Black Leavz

Black Leavz

Black Leavz, Grand Oak of the Dark Oaks

Black Leavz is the eccentric gang leader supreme of the Dark Oaks, a feared and numerous community of thugs, bandits and stone cold killers.  Although he might come off as a bit outlandish, don’t take his peculiar nature as a weakness.  He’s not a dude you want to catch in a bad mood.  And he’s likely to flip any second.  So, watch out!

Smarter than he looks, Black Leavz is constantly trying to prove his intelligence to those around him.  But this often makes him eat his own tongue, as his overcompensation can lead to him making himself sound less intelligent than he would like.  Nevertheless, he is a man of many words, which can be quite overpowering for most people as he uses his speech and bizarre ways to execute mind games.   These tactics are very often mistaken for him being a buffoon or just plain crazy.  Rest assured, that’s exactly what he wants, always keeping his victims on their toes, as well as giving them false comfort, never sure what to make of him, or overly sure of what to make of him.  There’s nothing better to this unique man than to…

 

“….fuck over a smarty nitty willy mutha fucka that thinks he’s too good for Black Leavz.”

– Black Leavz

 

However, Black Leavz isn’t all about himself.  He is also a man who has come to appreciate a good mind, showing admiration and respect for such.  For those he sees as having lesser minds, well, that’s a different story.  If you do fall into his “dumby list”, you will find it better to avoid him altogether.  He tends to look down on those persons who aren’t as intellectually savvy as he, or at least he views himself to be, especially the lesser ranked members of his own gang.  His demeaning treatment can be, uuuuh…..harsh.  And when you’re in his world you better expect nothing else.  Black Leavz plays by his own rules.

Holding the highest rank of Grand Oak, Black Leavz has built an empire throughout the city.  His strategic mind and tactics are unmatched by his rivals, earning him relentless loyalty from the people he considers more of a family than mere gang.  Such loyalty is demonstrated through his right hand and left hand men, E Bud and Rootie-too, who never leave their leader unprotected.

The fact that Black Leavz openly chooses to remain in the cradle of the streets rather than hide away in a more luxurious abode also brings much respect from his subjects, living with “the people” and all.  Some say this proves he is real to the cause, that he is true and hard.  Some say this just further shows he’s cray-cray!  He’d say it’s strategy….and that he just feels more comfort in the streets, where he was born and raised.

But little known to many, Black Leavz doesn’t just aim to maintain his empire at its current state.  His sites are set on expanding well beyond the streets and underground outlets his Dark Oaks openly roam.  Who knows where he has had his vast network of soldiers infiltrate….

With his Dark Oaks following his every word, Black Leavz is a force to be reckoned with.  Yes, his army has grown strong and notoriously intimidating.  One thing he always holds true to though, no matter the situation or his foe, is respect.  Question is, is Fleet intelligent enough to figure this out?

The Dark Oaks

The Dark Oaks

The Dark Oaks

One of the most feared gangs in the city, the Dark Oaks are notorious thieves, thugs and gangsters bent on strengthening and maintaining their control over the streets.  Any unfortunate soul that happens to wander into their turf better be ready to do two things; give up any belongings and pray they are able to walk away.

Black Leavz, the eccentric leader of the Dark Oaks, has made it his mission to usher in a new age for his “empire”.  He only recruits the best for his Dark Oaks.  He rewards intelligence and bravery.  And he insists upon respect among his gang members to bring a sort of unity and bond.  It might seem strange for people outside of gang life to understand, but for Black Leavz and his Dark Oaks, their environment is very family like in nature….even if it is a very rough and gritty family.

Many of the Dark Oaks members come from broken families or had rough upbringings.  Many are orphans and outcasts made to feel less than nothing throughout their lives.  It might sound weird, but Black Leavz is viewed as a father by many of his disciples, due to him taking them in and giving them purpose, giving them a home.  Aside from him being a very intimidating and in control leader, this is a big reason why the Dark Oaks follow Black Leavz.  They appreciate what he and his higher ups have done for them.  As much as his Dark Oaks soldiers fear him, they also respect him.

The Dark Oaks are Dark Oaks by choice.  Black Leavz forces no one into his gang; a very wise tactic indeed, as it gives the illusion of free will.  But once a Dark Oak there are very strict requirements that each member must adhere to in order to maintain their status as part of the family.   One such requirement is having a certain level of education.  This is why Black Leavz sees to it that all younger members of his gang finish school if possible.  For those members too old or unable to go back to an organized grade school setting, he has set up tutors to come in for daily lessons.  The most promising Dark Oaks members actually are pushed to attend college courses.  In fact, there are several members that have infiltrated well respected universities.

But it isn’t just education that separates the Dark Oaks from your average street gang.  Black Leavz holds many levels of eccentricity and uncharacteristic nature as a gang leader.  And his peculiar ways have rubbed off on his people, especially his psychological games.  Laughter is often abundant within the Dark Oaks ranks.  Many victims of their crimes have made reports of being made to feel as though what was happening was all just a joke, not taking it serious until it was too late.  Do not be mistaken, for this is exactly the intent of the Dark Oaks.  Their laughs and amusing calls hold more distraction and mental confusion than sincerity.

It isn’t the goal of the Grand Oak to have a common bunch of criminals under his wing.  Black Leavz has visions of grandeur.  He values the street game, the lifestyle.  But he knows too the power in knowledge, the necessity of incorporating the other side of the tracks into his world.  And one day he sees the Dark Oaks controlling not only the city streets, but the city itself, from the capitol to the the underground.  From the depths his empire will spread.

Indeed, the Dark Oaks are no stupid bunch, mixing brawn and intimidation tactics with intelligent schemes, techniques and structure.  If Fleet was to run into this crew of advanced thuggery will he have the smarts to get past them?  How can he earn their respect?  One thing is for certain, he wouldn’t be able to fight them all, not at least in the physical sense….
