Mission Ideas and Background Stories

Nichole's Mission Ideas

1. we find out that a CEO of a bank is embezzling funds that would have gone to some charity, and we go in to the bank where he is (and where his money is) and shoot him. we then take the money and make an anonymous donation to the charity. later it shows that we took some of his personal money (that he didnt embezzle) for ourselves.

2. There is a serial killer loose (in LA?) and we compete with the cops to hunt him down. Later we find out its a her, and she is well established in the criminal underground (we've all heard of her). She is on a murdering spree because her partner was shot and she can't handle the grief, so she takes it out on others. Then, we find out she kidnapped Arend with the intention of killing him, and we have to rescue him (unfortunately for us) Arend witnesses us killing her (in order to save others), and we are subsequently wanted by the police. We have a moment in the apartment where we discuss whether its ok to kill in order to save more lives.

3. There is a gang of robbers in town, and they are targeting places we have been considering robbing (a jewelry store that gets it's diamonds from slave-operated mines in Africa, another fraudulent bank, etc.) and we plan a stakeout so we can find out who these people are. They turn out to be a group of guys that's similar to our group, and they propose an alliance to rob a high-security compound. Along the way some of us get crushes on some of the guys in their group, but jennifer is suspicious of them, and thinks they will double-cross us. It turns out she is right, and during the operation they leave us holding the bag (metaphorically & literally speaking). We barely make it out alive.

4. We go hunting for the group of guys that double-crossed us. We get close several times, each time resulting in lots of gunfire, knife-throwing, etc. We finally track them down, and have an epic battle of sorts. We win, obviously, though we had to kill their leader. Arend & the rest of the police force find them after we've left, & swear to find us. Later, the girls in our group who had crushes on some of their group generally act heart-sick & what not.

Laura's Background Ideas: 

Jennifer: Her parents and sister were killed by corrupt police officers when she was young, and her mother and sister were raped.  She doesn't really trust men, and hates cops with a passion.  She is sent to an orphanage where she pretends to be a perfect student in school, but in reality, she sneaks out to play poker with a couple of local criminals.  She is a genius at both playing poker, and stealing money from those that displease her.  The criminals take a liking to her ( I dunno how they met yet) and they teach her how to use weapons.  They also give her a nice collection of knives.  She's always looking for gullible kids to help her with her schemes.  

Laura: (lol third person.  This is also one of my most developed ones XD) Her father was a violent sociopath, but her mother didn't figure it out until it was too late.  Her mother tried to leave him and get a divorce to protect her children (me and Johnny) but he eventually tracked them down and brutally murdered her mother by shooting her multiple times while the kids were watching.  Laura grabs a knife out of the kitchen to defend herself and her brother from her father.  He threatens both of them with the gun, telling them how he will kill them.  Laura manages to stab him with the knife before any of his shots can hurt them.  She becomes terrified of guns and feels a connection to knives.  She and her brother are sent to separate places.  She ends up at the same orphanage with Jennifer.  Jennifer forces her to do well in school and promises her the collection of knives if she helps her out in one of her schemes.

Nichole: (You can change it to whatever you want, but this is what I have so far) She basically lives by herself in a gigantic mansion, but never gets to see her parents.  Suspicious people are always coming by her house to see her parents.  She can't seem to figure out where her parents get their money.  Luckily, her parents have a private shooting range, so she spends all of her time developing her shooting skills.  She begins to suspect her parents are involved in criminal activities, so she looks up their private files while they're away on a "work trip".  When they return, they suspect somebody has read their files, but she is such a good actress, they don't ever suspect it's her.  She leaks some of their secrets to the police, and soon she hears the news that her parents have died in a horrible "accident" and all of their fortune was left to her.  Wanting nothing to do with their dirty money, she donates it to a charity and begins to find her own way in the world.
