The Syndicate is a Major crime organization, made by a combination of Yakuza, mafia, Cartel, drug Lords, crime bosses, and small criminal. It is located in a city cut off from the rest of the world. Futuristic setting. Pretty much all crime is connected to the syndicate. It's #1 on the police's take down listen yet they never succeed. You are the child of the ex leader, their father. Your mother had you experience on as a child (the results of the experiment are up to you) So your father killed your mother and locked you up. When you turned 16, you where finally let out. That's also when your father was assassinated. You where sent away into hiding, while the syndicate fell into the hands of your fathers traitorous second in command. Who thinks your dead. If he where to find out you where alive he would definitely try to kill you
