Zorbis have long been a part of Graal's history. That's right, Zorbis, head10.png. Zorbis. And seeing as Era is a on a coastline, who's to say these pieces of Graal's history don't inhabit those very waters? That's what this gang, the Zorbi Squad, is about. People who believe that the true rulers of this world, the Zorbis, will arise to reclaim the land that was stolen from their depths. The gang is made up of eccentrics who mindlessly support this "master race", as well as Zorbis themselves. While they have "religious zeal" as their main motive, the operate more as just a group of hoodlums.

1. Your account/nick and who’s going to run it.

I honestly don't care who's going to run it. I casually play Era, but I don't feel I have enough "street cred" or skill to run a gang. I'm just throwing out ideas.

2. A name and complete rank system for the gang (this is a very important step, don’t half ass it.
|
Zorbi Squad. ZS. The ranks?
The leader rank is "Great White" (aptly named after the king of the deep)
Below Great White are the "Tiger Sharks". There are only two of these, and serve as the Great White's "enforcers"
Below them are:
Man 'o War
Lamprey
Angler
Eel
Scallop

3. Your theme you wish to accomplish

Already said most of it. Just a group of freaks and some fish trying to conquer the city.

4. Any ideas on the base itself or lack of base. Be unique; don't be like BH/BB/LC
|
I see the base being located below the bridge. Inside, the first rooms just resemble dank sewers, but further into it, towards the gang "lounge" areas, appear more like a beach, albeit indoors.

5. The gang weapon you'd like to receive. I'd love it if you stayed away from the whole gun aspect and went a different route such as an explosive or something very different from the rest. Can be a gun, but needs to fit the theme.

Ok, check it out. A stylized rifle, seaweed hanging off it. It should resemble the stereotypical "pirate gun", wooden with gold trimmings. It ends in a giant crab claw. The rifle itself shoots three bullets, with a small spread, doing 15-20 damage per bullet. Give it a long reload time and short rate of fire, it's pretty much a primitive rifle. But the kicker is the crab claw. It operates like bayonet, becoming the player's melee weapon as well. Pressing S with the gun does a quick stab, 10 damage and minor wound, pressing F is a slower slash that stuns the enemy, doing only 10-15 damage.
As a back up weapon, if allowed, a "puffer fish grenade". When thrown, the puffer fish briefly expands on the ground, exploding in 15 quills. Each quill stuns and wounds the enemy, but only do 5 damage per quill. If possible, the quills shouldn't be able to explode barrels or anything.

6. Any rules by which your members will have to go by. I want gangs to start doing more than just hiring a bunch of people to raid, I want them to actually try to organize themselves and have some sort of ranking system made where people work for a ranks and have RULES they MUST follow. But the gang has to be unique and lead well, otherwise who'd care enough to stick around for a rank?
|
The constant purpose of this gang is to prove Zorbi superiority, and for the humans who join their ranks to outlive the humans who don't believe in the Zorbi cause. The gang tries to maintain a respectable public relations in an effort to get more people in on the cause, and thus have less human enemies. Honestly, not much can be done with this, as Era has little room of "RP" motives.

7. Tell me exactly why you think your idea should be uploaded. I want to know your reasoning for your gang. I want to know each and every detail you can give me so I can make a complete decision on it or tell you what needs fixed.
|
Obviously, I think it should be implemented because I think it's a good idea. I wouldn't have typed this if I thought otherwise. And if it's any help, I can do graphics to a minor extent, and ganis, so hopefully if it is done, I could help make the gun a reality. On top of that, I can do levels to the same extent as Era's staff already does, mediocre at best, so my pathetic levels will fit right in with Era's clunky square levels.
