Gambler's character started in growing up in the town of parsons as an orphan along with his brother Gunslinger.

They were taken in by a local neighborhood woman and raised. Eventually over the years Gambler and Gunslinger enlist in the Marine Corps. They are highly decorated soldiers in expert rifleman ship and tactical situations. Carrying out many combat missions while overseas. Gambler became a disgrace soldier after disobeying a direct command and allowing a fellow soldier to die in order to save his brothers life. Gunslinger is unaware of this until years after. He is dishonorably discharged and spends 3 years in the Memphis Maximum security prison due to involuntary manslaughter. ( Or i had the thought of his brother testifying on his behalf and him not serving time at all. I'm not sure yet.) He goes back to the town. Begins taking on drugs, alcohol, gambling and occasional robbery and spending time with his other old neighborhood friend The Driver. This character will eventually band with the characters to be the getaway driver. He's a normal guy who has driven trucks all his life and finally wants out when he sees the chance. He is fairly tight with Gambler since he brings him on the job. They start discussing the problems that have been happening in the neighborhood. Vandalism, Terror and Fear tactics etc. in order to drive the residents out for the lots to become vacant. The reason behind this is D.G. Wood. The richest real estate tycoon who owns the town. He also dabbles in drugs, prostitution and various other things. Including several officers on the police force bought and paid for. Some of which are his own personal hit squad. So Gambler thinks on this through the night and goes to sleep. While the night moves on several Molotov cocktails are thrown into several houses along with hand grenades. Gambler and Trucker make it out alive but their mother perishes in the flames after Gambler almost kills himself trying to rescue her resulting in a fight between Trucker and Gambler. The neighborhood is in perish. Gambler decides to make the one decision that can change a life forever, He calls his now estranged brother and tells him what has happened. They decide to meet to discuss what is going to be done about this. Gunslinger brings in another teammate, an old army buddy named Brain that Gambler and Slinger worked intelligence on missions together. He is a family man with either a baby or a baby on the way. He is at a dead end road and needing the score for a life with his family. They meet at an out of town bar and discuss the three robberies that are to take place in order to make things right.

ROBBERY ONE

A Simple bank heist with crown control and a hit and run with the money. Simple. Smooth. But also terror and cold inducing.


ROBBERY 2

An armored car robbery. Slinger and Gambler kidnap two security guards for an armored car company stealing their disguises. They appear on the scene of the truck claiming to the other drivers that the other guys were sick, with some slick talking the guards allow them to enter the van with Gambler slipping up front to the driver and pulling a 22. Berreta to his head.

Gambler: "Start the vehicle and drive exactly where i say. No stalling and If you touch an alarm I pull this trigger. Now move."

Slinger has pulled his firearm on the other two guards in the back keeping them under control. Keep in mind that these two characters are trained combat soldiers.

The truck is driven to a designated spot where Trucker and Brain are waiting with masks and weapons. They exit the truck pulling the drivers out one by one and zip tighing their hands and feet together while Gambler and Slinger load the money into the seperate truck or van etc.

ROBBERY 3

After the two previous hiests the main villian has an idea of who the bandits are being as he knows of them. The team moves in for it's final robbery in casual clothing and plain masks. They are a bit unfocused on the high of the successfull previous robberies that they do not realize that the guards and tellers are all part of D.G. Wood. A shootout occurs after a tense moment and the guards are killed. Gambler notices a badge on them while searching a coprse of one of them trying to figure out what had happened. He sends Trucker out to check the street to see if the heat was near. He sees a line of cop cars waiting outside. The robbery a complete goat ****.

But those are just general outlines for the story. The characters will make the plot with some filler to equal it all out. But this should give you a general idea of what film is about. Hope your interested.

Ohh and just for the hell of it.. I'll be playing the character of The Gambler which is a default name until i can choose a suitable one for my character just like the rest of the characters.
