    This thread will follow the story of two youngsters growing up on Bridge St. as they develop, individually and within their friendship. ((hope you enjoy the read - open to feedback)) Born and raised in East Vinewood, Steven grew up with his parents Jamar & Kendis Dixon. His early childhood was not particularly happy, but not miserable either. Steven always felt as though they just "existed"; Nothing special about himself nor his family. Unable to get work with a good wage, Jamar spent many hours of overtime working hard to financially support the family. Meanwhile, his Mother, a prescription drug abuser, never had the mental surplus to deal with Steven, leaving him to fend for himself most of the time. As a result of the lack of attention, Steven began suppressing his feelings, and acting out in the classroom. Nowadays he spends most of his time watching boxing, browsing FB or roaming the streets of East Vinewood with his friend. His desire to become someone rather than just to exist and survive remains. Date of Birth: 5th August 2004 Nationality: American Heritage: African American Height: 5'7 Weight: 150lbs Prominent Features: Large nose Hobbies: Boxing, BMX, social media Felix was born to Miguel & Leticia Urdaneta, two Venezuelan nationals seeking asylum in the city of Los Santos. The couple, after going through the difficult immigration process, settled in a small apartment on Bridge St in search for a better life, giving birth to their first and only child a few years afterwards. The financial burden that came with the infant was overwhelming, but they remained a tight-knit family, often sacrificing the clothes off their back to ensure Felix was cared for, and working many hours doing any job they could get. Felix was a timid child, and was often the easy target to bullies, something that continued throughout the majority of elementary school. Despite this, he always had a kind home to return to, spending a lot of his time inside and entertaining himself with YouTube and carpet boarding on a deck with no wheels that he found in the trash on the way home one day. 2014 was the year this changed. Whilst he was at school, a car crash occurred that hospitalised both of his parents. Leticia sadly passed away only hours later from the injuries, whilst Miguel recovered. However, the recovery was only physical, the guilt, pain and stress gradually developing into an alcohol and gambling addiction, something that would put a strain on the household's finances as well as the relationship with his son. Nowadays, Felix spends most of his time trying to stay away from home, enjoying the park and roaming the streets with his friend, the anxiety of feeling as though he can't depend on his Father to survive weighing on his shoulders more each day. Date of birth: 20th October 2004 Nationality: American Heritage: Venezuelan Height: 5'6 Weight: 124lbs Prominent Features: Prone to spots, two small scars on right side of jaw Hobbies: Skateboarding, soccer, BMX riding, reading (non-fiction)
  2. La Puente - The Bridgetown Gentlemen La Puente was one of those many so-called hicks towns that where out there in the boonies. Back then the area was filled with muddy river beds, and rail road tracks criss-crossed the flat hills topography of the East Los Valley. Packed-dirt sidewalks were the norm in many of its neighborhood streets. It was a stereotypical Mexican place where you could fence in your property, raise chickens or goats, and hunt racoons or roadrunners just a short distance from the roads and homes nearby; the place was like country living. After WWII, La Puente became a boom town. The place was prime marketing land for the realty companies which came in and divided up everything into "tracts" and laid it all out into "grids" on the map. So many families from LS and elsewhere moved to the East Vinewood area in the 1950's that for a time the place was called "kidsville," because there where just so many little folks on its streets; kids ruled; they owned the streets. Architecturally and economically, the La Puente area went through intense developments and grew so much during the 1950's. La Puente for a time was the classical white urban area of the leave it to beaver kind of epoch. But just like its twisted name of "LA" instead of "EL," it also had another story brewing under its topside look. White on the outside, Brown on the inside. Chicanos who came in droves during the 1920s, 30s, and by the 1950s, the time when the homes and freeway construction were taking place, Chicanos made La Puente their home. And so first the Pa'Chucos put in together as the Old Town Puente Gents, and then in later years, they went on to generate the Puente 13 Tinflanes in the 1950's. Crime has always existed in East Vinewood & Mirror Park, and it continues to effect the civilians living in the area on a daily basis. The area has been very heavily competitive in the tagger scene, with there being upwards of $25,000 in damage on public and private property during 2019. Gang members of La Puente 13 have made an abundance of noise in the area, with there being multiple occurrences of drug trafficking and identity theft which were investigated and documented thoroughly. Throughout the lifespan of P13, they were known to follow through and put in work for the Mexican Mafia in which led to an abundance of crime to arise, crimes such as murder, extortion, and drug and arm trafficking wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Varrio Puente 13 La Puente 13 had a total membership of 3,000 foot soldiers at one point, with a total of 12 different cliques operating in different areas of East Vinewood & Mirror Park. Although, it's membership has taken a toll due to the nature of multiple cliques expanding and becoming their own neighborhood, first of which to ever do it was; Happy Homes Puente. Although there's an agreement in place that all cliques which were once part of Varrio Puente 13 continue to represent it on the yard. Varrio Puente has had many indictments thrown at them which had a large number of their foot soldiers arrested for racketeering, being part of its methamphetamine distribution ring, fraud and identity theft. Puente 13 has became smaller and smaller over the years, and currently the most active cliques reside on Bridge Street & Mirror Park, identifying themselves as the Parkside Los Gangsteros (PLGS), and the Little Happy Homes (LHH). They have also been known to consume local tagger bangers and tagger crews by dragging them into the dope game, and convincing them to start representing the neighborhood in order to become part of a bigger organisation to become a more threatening to their enemy crews.
  3. Name: Edgar Certillo Age: 16 Birthplace: Pillbox Hospital Family: Auntie (Alive), Mom (Deceased), Dad (Unknown) Backstory: Edgar was born and raised in East Vinewood on Bridge Street. From a young age, Edgar was exposed to a lot of crime, growing up in an area riddled with gangs and gang members, but his mother insisted on him going to school as he tried his best to stay away from this life. Since the first grade of middle school, Edgar met one of his closest friends, later becoming his best friend. As they grew up, both of them were staying away from known gang members, which made them the subject of a lot of bullying, especially Edgar. The other peers at school looked at gang banging as a cool hobby, not knowing the problems this life comes with or what drove you to pursue this kind of lifestyle. As Edgar grew up, the bullying only intensified as his best friend started to hang out around more popular kids, leaving Edgar without any friends. It didn't take a long time until Marcus (Edgar's best friend) started to hang around known gang members, even being put on into a rival gang, 18th Street. Edgar didn't really care about Marcus being affiliated to a different neighborhood as he didn't gang bang, but as one year passes Marcus is the subject of a drive-by shooting, leaving him paralyzed. His gang member homies stopped hanging around him as they didn't tolerate handicapped people around them so Edgar and Marcus got close again. Soon the rival gang started to ridicule Marcus for being left handicapped, bringing a lot of shame to the 18th Street gang. This led to Marcus being gunned down as he was walking back home one day. The news made Edgar depressed as he had to bury his day one homie. One year passes as Edgar and his mother are driving towards one of their favorite fast food places, as a reward for Edgar's good grades. The car is involved in a deadly accident that left his mother dead and left Edgar with a hearing problem, making him very sensitive to loud noises. This event made Edgar consider his life as he dropped out of high school, turning his back to a normal education and diving straight into gang life. Since then Edgar has been seen hanging out with known gang members of the El Monte Flores gang. Notable Details about Edgar Certillo: I. Risky is a careless human being, also a loner.II. Edgar is known for having a hearing problem, but he rarely mentions it and tries to ignore it as much as he can.III. Edgar would have his hair braided, and has never been seen without that hairstyle as he has been pressed multiple time over him being a hispanic with a haircut like this. IV. Risky has been known for putting in work for his gang, as he has recently been posting on Instagram about being affiliated and he would usually use the platform to diss/clown his rival gang members.

  4. This thread will follow the the development and characterisation of Eduardo Pintos Carret, a youthful resident of Bridge Street as the encounters the strong presence of the infamous El Monte Flores gang. I. Origins Eduardo Felipe Pintos Carreto was born in Guadalajara Mexico. He lived in La Estancia with his mother, grandmother aunt and three nephews. La Estancia, a leafy suburb of the Mexican city of Guadalajara. At the time the neighborhood was dominated by gangs such as Florencia 13. The women who raised Eduardo often forbid him to go outside, shielding him from the gang activity seen on the streets of Guadalajara. Eduardo never realized the existence of any of these gangs in the early years of his life. II. A better life After years of struggle to make ends meet, Eduardo's mother got an opportunity presented to immigrate to the United States of America. When Eduardo was 9 years old his mother was granted a work visa to reside in the state of Arizona. Eduardo didn't want to leave his family members and friends behind, but he had no choice. His mother explained to him that they were on their way to a better life in a country that's more safe which provides more opportunities for their future. They settled in Phoenix Arizona, it didn't take long for Eduardo to feel at home as he easily met new friends, mostly Mexican immigrant kids who also spoke Spanish. After 8 months of living in the States, Eduardo's mother could see the end of her visa getting closer. She met an American male called Henry who often visited them and helped them financially. It didn't take long before Henry married Eduardo's mother, allowing her to request a greencard for her and her son. III. Los Santos After 5 years of marriage the financial situation of Henry changed, he lost his job and started drinking more. The relationship with Eduardo's mother became more abusive as he started prohibiting her and her son from going out or doing daily stuff. He would lock them in their home, beating them over minor or imaginary problems. Eduardo, who was 15 at the time, would often sneak out the house to smoke marijuana with friends and to escape from the reality at home. He would start shoplifting to get cash. When Eduardo turned 17 he was already indulging in occasional home invasions, breaking into cars and shoplifting. When one of the store owners in their neighborhood caught Eduardo he didn't call the police. He brought Eduardo to his parents, because he taught that'd have a better effect on him. Eduardo got beat so severely by his stepdad that his mother decided to leave the house the next day and move out, she couldn't take it anymore. They ended up in a small apartment on Bridge Street, Los Santos. IV. A better life 2.0 Having left and divorced her husband, Eduardo's mother took a nanny job in Los Santos. She'd be away from home most of the time, trying to make ends meet. Eduardo on the other hand was going to high school, where he got good grades, but eventually got kicked out for breaking into lockers. He took a job at a pizza delivery, but his stint at the pizzeria was short lived as the owner caught him smoking weed in between deliveries. He started hanging around on Bridge Street where he met a local named Risky. Eduardo who's then 19 explained his situation to the local teen. He offered help by giving Eduardo cocaine which he was supposed to sell for him. Eduardo didn't think twice and saw this as an opportunity. He got quickly introduced to other local teens who called themselves El Monte Flores. Eduardo is a confident, smart, tall boy, which allowed him to quickly make friends with the others. He quickly learned they were all in similar positions as he was, such as a local named Alonso. Alonso baptized Eduardo to Tarzan, due to his big thick curls. V. Becoming Tarzan Not long after dropping out of high school, Tarzan was getting groomed by the local El Monte Flores gang. He started to get close with locals who would pursue him into doing illegal activities with them. Tarzan's mothers final situation was as bad as ever, which resulted in Tarzan not having to think twice before committing crimes. It started with petty theft, going around stores shoplifting whatever they could get their hands on. Tarzan also quickly became familiar with gang violence, as he figured out when they came face to face with the Piru's. Tarzan was involved in a brawl in a so called Piru neighborhood a few blocks away. Not long into the fight several police cars pulled up to the scene, which led into a chase on foot with Tarzan and the officers. It didn't take long before the officers caught him on his flip flops. The officers figured Tarzan had a clean record and released him to walk home after a short interrogation. Having kept his mouth shut he showed the local gang members and affiliates he was down for the cause. Tarzan got introduced to Wicked, the shot caller of El Monte Flores. He took Tarzan shopping, paying for his whole outfit. Something that definitely impressed Tarzan, he saw right there what he wanted to become. VI. Gaining respect After Tarzan got familiar with the gang culture, he started to get more deeply involved in crime. Mainly in car theft and drug dealing, in which he showed his true criminal qualities. Tarzan was a quick learner, he realized that his actions would only gain him money and respect from the gang. His activities didn't go unnoticed as gang leader Wicked decided that Tarzan was going to have to bring in money for the gang now. A weekly tax of $2,000 became Tarzan's objective, which made him get only deeper involved in criminal activities. Tarzan witnessed first hand that the gang life could be a short lived one. He was taken on a robbery where he saw one of his friends die in front of his eyes. One day Tarzan was sitting in a stolen car by himself when suddenly a gang member named Scrappy jumped in his car. He convinced Tarzan to smuggle some contents into the TTCF jail, promising him to become an official member of the gang after he comes back. Something they'd call getting put on. VII. Gaining respect 2.0 Tarzan made sure he got arrested on a vandalism charge, having cocaine and a Nokia phone inside him. He was told to look for a person named Quatro. Not long after Tarzan got introduced his cell, a bald hispanic male clad in several gang affiliated tattoo's knocked on his window. He introduced himself to Tarzan and made sure his paperwork got checked out by a fellow Sureño gang member. Tarzan got introduced to Quatro after his paperwork proved he wasn't a snitch. He had successfully smuggled in some valuable contents for the gang. After getting out of prison Tarzan came home, only to find out half of the gang was arrested. Tarzan was disappointed, because it meant he wasn't going to get jumped in any time soon. However it didn't hold him back from getting right back into the criminal life again, stealing cars and dealing drugs. He was going to make sure he'd have enough money for the top of the gang pyramid to welcome them home with a nice sum of cash. VIII. The demise of Tarzan Having successfully set up a car theft operation with Jesus and Alonso Ramirez, Tarzan's confidence grew. He felt he had to keep it up so that he would become official in no-time. He'd be often seen in flashy stolen sports cars. On a day he got asked by a gang member named Swifty to smuggle in a phone back into the prison. Tarzan disagreed and pleaded that he was more valuable on the street making money, and suggested they should send a different local. Swifty wasn't taking no for an answer and decided to put a gun to Tarzan's head, pursuing him aggressively to follow his orders. Tarzan was perplexed by Swifty's actions, but still disagreed, not having much respect for Swifty. He stood his ground, slapping his pistol away and leaving the area and his last respect for Swifty behind. IX. The demise of Tarzan 2.0 Looney, a high ranked EMF member took over while most of the gang was in jail. He quickly got word of what happened through Swifty. While Tarzan kept his mouth shut about the incident, Swifty had been telling Looney everything that happened. Looney quickly acted by telling Tarzan wasn't welcome in the hood anymore and was told not to come back until he showed respect. Tarzan saw Swifty's actions as betrayal and snitching, as he took their dispute higher up. Tarzan was fuming and decided to steal a car to calm himself down, something that became so usual for him now. He stole a car and found that there were several beers and vodka bottles on the backseat. Tarzan didn't think twice and decided to drink his problems away, which only made his decision making worse. He picked his friends up, ranting about how he was going to kill Swifty and skip town. His friends calmed him down and advised him to go plead his case with Looney. X. Descansa en paz Eduardo Pintos Carreto 🕯️ Eduardo's meeting with Looney didn't go as expected, not long into his explanation het got cut off by Looney. He would go back and forth with the temporary shot caller, forgetting to show respect. His friends occasionally would chime in, in attempts to solve the issue and protect Tarzan from his own deeds. It only led to them having to beat up Tarzan by order of Looney. His own friends beat him up, which made Tarzan realize this was all for nothing. In a split second he shifted his positive thoughts into negative ones, seeing how he was betrayed, mislead and abused in his eyes. As Tarzan limped back to the stolen sports car, Looney told him he would make sure that Tarzan would never become an official member of the gang. Tarzan quickly snapped back that he wouldn't want to be associated with snitches anyway. His last remark caused Looney to fire several bullets into Eduardo, who there died on the spot.
  5. YOU PLAY, YOU PAY Daniel Parada Daniel Parada was born into a broken home, with his father incarcerated for 2x Second Degree murder, and his divorced mother addicted to heroin. At a young age, Daniel was forced into a parental role, taking care of his younger sister while his mother neglected them both. Daniel often looked to his father for guidance, frequenting visits at the Bolingbroke State Penitentiary. Whilst juggling between academics and family, Daniel found himself a sense of power within the controlling El Monte Flores gang, where he racked "Spider" as his placa due to his lanky legs. Over the next few years of Daniel's life, he made the set a priority over education, often bunking classes and eventually flunking out of high school in his last year. The income Daniel had received throughout his years within the set had given him enough money to move out of his mother's house and into his own, partly accompanied by his sister who had moved between homes often. On the night of 21 April 20XX, Daniel and a a homie of his had decided that the conditions were suitable for them to hit a lick on a random female, who had turned out to be an off-duty police officer. After flunking the robbery, the duo had took to running, sprinting through the alleys of Bridge Street, before turning a corner and into a cruiser. They were both shortly detained and later arrested, serving Daniel with 1x Armed Robbery, 1x Possession of an illegal firearm and 1x Resisting Arrest. During his stay at the Correctional Facility, Daniel had provided his camaradas with poorly-designed tattoos, created by a makeshift tattoo machine. Daniel was able to pursue his creative interests, while simultaneously making a profit via commissary. Not only did he focus on tattoos, he had also focused much of his attention on programming, increasing his muscle mass. Maya Parada Maya Parada, younger sister to Daniel, shared the same upbringing as her older brother. Her father being incarcerated and her mother would neglect the pair, choosing to feed her addiction rather than caring for her children. This would feed into Daniel ending up being her only parental figure, as he looked after her. Though, Maya was born and raised on Bridge Street. This would influence her drastically, despite her brother attempting to keep her away from the local gang as best as he could. She would be pushed by her older brother to focus on her academics, and stay away from the gang lifestyle, though her personal desires would be the opposite of what her brother wished. Looking up to him, she would pick up some of his creative side, though opting to display this talent through the use of a spray can rather than a tattoo needle. Taking great care in her artwork, she would practice designs at home, refining her craft.
