Legion

The Legion of Thieves is a collection of short stories revolving around the organization of the same name. New Writers and Characters are always welcome!

History[]

Beginning and Demise[]

The Legion of Thieves was formed in ancient times, most likely by a child of Hermes. The Legion would steal from wealthy and corrupt individuals and distribute what they stole to the poor and helpless people of what ever city they resided in (they also kept a large amount of treasure for themselves when the bounty was plentiful). They would also take in young children off the streets and train them in the art of thievery.

The organization flourished and became increasingly powerful. However, during the 15th century a mission went horribly wrong, resulting in the exposure and eradication of the Legion. All members were put to death for their actions and their large treasure trove was seized.

Knowing of his impending demise, High Master Jacque de Voleur, hid three journals that contained the history of the Legion in a secret vault, along with his most valuable possessions. Before his death Voleur dreamed that one day the Legion would be reformed. On the last page of the journal, Voleur wrote: "As long as there are the rich, the powerful and the corrupt there must always be the swift, the smart and the silent to care from the poor, the meek and the weak."

Revival[]

600 years later, the journals were rediscovered by Xaro Leitz, Son of Erebus and Nathaniel Sparrow, Son of Hermes. After translating and deciphering the journals the two began fulfill Jacque de Voler's dream. They started recruiting demigods and established a headquarters just outside of Washington D.C. Not only do members carry out their criminal activities against corrupt politicians and businessmen, but they also take place in raids on lairs of different monsters.

Most of the money collected by the Legion today is placed in the treasury after the individual takes his/her reasonable cut. The money collected is then given to special individuals who are facing hard times or to an organization in desperate need of a donation.

However some people have had horrible crimes done against them and don't want monetary compensation. Instead they want only justice and to see the persons responsible for their pain financially destroyed. In cases like this Xaro will assign a team or ask for volunteers to get "payback" on the persons for their client. The Legion became very successful and thrived in the early years but catastrophe wasn't far away.

Schism and Death[]

A year after the Legion was founded trouble started.  Nathan started taking on dangerous missions getting several members killed in the process. Over the next few months Xaro and Nathan engaged in frequent and violent arguments to the point where weapons were drawn. On the anniversary the Legion was founded, Nathan challenged Xaro for leadership, with half the Legion standing behind him. Xaro reluctantly accepted the challenge and defeated Nathan, banishing him and his followers.

Days after their banishment, Sparrow and the outcasts, know called The Riders returned and attacked the Legion while Xaro was away. The Riders killed the remaining Legionnaires and stole the majority of the Legion's treasure, along with several powerful artifacts. For the next few years they laid low taking on secret contracts and building their forces. Xaro vowed to hunt them down and take retribution for his fallen comrades.

LoT HQ

Legion Headquarters.

Xaro established the Legion's headquarters 12 miles outside of Washington D.C, the most corrupt city in the world. The HQ is a massive building with numerous levels and countless rooms (several of which are hidden). Xaro conned the building from a corrupt senator and used money from his personal accounts to pay for the "extra features." 

C.A.T.T.[]

CATT is a highly advanced, artificial intelligence system. Her name stands for Computer Assistant To Thieves. She can control everything in the HQ and detects everything that happens with in her walls. Xaro stole her blueprints and programming from a billionaire computer genius who attempted to sell her to the highest bidder. He then wiped the creator's memories so he could never recreate Catt again.

There are dozens of rooms in the HQ, some of which are not shown on the map. 

Bedrooms- There are over a dozen bedrooms for the members of the Legion. Each room has a walk-in-closet, a bathroom, and a wall safe. Every member can customize the room to their liking as long as demolition isn't involved.

Museum- The museum is where the Legion displays some of their valuables from their most memorable missions. It can also be used as a practice area for upcoming heists.

Gym- The HQ has a fully furnished gymnasium with weights, a boxing ring, and a sauna which connects to an Olympic sized pool.

Common Room- ​The common room connects most of the bedroom. It's full of over stuffed couches and recliners. There is one wall is made entirely of TVs and the WIFI signal is strongest here.

Workshop- One of the most important rooms is the workshop. Most of the planning for missions is done here. There are rows of computers, monitors and random machines.

Magic Library- After Arthur Drake became a member of the Legion, he claimed one of the empty rooms as his own study. Strange symbols on the floor and the walls, floating books and weird plant and animal parts in jars are pretty much everywhere here. The room is poorly lit and the brightest spot is where an alchemical table is situated.

Atrium- The atrium is one of the most beautiful places in the entire HQ full of exotic plants, large trees and a lazy river. The atrium is connected to the main building via an underground tunnel. 

Xaro's Office- Xaro's Office is located somewhere in the building but is hidden from all members except Xaro and his Second in Command. It's said the most valuable and dangerous items are kept there.
