It's not civilized logic Alex man, it's Awesome logic; as you know, Society is typically dumb in general, so that statement would be a bit ironic. Unless that was exactly what you meant, and in that case I laugh with you.

I'd totally be willing to join/make a gang that plays with events from the shadows. kind of like a backroom kind of dealer where they have ties with everybody, yet they dont have any kind of friendships or rivalries. All strictly business that they do to make themselves more powerful through other's means. If anyone wants to create something like that, I'd surely be up for it... I just need to get my posts high enough to create if no one else will.

You need 500 posts to do that Kuro so lets face the facts you have a long way to go.

Gangs are likely to be just as prevelant if they're anything like the Varron gangs. Shall we look through the list of active gangs?
--- The Hand Of Fate: Bad guy's personifyed. Do evil, then laugh about it over a beer.
Genäht: The true nutral. Don't be a dick. Don't let anyone else be a dick.
Legion: Good guy's with baditude. Stop the hand and become head of the city's underground to keep it clean.
The Watchmen: The Anti-Gang. Get stronger, protect all that is good, get rid of city's gangs. ---
It's not like any of that can't exsist in Hircine. Heck, it's likely that some Hircine students would JOIN such gangs.

Good point, but the main problem with that seems to be that Legion doesn't really seem to exist anymore (I mean, the other notable gangs still need to regroup, but I thought I read in one of Taiku's posts that Legion disbanded after the defeat at the Edge).

Pssh. Who says Legion was defeated. The Hand achieved there objective, but got throughly beaten down.
Mind your words Kai.
But yep, despite still wearing the Legion ring, to Odin's knowledge they're no longer around.

I've got to defend Kai here... in Kazuki's new bar, it does note that he named the place in honor of the "group he left behind in Varron."
Does that ring a bell by chance?

And where does that say the word 'defeated'?

It doesn't, but the attack at the Edge was technically a defeat for Legion, since the Hand managed to destroy the building, and if I read correctly Taiku eventually responded by disbanding Legion. That's all I meant.

Some just don't seem to see my point. A building is a building. Whoopy.
Multiple members being beaten into a bloody pulp serves a much greater purpose.

A building that also happens to be Legion's single most important source of income, their one and only headquarters, and also the one known safe haven for the entire Gang... yes, one building. Whoopy.
Sorry Odin, but while this doessn't mean the Hand of Fate "won," considering they're technically MIA as well at the moment, I would admit that Legion was forced to a retreat and therefore "defeated." If one is in a defensive position, loses their defense, and is forced from their defense from the result of a successful assault regardless of casaulties on the other side, the defenders are therefore "defeated."
Considering Legion "disbanded," that also adds to the "Defeat" factor.

Down sparky, down.
You are both misunderstanding eachother. Legion was meant to be disbanded whether or not its seen as a loss. Technically, both sides lost, even though we both know being as badass as Legion was we would of really beat down the hand.
The Hand is gone(ish) so Legion served its purpose and ceases to exist. Liam planned to disband Legion before the firebombing, and it was just a good way to end it.
So to Odin: The reason we "lost" is cuz its convenient to the board storyline, though technically it seemed the event was a stalemate and tragedy on both sides.
To John: Odin means we would've whooped them. Which is true.

To John: Odin means we would've whooped them. Which is true. Since this clearly requires the inside facts, and given I'm the only person who actually knows the FULL story with Legion, allow me to explain. First and foremost, yes, I intended to disband Legion after the firebombing given the reasons hinted upon in the first thread of Club Legion, Taiku was not happy with allowing people willing to fight for him to be put at such risks. Upon the conclusion of the Hand and the subsequent storyline, he would have gathered together the top members and explained that because of this, he was disbanding the gang. However, I will also concede partial defeat in the thread, but only because the storyline was not able to be fully finished. Had I had time, I'm more than confident that not only would Legion have beaten them back, but that in advancing to fighting Kvist that he would most likely be a toetag by now... Club Legion is now not just a place for ex-Legion members to go, because Taiku is still intent on forging alliances with the people who joined him before, but now for all Varronites who are willing to put aside any previous differences. The gangs may work here, but you'll be hard pressed to have much luck with them in the school.....

... Toetag is not far from the truth. Especially if I had to face all of Legion's members who survived the attack. But other stuff made it a legible storyline purpose and we went with it. For The Hand of Fate. They're still around, of course weakened after their encounter with The Feds, but it's around! Technically, we won Kyu. Does this include Kvist? ;D

Wait, so if I am no longer Legionaire, I am free to join the Watchmen without actually having to confront Kazuki and tell him I'm going off to be even more the goody goody than I already was? Yayness!

Does this mean The Hands next 'worthy' opponent gang will be The Watchmen?

The Hands being controlled by Dean now, right? Well, if that's the case then you won't even have to worry about The Watchmen. Odin'll breakin jaws as soon as he hears the rumors.

Dean or Seta, from what I heard. Of course, that's probably out of date now.
Not that it matters.

They were supposed to argue over the title and bla bla bla... But Liam Macmillan felt otherwise and interupted the thing with his goons...
