THE CREW
Outside the
city of Shangrila to the South the road leads into the
Great Desert where the Death Toll Motorcycle club has
made its home right on the borders of the Badlands. The
Death Toll bikers are a group of rough men and a small
number of chicks. Though there
are very few women in the Toll they are not to be thought
of lightly and can take care of themselves. The men and
women in this camp can be quiet or wild, sadistic and
vicious, or laid back and friendly. They can be hard or
have their soft spots. There is no stereotype. They share
the love of the open road, their bikes and a rejection
of the social norm.
Death Toll
is welcoming to new bikers who are passing through the
desert on their way here or there. Guests are welcome
to pitch a tent or whatever in the camping grounds of
the camp.
Although the
founder of Death Toll was the necromancer Taker, he has
long since left the camp. This lead to a very unusual
situation in an outlaw biker club, a female came to hold
the leadership of the gang. Fiercely loyal to the club
Baby keeps things running and wheels
and deals. There are some who believe the Toll actually
consider Baby to be more of a mascot than a leader, a
girl with one foot in the cage. It cannot be disputed,
however, that by whatever means she has the loyalty of
the Toll and they follow this strange little pixie of
a girl who looks like an angel and does everything else
like a demon!
The Biker Camp
can be a very violent place. The members of the Death
Toll are all capable of loosing tempers and swinging punches
even on each other. Baby would be hard pressed to control
such situations. Thus the one to keep order in the club
very often has to be the strongest and probably capable
of the most brutality. The Death Toll Sergeant at Arms
is Kruegan. He keeps the boys
in line and from killing each other, keeps the "edge"
on the party and makes sure the slaves don't get too relaxed.
In the environment
of the game itself there are members of the club, prospective
members and associates or friends of the club as well
as guest in the camp, camp bitches and caged slaves. The
players who join the camp in any of the above roles come
and go. Some are there as regular fixtures, some play
for a few months or a few days and vanish, never to return
or to return spasmodically. Therefore, no comprehensive
list of characters exists on this site. However, in the
main yard of the camp there is code that allows anyone
to see a list of player character who are members of the
Toll (+bikers). Information is available on these characters
by doing a +finger <name>.
In addition
to player characters there are NPCs (Non Player Characers),
which are available for players to emit where, required.
