The Gangster Planet

The Gangster Planet

More than a century after a devastating series of cataclysms known only as the "Collapse" life grows harsher and stranger for the lives of Earthlings. Cannibal sociopaths, cruel motorcycle gangs, and a brutal empire all struggle for dominance in the ruins of the United States. Tanya (born Tiye) is the last child between the Bone Soldier Nat "Bones" Miller and his ex-girlfriend Captain Minerva Grace. Tanya or "Tiye" as she was known by her father for the briefest moments before she was named properly, was raised exclusively by her Pirate mother and Pacific islander Grandmother. Outgoing and extremely courageous, her trusting nature is a defining attribute that carries Tanya or "T" in and out of trouble. Until the passing of her nana she believed her father was a pirate that had died in a surfing accident. Once the truth is revealed that she is a descendent of one of Earth's greatest military lineages Tanya sets out on a personal Odyssey across the mysterious American continent as it is cheaper and more practical than going to college. Columbus "Ghoul" Nelson by nature is an extremely quiet man. Preferring to keep to himself held up in his cabin just outside a small Alaskan community near Eagle. In the summer he ventures deep into the Yukon arriving usually in Husila. Valuing privacy above all else Ghoul, or Ghoulie as their mother referred to them, is reluctant to open up about either his past or preference for the arctic tundra. His father Shane Mac Nelson passed on his skill and one hundred fifty year old rifle. A crackshot with his M1 Garand and custom built 500 Smith and Wesson revolver, Ghoul is a man of extremely subtle pleasures. When it comes to violence he does enjoy it to a degree as he got the thrill of the hunt at a young age. However, when he transferred that to people as he got older and employed by Diamond Eyes and the Raven Company he grew very quickly tired of killing people he doesn't know for others. The money and experience traveling around the Pacific was incomparable but as what was left of his family life dies with his mother, he is certain that killing and capturing Pocky will give him a way out of the violent industry.
