Part interest check, part plotting!
Sylus is a crime lord where he comes from, the unchallenged leader of an entire district that serves as a hub for crime, illicit trade, experimental research, and is strictly off-limits to civilians. Since he arrived in Ellipsa he has been taking the measure of the Underground and crime gangs here and for the most part has found them wanting. He's unimpressed and hasn't found it difficult to make a name for himself with them and around the Casino and Underground Mall.
One of the four 'suits' gangs has caught his attention, however, in a way that the others haven't. He finds the operations of the Hearts gang to be something more than worthy of complete eradication (we don't approve of human experiments in this house) and has decided to finally make a move on doing something about that.
While this could be something he could probably accomplish by himself, that wouldn't be any fun. So I'm trying to open it up to other people being involved as much as possible.
Around the 7th of February Sylus will put up a network post declaring his intentions. This will be the 'in' for characters who want to come along to do anything from making a lot of noise to outright sabotage and combat, though Sylus will be reserving dealing with the head of the snake for himself. He does intend to just cut said head off (this means murder). I'm open to having him persuaded to not do a lot of murders but if anyone wants to try we'd probably have to talk it through as he definitely sees this as the easiest way to solve the problem.
Once the Hearts gang is dealt with their base will be open for examination and retrieval of any research/subjects they didn't dispose of on their way out. While they won't be utterly destroyed they will be greatly reduced in number and on the run, and won't be making any kind of comeback for a while.
Sylus himself won't be taking over the gang or any existing one, but after this is likely to be starting his own (name pending). I'd look to put a log up for the actual raid around the 9th, with an aim to have everything ICly resolved before the TDM goes up on the 13th.

TL;DR
• Sylus is going to take down the Hearts gang because they're awful and will be opening the floor for cannon fodder assistance.
• IC Network Post 06 Feb 26
• IC Log Post 09 Feb 26
• Hearts Gang will be severely reduced afterwards and their base will be open for rummaging.
• ???
• Profit, probably.
