S0BER Posted November 11, 2024 Share Posted November 11, 2024 (edited) El Burro Heights, January 9th, 2022 Originally started as a small group of vandals to shortly after engaging in petty mischief and more serious crimes, and characteristically dangerous behavior. A group of teens found themselves caught in the struggles of their environment. Many of them grew up in the same neighborhood, facing challenges like poverty and violence from surrounding gangs. They shared a bond that ran deep in their blood, stemming from their similar backgrounds and the harsh reality of survival in a reckless place like El Burro Heights. Joseph Arnal was an older figure involved with the Camberio Connection as an enforcer for younger soldiers. He was the brains behind much of what happened on the streets, leaving business decisions to the older individuals who led the Camberio Connection. After their downfall and the incarceration of several key figures, it was just Joseph Arnal and the small circle they called Valley Vipers. There were setbacks when Joseph was jailed for five years; he served two and still had one year left on parole before he could return to the streets. Joseph did everything he could to prevent the Vipers from becoming defunct. From inside, he worked hard to keep it running by sending messages, setting up meets etc, while also the young members outside resorted to robberies, shoplifting, and all kinds of crimes to survive the wild streets, however often failing through their rodeos and ending up in juvenile detention centers. JOSEPH ARNAL 2000-2021 After Arnal was released, Vipers were in an ongoing war with the King Kobras up in the Hills. That was when Joseph Arnal was killed in front of one of the stores. The story behind his death was that the King Kobras took his life during their conflict once he got out, he was caught in the crossfire with two bullets to the chest. This tragedy marked a difficult time for the Vipers. Joseph Arnal may be gone, but his legacy fuels their fire. Viboras 730 aka Valley Vipers 730 grew larger, showing their influence over younger individuals at school and in the streets, those who wanted to become products of their environment and looked to appear tough. It was a mix of violence and influence that allowed them to earn some respect in their neighbourhood despite their young age. Social media played a major role; they craved clout and used every platform to showcase who they were. Viboras 730 started recruiting kids from around the neighborhood, flaunting the cash they were making. It was all about excitement and camaraderie and also the appeal of belonging to something. Soon enough they began to form "gang" hand-signs etc...Shortly enough it was a unification of multiple members or foundings one rather than a formation of one, but unlike the big gangs that ran the streets of Los Santos the Viboras were small time, hanging by a thread. It was barely holding it together and inside the group loyalty wasn't guaranteed. Most of the members were there for survival. They often argued over money and blamed one another when things went wrong, fights would break out leaving bruises and busted lips... However at the end they still held it togehter as they had nowhere else to go. Edited January 24 by S0BER 48 1 Link to comment
S0BER Posted November 11, 2024 Author Share Posted November 11, 2024 (edited) Viboras 730 is a completely fictional Mexican-American unorganized group of teens inspired by the real life sureno culture from East Los Angeles. While we draw on real-life gang culture for an authentic roleplay experience, VVS stays fictional and strives for character development above all else. We aim to create a realistic portrayal of development and transition from a unorganized group to a structured gang life in a fictional, respectful and controlled environment. Our roleplay focuses mostly on complexities of gang life — loyalty, identity, family and struggle to survive in a harsh environment, young hispanics who go through illicit activities to earn their keep. While VVS is inspired by elements of real life sureno culture, our goal is to create a respectful, creative space for character-driven roleplay and storytelling. Our faction might sound like a gang or a group of violent individuals, the roleplay happening in-game will be taken slow and the transition will not happen for some time until some of the characters are actually developed, the roleplay itself will be based on some community roleplay and roleplay that focus on the life of these teens involved in this group. If you got any questions about the faction or its members, don't hesitate to send a forum PM to @Schizophrenic or @S0BER Edited November 12, 2024 by S0BER 22 Link to comment
