Triggerman

“People in this city need somebody they can count on. We got plenty  of freaky ass bats running around chasing after the other colorful  nutjobs, but who’s lookin’ out for the people on the street? Not all  criminals have a themed costume, and not all victims are obvious.  There’s enough fear going around in this city; people could use a real  protector, someone that can be a… a bastion of hope. I can be that.”

QUESTIONS FOR CREATORS

     “Now yah just ain’t playin’ fair!”

“ALRIGHT- ALRIGHT- get yer bloody hands off me!” —– being dragged inside by two henchmen. scourge wasn’t TOO collaborative, given they picked him off the street and brought him here. the two push him inside the room before they make their leave. he rolls his shoulders to fix his jacket before his eyes go to land on sully. … ah. so THIS is how it’s gonna be.

he takes a few steps forward with arms outstretched. a pathetic excuse for a ‘bow’, if you well. “BONJOUR.” he’d greet through a sly smile. all before resting his arms as his side. “so yer th’ cheeky cunt tha’ wanted t’see me so bad.”

You want a quote? I’ll give you one.

People aren’t important. Not as a whole. Everyone runs around like they’ve got a BIG S on their chest for “special,” but the actual gift of genius, of work ethic, of aspiration, is rarer than a white tiger. That’s why you see people throughout history rising above the masses. Those are the changers. Those are the doers. You are not important.

These are the people in Sully’s innermost circle  and are immutable across all his various verses unless explicitly stated. All but Sophia are NPCs, though open to being played by others if anyone is interested in doing so.

Full Name: Theodore “Teddy” Sullivan            

Relationship: Older Brother            

Thick as the thieves they’d grow up to be ever since childhood, the two have an unshakeable bond. He and Teddy were both introduced to the world of crime from a young age, and while Sully remained a direct part of it, Teddy shifted the focus of his hustle to working from within the opposition; he got a job in the GCPD in the pocket of the Falcones. He’s also not above giving his baby brother a tip here and there.  

@shesgotliesfordays

Full Name:Sophia “Sophie” Sullivan nee Solano        

Relationship: Wife (Seperated)            

Sully has stolen more than a few women’s hearts in his day, but the first one that’s ever managed to get her mitts on his is Sophia Solano. He caught her trying to pull a fast one on Teddy, and while Sully was impressed by her level of game, he couldn’t sit back and do nothing. Despite interfering with her mark, it turned out the fascination was mutual. They tumbled headfirst into a reckless romance and married far too quickly than either was really prepared for. It didn’t take long for things to fall apart (Sully’s career wasn’t conducive to married life and settling down never fit Sophie right), but the love between the two never faded. Even though Sophie travels all over, the two still meet up every now and again. No other woman has ever touched him in quite the same way, even all these years later. They’re exactly right and exactly wrong for each other in all the best and worst ways. Even though they just can’t seem to make it work, she always finds her way back to Gotham right around Sully’s birthday and for just those 24 hours they act like it’s old times all over again.

Full Name: Nathaniel Banks

Relationship: Biological Son

A few months after one of Sophie’s birthday visits, Sully got the call that she was having a kid. They both knew neither of them was quite fit to be a parent, and it was decided that they’d give their little boy up. Being placed with the Banks family in Metropolis, Nathaniel has grown up ignorant of his birth parents’ identities, and Sully has made sure it stays that way. Despite checking in on the boy now and again, Sully feels that keeping his son as far away from his life as possible is the best thing that can be done for him.

Full Name: Ezekiel “Geeky Zeke” Blackburn

Relationship: Childhood Best Friend/Personal Tech Guy/CEO of Sullivan Incorporated.            

Sully’s best friend and confidant. Sully and Zeke grew up together, and while Zeke never involved himself in the crime-focused life Sully indulged in, he never knocked his friend’s hustle. From a young age, Zeke showed an aptitude for tinkering, and as they got older and Sully gained more and more resources he supported his friend’s desire to hone his craft. When Sully decided to take up the mantle of The Triggerman, he enlisted Zeke’s help in making sure he was prepared. Zeke has never had any interest in putting his skills to use for any of the other various rogues of the city, so Sully’s gear has always been top notch and unique to him. In exchange, Sully has always made sure his day one is well compensated.

Full Name: Xavier “Mr. X” Dalton      

Relationship: Friend/Attorney/Fixer      

As he made designs on taking both his criminal and legitimate pursuits to greater heights, Sully recognized that he was going to need someone to watch his back and help him navigate the legality or lack thereof of his actions. He discovered Xavier Dalton as a young but stellar lawyer, known for having a spotless record no matter the client or severity of the crime(s). Sully was quick to snatch him up and Mr. X, as he came to be called, has been watching Sully’s back ever since.

Full Name: Marcus “1 Cent” Booth      

Relationship: Friend/Colleague      

Sully and Marcus met when both were doing work for Two-Face. The two simply hit it off an got to chilling even after Sully’s job for Dent was up. He’s one of the few in Sully’s inner circle that knows just how wild it is to work for the crazies Gotham has to offer. Sully took to calling him “1 Cent” as a nod to their mutual former employer and the fact that Marcus was just a small part of the whole.

Full Name: Tremaine “Payday/Trey” Patterson      

Relationship: Friend/Mentee      

While hanging around some of his seedier contacts, Sully caught wind of a couple of up and comers that pulled off some pretty big scores practically out of nowhere. He followed their budding career for a bit before, to his surprise, they tracked him down. They’d heard about his reputation and wanted to check him out for themselves. He ultimately took the two of them under his wing and helped find a balance between the money they were making and managing the attention they were getting before it got out of hand. Payday earned his name for his focus on consistently making more money, though his greed was tempered through his time with Sully.

Full Name: Michael “Ponyboy” Curtis      

Relationship: Friend/Mentee      

Ponyboy and Payday have been attached at the hip practically from birth. Their parents were all friends, so the two naturally grew up together. Whether it was getting in trouble or getting paid, the two have always done it together. He’s the more friendly and calm of the two of them, but is no less capable or dedicated when it comes to pulling jobs. He has always heeded Sully’s guidance most closely.

Full Name: Luther Pearce “Terminator” Sammuels

Relationship: Bodyguard/Head of Security at Sullivan Incorporated

Luther is a consummate professional, and one of the few in the inner circle who isn’t in any way involved in Sully’s less than legal activities. He’s aware of them, but focuses solely on his job of keeping Sully alive when he’s showing his face in public and that things are running smooth at the company. Nicknamed “Terminator” for his icy disposition and unwavering dedication to his objectives, Luther has more than shown himself to be money well spent.

Full Name: Lauryn “Clemency” Jacobs

Relationship: Driver/Informant
