Backstory
The city of Starlingtown is sometimes as quiet as ever, however, underground the criminal city can be found always busy! Unfortunately for them, the police know about it, but the Criminal City citizens are unaware of this. The normal city is, however, extremely crime-ridden, but in response to the discovery of the underground city, special police teams were formed to go undercover. Meanwhile, the normal city's citizens are as happy as ever to see a double in the police force! Always a friendly officer around, the city is even safer than before!

Criminals
Criminals commit crimes. People may create gangs.
All members will be listed below.
Johnathan “The Big Boss” Carter - A 34-year-old, his nickname was earned for having respect from all criminal minds, he owns a Mafia of sorts, and is feared. Not much is known about him. Making him even scarier… He is also Liam Carter's Identical Twin Brother, and Isaac Song's Cousin.
Jia Williams - A 23-year-old, Jia is non-binary, and lived an otherwise normal life. They are a nice person but they are annoyed very quickly. Living in a dangerous and unsporting household, they left to avoid consequences for being simply themselves. They are great at Navigation, Graffiti, and Evading the law. However, they are terrible in any Social Contact and many other, numerous skills.
Sirah Hill - An 18-year-old, she knows how to get a mission done without hurting many people, though they still do it if needed. She cares about her fellow criminals and will do anything to get them back if they are captured. When she was younger, she was very poor. Her family was living off grapes. As she got older, it got harder and harder. That's when she decided to become a criminal. She started stealing and providing for her family. They didn't know where she got the money from but they didn't ask. Eventually, though, the police found out and blamed the parents for it. Due to them being a black family, extra violence ensued and they died. Sirah was the only survivor, but only because she ran. She is good at running and lying, plus firearms. She is also smart. She doesn't have much strength and is fragile, plus she is very emotional.
Maria Hill - A 19-year-old Female, she in Sirah Hill's identical twin. When she was younger, she was very poor. Her family was living off grapes. As she got older, it got harder and harder. That's when she decided to become a criminal. She started stealing and providing for her family long before Sirah did, and nobody found out. Except for Sirah. She encouraged Sirah to help her. That's why her parents got arrested. She's skilled at hand-to-hand combat, firearms combat, defending, running, lockpicking, healing people, and is very sneaky and intelligent. Despite being intelligent, her personality overtakes her when she goes on missions, leading to her just outright killing everyone there unless stopped by her sister (Which she almost always is). She is also very fragile, so if she fails at defending herself, she will most likely be injured for days.
Rorke Paul - A 28-year-old man, He was a real poor kid during his childhood, he would never be satisfied with what he got. When he was 14, his parents died unexpectedly. He became highly depressed, he spent almost all his money on useless things and lost most of it. He then looked into the criminal industry and started robbing stores, now he is organizing bank heists. He is skilled in Firearms, Stealth, and Agility. Although, he is terrible at Hand-To-Hand combat.
James Ford - A 23-year-old man, James had their dad shot 17 times by a gang while walking down the street. This event has destroyed James's hope in humanity and now his favorite thing to do is be a criminal. He is able to make his way around any security system and likes to code. Good in agility, stealth, and firearms. But, is bad at not doing arrest-worthy stuff, getting a partner. He also owns a modded AK47 that is slightly more powerful than normal and a 50 AE Deagle, stock.
Christopher Jay - A 23-year-old male, his parents were very abusive towards him. He moved out at the age of eighteen and hasn't looked back since. Fast runner, doesn't tire out quickly. Sometimes he uses his social skills to his advantage, but he is too laid back at times, vulnerable to lies and deception.
Osore Motarasu - A 24 year old man, Osore's parents and siblng where killed in a bombing. He was homeless. Is part of The Johnathan Mafia as an assassin, and he is bad at being social.
Civilians
Civilians have no affiliation and are normal people. They may still influence the RP.
Lucy Carter - A 10-year-old Girl, she's Liam Carter's daughter and grows up hearing stories of her evil uncle, which builds a strong hate in her uncle in her. She's grown up in starlingtown. She admires her father a lot and dreams to become a police officer one day. Sometimes, when someone does something she strongly objects to at school, she gets into quarrels, which she has a bad reputation for at school. She has good eyesight is sharp and can stop the smallest of things. But, because of her “daughter-of-police” status, she's a target for criminal minds.
Fred Huric - A 15-year-old boy, He was raised in a toxic household until he was 12, when he finally ran away, and lived on the streets for 2 months, sometimes shoplifting to live, and meeting some of the biggest baddies in the biz, until his uncle and aunt took him in, and he reconsidered his crimes, and resolved to help fight it in the future, he is clever and able to outwit many situations, but if he is confronted, he'll often not be able to respond or act.
Skylar Finch - A 29-year-old girl, she is a paramedic, Skylar grew up in the small town of Brooklyn (now merged with Sunshine Bay), surrounded by many friends. She was obsessed with garlic bread and still is. One day she and her friends won a skiing trip to the alps when an avalanche occurred. She had helped save two people, as well as rescue two of her friends from the brink of death. From that day on, she had her heart set on being a paramedic and giving emergency help to those who need it. She studied at Brooklyn University and graduated as a paramedic. She then moved to Starlingtown. She's calm when talking to people (unless it's her ambulance buddy in which case no), she's quite extensive in her knowledge, loves cooking, and is creative. Often screams at the sight of blood (on movies, TV screens, basically anything) unless it's an emergency, overthinks everything, stresses before emergency callouts, disorganized.
