Roleplay and Character Hooks

This call is for characters who thrive on the **fringe of biker society**. We're not just looking for the bikers themselves but for the people who make their lifestyle possible and who operate in the shadows around them. If you're interested in a gritty, dangerous world where survival is all about who you know and what you're willing to do, this could be your chance to join.

Potential Roles

  • Mechanics: You're the grease-stained backbone keeping their bikes on the road. A trusted wrench turner who knows how to fix anything with wheels.
  • Medical Personnel: Maybe you're a former army medic, a back-alley surgeon, or just someone who knows how to patch up a knife wound without asking questions.
  • Criminal Contacts: Whether you're a fence, a smuggler, or a black-market dealer, you're in the know about who's moving product, what the cops are sniffing around, and who's about to make a big score.
