Throughout the 1980s Michaels ran shakedowns throughout eastern Massachusetts, e.g., extortion, truck hijackings, and arms trafficking. State and federal agencies were repeatedly stymied in their attempts to build cases against Michaels and his inner circle. To avoid charges he used bribes and killings of authorities, and estimated 600 policemen dying because of him. Despite these, he cultivated a Robin Hood persona amongst regular people, especially the poor, financing the construction of many hospitals and sports facilities in the outskirts of the city. Michaels’ followers are based around the world. His criminal outreach is not limited by age or by world region; he is especially popular amongst troubled youth who speak out against authority by following his example. They are too naïve, however, to know what they are getting into. One tight-knit group of teenagers goes too far in disturbing public peace and, when they are taken into custody and need his help, he reluctantly helps release them after learning their contribution to his reign. Michaels promptly keeps these kids under his wing in exchange for their helping hands. He was just as naïve as them in making that decision. Michaels made the mistake of giving one teenager, Sinéad, the task of transporting $15,000 worth of drugs across the country. Whether she was caught or crashed and lost it all, the other teenagers never found out - what was more important was the fact that Sinéad disappeared after being given her task and, presumably, never finishing it. Because of their affiliation with her, the rest of the teenagers were under fire. With not only his fanatics chasing after them but Michaels himself, these renegades found themselves on the run to save their own lives. Unfortunately, just fleeing to another part of America was not enough. Now, they’ve taken to travelling the globe, in the hope that - soon - they’ll get this criminal underworld off their tail and put their past behind them.

[*] One character allowance, as the player needs to focus their energy on one specifically. [*] Any mental illness, life situation, or other personal complications must be portrayed realistically. If you are unable to do so, either redact that part of your character entirely or seek other members’ help. [*] I’m putting this pointless filler here to make it look as if there’s a rule here, when, actually, I’m telling you to put your best twenty one pilots meme picture in the PM when you send the CS to me. Not actually in the CS, just under the hider. I don’t want the contents of the CS giving it away, either. [*] Also, building on that last point, PM the GM your CS. If you don’t, then it’s an instant denial to the roleplay. No second chances. We're looking for roleplayers that read the rules, not just skip to the end. [*] To make absolutely sure that your character isn’t a Mary/Gary Sue, consider taking [url=http://www.springhole.net/writing/marysue.htm]this test[/url] or just know the guidelines of non-Mary Sue/Gary Sue characters. [*] If romance ascends into anything heavier, ensure that nothing specifically NSFW is written - try to just make implications, if anything. Remember that these are teenagers. [*] RPG rules apply. (PG-13/12A romance, violence; take all issues and concerns to PM rather than having conflict in the OOC). [*] The GM ([the fabulously British] Wade Wilson) has final say in all matters - respect any decision she makes.[/list][/indent] [sup][img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/b3RmLjQ4LjAwMDAwMC5ZMmhoY21GamRHVnlJSE5vWldWMC4wAAAA/prominder.regular.png[/img][/sup] [indent][indent][code][hider=FIRSTNAME][center][h3][color=?]FIRSTNAME "CODENAME" LASTNAME[/color][/h3] [img]FACECLAIM REQUIRED[/img] [sup][url=SONG]THEME 1[/url] • [url=SONG]THEME 2[/url] • [url=SONG]THEME 3[/url][/sup][/center] [hr.] [color=?][b]NAME [i]}}[/i][/b][/color] [color=?][b]CODENAME [i]}}[/i][/b][/color] Play off of a character quirk or specialty, or just use a nick from their given name.
