DECKER-SIDE 23 The Wah Ching or Dub C are an infamous gang comprised of mostly, but not exclusive, Chinese-Americans with sets all over San Andreas. This gang was formed in San Fierro in the 1960s, as a way to make money from the gambling dens, drug sales, and illegal fireworks selling, and as a way to safeguard and act as the muscle for the local tongs. The Dubs quickly outgrew these Tongs and a conflict ensued - leaving San Fierro strongly in the Tong's hands and sending Wah Ching down to San Andreas, where they split into different sets, often called sides, this is around the time they adopted and integrated into the gang culture of the area, adopting hand signs, their fashion, lingo, monikers and gang colors. In the late 90s, due to the gang being hit with a RICO and due to law enforcement pressure, many of the Wah Ching sides broke from the original hierarchy of the gang, leading the organization to be much more independent from set to set. Still, all these sides claimed Dub C's and got along with each other without any trouble. Nowadays, Wah Ching has reorganized itself into doing /mostly/ organized crime, although certain sub-sets still act as other unorganized gangs would. The different sides are still split and each answer to their respective dai lo. In recent history, an Asian gang out of the north side of Koreatown has decided to align itself under the Wah Ching. The gang, known as Decker-Side 213, had been a clique consisting of Chinese and Vietnamese youth hailing from Little Seoul, often guided by their dai lo's or big brothers, Bartholomew Chang and Lenny Kwan, but also by elusive figures in the Suey Sing Association such as David Wu, Sophie Wu, Ronald Ho, and Kevin Heoi. This clique's history in their section was riddled with violence, mostly aimed towards the other gangs that called Koreatown their home, and with many crimes, such as home break-ins, car-jacks, drug dealing, arms trafficking, and a myriad of robberies, be it aimed towards passerby's in the streets or towards stores and shops. In late 2022, following the arrest of Bartholomew Chang and Lenny Kwan, the gang went into disarray. Members hid low, fled the town, or simply retired and gave up on a life of crime. This wave of gangsters laying low, skipping Los Santos, or retiring didn't just happen to the clique under Chang and Kwan. Many if not all of the criminal-affiliated figures of the Suey Sing Association - the upper-echelon of this organization, with great connections across the city and even outside of the country - decided it was time to retire from a lifetime of crime, opting to live the rest of their lives with the money they had gathered over their life. This left two hatchet men around to guide the by-now fledgling group, Julian Lang and Daniel Ma, as the oldest members left in the gang, and as the two highest in the hierarchy. Without key tong figures to guide them, many of the once mandatory traditions were now gone, further molding the group into something of its own. Through their contacts and respect in the streets, the two got into long negotiations with a prestigious Wah Ching member, leading them and those who follow them to be blessed into the gang. A new generation of Decker-Side gangsters came to be from the previous one's reign—unleashed from the traditional cultural expectations of their predecessors, a nominal third-in-command was chosen by the Dai Dai Lo and the Dai Lo to form the organization's leadership: Leilani Kwon as a Dà Jiě. Kwon's blessing into the gang came as one of the first decisive approaches to the entire operation. With the three at the head of the gang, what was once an organized crime outfit fell much closer to what a typical Mexican or African-American gang acted like, with elements of organized crime sprinkled across the organization, given the nominal trio's money-making and profit-oriented background. Decker-Side 23 has been establishing its foothold on the West Side of Los Santos under newfound leadership in recent years. Whilst the gang is one of the many facets of a century-long criminal enterprise, the Wah Ching, is considered one of the most prolific West Side street gangs along with Terror Town 13, W/S Longos 13, Crazy Riders 13, etc., and the only significant gang within the vast community of Little Seoul. By virtue, DS23 aligning itself with Wah Ching has seen it carry life-long conflict with various local segments of Asian Boyz, Sons of Samoa, and others. The gang's origins and its untraditional ways make it stand out as one of the most noteworthy subsets of Wah Ching within Southern San Andreas, and their rooted ties within a primarily Hispanic community have led it to adopt various cultural and lifestyle choices. Contrary to popular belief, Decker-Side 23's main motivator continues to be participating in various illicit money-making ventures. Its adoption of the color red within common street gang denominators and regalia (red clothing, rags, tagging of choice) is often misunderstood as pledged allegiance to Bloods or similar sets— in reality, red is symbolic of good fortune, luck, vitality, celebration, and prosperity in Chinese culture. The gang's rapid ascension to power has inhibited law enforcement intrusion within the community. The LSSD OSSB Operation Chinese New Year of 2023 aimed to be a joint intelligence-gathering effort of various local law enforcement entities to gather intelligence on the gang itself and its power structure. Despite the operation's intention, the gang's approach of putting its community first has seen all efforts be mostly unfruitful. The city at large has condemned the LSSD's actions within the community of Little Seoul and numerous litigation efforts were put forth against the Department and its Operation Safe Streets Bureau's corrupt conduct of profiling and police brutality, as well as its baseless and illegal addition of unaffiliated civilians to gang databases. Local authorities recognize Decker-Side 23 by its first, decade-old iteration of the original clique, Decker-Side 213, and name it a hybrid criminal syndicate. Penetrating the gang has traditionally been difficult for area law enforcement agencies because it is a tight-knit community that does not welcome unfamiliar faces. The Dubs have come to learn law enforcement's routine tactics to deter law enforcement and have since sought to re-form and absorb various local cliques to spread its reach. As such, Chinos Chasin Paper (CCP), Villains Ca$hin Out (VCO), and Ginger Street Boys (GSB) comprise Decker-Side 23's presence on the streets. Nowadays, different divisions of labor control various facets of the established criminal enterprise, ranging from arms trafficking, narcotics distribution, international car theft/export rings, and several counterfeit operations. Its presence in the West Side as an organized street gang is one of its many facets, considering the Wah Ching is characterized as “an international criminal cartel” by the United States Department of Justice Criminal Division since 1988. OOC INFORMATION Decker-Side (DS-23) portrays a fictional Wah Ching set within the community of Little Seoul. Recruitment is fully done In Character, and we are committed to helping prospective members with creating an accurate character if necessary. We are an invite-only faction—contact leadership to show interest in becoming involved. Aspiring characters should be working-class youth in their teenage years (no older than 16) who reside in or around Little Seoul of Chinese or Vietnamese descent, though we accept other Southeast Asian ethnicities (Filipino, Cambodian, etc.) on a case-by-case basis. An understanding of West LS gang portrayal & long-term character development is promoted. Expecting to be spoonfed will lead to a short tenure. Reach out to princecane. for anything concept-related.

BROWN RIDERS KREW / BROWN RAISED KREW / BURNING RANKERS KONSTANTLY The Westside Brown Riders Krew (WS BRK), also known as the Brown Raised Krew and Burning Rankers Konstantly, is a small graffiti crew located in West Los Santos. They are relatively new, having been formed in early 2019 by a small group of thuggish graffiti artists. The crew is recognized for their "gangster" graffiti style, often adopting techniques from nearby gangs. While they have not yet made significant moves against local gangs, the Brown Riders Krew is known for being aggressive towards other graffiti crews, particularly the So Crazy Klan (SCK), Death 2 Society (D2S), Blazed Out Criminals Krew (BOCK), and the Sureño gang 18th Street, with whom they have a minor conflict due to their support for the So Crazy Klan. Although this feud with the 18th Street has not escalated into full-blown violence, it has led the Brown Riders Krew to align themselves with the Mara Salvatrucha 13 (MS-13), particularly fostering friendly relations with the Krazy Town Locos (KTLS) clique, from whom they share territory. Since its inception, there have been rumours in Little Seoul and nearby West Los neighbourhoods suggesting that MS-13 uses the Brown Riders Krew as a recruitment pool, labelling them as a potential future MS clique. However, this claim is largely unverified and denied by many of the crew members, who pride themselves on their independence. Speculations about how BRK's feuds originated range from personal disputes over "slash outs" to tales involving girls, money, and drugs. However, given BRK's territorial nature within the graffiti scene, it is more likely that their conflicts with SCK, D2S, and BOC arose from graffiti rivalries and occasional fights rather than the more sensational stories told by outsiders. Despite their confrontations, the BRK tagger crew has generally maintained a non-violent stance, staying within the realm of graffiti artists rather than crossing into gang violence. While they may be perceived as thuggish troublemakers, the general population of Little Seoul and the greater West Los Santos area typically view them as harmless. The BRK crew primarily consists of thuggish teenagers of Central American and Mexican descent, with many members hailing from Central American countries. While the crew includes individuals from other Latin American backgrounds, it is predominantly composed of paisas. These young migrants—either recent immigrants or children of immigrants—have come together through a shared passion for street art, seeking expression and camaraderie without joining local street gangs. The crew is mostly unorganized, lacking a formal leader or hierarchy. Many of its members, despite their youth, struggle with substance abuse, particularly with hard drugs like methamphetamine, which is prevalent among them.

Name: Dionicio Canahuati Age: 18 Alias(es): AVOKS / AVOKS ONER / A VISION OF KINGS Backstory: Dionicio Canahuati, known as Avoks or Avoks Oner, is a local graffiti artist from Little Seoul, known for his relentless tagging, daring style, and elusive nature. Born in Honduras, Dionicio moved to Los Santos at 6 years old with his parents, part of a wave of migrants fleeing violence and economic hardship in Central America. By age 14, Dionicio had found his place among the graffiti and gang-influenced streets. One of his earliest creations was his tag name, Avoks, short for A Vision of Kings. To Dionicio, the name represented a dream of self-made power and respect, an artistic identity he’d carry proudly before ever meeting the members of what would become the Westside Brown Riders Krew. Avoks keeps his public identity hidden with remarkable discipline, showing an almost paranoid level of caution. He spends most of his days indoors, gaming, smoking, and hanging out with his crew, the Brown Riders Krew (BRK), in his small apartment in Koreatown. His social media presence is limited to indirect posts showcasing his tags, always masked or hidden behind a hoodie, keeping his face entirely off social media. At night, Avoks undergoes a transformation. Fully masked up and carrying a stash of spray cans, he prowls the city looking for new walls to conquer. His tag is found in places many wouldn’t dare touch. His tags are often found on freeway overpasses, building rooftops, and even high-risk spots near police stations. His work combines the bold, rough style of gang tags with an unexpected touch of artistry, a blend of sharp, aggressive lines with detailed shading and color contrasts. His dedication to perfecting each tag shows his artistic ambition, yet he skirts the edge of tagbanger culture with his confrontational approach, seeming to never hesitate to slash out a rival crew and claim a new 'spot' for both himself and his crew.

This thread follows the story of Samuel Park, aka "Stray." Homeless resident of Little Seoul. ((Ooc comments and questions welcome.)) Birth Name: Samuel Park Nickname: Stray (Self-given) Race: Half-Korean/Half-White Current Age: 20 Occupation: Professional Garbage Thief (Homeless/unemployed), Repeat Felon, High School Dropout Samuel Park was the unwanted child of his father. He never understood why, but his father always showed him the most mixture of resentment and discipline. He was forced to work the hardest of his siblings, long aware that he was the only half-korean of his siblings. The youngest brother of three boys, and the one who seemed to get the shit end of every deal. As his teenage years came, Samuel began acting against his father's design. Rather than studying, he snuck out to go mess around with friends. Nights he was meant to show up places with his family, he was suddenly absent off at movies or out to eat. His father's punishment came in increasing severity until Samuel finally tired of it all. At the age of 17, he grabbed what he felt he needed and the cash he knew he could sneak away with and abandoned his home. It wasn't long until troubles followed him. His father actually filed a police report about this, forcing Samuel home the first time and took back what had been taken, but when it was clear Samuel would keep abandoning home he eventually gave up on having the cops bring him home. Choosing to let Samuel face reality himself. Samuel did not return home, but with no finances and his friends only able to house him in small doses, he started stealing food to survive. Snatching drive-though bags and running off, or palming small meals when walking through smaller stores. He ended up giving up on school, his condition becoming a talkin point of classmates and the ridicule was too much. Nearly an adult, he couldn't expect any help out of the predicament either. He managed to find work, at first. But the continued trend of theft started to catch up with him, and nights in jail lead to him being let go. A lack of education, mild ability to take care of himself, and a slowly growing criminal record meant most places wouldn't take the chance hiring him. He managed to grab a few small under the table jobs here and there, but eventually even that was unreliable. Slowly turning towards theft as a more direct action, his aims grew from small theft to kicking down doors to take things. Breaking into homes and cars, and eventually landing a proper felony on his sheet. Turned loose after serving his time, knowing just how much he'd screw up his life, he's now commited to surviving by all means, and somehow getting back on his feet. Criminal Record 1x 303. Home Invasion 2x 305. Petty Theft 1x 306. Grand Theft Auto 1x 311. Vandalism 4x 310. Trespassing
