It will never matter whether you're a Jester, or a King. A Royal at the end of the day is family. Any and every family member is someone you would take a bullet for, but what happens when you are not there to actually take or avenge that bullet. Klaus found that out recently.

The Night Before:

It was a normal night for the a Royal. We were finishing off the last few unrobbed stores but decided to deposit the dirty money we already had into a secure location. On the way to deposit, one of the Jesters, Klaus Jones, had seen a car left alone that he had also seen some hours before. Thinking the cars owner has not yet come to retrieve their vehicle he went ahead and chose to try and pick lock the vehicle, attempting to chop it into parts to sell off to the black market mechanics. Meanwhile, the rest of the royals were depositing the dirty money in a nearby location. Hands sweaty and shaking from the store robberies earlier, he ended up breaking one of his lockpicks whilst attempting to take the car. Sadly triggering the internal silent alarm of the vehicle. After attempting to keep lockpicking the car, a dark red exemplar had come swerving down the road at high speeds and drifted into the location where Klaus was standing. Swiftly getting out of his car and instantly putting Klaus at gun point and telling him to get to the alley behind. Under the assumption that this man was part of The Rising Suns, Klaus assumed that the man would know who Klaus was rolling with, from the professional grey attire and flamboyant blue and gold vehicles nearby. As he took him to the alley we had lost visual and contact with Klaus. A few moments later Easton and Jesse, who were putting the dirty money away heard gunshots and instantly ran towards them after seeing that Klaus was not where he said he would be. 

As he got into the alleyway, there was blood all over the area, he slowly stepped closer to the corner where he heard the groans of a man close to death. Laying there on the floor drowning in his own blood Klaus had 4 bullet holes in his stomach and chest. Instantly Easton called this over radio and had Jesse show up with a car. Quickly but carefully stuffing Klaus into the car they drove as fast as they could to Pillbox MD. No words were mentioned as the surgeon there took over and instantly went to work on saving Klaus' life. Easton and Jesse spent the last hours of the night thinking over the worst in the waiting room, just waiting for the light to turn off so they could find out if their brother was going to make it. After a good few hours the surgeon finally left the room and went to speak to Easton and Jesse where he confirmed Klaus had been stabilized. Easton and Jesse headed into the room to visit Klaus and spent the night by their brothers side.

The Next Morning:

Slowly each Royal slowly began to wake up the next morning only to hear the news that had been going around. Klaus had been shot by a Rising Sun. Instantly acting on what had happened, Drake woke up and put his radio on to hear about it too and instantly made the decision to go speak about this with the rest of the Rising Suns. The Royals got into their cars and headed over to Little Tokyo. Arriving to the Rising Sun HQ, no one was spotted and had the Royals confused as to where they were as the slowly took over the area with their numbers, literally sitting on their rooftops and chairs waiting for their arrival as someone had called for Micah Ellis to arrive. Finally he arrived with his High Command and the Royals began to speak.

Seeing the numbers had the Rising Suns questioning why all this was required over what had happened. But Drake instantly went ahead and stated he is not going to stop his family from being there for their fellow brother or sister, no matter what their rank or status. So with the Royal audience, the higher ups between each respective organisation had begun speaking. After constant back and forths the main thing that had been stated was that the Rising Sun had no clue about the Royal colours and had resolved it by saying sorry and giving Klaus a call after that had been settled. Not approving this resolution Drake, Blaze and Paige stepped up and stated a 4 bullets and several nights at the emergency room was not equivilant to a phone call apology. They demanded something be done to make it even for the Klaus and were not going to be happy until this was done. At the end of the day Royals realised the conversation was useless, they had given the Rising Suns more than they deserved, knowing the member that shot Klaus had been in the crew for more than a week and still not knowing of other crew colours. 

https://imgur.com/n2vFASj

Sadly cop cars had begun to pull up to little Tokyo after seeing the Royal Convoy in the area, having half his crew strapped Drake made the call for all the strapped people to insantly dip as the rest of the crew carried on with the conversation with the Rising Suns. Realising they were getting no where with this Drake demanded for the Rising suns to make up for what their member had done. He was to be offered on a plate. They then headed out back to their turf in wait for the Rising Suns response.

Born in 1997 and living in the outskirts of Liberty City, Joshua had a peaceful early childhood living with his mother and father. His mother being a middle school teacher and his father having an unknown source of income, one cannot say they were living a poor life. Joshua’s mother would be gone during the days and often work overtime, which left him bothering his father in the meanwhile.

Alexander Reese would reside in the garage most of the day, working on his beloved possession, the Dinka Jester Classic. Little Josh would always try to help out with the car as much as he can, and even though he would end up breaking something more often than fixing, this sparked his early interest in vehicles and anything mechanically related. Since his father was gone during the evenings and nights, and his mother was exhausted after work, Joshua would often be left alone during those times. Not having many friends in the area due to the way he walks, talks and behaves meant that he had to find entertainment in other ways. He would sneak his way into the garage and start tinkering on his father’s car and getting better and better at disassembling and assembling the parts back together.

As the years went by, his father would be home less and less, which meant that the only bonding activity between Josh and his father was left standing idle. Joshua decided that it is due time for his father to take the Jester Classic out of the garage and drive it around and takes it upon himself to get into working order while his father is away. Every day after school Joshua would go straight to the garage and start working on his father’s car, making mistakes and learning from them until one day he took the key into the ignition, turned it and after some sputtering the car came back to life. Joshua knew that his father wouldn't be coming back home until late and decided to stay up waiting for him to give him the good news.

Around midnight he hears the engine of a car pull up to his house and a knock on the door shortly after. “Must have forgotten his keys” was the thoughts that went through Joshua’s head as he was approaching the door to open it. However, when he opened the door, in front of him stood not his father, but three burly men in suits. They looked down on Joshua and mumbled “Alexander was told not to fuck around with the Pegorino family” before pushing him aside and entering the house. They proceeded to go through all belongings before heading up the stairs to the master bedroom where his mother was sleeping. Last thing he heard while getting dragged away from the house was his mother’s screams coming from upstairs then silence. In his shocked state, knowing what just happened, he stood there frozen not knowing what to do. At 15 he was left alone with no family and friends, all because his father decided to do business with people that he shouldn’t have. Joshua looks up and sees the garage door opening, and his father’s Jester Classic driving out, taking away his last memories with his father with it.

 

Growing Up and Moving to LS

Z7Apl08.png

After the incident with his parents, Joshua was left homeless and wanting to avoid an orphanage he stayed in motels that he paid for with the money he got from doing odd jobs. One day he saw an ad for a Taxi company that was taking in anyone, for less than minimum pay. It was not ideal, but a steady income is what he needed at that point. He got the job just by appearing, since he was apparently the only one interested in working there. It was soon obvious to Josh why nobody wanted to apply there, when his shady boss started to get into the same thing his father was involved in. Josh would drive around crime bosses and family members to meetings, sometimes even held at gunpoint while doing so. He had gotten decent at driving and getting away from unwanted attention in a vehicle before he even got his license.

Joshua knew that this type of life would backfire sooner or later, but he decided to stick with it for the money and experience. It lasted for approximately 5 years, with his boss getting into deeper and deeper shit, Joshua had to be the one getting him out of the said shit. It all lasted until one day upon his arrival at work, the entire building was ablaze in broad daylight. This was the last straw for Joshua, he packed and took the first flight into Los Santos the same day.

Upon his arrival at Los Santos, Joshua decided that this time he is going to go legal and stay on the right side of the law. Starting off as a bus driver and a farmer, things seemed to go great for him, he even wanted to apply to be a mechanic at one of the garages in the city considering he had experience with cars. He was, however, denied at both places looking for mechanics, and it broke him. His only passion was closed off for him, even in a city that was to be a new start for him. It was not long after this that Joshua got into the life of crime by getting to know the members of various gangs.

The Rising Suns

dhlOn0I.jpg

Joshua joined with the Rising Suns through his connections with members and was approved for the initiation by their leader, Micah Ellis. Through them he proceeded to learn the inner workings of the city, the activity of other gangs, and illicit ways of earning money. During the day they would stay at the pier as a social gang, whilst at night they would conduct store robberies and car thefts to earn extra money.

Joshua’s stay with the Rising Suns was not prolonged as he was constantly feeling exhausted with the night-time activities and it left him feeling empty at the end of the day. This is where he got word from his friends and former members of Rising Suns about a gang that was proud of who they are and flaunted their activities in broad daylight. He spoke to the members of the said gang, and after getting to know more about them, he decided that this is the right direction for him. Joshua resigned from Rising Suns and gave the leader of the new gang a call hours after leaving.

 

Los Santos Royals

Joshua dials the number given to him by one of the members and hears it ring. He sits in the car waiting patiently for the answer, but to no avail. After not getting an answer he decided to wait around and take a drive around the city hoping for a call back. While cruising through the Vinewood hills he gets passed by a bike in familiar colors that he was told about, so he decides to stop the biker and ask him about the gang. When the biker takes his helmet off, it is revealed that it is none other than Drake Hunter, one of the leaders of Los Santos Royals. He had just conducted a bank robbery, which is why the phone call never went through. A meeting was organized shortly after, introducing Joshua to the members and different ranks of Los Santos Royals, and mere hours later Joshua was already in colors.

With the Los Santos Royals, Joshua gets to learn information about the deeper end of the city, things that he has never even heard of. His connection to the members grew stronger by the day and soon, he could say with confidence that the Royals are his family. They proceeded to rob stores, banks, going to labs and cooking drugs, all making the bond between Joshua and the family stronger day by day.

During one of the meetings with the higher ups, Joshua receives a call and is told to come up to the observatory, it being urgent. He tells the others that he has to go and makes his way up to the observatory. Upon his arrival he sees the Jester Classic that his father used to own standing in the parking lot, and his girlfriend standing besides it. She somehow managed to find it and get it imported into the city. She hands him the keys and tells him that it is rightfully his and it should stay that way. Joshua makes his way to the mechanic and paints the Jester Classic in Royals colors, combining the families that he had into one big one.

Wake up

HnFlkQ6.png

She opened her eyes to a small black kitten trying to wake her up by walking on her chest, the cuteness made her smile and pet the cat gently. Now, more awake, looked to her side and saw her husband still fast asleep, a lot of things ran through her mind in that moment. 

Since her early childhood Lilith’s life was what others would consider perfect, a nice middle class family living in a quiet neighborhood, always had food on her table and a good education. She was the embodiment of the nice girl next door, but always felt empty, like something was missing in her life, day by day the only thing keeping her going was the scary feeling of not being a disappointment. That was until her 18th birthday, the day something changed in her, there were no more obligations by her family, school ended, and now she could start living her own life which was terrifying. Only one thing made sense in her mind, arts, her only known and actually recognized talent, drawing, painting, filmmaking, photography, design, writing, music, she was good at it.  

True Colors

But to say that I’m a rainbow, to tell me that I’m bright

When I’m so used to feeling wrong, Well it makes me feel alright.”

jRtCzHV.png

A Communications degree, multiple odd jobs and a bunch of tries made her realise that arts was not a viable source of income, which meant that once again her life lacked purpose. Was at the early months of her 24th year of life that the traveling started, with the goal of finding something more and maybe herself along the way, Lilith, went to every place that could cross her mind. Different cities, different countries and languages, a bunch of different cultures, somehow curiosity and fascination with knowing new things kept her busy for years. It wasn’t until she put a foot on Los Santos that the realization hit her, a city with such a variety of people, so many and very weird opportunities, maybe this was her place. Los Santos was known for not being the safest place on earth, but that was just part of the excitement and she wanted to experience it all. The pier on Del Perro was her first stop and she was up to an amazing start, meeting all kinds of people and even making friends. Was that same spot in the city where she met the most amazing characters and even the man that would end up becoming her husband. Also, that was the place where she started to learn about the nasty side of town; gangs, robbery, the night life and drug dealing. She became a mechanic at Los Santos Customs but after getting to love the staff realized that the people that she started to appreciate were in one place. Los Santos Royals. 

Royal Blood

The beginning was difficult and full of prejudice, they are a gang, they do illegal stuff, they rob people, steal cars, produce drugs, they are also friendly, take care of their people, they’re fun, they are family. This last statement was what made her start to get closer to the people in the group, resign to her job at LSC and finally, with a little bit of help, ask to join them. Since day one all the members were welcoming and kind, laughter was all encompassing and in times when they needed to be serious they had each other's back. With a lot to learn, Lilith, started as a Jester on LSR, and that was the best decision ever. That was it, she didn’t have to keep looking around, no more going place to place trying to find herself, she realised that she already found what she needed, love, fun, purpose… family.

Jesse Henderson was born in a rough neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. His upbringing was difficult, and at his age, he found himself hanging out with the wrong people. He decided to make a change when he was 18 years old. He gathered all of the money he could find stashed away in odd places and traveled to Los Santos, where he could reinvent himself. Unfortunately, he was heavily influenced to go down the wrong path from a young age, and these habits followed him wherever he went.

 

Within a few days, he had begun robbing stores with three other people he met during his first few days in the city. They weren't particularly close, but they worked well together. During one of their robberies, a police car pulled up to the store. All three bolted from the store, sprinting for their bikes.The PD unit could be heard asking for backup as they began to chase. The pursuit had begun. Jesse was the first person out of the store, so he had a significant advantage over the cruiser and was not targeted. 5 minutes later, he heard his friend, who was being pursued by cops, say that his car had stalled. Jesse knew this was the end of his run with his group and that he needed to take a break.

 

A few months later, Jesse was walking around the city at night when he came across a convenience store. When he looked inside, he was astounded to see two masked men holding the man at gunpoint and robbing the store. Memories rushed back to him, and he recalled the good old days of running stores with his friends. Jesse put on his mask and casually walked into the store, asking the two if he could join them. There was a strange vibe at the time, as these two weren't sure what to make of some random person joining them. Jesse joined in on the action after they cautiously agreed. They formally introduced themselves after running a few more stores and gaining more trust with each other. Jesse discovered their names were Easton and Luca. They became close quickly as a result of their unusual meeting, and they started running more stores together.

Eventually, Easton joined the “Los Santos Royals,” an up and coming gang. He'd tell Jesse about how professional and dedicated the group was, and how he should consider joining. Jesse was initially hesitant due to his previous negative experiences with gangs in his hometown of Chicago. But after a while, he realized that he needed a family on whom he could rely and who would always have his back. This inspired him to try and join the Royals, and Easton assisted Jesse in setting up a meeting with their leaders in order for him to be recruited.

Fortunately, the Royals' three leaders agreed to give him a chance, and he is now attempting to prove himself to them.

Sleight of Hand

Wrong Place, Wrong Time:

It was just another day for the Royals, finishing their daily events of robbing every store and cooking for the night as they all collected around their HQ and just spent some time as a family. All completely relaxed and chilling by the chess board and pool of their HQ, they heard a Templar on radio speaking about some random person attempting to mess around with him and his car. Upon hearing this, everyone dropped everything and instantly got into their cars and bikes and rode off to the templar. Eventually reaching him, they saw the man attempt to punch the templar, with one swift dodge and punch the templar avoided the punch and pulled out his .50 with the rest of us doing the same. The man, realising the mistake he had made instantly put his hands in the air and was told to get into the trunk of the paragon. Driving him to one of our secluded locations where we had the rest of the crew waiting. Little did he know what he was in store for.

 The Preperation:

Already being prepared for these types of scenarios, Drake made the call for the crew to go pick up the equipment they needed to rob a bank. Instantly 3 Royals headed out and got what they needed. The drill, guns and the most importantly, the cars. Everyone was confused but Drake had asked for two identical Sultan Classics. One of which was no where near the bank and just planted, the second one would be located at the bank and be the original getaway vehicle. The plan was simple, we get a good enough distance between the getaway car and the primary police unit and we use that gap to lost visual contact for one second. One second was all we needed. The second car headed up to what the Royals called "Rainbow garage", The original car headout out, armed and ready for the next bank that would make the city remember the Royal name. 

The Bank:

8SLdIwk.png

Instantly arriving at the bank and dropping the hostage to the ground, the Royals swiftly got to work. Preparation of the drill was ready as the driller had marked the locations where he wanted to drill. Slowly picking up the heavy drill he placed it onto the location as he started to drill, smoke resonated from the drill, the scratching noise rampaging into everyones ear drums. Meanwhile at the front of the bank LSPD had arrived and begun wanting to speak with the lead robber, negotiation had begun as the bank was continued to be robbed. Attempting to get free passage westbound was a necessity for the plan, if Drake couldnt achieve that it would be 100x harder to complete the escape using the second car. The drill began to increase in heat, almost overheating but begin quick on his feet Easton managed to cool it down enough so that he could continue, eventually breaking the hinges on the vault and opening the door.

After a long and hard negotiation period Drake had managed to achieve everything he needed to, free passage for a few second to head westbound and no spike strips. The helicopter wasnt a problem to start with, we knew that after the swap that wouldnt be an issue. All the money was robbed and the bank was empty, LSPD had gotten all their permissions and they instructed us that we were good to go. We slowly left the bank one by one, making sure the hostage remained at gunpoint till the last man got into the car, we were in the car, Drake got in the driver seat and instantly drove westbound, getting ready to get into rainbow garage.

The Getaway:

Driving westbound, 210KM/H, drifting past, in and out of the oncoming traffic, dodging all the cars and cruisers in attempt to gain a large enough gap. Realising he is far enough Drake heads towards the garage only to realise there was one thing he didnt account for, the Hakouchou unit. Steadily staying on his back Drake was struggling to gain a large enough gap. Thinking on his feet Drake realised what he needed to do, grabbing the handbrake and turning the wheel he did a 180 turn and instantly drove forwards, attempting to cause the bike to slow down on the turn and potentially be distracted by the barage of cruisers behind them. It worked, Drake had managed to get such a gap that he could go to the garage. He instantly headed towards it. 

https://medal.tv/clips/4q47eUzqikEeV/dGNtAQmDZULk?invite=cr-MSw0bnksMTQ0ODExLA==

Getting to the garage Drake instantly drove up the ramp as his passenger gave communication to the second car, making the turn Drake instantly hid in the corner and turned his engine off. With the Hakouchou still following but far enough to not see the turn, the second car had started to move and replaced visual for the original car. Leaving the garage the second car had managed to lure all the cruisers and got out of the area, allowing for the first car to ditch the car and walk off the roof of the garage. With a third out of colours royal car ready to be used, the bank robbers had made it home free.

As a boy, Greenwood committed small time pranks and petty theft with his neighborhood friends in rural Virginia. As a boy, his best friends, the D’Agostino family began to teach him the ways of Italian life. Growing up he spent many hours hanging out in their restaurant after school doing homework, waiting tables, and even making pies in the back.

onMTMW_Ool5a2cCjJUoNSttlfxvQaS5QDX60uR0CJC4lCdR-eAWHvzNE_wEVjqguz1Ry-lQiN_sxyzSYEO6YnubUeMAQHVCDZ82duU5iOb1fS_YromoMZ9V3fVq6MrNSVUb0DHDH=s0

 Many of his neighbors would say Greenwood was a generally quiet and pleasant kid who didn't seem to get into any more mischief than his peers. But there were also accounts of juvenile delinquency and malicious behavior as a teen. To a degree, both of these perceptions can be seen as correct and are evident in his adult life. 

 

At 15 Greenwood’s parents passed away. With no other family members close in kin the D’Agostinos decided to officially adopt him. He worked at the Pizzeria full-time and began taking Italian at the local community college. While he never could get past the first level, he found a new appreciation for Italian culture whilst living with his new family. His first experience was watching the Italian National Team fail to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. After hours of screaming “Forza Italia!!” In his harsh American accent, the team fell short, leaving his family devastated. 

 

Dylan and his brothers began to start causing chaos around town. Most notably they robbed a gas station wearing watermelons as masks. While they never got caught by the police, their father found out immediately. It was at this time Mr. D’Agostino made a drastic decision. Close up shop and move to Los Santos, hoping a change of scenery would get the boys on the right track. Things did not change and after just two weeks in the city Mr. D’Agostino disowned Dylan Greenwood, citing him as the cause for his boys’ new found desire for trouble. After a week on the street Dylan met his ride-or-die. Gerry Korpov.

 

Dylan and Gerry quickly fell into the ranks of the Italian mafia, LNF. in La Nostra Famiglia, Dylan & Gerry spent many hours hard at work chopping cars and maintaining the gang’s turfs. Months passed and things appeared to be going great, until one night, the Capo, Christopher Luciano pulled Dylan aside.

 

“He’s a rat. Gerry’s been feeding our information to other gangs.” Chris said. Dylan felt betrayed. His ride-or-die had turned on him. Unbeknownst to Gerry Dylan began his own mission. He approached Gerry. Made up a story he was fed up with LNF, that he wanted to do something drastic. It worked.

 

Gerry gave Dylan keys to his stash house, the place he kept all of his goodies. Dylan got to work, spending a full night guessing away at Gerry’s codes. After 4 hours he got it. 3972. Dylan gave Chris a call and they made the move.

11x Pistol .50s

2x SMGs

4x Micro SMGs

1x Parachute

3x Pump Shotguns

3x Assault Rifles

100’s of Attachments

 

He hit the motherload. He taught the snake a lesson. 

 

Dylan convinced Gerry it was a police raid, and that it was time to make their move on Chris. Dylan told him to rally his boys and get ready to raid Chris’ lab. Gerry and 4 friends, armed with heavies moved into the lab, ready to clear Chris’ stash. As they stepped in Dylan locked the front door, trapping them in the living room. Little did they know Chris himself was locked in the closet, where he began cooking cocaine. The toxic fumes killed everyone in the apartment. Except Chris Who had a gas mask. 

 

The rat was neutralized.

 

Dylan was called back to Virginia for a few months were he lived out of a hotel and worked landscaping. Upon his return he discovered LNF had disbanded. He gave Chris a call and the two met up in mirror park.

 

Chris established a new crew, BSB. Dylan worked with the group for a few months but realized it wasn’t for him, he missed the business oriented style of LNF.


One day after leaving Hayes dealership he saw some Royals hanging out on West Eclipse Blvd. He approached, shook their hands, and the rest was history.

Born on April 23rd in 1998, Brandon Winters was raised in a small town in the southern part of the Netherlands. Growing up, his childhood was difficult and rough as his parents would constantly fight with his dad being an alcoholic and his mom suffering from manic depression and after his sister being born, Brandon felt neglected with all of his parents’ attention diverting towards his sister. Further growing up throughout the years, Brandon decided that he wanted to separate himself from his parents and become independent, causing him to mature very early on and to drop out of school to get a job to be able to afford his own place where he could retreat from all the fighting and stress that came with it.

 

After getting a job as a manager at a custom personal computer manufacturing company and working there for over 2 years, being able to afford his own place as well, Brandon was still not satisfied as he felt he could not get distanced enough from his parents. After a lot of contemplating, Brandon decided that he would have to leave the country and start over elsewhere in order to escape all the fuzz going on at home. This is where his eyes fell on Los Santos…

 

Brandon took about a week to get all the paperwork ready and make sure he packed all the essentials he needed to take with him and then booked his flight to Los Santos. After his 11-hour flight, Brandon stepped his first foot onto Los Santos’ soil, it felt great and refreshing.

After spending a few days in Los Santos, Brandon started hanging out on the pier to socialize and fish to make some money so he could pay for a place to stay. A few days go by before Brandon gets contacted by a person asking if he would be interested in criminal activities which could make him some good money. Thinking about it he thought “Why not?” and gave in, making a start to his criminal life.

A few weeks go by with Brandon eventually having been part of 2 gangs, Grim Reapers and the Rising Suns, as he gets in contact with Drake Hunter. Drake tells him about an up and coming gang called the “Los Santos Royals” which consists of 3 leaders and 3 separate sectors each being led by one of the leaders respectively. The structure and level of organizing sounded like music to Brandon’s ears. After a chat about Brandon’s capabilities and experience, Brandon became a part of “The Royals”, soon finding out that they would become a real family to him.

 

gUDRyFn.png

 

Brandon started loving the lifestyle of robbing convenience stores, banks and people together with his family, it made him feel good. He started to get better and better at being a criminal fairly quickly, which would be confirmed by him climbing the ranks within LSR fairly quickly as well, currently being part of their High Command. Brandon finally felt like he was being included, being appreciated and loved by family, something he had not really felt before he decided to move to Los Santos.

Childhood and Upbringing 

 

Rashad Booker was born in the inner city of Los Santos on the 16th of March1999 in a middle class family. Growing up he was exposed to a lot of gang violence due to the area of his upbringing, however his parents kept an extremely close eye on Rashad ensuring he does not get into the gangster lifestyle that was surrounding him and for the most part it worked. Rashad grew up and was a very well behaved student throughout school achieving high grades and graduating with honors. Shortly After graduating, Rashad was planning on continuing his studies in the university of Los Santos pursuing an Engineering Degree. However, something happened that would change everything...

 

 

The Epiphany

 

During an uneventful night, Rashad received a phone call from the central MD hospital informing him that both of his parents were involved in a car crash and are critically injured. Rashad panicked around his house looking for his car keys, he quickly put on any coat that he could find and left the apartment sprinting. By the time Rashad arrives at the hospital both of his parents had no pulse and were pronounced dead. As Rashad stood there in the hospital room he broke down into tears and refused to leave the room after staff asked multiple times. He eventually gave in and went back to his apartment depressed, confused and angry.

 

A week later Rashad Is still heavily grieving and as he was walking back home from the nearby supermarket he got robbed by 2 masked men that looked to be around the same age as him. The men robbed him at gunpoint and told him to hand over anything he has, he compiled but noticed something, he recognized these men's voices. He asked "who are you guys?", to which they then took off their masks and revealed that they were his bullies in high school, these were the kids that Rashad's parents were trying to keep him away from, that kind of life. They robbed him of everything he had and left him. In that moment Rashad was in extreme levels of anger, It was at that moment when Rashad decided he wanted to live that lifestyle. He was done with being bullied and pushed around.


 

The Transition

 

The next day Rashad hits up a friend of his for a while, Nathan Briggs. He knew that Nathan worked for LSEMS but recently quit and slipped into gang life again. He told Nathan he wants to join him, Nathan tells him to meet at Grove Street the following day. As Rashad is driving towards Grove he constantly remembers the times where his parents told him never to go there and that it's a dangerous place. He powered through and arrived. Upon arriving he met some of the low command in Ballas and they informed Rashad of what he needed to do to get in colors and be a true member. Days of stealing cars and robbing stores proved to them that Rashad was dedicated to this and soon enough he managed to get into colors.

However Rashad's time in Ballas was short as he would meet 2 individuals that would make him leave and join a different crew...


 

Introduction to Royals

 

As Rashad was minding his own business up north in Paleto he was approached by 2 individuals wearing grey suits and black pants, after having a good and long conversation with them they asked whether Rashad would like to join them. Rashad, seeing that he is not going anywhere in Ballas, takes this offer and then both of them say while laughing "Ok will have to get rid of these baggy ass clothes you are wearing". They then took Rashad to the Royals HQ and he got an opportunity to talk to one of the leaders of Royals, Drake Hunter. Drake agreed for Rashad to join and told the 2 people who introduced me to him to get him in colors. These 2 people were Easton Rich and Jesse Henderson and they would help Rashad settle with the Royals for the coming days. As Rashad was with them he was thinking to himself "Why would a gang called the Royals want a wanna-be hood rat like me?". It was a very big change for Rashad, having to wear formal clothes, he had to leave the ghetto gangsta mentality and act how the Royals acted, but it reminded him of the ways he used to live with his parents.

As Rashad got to know more members of the Royals and was more acquainted he became happier and for once he was not constantly thinking about his parents death, quite possible because the members of Royals treated him like family. 

 

Rashad is now proving himself to the leaders of Royals that he has what it takes to become a permanent member...

Cypress woke up in her beautiful bed in her beautiful apartment and cringed at the sunlight pouring through the windows. Another day in the city and yet Cypress didn’t wanna leave her bed or check on her radio. The last few days had been awful and her anxiety had been at an all time high. When the crew did stores she didn’t want to go. Even braving going into labs with a gun on her hip, her favorite thing to do in the city, she was too anxious to do.

A feeling of despair hit her and she squeezed her eyes back shut and rolled over in bed. This feeling had happened before. Her immediate thought was to run away and never look back. But she didn’t want to do that. She loved her crew and the people in it. She believed in her crew. She had been there from day one with them, when it was just her and the three leaders. But she kept feeling like she’s failing them. 

An idea popped into her head. She didn’t want to go through this all alone again. She had a support system now and she would use it and not go down this path of isolating and feeling terrible about herself. Her phone lit up as she turned it on and sent out a text to Paige.

It took a bit for a reply and the sun set when she got a text back. Paige said she would meet her at the Playboy Mansion

The two met up and Cypress hugged her best friend. The two had been through so much together and if anyone knew how to comfort her it would be her. 

Before they began, Paige pointed out the cave in the back of the Playboy mansion and said that they could go talk there to make sure they were alone.

They walked back into the cave and Cypress’s emotions started pouring out of her.

 

“I just know I’m not doing much and I feel so hopeless. I just know I’m letting everybody down.”

 

“I don’t think you’re letting people down, I think people just want you around more.” 

 

“I can understand that. Just everything is making me anxious and I don’t know how to deal with it right now.”

 

“I think you should just take it slow, go along with them when you can and push yourself a bit. I know you can do it, I think you just have to get more comfortable doing things.”

 

Cypress nodded and thought to herself for a minute. She was so busy thinking herself incapable of things that she was fulfilling a self-prophecy. She had to push herself a bit more and maybe she could prove herself wrong in the end. The thought filled her with a bit more energy and she held her head a bit higher.

 

VuMPYLN.png

 

“Thank you for hearing me out and giving your advice and being here for me.”

 

“Always.”

 

The pair hugged and went on their way to do other things. Cypress felt better about herself and more confident. This was the starting point in a journey to be a better and stronger version of herself.

I like this faction and it has a good reputation from what i've seen when it comes to dealing with PD.
Had a pursuit with Joshua Reece tonight as well, one of the best pursuits some of us have been involved in.

Hope you guys make it official and continue to go from strength to strength.

My name is John Robertson, I was born in Spain, Barcelona. I have finished my school there and when I was 17 years old I moved to Los Santos together with my father. 2 years later I applied to ULSA university and I was accepted. In the ULSA university I studied public services and policy. After I finished ULSA university, I had to find a job to make money for living. I applied to San Andreas Department of Corrections and I passed an interview. I've experienced and learned how to deal with a lot of different kinds of situations including harassment, shootouts while in active prison breakout. Positive experience in DOC was that I met a lot of people who were like family to me, but eventually they all left the city which was really sad. I was enjoying working as a correctional officer but at that time I wanted to move on to something more serious and I wanted to take a bigger part in law, so I decided to take a chance in the Police Department.

Los Santos Police Department Career


 

Somewhere around in April 2019 my application got accepted to the Los Santos Police Department. When my application got accepted I froze, at that moment I couldn’t believe that I chose this path and I will be working as a Police Officer but I still had to attend the academy, which I did and I became a cadet. The next day after my police academy I went to Mission Row Police Department, I changed my clothes into the uniform and I started my first shift. I had no idea what to expect and wasn’t sure whether to be excited or terrified but most of my first days I’ve spent on desk duty, helping people who came to the Police Department for assistance. Later on, more experienced Police Officers started taking me on ADAM (two-man patrol vehicle) patrol with them. While we were riding in the police vehicle, I asked so many questions and he answered without missing a beat. After more and more ADAM patrols I’ve realized that I’m getting more and more experienced and I actually know how to do Police work properly. Eventually the day came and I got promoted to Police Officer I since I’ve completed all of my 5 field training programs. As Police Officer I, I was able to take out a Police vehicle by myself and start patrolling alone. At first it was terrifying but slowly I stepped over myself and I wasn’t scared anymore of patrolling alone. After couple months, of so much hard work and dedication, Police Department’s high command decided to promote me to Police Officer II, I was so excited, because I knew that so many possibilities, so many ways to go just became available for me and I’ve decided to become a member of special members and tactics team (SWAT). I filled out an application and they chose me. Being in SWAT was a rough time, because I had to attend so many scenarios where my life was on the line but the most important thing is that I’m still alive and breathing. I’ve learned how to use heavy weaponry properly, how to be calm at any given situation no matter what, and how to be focused at 100% at all times. One day I received a call from my mother and she said that my brother has cancer and he does not have much to live for anymore. As soon as I heard the news I was stunned. I didn’t know what to say. One day I came up with an idea and I filled up my resignation form from the Police Department and I was honorably discharged. I decided to come back to Spain and spend as much time as I could with my brother and it was the end for my career in the Los Santos Police Department.

Downtown Cab Co. Career

 

After a year, when everything was sorted out in Spain, I decided to come back to Los Santos and continue my life there since all of my friends were living there at the moment and I had to find myself a job to make money for living. One day I saw an ad posted by Weazel News and it said that Downtown Cab Company is searching for new employees, without any doubts I’ve submitted my application because I had to make at least some money for living. In couple days my application for a taxi job was accepted, I’ve passed my interview and I officially became a taxi driver, but not for long, I didn’t feel like this is the job I want to spend working for the rest of my life, I didn’t want to sit in the car and driving someone from point A to point B the whole day. Eventually the day came and I resigned from the Downtown Cab Company because like I said, that job was not for me.


 

Los Santos Royals

 

I was thinking “What do I do with my life now?” and here’s where Drake Hunter comes in. I met this guy a long time ago, he was pretty new to the city so I helped him out sometimes and we became really good friends and I’m very thankful for that. Drake was committing crime, because he didn’t saw himself doing anything else in this life but the most important part that he was doing it with a smile on his face, he was enjoying and proud of himself doing that and that really got me thinking: “Do I even want to be legal?”. Eventually I received a call from Drake and he told me that he and other two people created their own illegal crew and he invited me, at that point I still didn’t knew either I want to join in and ruin the good side of my career and be happy or stay like I am and continue making money the way I did, so I said: “give me couple days to think about it and I will give you a call back”. Couple days passed by and I came up with the decision to join his crew, it was one of the biggest moves in my life but I was glad about it, because especially in this crew I found my place where I belong and the most important part is that I found a family and I love every single of them with all my heart.

 

The rest is history

Jaylen Clarkson comes from a life of hardship. He comes from a family of poor blue collar Asian immigrants and is the firstborn child of the family in America. Jaylen was born in Los Santos, but moved away with his family to the city of Las Venturas when he was five years old because his mother had found a job there as a nurse. His father also died when he was still a baby. Growing up, Jaylen wasn't very passionate or ambitious about much of anything except for basketball. He grew up playing the sport and watched it whenever he could on television but that's as far as it went.



 

2yZqn4M.png



 

Jaylen finished high school as a just above average student. He started working as a food server in an assisted living facility for senior citizens with no clear goal in life. Jaylen kept all of his friends from school at an arm's length and so he wasn’t close to them. He was making very little money and his family was struggling financially. Knowing this, he put immense pressure on himself to help be a provider for his family because his mother was the breadwinner of the family. She was the main person of income in the family.

 

He began working a second job to increase his income to help his mother. After a few years of working two jobs, Jaylen realized he would eventually burn himself out if he didn't come up with a better solution. He sought advice from his mother who was the only other person making more than minimum wage in the family. She advised that Jaylen might have better luck finding a better paying job in Los Santos because it's a bigger city with more opportunities. Jaylen's mother advised that he could seek a career in law enforcement or some other government job as those gave stable pay and if one was passionate about it, would have a very fulfilling career.

 

Jaylen's mother, having lived in Los Santos for a long time before their move to Las Venturas, advised Jaylen about the vices that Los Santos may have. It's a city with many temptations and influences. So Jaylen began preparing for a move to Los Santos. He had no contacts in Los Santos but decided to gamble and bet on himself to find success in Los Santos. If all else failed, he could go back to Las Venturas as a safety blanket. But he wanted to be on his own and be a provider without having to use his family and mother as a crutch. Jaylen packed a few belongings and booked a bus ticket to Los Santos.

It was a nice and quiet day for the Royals so Paige, Cypress, Tom, and Connor decided to take a ride through the Los Santos hills. Upon passing Hungry Hunter they found a sheriff’s car, sitting on the side of the road. Intrigued, they went to grab lockpicks to steal it with. After a couple fails and high stress about a response, they unlock the sheriff’s car. Excitement brewed and they quickly went to store their car and all piled in to take a tour through the city with their prize.

After a couple minutes, not being caught, they decided to go through the hotspots of the city to show off. First stop was LSC which was relatively quiet and they weren’t spotted out. 

 

pqLwu73.png

 

The next stop was a bold move, but that was the Royal’s calling card. Bold and flashy as always they pulled up to Mission Row, laughs echoing through the car. No cops were to be seen there either and more disappointment brewed. They wanted to show off their prize.

So after riding around the city for a couple minutes they finally found a traffic stop. With a chuckle they pulled in behind it and Tom yelled out the window. “Do you need any help, officer?” and Paige followed the lead and yelled “Yeah, need any help Church?” And with that the chase started.

The chase lasted quite a while. Paige focused on driving through the entirety of the city, making a good show of all the officers it was taking to catch them. Eventually, however, they were caught. They spent a couple years in prison and got a few thousand in fines. It was entirely worth it for the four of them, though. Making such a spectacle and hopefully getting media coverage was huge for them.

Born in the Bronx, New York, Jay McKay was an awfully quiet and shy child

due to the fact that his parents used to abuse him every single day. Jay McKay had a very rough childhood that made him scared of people he would never interact or speak to anyone and he always used to get picked on for being too quiet and weird. One particular day, Jay McKay was walking home from school when a masked man went up to him and started robbing him, taking his phone, wallet, and jewelry. Jay was devastated and was scared to go home, when he got home his parents were furious, they started yelling and punching him, that’s when Jay had enough. He got all the money he could and booked a one way flight to Los Santos, not knowing his life would change for the better.

 

When Jay got to the city he knew what he wanted to do, he wanted to become a great criminal in one of the biggest gangs in Los Santos. First day in Los Santos Jay met a great man called Kringlz we used to roll around Los Santos and look for people to make friends with and that’s how Jay met Ray Edwards. Ray was one of the best and funniest people Jay could make friends with, he was there for Jay and Jay was there for him. One day Jay and Kringlz wanted to rob a store, so Jay called Ray to see if he knew any people to sell Jay a gun. To Jay’s surprise he did know someone so Ray told him to meet him at the bank. Taking Kringlz’s car and leaving him at the pier, Jay was excited, he went to the bank as fast as he could and when Jay arrived, both Ray and Jay paid half and half for the gun. Picking up Ray from the bank we headed back to the pier where Kringlz was waiting for us, unfortunately Jay got nervous when he saw the cop and swerved right around him causing the cop to pull Jay over. Jay was nervous; he has never encountered a cop before. The cop told Jay that the car wasn’t his and he needed to step out of the vehicle, so Jay complied. When Jay stepped out of the vehicle he went to the wall that the cop told him to go to and wait there while he figured out whose car it was. After waiting for so long another officer realizes something weird behind Jay’s back, it was his gun. Holding Jay at gunpoint the officer put cuffs on Jay and Jay ended up getting arrested.

Arriving at the prison, Jay was nervous, he didn’t know what to expect. The corrections officer uncuffed him and Jay put on his jumpsuit. Jay walked out of the cell nervous but, then he met one amazing man that would change his life completely, his name was Blaze Jackson, he was the nicest person Jay has met and made Jay feel safe at the prison. Blaze was telling Jay his life story and how he got arrested. At the end of Blaze’s life story Jay thought to himself on how he would make a great gang leader, so he asked Blaze if he has ever owned a gang, his response was “Yes I have”. Jay thinking even more ended up asking Blaze if he could make a gang at first Blaze was hesitant but, all the begging Jay did convinced Blaze to say yes and that’s how Dawn started. flYDSHOaL_j7v9bIY_u_IUcAcJ8O6_zZ5eUd1FRf6fY_lWKuE_GFcKypABVe_x8IDe0GiwhiymFJznYtaOfmn-zOYgVdPS2OOA4jOl0RbNNPLEKlLY8re1ywzY6IOLKeda0GFIK3=s0

Blaze informed Jay that he works for Blaze and only Blaze. When Jay got out of prison he was excited, he wanted to impress Blaze by getting as many people in Dawn as he could. When Blaze got out, to Blaze’s surprise Jay gathered around 10-12 people ready to be in the gang life. Unfortunately Dawn’s time was limited, as Blaze was in the plans of making a new and better gang called The Los Santos Royals with Paige West, Joey Murphy, and Drake Hunter. Jay didn’t know at the time but, when Blaze informed Jay about the good news, Jay exploded with happiness, he was telling Blaze how much he appreciated him and how he is like a  father he never fully had.

Tomwa Romanov is a Welsh born citizen descending from Russian parents who had left Russia at the collapse of the USSR. Born in 1999, he had spent the first 20 years of his life coasting through with no care nor ambition at all. He didn’t know who he was or what he wanted to be but what he did know is that he wanted to travel the world and see everything it had to offer. This, is what had led him to Los Santos. Tom had traveled to Los Santos for the first time a year and a half ago, just another stop on his travels as he didn’t know the city or anyone in it. It was not until a year later that he had gotten a call from a friend living in Los Santos who had been living there a while and said he should come visit and show him around properly. Tom had decided to take his friend up on this offer.

Tom met up with his friend Tyler and he began showing him the city and how to survive in it. Through their travels, Tom was introduced to Paige West, one of the leaders of the Los Santos Royals. He was also introduced to Cypress, the best friend of Paige West, and she was someone who Tom would grow very close to in the coming months of his time in the city. In fact, she became the reason he decided to take a chance and join the Royals.

Tom's time in Royals has been absolutely exceptional as he has found more than a gang or a group of friends, he found a family who would stand with him and people he could really connect with. Tom has grown massively as a person while being around the Royals as it has given him something to strive for and gives him reason to apply himself fully, as well as being surrounded by exceptional individuals that push him to be better.

Early Life

 

Joseph Dredd was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. He lived in a neighborhood called Englewood, where he was “raised” by his drug-addicted mother and abusive father. An intelligent child, he would often find himself in trouble... Whether it was swindling the neighborhood kids out of a few dollars, or manipulating them to commit petty thefts for him. He quickly found himself wrapped up with the wrong groups and hanging out with unsavory people instead of going to school. At the age of 17, he saw his childhood best friend gunned down in the streets. Witnessing this senseless act of violence saw a huge paradigm shift in the way that Joseph looked at life. He distanced himself from his street life and devoted himself to his studies. Being a bright individual, he was able to easily obtain his GED and even scored well enough to get a full-ride scholarship to University. After finishing school, he reconnected with his half-brother Maverick McCummin and decided to move out to Los Santos and start a life.

 

Legal Boi

 

Immediately upon moving to Los Santos, Joseph applied for a position as a Deputy Sheriff with the Los Santos County Sheriff’s Department. He was accepted and served a short stint with the department before he became frustrated with the hours that he was working and the lack of other deputies on the shift. He resigned with an honorable discharge and once again was a private citizen with little direction.


 

nKCJjn3.png


 

All the years of listening to Maverick harp about how much fun he had working at Los Santos Emergency Medical Services, piqued Joseph’s interest. He applied and was accepted into the ranks of LSEMS. Joseph spent several months working hard and proving himself within the department. He quickly worked his way through the ranks and achieved the position of Head Surgeon. However, after a long grueling time in EMS… he became burnt out and felt unappreciated for the work that he had done. He felt like he poured so much of his time into it and nobody seemed to appreciate it.


 

The Slip Back Into Darkness

 

                             

     SZEoFEA.png


 

Joseph once again found himself meeting and hanging out with people who were involved in the criminal life. He was able to easily identify with these people and understood their way of life, using his experience from his youth to blend in. He saw how carefree they were and how much fun they were having. This was a huge change from his stressful career at LSEMS. He had made several friends in several organizations but ultimately decided to try his luck with The Royals. Being that he was a primarily legal citizen for most of his time in the city, his initiation and trial phase was much more brutal than that of a normal person joining the crew. Several of the members constantly harped on Joseph about how they didn’t trust him. After a lot of work and time, he was able to eventually earn their trust and became a member of the family.
