Dandelions
Leader: Ava Blumenthal.
The Dandelions is a clandestine activist group led by Ava, operating in the shadows of Starfall city with a singular mission: to combat corruption and bring about positive change. Despite their noble intentions, the group remains shrouded in mystery, with little known about their activities or membership beyond whispers and rumors.Operating covertly beneath the guise of Astera and Buds, Ava's tea house café serves as the perfect cover for the Dandelions' operations, providing a safe haven for like-minded individuals to gather and strategize away from prying eyes. Behind the façade of brewing tea and serving pastries lies a network of dedicated activists united by their passion for justice and their determination to make a difference in their community.While the true extent of the Dandelions' influence remains a closely guarded secret, many with like-minded intentions may accidently find themselves wanting to follow a greater cause.

Crossbones
Leader: Killian Jones.
Before there was Crossbones, Killian had originally been apart of several gangs that came and went over the years in Starfall. Not many stood their grounds or managed to control territories, especially during Rasputin's reign. It wasn't until later years that Drake's Fang formed and he decided to join it — many of his friends and mutual gang members from previous gangs followed suit. He was never a stranger to this kind of life as he had been running the streets since he was 16. The few years he spent in Drake's Fang wasn't all that bad at first until he met a child named Peter Pan. A complete thorn in his side. No matter what he said or did, Peter had a way of digging his claws into Killian and giving him more and more reasons to despise the kid. The divide was only growing to the point that it was going to have a breaking limit that couldn't be turned back from. One day, he had a disagreement with another within the gang that was close to Peter's age — Tootles. It was then that Killian's anger finally hit that led him to killing the kid only for Peter to react by cutting his hand off.Everything happened faster than he could comprehend.There was complete disbelief that he had just lost his hand. The hatred that developed for this kid got to the point that he demanded retaliation against Peter Pan, but Freyr declined against it thinking the spat was childish seeing how Killian was a grown man and Peter was still a child. He came to realize that Drake's Fang was not his vision and being older than Freyr he felt that he was going to step away and make a new name for himself. He left the gang and took what followers and friends he had which divided The River Styx with Freyr owning one side and Killian owning the other half. Slowly he began building his own territory, raiding buildings and recruiting. As he built the Jolly Roger Club, it became his primary place of business and operation. His most trusted friend and second in command, Aladdin, opened up his own club within the same district called Arabian Nights. He gave no choice but Freyr to accept his presence as a rival gang and took over an unclaimed territory. They made an agreement that they would stay off one another's turf in order to keep a mutual understanding between the both of them.Now replacing his missing hand with a Hook, most people in town refer to him as his nickname, Hook. He's often drunk and comes off friendly to the members of his new gang — Crossbones. He is welcoming, but could turn a switch quite easily if needed be. He doesn't shy away from pulling the trigger, no matter the circumstances. Not pulling the trigger fast enough is not a mistake he was willing to make again. Hook utilizes his charisma and appearance in order to woo others, whether it be to convince others to join his gang or find a woman to slip into his bed for the night. He had found himself broken over and over again with no intention to be repaired. Although he seems to be relatively nice, he uses certain manipulative tactics to get his way. Most of his anger is turned to deserters as he's not forgiving for anyone who chooses to leave his gang, but the fear instills loyalty. He would have them tortured or kill for trying to desert.And anyone that is willing to get the head of Peter Pan would get any wish granted to them. He is adamant that there is no chance he'd be even remotely happy until he can be sure that Peter Pan gets what's coming to him. Now knowing Peter Pan had left Drake's Fang means that there isn't a gang to protect him anymore and that keeps things exciting.Due to Hook's lack of mercy, he attracts new members that aren't afraid of pulling the trigger and getting blood on their hands.

Drake's Fang

Conducting primarily in the River Styx prefecture, Freyr holds dominion over half of the territory, with the other portion belonging to his rival, Crossbones.At the center of Drake's Fang's operations lies the Night Sky Casino, a den of vice and opulence where fortunes are won and lost amidst the swirling haze of smoke and the clinking of glasses.
