Roju 21 - Level 3 Application

Crank · June 5, 2023

Rogue 21 is a skilled and highly trained unit of soldiers. We have years of experience in handling unexpected threats such as ambushes and guerrilla warfare. A strong sense of duty and honor guides us and we're proud of the sacrifices we've made to protect and serve our country. The world has undergone a transformation, leading to our redefined purpose and objective. In order to thrive, we operate as a criminal organization, however, we uphold a code of honor and a strong sense of justice. We, Rogue 21, leverage our expertise and resources to combat the corruption and injustices people have to witness. Though we are viewed as a threat to the status quo, our determination to fight for justice and protect the people remains unwavering.

As the war in Iraq rages on, 125,000 U.S. and British soldiers and Marines are on the ground, with plans to add 100,000 more by the end of April. The U.S. military also calls on special forces for covert operations. But they're not the only ones fighting. Private military companies (PMCs) like Titanium Defence Services are also working for the United States. They provide essential support to the armed forces, such as supply runs, logistics convoy escorts, VIP protection, and live ammunition training.

On April 6, 2003, Division 21 of Titanium Defence Services was tasked with escorting a logistics convoy of the U.S. army to forces in combat in Baghdad. But due to poor intelligence, the convoy unknowingly entered hostile territory and was ambushed. Despite the heavy casualties, Division 21 emerged victorious. But their faith in their superiors was shaken, as many lives were lost due to a preventable mistake.

Hostilities officially ended on May 1, but not before 138 U.S. troops were killed and Division 21 suffered 21 casualties out of 45 men. After the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq, U.S. contractors extended deals with their "private security guards." Titanium Defence Services, in particular, was granted a contract renewal for their exceptional services during the war. They were tasked to defend fortified compounds across the country, equipped with radar, reconnaissance drones, and ambush-protected vehicles. Division 21 was assigned to one of these compounds.

Over the years, Division 21 gained valuable experience in handling unexpected threats such as ambushes and guerrilla warfare. But a new conflict emerged in 2014 with the outbreak of the Iraqi Civil War. Titanium Defence Services and Division 21 were part of the Combined Joint Task Force - Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR), a joint task force established by the US-led international coalition against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. With their experience, Division 21 was successful in their mission, taking no casualties while executing escorts of coalition transports and combat operations.

However, during one mission, things turned out differently. Two convoys, one led by Division 21 and one by Division 13, were passing through the desert of Iraq to supply troops when Division 13 was ambushed and badly hit. They called for help over the radio, but high-command could not immediately dispatch troops as they were still preparing. Division 21 requested to help them out since they were close by, but high-command denied the request due to the danger and risk that the supplies could not be delivered.

Division 21 was aware that the supplies they were transporting were vital for the survival of the troops on the frontlines and that if they didn't act fast, many lives could be lost. They decided to disobey high-command's order and help out their fellow soldiers, even if it meant risking the supplies. Shortly after, they arrived at the skirmish, taking out the hostiles efficiently one-by-one. The battle was won, and the supplies were delivered on time.

High-command may not have appreciated their disobedience, but Division 21 knew they had made the right decision. They saved the lives of their comrades and fulfilled their duty as soldiers to protect and serve. The contractors quickly informed Titanium Defence Services of their actions, and while they were not officially punished, Division 21 knew that they had crossed a line and their actions could have consequences in the future.

The experience had a profound effect on Division 21 and their faith in their superiors was shaken, but they knew that they had upheld their duty and honor as soldiers. They were proud of what they had accomplished and knew that they would always put the safety of their fellow soldiers before any orders from high-command. They continued to serve with distinction in the years that followed, but the memory of that day stayed with them, a reminder of the sacrifices they were willing to make for the sake of their comrades.

Division 21, a highly trained and skilled unit of soldiers, found themselves without a purpose or a mission after the war in Iraq came to an end. With years of experience in handling unexpected threats such as ambushes and guerrilla warfare, they felt that their sacrifices had been in vain. As the U.S. withdrew its troops, they didn't know how to adjust to civilian life and felt like they were being used and discarded by the government and the military-industrial complex.

Titanium Defence Services, the private military company they were contracted to, had been granted a contract renewal for their services. However, the nature of the work of Division 21 had changed and they were no longer tasked with fighting on the frontlines but with providing security and protection to corporate interests and wealthy individuals in Iraq.

Seeing this as a betrayal of their duty and values, Division 21 didn't want to be part of this new reality but didn't know what to do.
One day, they were given the task to protect a convoy of weapons and equipment that were being shipped to another private military company. Knowing that this equipment could be used to harm innocent people, they decided to take action and intercept the convoy, taking the weapons and equipment for themselves. They knew that this was a criminal act, but felt that it was the right thing to do as they believed that they were taking the equipment out of the hands of those who would use it for evil purposes and that they were doing what they had been trained to do: protect and serve.

After the heist, Division 21 found themselves in a difficult situation. They knew that they would be hunted by the government and other private military companies for stealing a large amount of military equipment and weapons. But instead of running and hiding, they decided to form a new unit, a criminal organization that would use their expertise and resources to fight against the injustices and corruption they had seen in the world. They called themselves Rogue 21, and quickly became one of the most powerful and feared criminal organizations in Iraq. Rogue 21 became a symbol of hope and resistance, earning the title of heroes among the people. With a new purpose and mission, the team was determined to bring about a change in the world. They were willing to take risks and break the law, as long as it was in the name of justice and honor. Their weapons and equipment were never used to harm innocent individuals or participate in illicit activities such as the support of terrorist organizations or human trafficking.

As time passed, Division 21's power and influence grew. The team had built a network of allies and contacts, and had access to resources and information that gave them an edge over their competitors. They were respected and feared by their enemies, and loved and supported by the people. However, their actions also caught the attention of the government and military-industrial complex, who saw them as a threat to the status quo and hunted them down. Nevertheless, Rogue 21 was determined to continue their fight for justice and the protection of the people.

After their rebellion in Iraq, Rogue 21 decided to move to the United States and station themselves in the state of San Andreas. Rogue 21 believe that the United States would provide them with more opportunities and resources to continue their fight for justice and the protection of the people. San Andreas, known for its diverse population and progressive political climate, was seen as a place where they would find support and allies in their cause. Additionally, the state's proximity to Mexico and its border issues would also provide Rogue 21 with new opportunities to put their skills and resources to use in protecting and serving the marginalized communities. They also believed that the state's robust economy and its presence of large corporations would make it an ideal location to carry out their operations to hold these corporations accountable for their actions.

These are our gang rules that EVERYONE has to follow and acknowledge. The principle is ROGUE.

(R)eliability: Support Rogue 21 through reliability. Stay loyal to the gang and its members. Moreover, stay loyal to our alliances and help them when they ask. Be reliable for them as well!
