Gangsta life roleplay (Gangsters?)

You are a young American raised in Latin America (country of your choice), with a local accent, family codes, and a mixed culture. After years living abroad, you finally return to the United States and settle in California to finish your university studies (you are at least 17 years old. Choose your preferred age). But nothing is under control anymore: new (fictional) gangs are emerging, neighborhoods have changed, and all the underworld gang members seem to be making their moves. You decide... You live outside that world, but are vulnerable to becoming a victim of one, you join a gang in some way... or you risk creating your own, taking full responsibility. What you choose will determine the course of your life... Good luck.
