@Lord Wraith, I'll message what I have after doing some brainstorming about it (and give you the summaries for the Foot, Purple Dragons, and the T.C.R.I.). Don't wanna accidentally spoil things I have somewhat planned out.
Since we're talking about organizations, I'm wondering how Earth Protection Force and Agent Bishop would fit within the story. And since the GDA now exists, would he and other significant characters serve under Cecil? Or would they just serve under S.W.O.R.D. instead?

"I hope we have some time to visit the drop-off site. There's so much stuff I could-"

"You know, some of us are trying to climb."

-easily repair the things that people just throw away, like TVs, phones, laptops, consoles, and other electronics. We might actually find a flat screen for the living room in there."

"Or a Switch! Maybe even a PS5!"

"I won't mind a DVD player." "But we have to assess our surroundings first to make sure it's safe to venture far from home. Remember what Senesi told us-"

"Leo, I'm not in the mood for a lecture when we haven't even gotten up there yet."

"Okay, okay." "I think I can just push it open."

I'm working on my post. Though something's been bugging me that I wanted y'all's opinion about. I'm wondering whether you guys would like to read the prologue as one massive post or five separate posts spread out?
Also while I'm thinking of it:

@Mao Mao@Silverstein, did either of you want the Foot or the Hand included on the list of organizations?

I won't mind if the Foot was included. If you need me to fill out the details, reach out to me. I'm working out an idea of the Hand and Foot relations with Silverstein.
@Lord Wraith What about the claimed character section? Would we need to submit images to you after we've posted? Or is that entirely different?

Heavily inspired by Mirage's City at War arc, their cancelled Gang Wars arc, IDW's early run, and Mutant Mayhem, I want to focus on the street level aspect more so than the sci-fi elements (not that means it's discarded). And, incorporating Silverstein's concept of NYC as a den of organized criminality and corruption, I want both the Purple Dragons and the Foot Clan to be part of the problem. Of course, the solution involves a couple of turtles who were taught ninjutsu by their master/father.

As far as backstory, it remains largely the same as every interpretation: Hamato Yoshi gets exposed to a canister of "ooze" and mutates into a humanoid rat. Four turtles are also exposed, and he takes them in under his watch, calling himself Master Splinter. And in a world that would soon treat them as monsters, they are forced to take refuge in the sewer system of the city. Fifteen years later, the turtles still long to live among humans their age despite Splinter's rhetoric.

While on the surface, inspiring investigative reporter April O'Neil has secured an internship at the Daily Bugle under the guidance of Pulitzer Prize winner Robbie Robertson. Casey Jones, a star hockey player at his high school, dons his goalie mask to protect his neighborhood from the encroaching Purple Dragons as a vigilante. And Keno Andrada struggles to balance maintaining good grades with working at a pizzeria as the world around him rapidly deteriorates.

And that's the gist. I would like to introduce Agent Bishop if I manage to complete my initial arc and slowly bring in the sci-fi element known in the TMNTverse.

I like turtles. As stated before, the starting arc will lean towards street level with a slice of life element as the turtles venture into the surface, do vigilante stuff on the side, and eat pizza on random rooftops after an eventful night. There will be hints of the sci-fi aspect, but it won't be the main focus of this arc. And I will also write about the human characters who will eventually meet the turtles, either by complete accident.

I would like to get in touch with Silverstein to see how the Foot and Purple Dragons would fit into the overall situation in New York City. But besides that, I envision that the gang has a heavy presence in the East Village and Lower East Side. While the clan would already be known in the underworld as feared and ruthless assassins across East Asia long before they established a foothold in the United States. It would also be interesting to see what the relationship dynamics would be like with The Hand.

Collabs would be limited to characters that reside in NYC, given it won't make too much sense for the turtles to go on a cross-country trip, and I'm a busser for a pizzeria, funny enough. Still, I won't mind them meeting up with the daredevils or any spiders that are roaming around the city.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES
NEW YORK CITY
TURTLE LAIR

After the brief, somewhat casual meditation, Mikey and Leo arrived in the living room to find their brothers on the tattered couch, with the first-aid kit laid out on the coffee table. Donnie was just finishing bandaging Raph's other hand while talking his ear off about ways to reduce the swelling. Mikey had anticipated a straightforward check-up, one in which his brother's hands would be swiftly examined and wrapped up before he could get Leo for the party. But it became apparent that the injury was more serious than he had assumed. And Leo, ever the overbearing turtle, was already eager to demand answers before Mikey could say something.
 
"What happened to your hands?!" he barked, voice tinged with frustration more so than concern.

Raph gazed at his hands, resting idly on a throw pillow, and shrugged. "I had them wrapped."

"Yeah, no duh, Raph," Leo pinched the bridge of his nose and let out an exasperated sigh, "but why?"

"Wouldn't you like to know." Raph retorted, meeting Leo's gaze directly as he spoke. At that moment, Mikey sensed the familiar tension brewing between his brothers, a prelude to yet another impending petty argument. It was a weekly spectacle that had become nothing more than a nuisance, played out almost the same tiresome way every time. One would get irritated by the other, usually over training routines or after sparring, before insults are hurled back and forth for quite a bit. And then, it would inevitably fizzle out, and both of them retreated to their rooms to cool off. That was what should've occurred. Instead, Leo inhaled deeply and shifted his attention over to Donnie, determined to get to the bottom of things.

"Donnie," Leo began, casting a glare at him, "what happened?"

Mikey immediately recognized his brother's go-to tactic: intimidate to interrogate. Leo loved to play this card whenever he suspected his brothers were hiding something from him—or worse, from Sensei. And while it wasn't necessarily a horrible approach, the execution was, as always, painfully cringe. Raph burst into uncontrollable laughter the first time Leo tried to use it, and since then, outright dismissed any subsequent attempts. As for Mikey, the turtle simply charmed himself way out of trouble and slipped back into his brother's good graces. But when it came to Donnie, his sensitive nature made him easily susceptible to Leo's intense scrutiny.

Mikey knew it was time to step in.

"Leo, bro, ease up—at least until after the party," Mikey chimed in, his voice playful to lighten the mood. "The food's gonna get cold."

Leo's glare softened as if he were weighing the request. Usually, it would've been more difficult to make him change his mind on something he's dead set on doing. But then, after a moment, he sighed and stepped back from his brothers. Leo folded on the spot. "Sorry," he said somberly, directed more so toward Donnie than Raph. Mikey instinctively wanted to ease his brother's concerns

"If it helps, he didn't break his hands—the knuckles are bruised. He just has to apply ice every few hours and keep them elevated for a few days." That was his version of reassurance.

"And I'm sure Senesi won't let me sit on the sidelines. He'll probably make me meditate or read up on Bubishi again," Raph rolled his eyes as he got up from the couch. And that was going to be the best he was willing to provide.

"He better." Leo. "Now, I want to see what culinary you put together this time around."

Hey
