Editing Gangwars Story (section)

== Role ==

You and the other players are all gang members. You can define what kind of gang you will be- a group of suburban kids beating the crap out of others? Or a neighborhood lashed by fate and formed into a new family? However you may define yourself and whatever situation you may be in - you are part of a modern tribe. 

At the start, you will be at the bottom of the tribe: a new or young member that is trying to gain in rank and esteem. Over time, you might get to the top of the tribe, even ruling it yourself, or start new tribes. You might even become a cult leader, a tribal warlord or rise (back) to the ranks of citizens living in a nice home with your family.

The gangwars assume that the PCs are part of a gang (or even a very small gang themselves) that has to fight "the rest of the world" to ensure its survival. With drugs, weapons, magic and cyberware circulating in the streets freely, this makes for an interesting starting point. Will you try to gain some insight into magic to assume power as fast as possible - at the same time putting you and others to very high risk? Or will you try to rob and pressure others for money? Maybe you'll even chop people to sell their parts off or sit in someones backroom for a cyber-implant? The multitude of approaches from a basic starting point can turn this setting into anything from Buffy to Special Unit 2 to Johnny Mnemonic to Ghost in the Shell.
