24 Hour Pawn Shop

TYPE: Official Business

BACKGROUND: A further development of the concept I had for the Cash 4 Gold shop. I see the Pawn Shop as a great opportunity to improve the petty crime rate of Hathian.Where other ventures and gangs are msotly focused on violence and capital crimes, the Pawn Shop will focus on building storyarcs and daily events for the street hustler, thieves and burglars. There exists many exampels of events in the past, that the Kogas/Vipers have hosted, such as Bloc Parties and the like. Its a wealth of already proven ideas that can be put back into play. The real event line would be to create day-to-day event by guiding players to interact with others in a criminal fashion, for then to return for more scenes.

 

UNIQUE: While a place a person can pawn and buy goods, it will also function as not only a fence, but a fence that encourages and hires people to commit the very crime that keeps it in business. For me any business doesn't just represent the business type itself, with its own agenda, but also an opportunity for new players to get an easy accessible start down the criminal path. They would simply be able to walk in and either get a job working at the Pawn Shop, or get a job acquiring wealth belonging to others out on the street. This is the plug'n'play mentality towards new players, getting them started with smaller limited storyarcs, they can then build onto at their own leisure. Tying it into the darkweb, it could go even further, being the physical safe lcoation that holds ther goods before they exchange hands.

 

EXPERIENCE: Been palying in CD since 2008. While some of my dieas haven't been as successful as I'd like, others have put a mark on CD history, and is at times still mentioned. Been in HPD, gangs, run gangs, and otherwise been known to be a petty criminal formost of my stay here. I've had several businesses, been Dean of CU and invovled in all three 3 sims in CD.

 

IDEAS: That's the beauty of it, I engage them by encouraging them to engage others, a healthy rp eco system.

 

OTHER: Would be cool to organize a mass GTA of police crusiers and have them all chopped for parts, perhaps in collab with the Hathian Garage.
