the umbrella academy roleplay.

a funky lil' au

a crime syndicate AU in which the powers still exist, but each sibling took a path to organised crime.
☆ LUTHER ☆
his group is more of a chaotic good group than anything; bending and occasionally breaking laws to help others.
✧has a strong rivalry with Diego's group.
✧works closely with Allison's group.
★ DIEGO ★
also more of a chaotic good group; they have people working in the police department that bring information to HQ before they attempt to help out.
✦obviously rivals with Luther's group.
✦occasionally works with Klaus' group.
☆ ALLISON ☆
they have eyes everywhere, and are the most influential- there's no keeping secrets from them.
✧obviously works with Luther's group.
✧heavily rivals Vanya's group.
★ KLAUS ★
the most underestimated but one of the most powerful, co-run by Ben (even if he's dead, he's still very helpful). they specialise in underground drug operations, and are the only ones able to sneak under Allison's radar.
✦works closely with Diego and Five.
✦no rivalries- his and Five's groups together are too much trouble for anyone to directly rival them.
☆ FIVE ☆
kind of like The Commission, but they make sure that the best situation for humanity's wellbeing is the situation brought to reality.
✧the most powerful syndicate, especially when paired up with Ben/Klaus'.
✧if you can really count them as rivals, the Commission rivals them pretty hard.
★ VANYA ★
she kind of just does her own thing- her group is just composed of musicians with powers that do whatever the fuck they want. in the end, they cause the apocalypse (Apocalypse Suite).
✦may not be the most powerful group, but Vanya is just generally the most powerful leader.
✦does not actively rival anyone, though Allison's group rivals them.
