The Providence (Mars' Greatest Gang Ever: 2)

[FreshRefreshments]

Type (e.g. Planet, Faction, System): Mars Gang. 

Describe this proposal in a single sentence (12 word maximum): Religious Gang That Was Removed From Wiki God Has Left Us

How will this be reflected on-station? The same way all the Mars gangs are reflected on station. Exploitables I guess. The War Heads and the Shuttleboys arent exactly hot topics for character backstories, but it can be used for flavor.

Does this faction/etc do anything not achieved by what already exists? Gang, except with weird religious undertones. 

Why should this be given to lore developers rather than remain player created lore? It was already made by a developer. It just isnt on the wiki anymore. This is a request for it to be readded.

Do you understand that if this is submitted, you are signing it away to the lore team, and that it's possible that it will change over time in ways that you may not forsee? I have to say yes or this will just be denied. I at least just want the very basic Providence back on the wiki for multi person use.

Long Description:

Original description: 

The Providence:

A small, closely-knit group hailing from Divitae, it was originally founded when several young boys working in the mines experienced the same kind of religious vision. Some kind of a very nonconventional cult was born, as the "dark deity" spoke to the members to... commit various street crimes. Some of these crimes are of religious nature, such as vandalising several Martian churches, while others are not. They traditionally wear all black clothing with some kind of a mask to conceal the face.

Slightly Revised(?) to fit the other gangs formatting if necessary: 

The Providence: 

A closely knit group originally borne in the mines of Divitae. A small group of young boys collectively shared what they called a religious awakening. An unorthodox cult was born, as the members claimed that some "dark deity" told them to commit crimes in their name; to sow chaos and stand on top. Some of these crimes are religious in nature, such as vandalizing churches and setting fire to places of worship, while others are more selfish in nature, such as muggings and harassment.  Members are also known to partake in ghost mushrooms, which are infamously hallucinogenic.

Members traditionally wear full body, all black clothing with some kind of mask, covering up as much as possible to look anonymous and faceless compared to one another.

The Providence has a noticeably diverse population of followers compared to other gangs originating on Mars, which is attributed to the ambiguity of their "dark deity" and how they apply it to other species beliefs. They've always been seen as an odd one out compared to the War Heads and the Shuttleboys. Although they've had relatively little territory compared to the other two largest gangs, their markings have also been noted in a couple locations in Tau Ceti, lending credence to a possibility they are migrating elsewhere, perhaps in search of new territory.

If it's not on the wiki it doesn't mean they don't exist so you really could just use this stuff anyway, but fine. It's one of the better ones, anyway. May God destroy bloat.
