[Setting]<br/><br/>Most conflicts between factions will take place in an area of the city called Central Sundown, it features a shopping district including a mall, a park, and a Business district, its held within neutral territory that no faction has been able to purchase, win over, or conqore yet. Still held by the City.<br/><br/>Faction Drives: (What Drives each faction)<br/><br/>[Police]: Reputation and Law enforcement. The better they do the better their paid and they can enjoy a bad guy sandwich for a few days.<br/><br/>[Mafia]: Power and Money, the Mafia wants to rule Sundown with absolute power, through fear and force.<br/><br/>[Ninja Clan]: Land and Reputation, The Ninja clan is fueled by hard work and charity, though originally homeless, the golden sands have worked out gardens, planted fruit trees and crafted their own bases of operations in china-town. They just need a place to live and are trying to prove to the city that they deserve it by turning the poorest citizens in the community into a positive effect on the city. Not all members are focused on kicking bad guy butt, some are just good natured and focus on developing the city, by providing chores and tasks such as gardening, cleaning, and minor tasks.<br/><br/><br/>Possible Event triggers:<br/><br/>Mafia sees something it wants, so they take it, police dont like that, and the Ninja Clan could react seeking to better their reputation and expand their borders.<br/><br/>Police uproot evidence of a long dead crime and some of the officers have a personal stake in the previously cold trail.<br/><br/>Ninja Clan is hired by a nobleman to retrieve a stolen item of value to the nobleman, to raise funds and improve repuatation, they head out to accomplish this mission.<br/><br/>(Money will be a big influence in the system of this rp, it places value on a task, but other currencies will be reptuation, and territory. Which will also influence all three factions.)<br/><br/>---<br/>{START}<br/><br/>Two mask wearing anthro wolf Yakuza members are bolting down the mall after shooting a store owner who was late in his protection fees, they were going to eat the bear but after being spotted by a burly gorrilla police officer they simply shot the poor bears leg as a warning and took off at the food court a pair of GS ninjas one in a white outfit, the other in a blue one, are enjoying a pizza as a treat from the pizza shop for helping deal with a crook, their masks half lifted so they could eat, they whine to each other, the white one a male human, the blue one a female fox, neither wanting to abandon their delicious treat, but they each grab one more peice and jam it down their throats, before springing forward and bolting after the criminals, the swift fox quickly overtaking the two and slinging a bola chord around one of the wolfs feet made from rope and some sand filled tennis balls, she keeps going as the boy behind her in white delivers a swift knockout punch as the criminal is getting up, the second wolf continues running but turns on the fox to fire his gun, she leaps through the air like an acrobat bouncing and flipping twice, before diving at the wolf and sweeping a leg under his own, tripping him as well before booting away his gun and simply sitting on top of the wolfs back, pounding his head like a bongo drum whenever he tries to stand.<br/><br/>But a voice spoke, a gunshot rang through the mall, and the fox dropped her shoulder stained red.<br/><br/>A female raven stood behind her, dressed in a long black coat, an enormous curved sword in one hand, a silver pistol in the other, the skull of a chickadee chained around her neck. She appeared as Death would to the dying. No one moved. Because everyone knew who this was. Longshot Raven, the sharpest eye in the country, aside from being a raven and being named Raven, she had never missed a shot with the silver plated magnum in her right hand, she shot from the hip, never aimed, but somehow always hit with a massive slow bullet that could pierce most armors. The sword represented that she was a Yakuza member, all Yakuza are required to carry a japanese sword. the larger the sword the higher the rank, and hers was a Nodachi meaning she was right next to their don.<br/><br/>She calls out, "You ape, bring me that white wearing kid over there", *Longshot stowed her sword, the shiney weapon getting her point across while the police officer made several strange and angry expressions like he was trying to choke down bile. Before grabbing the white ninja boy and dragging him over to Longshot...ironically the ninja didnt resist, the raven bent down and grabbed the whimpering fox girl by the scruff of her neck*, "you know, mama did make a lovely fox stew...hmhmhm...and I mean she tasted delicious...HAAH!", *she was joking about eating her mother, but she was implying that she would eat the blue ninja*, but just as she was being lifted to the ravens beak, the fox booted longshots pistol straight out of the big birds talons, the white ninja bounds from the officers grip, and delivers a leap kick straight into her beak, knocking her on her rump with a startled 'Squawk!?'<br/><br/>Raven draws her sword again, pointing its tip defencively towards the white ninja and the lot goes to a standstill, the officer keeping his boot on ravens magnum, and readying his own pistol he knew she wasn't as good with other guns as she was that heavy magnum, a birds wings are terribly strong so she needed a large gun to comphensate, and she was too proud of her title to risk missing a shot. Seems they were at a standoff.
