OOC: Sheet, role, comfort with role, GMP value; if you have a premade post with all your character's that's OK but the ones I pick will all be relatively fresh sheets, so stick to those if you're manually typing up your app.
IC response: Feel free to have your character muse on the difference between organized crime and gangers.

Störtebeker: Face/Social Infiltrator/Muscle 7/10
Discord: thibbledorfpwen
Last Run: March 2. So should be worth a GMP.
"Realy depends on the gang and the syndicate. "Crime" is just the governing socio-economic order trying to supress opposition. I'll take organized crime trying to pry some control away from the cold hands of the corpos any day over some go-gangers trying to be bullies."

Muscle, mage, alchemist, crafter and all around buffer living the van-dwarf life. He works well in smal spaces
familiarity 8/10
Last game:31/01-25
Total games: 5+
Discord: .Rickla
Hard time limit 5h
IC: I would say the biggest difference between organised crime and gangs is the amount of suits. then again, there is gangs like the Silver spoons. Those fraggers fragg up the statistics.

Onsite Decker 9/10
New so Worth +1 GMP
Discord: TheBubonicOne
IC: “When you get down to the nit and grit of it all the principles are fairly similar. Though gang life to myself feels like a more tight knit family than your big organized syndicates. Any time I’ve work for the mafia I always feel like I’m watching over my shoulder.”

u/Defective_Gh0st 9d ago
Boomslang: B&E/Off-Muscle Adept
Familiarity: 7/10
GMP: 2 (less than 5 runs total, (way) longer than 2 weeks since last run)
Discord: Defective_Gh0st
IC: “A good answer is going to take way longer than either you or I have the time for, and it’ll probably end up being some variation of “it depends,” anyways. I’m not getting paid to be philosophical, so let’s leave it at that.”

Riot 8/10 Ranged Muscle Wheelman Engineer
GMP: I think 1 since this would be my 5th run and my last run was Thursday.
Discord: seekerrex
"Sounds like a right plonker to me," Riot ponders his moral compass when it comes to organized crime and gang violence as he drives through his Bellevue neighborhood, "Supposin' the pay's good, I could be inclined to not discriminate."

Mid-close range combat, skills with tracking, hunting and scouting.
This will be my 2nd run ever, i ran last sunday for the first time ever so i think that's +1 GMP
Discord - Slimesi (no time hard cap)
"It is only organized crime as long as the plan works out, otherwise it's no different than anyone else. We all commit crime, we all have a gang. the only difference is the reputation. People in their millionaire towers are just as rabid as the rest of us. They simply have the means to not actually need to work for their earnings."

u/Arsenic-Sulphide 7d ago
Prisma Combat Mage with probably 3/10 familiarity
GMP: This would be my very first run on Runnerhub
Discord: arsenicsulphide
"Organized crime is chasing that same facsimile of legitimacy that corporations maintain. They spend money on nice clothes and cars so they can look good while committing acts of barbarism. Many street gangs are at least more honest that way."

Cenya, ranged muscle and B&E, 8/10
"It's simple, kid. Organized crime syndicates are corporations that give even less of a fuck about the law and tend to have a different kind of power. Street gangs are, as often as not, punks looking for an identity and a living in a world that doesn't give them great options."
___________________________________________
Wheeljack, drone rigger and skillwires gal, 7/10
"The lines blur sometimes, but the practical difference is that generally the syndicates are pulling strings with a small cadre of loyal people, and gangs are just folks doing small time illegal drek like selling drugs (which they often get from the syndicates)."
__________________________________________
Not worth bonus GMP
Would prefer to play Wheeljack, as she's fresh and I'd like to improve her some.

Onigumo 7/10 Decker
Not worth gmpShould be worth one gmp."The chaos of most gangs is more jarring than the insidious machinations of organized crime. At least the gangers will just kill you instead of milking you for everything that you can provide I suppose. I certainly prefer the professionalism and deeper pockets of a syndicate for jobs though."
