Picture Incoming Soon(TM) Mia Fuentes, Elven Ganger Born and abandoned at church steps, Mia never got anything besides her name from her real family. She was raised by Padre Julio and the rest of the Lost Lamb church, a small church maintained in the poor neighborhood. It wasn't a quiet existence - it got its name for its policy of accepting any children who couldn't be cared for, and Mia was one of two dozen. It was loud, it smelled bad, and for Mia it was the only home she wanted. She never went to school or hung out with friends, she didn't even have a commlink for the longest time. But she had her brothers and sisters, and they were close - the oldest ones always seemed to have some new toys for the younger kids, or some makeup for the teens. It was just how it was. It was a good life for them. The Padre taught them to read and write, and the especially bright kids even got tutored by some of the older members of the church - Mia never tried for that, but it was an option for her. So she was happy. On her thirteenth new years, she and the other kids her age were gathered together and the truth was revealed - the church was actually the base for the Santas, an all hispanic gang out to protect the hispanic population of Dallas. Each and every teen was offered entry, and each and every one accepted. It was, after all, family. Mia... she wasn't much good at anything - she wasn't the smartest or the strongest. She was quick, but always claimed that guns felt off, and refused to use them. It was a year into her training that she discovered her whip. The gang was big on weapon trafficking - and she was pretty good at sneaking in to get a peak at anything they had. And she hit the jackpot on that one - taking a whip from the stores, she went out to 'play'. Nearly took off her arm in that incident, but instead of scaring her straight, she was amazed, and happy. Sure, the Padre said she'd die if she tried to use it, but so what? It was right. For five years past that point, she ran with the family. She became known for a combination of her whip and skates - a merciless woman who would rip apart anyone who'd hurt her family, skating happily along as she did so. Even she doesn't know why, but eventually she took her earnings and went to a local chopshop - gone was her middle finger, a compartment installed to hold her whip. She told the Padre that day - she was going to start Running, to help the church and the kids there. She'd always be there for her family, but she needed to live her own life. In the months since, she's gotten set up for her new life - a new identity, an actual house, and some 'armor' that ate up her entire life savings. Investments for the future. The Santas Literally, the Saints, the Santas are a hispanic-first gang operating out of the poorest sections of the Dallas area. Under a cover of being a church organization giving 'donations' to the needy of the area, Padre Julio founded the Santas to take from those who have too much, and provide for those in his 'flock'. The original members were all close friends of the Padre and similarly devout, but in the twenty years since its founding, its 'recruits' have mostly been children taken into the care of the church. Incredibly tightknit, every member is considered to be a true family - they are all brothers and sisters. To cause harm to your brother or sister is to truly fail as a person - the one thing they are strict on. If you intentionally kill a brother or sister, you are inviting for whoever is most important to you to be taken and killed, one by one. If you accidentally bring harm on them and refuse to accept fault, then you will be made to match their pain. Despite, or perhaps because, of this fact, the Santas are a widely happy group. Internal disputes are rare. The Padre learns much, and is said to have ears in every bit of business in the city - the Santas themselves deal in everything from drugs to weapons, and a mix of legal and illegal sources keep them well informed. Contacts Maria Caldero: The Santas' drug specialist, her bit of the land under the church is known to make everything someone might want to put in their body for a high. A friend of Mia growing up in the church, she constantly shows concern that Mia is 'a stupid loving puta' who is going to get herself killed. Connections 2, Loyalty 4. Antonio Almada: This 50 something year old ork is one of the few members of the Santas not raised by the Padre. He's not particularly strong, or smart, nor is he a leader. He doesn't know everything in the world either. But he's the friendliest guy in the gang, and is the one who teaches most of the kids how to read and write. Connections 1, Loyalty 5 Mario Beltran: The bruiser. Mario heads up the strong arm group of the Santas. A troll, he's used to discrimination, both towards his culture and his metatype. And he never moved past it. Instead, he funneled it into a fine tuned rage. If you ever need someone to rip a door off a safe, Mario's who to call. Him and Mia have always been on shakey grounds, despite being the same age, and taken under the Padre's care at the same time - her being an elf meant everyone treated her as better than him, and he resents it. Connections 2, Loyalty 3. Sara Luna: Sara, a dwarf, never went to school, but no one should ever remind her of that. Her operating table under the church has saved dozens of Santas, and she's always willing to open shop, no matter the time. Just... don't expect pain killers, she doesn't keep those. She's of the opinion that Mia is literally the dumbest person, to go try and make a living in the shadows, and their relations are a bit strained - for Sisters at least.
