Gang Doctrinal Positions (G.D.P.)

 

 - Organisational Doctrine

 

The ROD is built upon strict hierarchy principles. Gang members are issued a colour code, and receive perks and duties in accordance with said code. The codes are:

 

 - RED

 - ORANGE

 - YELLOW

 - GREEN

 - BLUE

 - INDIGO

 - VIOLET

 

Higher rank signifies more perks, but even the lowliest RED shall not suffer, and he shall have good reason to stand tall even above the INFRARED - those below him, the non-members.

 

RED, ORANGE, (YELLOW): The "troopers", of varying experience and skill. Reds will be new recruits, and people demoted from Orange. Bulk of forces will be Red/Orange, with Yellow being specialists/drill sarges/etc.

(YELLOW), GREEN, BLUE: Officers/commanders, people with proven strategic and tactical ability.

INDIGO: People of vital importance to the organization. Mainly put here to be kept off the street and close to the Violet Brigade.

VIOLET: Us.

 

 - - Policy for Division

 

Members are, in general, not assigned to given teams, but are a "pool" of force available to commandeer. How often you get to go do exciting stuff (earn your keep) depends on three things: 1) What you're good at, 2) How long since you last were on a mission, and 2) If you're asked for by name. Commanders put together forces by asking for men with given specialties (heavy weapons, snipers, etc), which are then randomly alloted, or by asking for named people. This is to keep commanders from fomenting rebellion, and fosters loyalty to the gang, more than to sub-Violet leaders.

 

 - - Policy for payments

 

The ROD will issue you a base stipend, which covers basic costs of living, at all levels. Increases:

 

ORANGE: +Insurance. If you die on a mission, or in gang activities, half your base stipend will be paid to your family for two months after your death.

YELLOW: +Housing. Gang will ensure you are basically housed in accordance with your family needs and so forth.

GREEN: +Insurance, 75%. +Commander; allowed to represent Father Sebastian's wishes.

BLUE: +Insurance, 100%. +Housing, well-housed.

INDIGO: See below.

 

Increases are cumulative. In addition to these base advantages, members are each entitled to the spoils of war in missions they undertake according to the following division: Red 5 %, Orange 5 %, Yellow 5 %, Green 5 %, Blue 5 %. Mission commander gets 5 % to divide out amongst members according to his best judgement (subject to Falsner approval), and a personal 5 % bonus in addition to his rank bonus. If there are no members of a rank, the gang gets the share. The rest, 65+ %, are considered gang income.

 

 - - Policy for Promotion

 

 - To Red

/He who fights with me shall be my brother/

 

Promotion to Red implies joining the organization. It is a simple procedure, consisting of an interview with Father Sebastian and his right-hand man Falsner. The candidate must show a desire to better his lot in life, and display aptitude at some skill useful to the organization. Demands will vary with the size and power of the ROD. Candidates who are turned down are free to reapply, but must be sponsored by a member of rank Orange or above if previously turned down.

 

 - To Orange

From Red to Orange, as a new recruit, there will be an up-or-out principle. You'll need to progress to Orange within your first five missions for the gang, otherwise you'll lose your ability. Progress to Orange requires two positive reports from the mission commander, and is otherwise automatic. Up-and-out does not apply for people demoted, who can stay Red for as long as they like (or we like...)

 

 

 - To Yellow

Promotion to Yellow requires shown aptitude within a given specialty, or proven tactical ability. Recommendation from at least three separate mission commanders (for tactical) or three other leaders (specialty), Blue or above.

 

Yellows serve as non-com and 2nd in command on missions.

 

 - To Green

Greens are "blues-in-training". HIGH loyalty required.

 

 - To Blue

Blue is the primary "leadership" corps.

 

 - To Indigo

Indigo ain't a promotion. This promotion means you're so special, Violet wants you nearby all the time - or at least keeping you doing what you're doing.

 

 - To Violet

Ain't happening, kid.
