|~| Fight For a City's Soul |~|

When the world becomes corrupted, and the forces the people once turned to for salvation no longer exist. Its the will of those who are brave enough to take a stand and turn the tides of fate,...




Fight for a City's Soul is a bounty hunter Role-play of sorts. It takes place in a fairly new city, where the Rich and Famous have used there fame and fortune to pretty much take over. They've become corrupt, and have corrupted the rest of the city, right down to the police. So now the under dog,.. The "normal people" have decided to rise up, and have placed bounties on these higher up people.

Then you also have the third party involved. In any large city you're gonna have gang activity and the like. So while The citizens are trying to destroy the corrupt higher ups,.. You've also got the "Mafias and gangs " to worry about who are trying to make there stand and take over.

In simple Here's what the actual story looks like, it explains it better in a sense



Always Open ~ Bounty Hunter Role-play ~


.<~* Story Begins *~>.




There was once a day That Zanji was a fair city. It was a busilling, 24/7 awake metropolis. It was said to be the best place to live. All the up and coming people where there. Stardom and fame swept over their lives and hearts. The city seemed to shine like a new cut diamond, it seemed perfect. Yet with all things that go up, they must come down. This place did that very thing.

To some it felt as if it happened over night. Like they blinked and within that moment, that split of a second everything changed. In all actuality, it was a series of events that took the city to this point.. No one back then understood the sheer power those events had, but they all realized it now. As they looked at their once beautiful city and how it lost its luster. The high rise, polish steal building now seemed rusted away. Their sparkling windows that seemed like jewels in the sun now were dingy, cracked and depressing.

The whole reason behind this transformation was the fact the city became corrupt. All the rich and Famous paid there way through everything. If they wanted anything it seemed they only needed to pay the price. At first it started off small, but then word leaked that the adored male actor Vincent Nox had murdered his wife. The cities media told another story, but the truth was in the underground news. Which told the story about how the man killed his wife in cold blood, and being one of the richest people in the city. All he had to do was flash some cash, and it turned into a suicide.

This seemed to turn into a pattern of behavior as slowly Vincent Nox rose to power in the city. In a decades time he practically owned the police department. A few of his fellow famous friends caught on, and together the city became there personal playground. Over time there rule took the spark from this place and turned it into something dark. Now money switched hands so often it gave way to crime becoming the order. This lead to the common people turning to a new breed of enforcement. Which to many brought hope, and to others seemed to just be another hand of the darkness, either way they were called Bounty Hunters.

Thats where this story starts, in the multi leveled city. A darkness has fallen, and the lower level were the common man lives has a filth that sticks to everything like a fog. Trash and drug paraphernalia litters the streets, and for many children, it makes there neighborhoods unsafe to play in. The gangs which have sprung up in this time of disorder cause utter chaos with riots, and drive byes. The police can't be counted on, for most of this violent acts are apart of a larger scheme devised by the real ones in charge.
To many things have became so dark, there doesn't even seem to be a light at the end of this tunnel. Not even a glimmer of hope in the distant.

The whole city doesn't look like this, the areas that many of the residents call the middle ground still looks like a busy city. Many shops line the streets, along with pubs and fancy restaurants. Yet if one pays attention they can see how the corruption effects this part of town. Every once in a while an establishment will get trashed, from not paying the protection fee. Men come in and out of restaurants, armed with hand guns. They can be seen whispering to employees of the establishments, as they strong arm there way into getting whatever there hearts desire.

Yet what some would call the most dangerous part of the city, would be the upper class areas. This is were the source of all the corruption lies. Everything in this area is very high price and fancy. The houses look as if they've pulled out all the stops. Its the last place in the city that still shines like how the city once did. But everything is watched, and no one can be trusted. This is where all the commands are made, and were the most dangerous people sleep. Its a scare place, if one doesn't understand its culture.

The only real hand of justice in this upside down world are a group called bounty hunters. Most are the unseen enforcements of order, as they are hired on by the last few good cops this city has. Others work for the common man, to keep the innocent safe. Yet like all things, since they are paid on a salary by a hirer, some of these bounty hunters lust more from the cash than the greater good. Which leads to confusion about how great these hunters truly are. But this is where the city has found itself.

Name: Flann Neuman
Age: 18
Gender: Male
equipment: pocket knives (he’s always got some on him) and hand guns
Alignment: Mafia Leader
personality: Flann is a rather interesting kid though still fairly young to be a mafia leader he’s developed well into the roll. Flann really cares about his looks he refuses to dress the part of a mafia boss and dresses as he feels. Flann is known for being rather unorthodox with his methods of getting things done. Flann can be friendly but he may have mood swings which make him act ridiculous and insane.
Appearance: Flann has messy blonde hair and light brown eyes. Flann likes wearing dark shades of purple and blue but he also loves wearing black and white. Flann’s clothes are usually leather and fairly tight with lots of chains. Flann has many piercing’s.
History: Flann’s father was the leader of a group of Mafioso who would help raise Flann since Flann’s mother left his father when he was still only a baby. Flann’s father ended up being killed in a shooting when Flann was still 17 years old and he was offered the position of his father. Flann disagreed and argued with them until they came to an agreement, Flann can run the mafia the way he wants and dress the way he wants and he would guarantee to be their leader as long as he lived. Flann’s family’s name had a lot of influence in this town which is why they were so desperate to keep him just by having him as their leader it made them very famous.
