My group did character and crew creation for our first game last night. We ended up with a daring crew of espionage-focused Shadows with turf in Brightstone (One of my players is drawing heavily from The Lies of Locke Lamora for inspiration, so the crew is focusing on the wealthy/nobility as their primary targets). They got their turf by paying off The Hive, and based on their crew choices also ended up with +1 status with the Bluecoats. Based on those two things and drawing heavily on The War in Crow’s Foot for background, I came up with the attached starting situation that I plan to use when we get back together for our first session.
Most likely, the opening entanglement will be Laroze, their Bluecoat contact, asking them to help steal some of the evidence the Inspectors have been gathering on the Hive, in order to delay the planned arrests that they are being forced to make.
Working with the meanest gang in town, eh? I like where this is going.
Realy like the way you are representing the conections. gusse i will steal that to make a web of the factions in my game
