The Bell Tolls

Blood in the Streets

During the Rumble In The Streets tournament, the long-standing Yakuza clans were split into two warring factions. While the newer Akatsuki-gumi Yakuza sided with the manipulative Scarlet Dahlia (aka Honoka), the "old guard" Yakuza were honor-bound into siding with Duke Burkoff and Southtown Syndicate.

In the wake of losing high-profile politicians to "suicide" and other unfortunate incidents, Duke has decided to save face by lashing out at the Akatsuki. Confronting Dahlia, he managed to get captured and overpowered, but not before pulverizing Dahlia's leg. But Duke has returned, and has brought war with him. His goal? Drive the Akatsuki out of Japan's main island of Honshu, and secure the entire island under Syndicate control.

But Dahlia has her allies. The disgraced Lee Chaolan, in retaliation against Duke's actions toward Dahlia, has unleashed a destructive computer virus upon the Syndicate's network and banking infrastructure. With Duke's team forced onto the back foot, Dahlia and her allies are moving to close the noose around Southtown Syndicate.

Already, innocent civilians have become victims of Duke's explosive violence. The Akatsuki forces are losing ground, but public approval of the Southtown Syndicate organizations is fading fast. How many innocent lives will be consumed by Duke's brutal campaign before he can be stopped?

Shadaloo Rises

Across the ocean, trouble between Mexico and the United States is brewing more and more. Cartels, long silent in Mexico, have exploded in activity along the border. Innocent children are being kidnapped. Crime is exploding in Sunshine City. Things have gotten so desperate that both the US and Mexico have agreed to combine resources to secure their borders. That should be just a footnote of the world politics. But it's something so much more.

With the death of Vega in the Mortal Kombat tournament, it was believed that Shadaloo was decapitated. The truth is much more dire: Shadaloo has been consolidating power within Mexico. Agents have been dispatched, sometimes unwittingly, to countless organizations around the world. Shadaloo's long campaign of lying low and gathering resources has finally reached its peak. Shadaloo is now on the move.

Now, they are striking out, using the 'agreement' between the United States and Mexico as their means to seize fighters and the psionically gifted for their own forces. Shadaloo's intentions aren't clear to the world at large just yet. But one thing for certain is that they are now acting from their secret Mexico headquarters, and both fighters and civilians alike will be their prey, unless they are stopped.

Beacon of Hope

Pushed to the brink by a barrage of minor attacks, Interpol and the US Special Forces have joined together in unison to form the International Task Force. Led by Major Charlie Nash, the International Task Force is an initiative to handle both the gang war and cartel violence at the border.

The purpose of the ITF will be to fight the rising crime and terrorist activities. Its first actions? Crack down on the violence at and around Sunshine City, and to pacify the gang violence in Southtown. The group is always looking for recruits. Even the rogue nation of Illyria has not been excluded from helping, though it will need to contend with its own bounties on the international scene.

While the Novus Librarium Orbis have not officially joined the International Task Force, as it is outside their core goal of containing supernatural threats, they have a vested interest in keeping apprised of the ITF's actions as they pertain to those very supernatural threats. With the presence of Shadaloo in the shadows, it will not be long.


TBT Act 0 - Aut Vincere Aut Mori - 'The armies separated; and, it is said, Pyrrhus replied to one that gave him joy of his victory that one other such victory would utterly undo him.

On the other hand, as from a fountain continually flowing out of the city, the Roman camp was quickly and plentifully filled up with fresh men, not at all abating in courage for the loss they sustained, but even from their very anger gaining new force and resolution to go on with the war.' - Plutarch, Life of Pyrrhus - created on 14:28:43 04/11/2018 by Duke and last modified on 12:43:09 07/01/2018.
