The
[shadow=black,left,300]ReynardTroupe[/shadow]
In Brief...
The Reynard Troupe is a group of mask-wearing thespians and performers that do whatever the hell they want by using their deceptive skills along with weapons, pokemon, and "props".
Their Goal...
Is non-existent. They do whatever their leader tells them to do, or they have freedom to do whatever they want. These actors are dangerous and let the freedom go to their heads. They are above the law, and can break it if they please. Life belongs to them. They can take it at will.
Their Leader...
Is a freak of a man who believes that he is the most important and amazing thing that has ever graced the universe. He is the God of all things theatre and the self proclaimed Theatre King.
His name is Thespis (named after the first actor ever) and his ego is gigantic. He does what he wants, when he wants, where he wants, because he knows he can.
Thespis is also a freak on the level of murder. Because he (as well as all Troupe members) believes he is God, he has no problem killing off people if they are in his way, or if he's bored.
Thespis wears a mask that covers his entire face. It is black with gold and silver fading and designs. At the top of the mask are prongs that could either resemble a the top of a jester hat or a crown. His attire is modeled after 19th century France and is also the color black with gold and silver features.
The Ranks...
Proletarians
Players
Minors
Playwrights
Sophocles
Majors
Thespis
The Proletarians...
Are the grunts of the Troupe. They are the bottom level and the work force. Proles do not think, make plans, or do anything except follow orders.
Proles wear plain black masks that cover their eyes and all black dress shirts tucked into dress pants.
The Players...
Are the operatives of the Troupe. They make up the majority of the population. They are the ones that carry out orders and make sure the Proles do their jobs. Although the Players are above Proles, they are actually quite similar.
Proles wear black masks that cover their eyes with a gold circle around one eye hole and a silver circle around the other. they wear similar uniforms as the Proles, but with a few gold and silver swirls here and there.
The Minors...
Are the Elites of the Troupe. There are two types of Minors: The Comedy Minors and The Tragedy Minors. Minors take care of the more important works. the jobs that are above the Players abilities but lower than the higher up's standards. Depending on which type of Minor you are, you follow a certain Major.
Minors wear masks that cover their face down to the bottom of their noses.
Tragedy Minors' masks are silver with a black hat on top. They were similar outfits as the Proles, but with silver swirls covering most of the black.
Comedy Minors' masks are gold with a black hat on top. They were similar outfits as the Proles, but with gold swirls covering most of the black.
The Playwrights...
Are the scientists of the Troupe. They create the "props". Props are the weapons and other items the Troupe uses to get their way. they make create smoke bombs, special mirrors, and anything else that can cause illusion and deception. Playwrights are geniuses in their craft of misconception.
Playwrights wear masks similar to the Minors, but instead of silver or gold, they are black and white with a checkered pattern. They wear black dress pants and a white dress shirt under their black and white checkered pattern lab coats.
Sophocles
is...
The Head Playwright. He runs the labs and watches over all prop creations. He is a madman with a passion for destruction. Although he is this way, he is actually a rather sophisticated gentleman.
He wears a mask with the same colors and patterns as the other Playwrights, but it covers his whole head, much like a helmet and has a gray X on the face. He wears a suit that is all black and white checkered, right down to the shoes.
The Majors...
Are the two second in commands of the Troupe. One is The Comedy Major and the other is The Tragedy Major.
The Comedy Major...
Is a crazy and hyperactive man. He is constantly jumping around and laughing. Nothing seems to ever clam him down or cause him to be serious. Although he acts this way, he is as merciless as everyone else. Nobody can tell if he is truly this way, or just acting the part. He has no name other than The Comedy Major.
He wears a gold mask that covers his whole face and has an elongated beak for a nose with a black hat on top. He wears a glimmering and blinding golden suit.
The Tragedy Major...
Is a depressed and troubled woman. She is also saddened by everything and nothing can make her filled with joy. She is always looking into space, as if pondering why life is so horrible. Even though she seems to find no pleasure in anything, The Tragedy Major will do what she needs to do and do it well.
She wears a silver mask that covers her whole face and has a black hat on top. The black hat sticks up on each side. She wears an extravagant, glistening silver dress complete with silver boa.
The Pokemon...
Are often Psychic types. The Troupe likes to use pokemon that can create illusions and so Psychics and ghost are much loved, but are not limited to. Any pokemon can be used as long as it is justified that it can trick the human mind.

The Troupe's hideout is in what looks like an abandoned theater. It even looks like one, until you go backstage...
