((Yes, I totally cop to ripping off the Stellar Mythic request post title.))
Character Name: Kaida Te
Character Faction: Settoudan
Number Of People Wanted: 5 or more!
Reason For Roleplay: Makin' a faction! Space Yakuza! They're called the "Settoudan"! Wanna join?! If so, read on!
Other: Basically just started laying down the groundwork for this faction. Essentially they are based off of the Yakuza, and I'll be expanding upon the varying ranks and roles, and quite a honestly a lot of it will just be renamed Yakuza positions. Albeit, I am thinking of mixing a Triad angle as well.
In any case, like the Yakuza the Settoudan is run by varying families of size and power, and each family is basically a consolidation of numerous clans. Now, the Exchange Crime Lord I'm creating is going to be the leader of the largest family, Yamamoto-kai, who make-up near 50% basically having them somewhat mirror in relative size and strength the actualy Yakuza family the Yamaguchi-gumi who are estimated to make up about 50% of the Yakuza making them largest family. HOWEVER, if you want to have your own Settoudan family that rivals the Yamamoto-kai or whatever, GO FOR IT! Totally an open option, or you don't want you character running a family, they can be apart of one fulfilling one the varying ranks that compose a Settoudan family. Which, I don't have the ranks down, yet--BUT, they will be, remember they're basically going to mirror the Yakuza ranking system.
What I have down now should give you an idea of where I'm aiming to take things with this. And it would be awesome to have others to plan stuff out with, and I have several ideas already of where to take the faction. BUT! For any of it to happen, you have to join! Like voting! Your membership matters! You got questions?! Fire away! I'll answer'em!
Note: The word "Settoudan" basically means "band of thieves" or "den of thieves", so while it may not be that epic of a name. Bear in mind, "Yakuza" while generally labelled for the Japanese mafia, really means "worthlessness" or "uselessness" or plain ol' "good for nothing". And who is gonna say that they aren't some scary, epic, crazy mofos? Which just goes to show you, it's not necessarily the name or the meaning that defines a group/faction/gang/organization/whatever, it's how they define themselves.
