing around with PD and boxing them in and evading, before going back to our usual activities. A fun day roaming around with allies and some foes, but coming together for a cool city wide event. OTF appreciates everyone that came through, and hopes to do this again!" 9 Quote
