Crime is a parasite, leeching upon the innocent and defenseless citizens by violence and control. Every city, town, and street has been corrupted by the lowliest of low because of crime. None does so as extravagantly as the Joker Gang, a crew of criminals, mercenaries, and maniacs who took an iron grip over Gotham City, or the Brazilian Militia, the drug cartel who parade the favelas of Rio de Janeiro as their stomping grounds. Gunfire and explosions will rock the slums and catch all of the poor in the crossfires, but only one gang can be...THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR!!!

Joker Gang


The Joker Gang is comprised of various members at varying times. Five small-time criminals served under the Joker in the robbery of Gotham National Bank, four of which were methodically or accidentally killed off in the heist. The Joker himself posed as one of his thugs, going by the call-sign Bozo. Going by one of the people involved, Grumpy's response about splitting it up into six shares instead of five, the heist wasn't the first time where Joker disguised himself as one of his own thugs when they participated in a crime of some sort.

Another group of the Joker's thugs crashed a fund raiser for new D.A., Harvey Dent. Outside one of the Joker's thugs tried to ambush Bruce Wayne, but Wayne easily defeated him. Also, the thugs (including the Joker) fought Batman, but made a speedy escape after throwing Rachel Dawes out of a shattered window. There were seven members of the Party Thugs. Before Commissioner Loeb's funeral, the Joker and his thugs kidnapped some Honor Guards who were to be at the funeral and took their guns and uniforms to assasinate Mayor Garcia. They tied up the real Honor Guards in Melvin White's apartment. At the funeral, the Joker shot Lieutenant Gordon, who got in front of the Mayor. The Joker and his thugs escaped, while Thomas Schiff was shot in the leg and kidnapped by Harvey Dent.

The remaining thugs quickly aided Joker in his takeover of Gotham City, capturing several civilians and prisoners aboard cargo ships during the evacuation of Gotham. After Joke was apprehended by Gotham City Police and the Batman, most of the Joker's Gang was either arrested or sent fleeing from Gotham.

Brazilian Militia


The Brazilian Militia is a criminal faction that reside in Rio de Janeiro where they come into conflict with Task Force 141. Rather than a real, official militia, they are little more than a criminal gang, but they are a very large and well-armed one, sporting a colorful mix of civilian garb and military hardware.

Unlike common gangs, the Militia is very well armed and numbers in the hundreds. It is likely that they comprise the entire gangster population of Rio. Though not the most efficient soldiers, they are sufficiently well-equipped and well-led to prove a very serious threat to Task Force 141, using their numbers and hardware to put up a heavy fight. They are ferocious in combat, willing to engage the enemy in close-quarters combat to finish them off, and make rudimentary attempts towards tactics to surprise the enemy, such as hiding behind doors or corners and bursting unexpectedly from rooftops or windowsills.

The Militia swiftly mobilized to counterattack Task Force 141, who'd arrived in Rio to apprehend the Militia's main supplier, Alejandro Rojas. Fighting ferociously against the special forces group, the Militia was ultimately unsuccessful in stopping the Task Force from interrogating Rojas and escaping the favelas onboard Nikolai's pave low.

X-Factors
X-Factor- Joker Gang / Brazilian Militia

Discipline- 60 / 70

The Joker Gang is a very fickle bunch, willing to betray each other the moment things get inconvenient or dangerous for themselves. The only reason they follow the Joker is out of fear or sheer insanity, neither of which indicates strong discipline on the battlefield. The Brazilian Militia have enough organization to assemble an adequate defense against Task Force 141, and even presented a challenge to them. Holding firm against an elite special forces unit indicates the Militia's willingness to defend their turf.

Audacity- 85 / 75

As shown by their broad daylight heists and several terrorist attacks throughout Gotham City, the Joker Gang is more than willing to engage their opponents first. The Joker Gang is definitely used to making the first move, regardless of the subtlety of their crimes. The Militia, meanwhile, still operates as an underground crime syndicate, preferring to keep their operations as behind closed doors as possible. Although definitely willing to display their power, they prefer to be left alone so to keep their markets untouched.

Experience- 70 / 60

The Joker Gang may have only been active for a few short months, but they managed to do quite a bit during that time. The Joker Gang quickly emerged as the main crime syndicate after they took over Gotham City's crime world, with their sole competition being the Batman. Most of the gang is also made up of career criminals, as well. The Militia has had their fair share of bouts with law enforcement as well, even tangling with special forces as well. Despite that, they're perhaps the only syndicate in Rio, making their direct competition almost nonexistant.

Killer Instinct- 90 / 80

Comprised of career criminals and lunatics released from Arkham, the Joker Gang cares very little about who or what gets caught in the crossfire. They strike indiscriminately, willing to kill any civilian or police officer that gets in their way, even using civilians as bait. Meanwhile, the Militia displays little regard for the safety of the favelas' citizens either. However, they also need the favela population to serve as a front for their operations, so they also try to keep them under control.

Mental Health- 60 / 80

The Joker Gang is comprised of absolute lunatics, and most are Asylum patients or serial killers. The Joker himself is an absolute madman, and his men follow suit. The Militia have never shown any severe mental conditions that can affect their psyche in combat.
