The Crazy Eights are a secret society of skilled hackers and online hitmen, finding their contracts over the deep web. They are highly organized, and as such are extremely careful when it comes to the recruitment of new members. They’re like shadows in the night, keeping things discreet and always making sure their tracks are covered. Overall, they’re probably the most dangerous gang, and not the type of people you should mess with.

The Tsiolkovskaya group was not always into crime, they started out as the Tsiolkovskaya bakery (Named after the Scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky), in Voronezh. The Bakery was family owned for about 30 years, and shortly after the founder of the Bratva inherited the bakery, came the fall of the soviet union. With many being short on income after the fall, the bakery did not see much business.
With arms cheap in surrounding prior USSR countries, the baker(s) decided to give themselves a try in organized crime. Starting with Yugoslovia, the former bakers used what little money they had saved from the business to hire muscle, and poor men and women needing a little extra cash. The goal of these people? Run weapons from these former soviet republics, to countries like Ireland, and the United States. The gear was cheap, and profits were at-least 200% of what they paid originally.
In the years to come, they would grow to nearly 400 strong. Of course, such size attracted attention, and with that came bloodshed. The Tsiolkovskaya crew showed they could hold their own. They soon began threatening smaller groups, and forcing them to pay a fee for anything they did in their territory.
Seeing L.A. as a large market for illegal arms, they have recently started a branch there. With their profits, they have started in the real estate business. Want to keep an eye on possible enemies? Own every motel and hotel around, without their knowledge, and have every room bugged.

Angels of Oblivion are hardly your typical gang ━ in fact, they can hardly even be considered one. It was formed as a way to bring in people off the streets, who needed a home and were desperate to have a family. They have always did their best to keep blood off of their table, and the clique’s criminal activities are highly limited. In the past, rather than having a primary business, they pulled off multiple robberies and got away with it. Rather than manufacturing drugs or transporting weapons, they specialize in heists and other crimes.

They are a Victorian-themed group, having a system of a cult and a court. People are hung for minor misdeeds, and this is overall an edgy and dangerous gang to be in or be associated with.

The Konami Code actually originated in Los Angeles during the 1980s after there was a sudden flux of Japanese immigrants coming from the East to the West. Most of the immigrants were women who ran away from their abusive homes and chose to start a new life instead in the states, some of these women were also part of girl gangs during their youth in Japan during the 1970s, thus began the start of the gang.
Soon enough, the gang itself grew from accepting only Asian girls to any women who's interested in joining, regardless of skin colour or race. The Konami Code currently deal with petty thievery and shoplifting, though their main goal is to house and protect women who are oppressed by society or in their own homes. The style of the members are often depicted as bright, neon, and retro with words written on the sides of their clothing, depending on the title or nicknames given to them.

The Forty Elephants gang solely consisted of women. Before feminism was born and developed, the women of the Forty Elephants retired from fighting the system and instead used the patriarchy as an advantage. In the age where women were allowed levels upon levels of privacy in their shopping endeavors, they worked together to strip stores and unsuspecting victims wholly clean of any form of riches.
The most delicious part of the gang is that the men are the ones degraded in their gang's hierarchy. The original leader, Maggie Hill, was astonishingly and wondrously deadly. Decorating her hands with diamond studded rings that formed brass knuckles, and her arms with spiked golden cuffs, Maggie created a ravishingly cruel gang of women-- each like the gems in their pockets.
