The Terrors

The Terrors are a gang of supervillains operating out of the Crown Atlantic docks in Southside. Their most infamous member is King Shark, however the squad has no fixed leadership, and each member lends their own expertise where appropriate. Other core members include Sea Snake, Chuckles, Despair, and Janet Litchfield. The squad also recruits amenable supervillains on a temporary basis as specialists. In addition to its metahuman members, there are a number of ordinary criminals who work for the Terrors. These men and women are equipped with high-tech weaponry and wear signature rebreather masks stylized to look like predatory maws.
The Terrors primarily run heists, hire their services as mercenaries, smuggle weapons, and engage in piracy. They also perform maritime salvage operations. Because many members have nautical expertise, their crimes often revolve around the ocean and watercraft, but they are more than capable of striking inland.
More rogues than true villains, the Terrors have a policy of avoiding lethal force in most situations. They also refuse to engage in more insidious crimes such as drug running and human trafficking, and have driven some of the gangs that do so out of their territory. In a few occasions, they’ve even teamed up with heroes. Though outlaws, the squad has a mixed reputation, with some Port Atlanticans - especially Southsiders - considering them anti-heroes.

Gangsters with elite weaponry, alien technology, or magical artifacts acquired through the gang’s smuggling and salvaging operations.

For underwater operations, specially-trained gangsters are outfitted with armored wetsuits with rebreather masks and retractable fins, and armed with amphibious firearms.

Common Goons

Dockworkers: Most Terrors gangsters work for the gang’s front company, Crown Atlantic Maritime Services. They are usually encountered in their company-issue blue-gray jumpsuits, and have basic weapons like knives, guns, and blunt objects.
