WESTSIDE CANON (TIER 5 CRIMINAL GANGS AND INFO)

[Takanomiya Hijiri]

A little while ago now, I asked Luci for permission to expand upon and develop the Northside Wolfpack, just as All Might did with the Floating Lotus Posse. She said that was fine, so I've written something up for them. I may expand upon this information in my roster at some point after I've actually gotten around to introducing these characters, but for now this should be plenty:

Gang Name: Northside Wolfpack (NSW)

Gang Description:

An experienced, well established gang in the Northside of Tier-5. They run protection rackets, underground casinos, sell drugs, and commit robberies. They have a longstanding feud with the Northside Pyros. They use primarily traditional guns and Heaters as weapons. They are mostly a human gang, although their name comes from the belief that they are werewolves, which was earned after they were found responsible for a series of brutal axe murders. They are not affiliated with any other gangs. Their graffiti is a white wolf or the letters NSW, and their gang colors are grey-on-white.

Their Leader

Name: Bjarni Raulsson (AKA “Jarl Fenrir”)
Bio: A male Secondary with short blond hair, blue eyes and pale skin. He's tall and very muscular (basically a bodybuilder). He wears a black wolf's pelt like a cloak, with the upper half of the skull still attached. The skull sits on his head like a hood, while the rest hangs from his shoulders. It's large enough that the rear legs and tail drag across the ground. He's generally bare-chested, but wears brown leather bracers on his forearms, loose, grey jeans, and black steel-toed boots. He uses a pair of steel knuckledusters in combat.
The Jarl is extremely laid back, lazy and condescending, as well as completely fearless. He's fond of claiming to be even stronger than a Space Marine, and generally overlooks the transgressions of his underlings, since he doesn't believe any of them could ever pose a threat to him.
He doesn't have any Powers, but is extremely strong and durable. Despite his great strength, though, he'd much rather lounge around in his Base and entertain himself by watching his minions struggle than actually go out to help them. It's likely the NSW would be substantially more powerful if he wasn't so lazy.

The Four Claws
The Claws are Jarl Fenrir's elites, and each is given responsibility over a certain portion of the NSW territory, since the Jarl is generally too lazy to look after it himself.

Name: Lana Augustus
Bio: A black, female Secondary of average height with an athletic build and bright pink hair styled in a mohawk. She usually dresses in a white vest, gray skinny jeans and black trainers. She wields a weapon of her own design; the Buzzflail. It's basically just a bunch of buzzsaws attached to some long chains on the end of a stick. It's also completely moronic. Her highest Stat is TEC, but even so it's more due to luck than skill that she hasn't killed herself yet (though she has managed to accumulate a few gruesome scars). She's intensely loyal to the Jarl, but not the smartest, and can be rather psychotic at times. Despite this, she's his second in command... mostly just because he finds her entertaining.

Name: Doreen Withers
Bio: A short, elderly, pale, female Secondary who keeps her grey hair tied in a bun. She dresses in a black leather biker jacket, a black t-shirt with a skull and crossbones on the front, grey & white camo-print cargo trousers, and black motorbike boots... and yes, she drives a motorbike. She's a witch with the ability to summon rabid animals in a puff of smoke. Given whose gang she's in, it should be obvious which ones she calls upon most. Her creatures vanish in a puff of smoke when someone kills them (which is a pretty easy thing to do), and are prone to attacking anyone who isn't her. She's extremely frail, senile, and has serious anger management issues... and is the next most influential subordinate after Lana.

Name: William Darrell
Bio: A male Secondary with ruddy, Caucasian skin. He has black hair which he keeps in a sumo-style top knot. He wears a white tracksuit with grey stripes on the arms & legs, and grey trainers. Will is grossly overweight, but also extremely tall and muscular. He fights like a sumo for the most part, not liking to use heaters or bullet-guns unless absolutely necessary. He also kinda stinks, since he sweats a lot, so the others generally avoid standing too near him. Unlike the rest of the Four Claws, though, he is calm, thoughtful and reasonably intelligent. Despite this, he's ranked lower than the two women for being 'too bland' in the Jarl's opinion.

Name: Reginald Bennerton (AKA “Shotgun Steve”)
Bio: An old, male Prime of average height with tanned skin and an athletic build. He has shoulder-length grey hair and a short, wispy beard. He wears an unbuttoned grey leather waistcoat, a pair of ragged, loose white jeans, and black, steel-toed boots. He dual-wields double-barrel shotguns in battle (and has a whole pile of backups) and despises all Secondaries... the Jarl keeps Steve as the lowest-ranking member of the Claws because it amuses him to no end to see him seething with hatred & envy. Steve is a cruel and petty man who will always take out his frustrations on those weaker than himself. He's generally accompanied by a few female Secondaries he summons himself, who drive his car and haul about his guns for him.

Notable Bases:
[spoiler]The Hardware Outlet
An enormous hardware store run by Lana Augustus' father, Giuliano. It used to be much smaller until Lana used drug money to fund a massive expansion. In return for her kindness, her father let her convert much of the storage space at the rear of the building into a huge, multi-story casino; the largest the Wolfpack owns, in fact. The employees of his store have all been recruited or replaced by gang members. Many of those who hang around here admire Lana's insanity and so emulate her by using customised power-tools as weapons (though none are as absurd as hers). Her father couldn't be more proud.

The Motorsport Emporium
Serving as a front business for one of the NSW's drug dealing operations, a garage, a store selling various car- and bike-related products, a petrol station, and a bar exclusively for bikers, all rolled into one, this huge yet grimy, oil-slicked building is Doreen Withers' main hangout. Its staff and most of its customers are big, mean bikers. The attached warehouse is normally filled with (stolen) motorbikes and cars, which they soup up and sell on.

The Pseudojo
Originally intended to be another front business for drug dealing, this one utterly failed at being a business, and so was turned into a production facility instead. William Darrell runs the place and recruits only the NSW's fattest individuals for his personal goons (though unlike him they're all perfectly willing to use guns). It's a tacky, run-down knock-off of a traditional Japanese dojo, which also has a boxing ring in one room and weightlifting equipment piled haphazardly in another. It has no clientele, and the staff regard anyone who enters with utmost suspicion. The basement, however, is an extremely advanced and well cared for laboratory and garden, which can produce all sorts of interesting drugs.

The Old Bar Casino
An ugly, run-down old pub with an extremely large basement-system with extravagantly expensive furnishings, which serves as the Wolfpack's second largest casino. It is staffed almost exclusively by utter morons, since the proprietor, Shotgun Steve, likes to surround himself with 'proof' that Secondaries are lesser beings.
The Old Bar Casino was not long ago raided and stripped of valuables by a stormtrooper squad and their pet Prime. It no longer serves as an NSW Base.[/spoiler]
