Alderney's most ruthless biker gang. As a unit, they're single-handedly responsible for over 700 IC deaths since 2008 (according to the FIB). Based of a Grand Theft Auto IV single-player gang by the same name, they've spent the last nine years in a bloody war with their sworn enemies, The Angels of Death MC. The two have been involved in a bitter and ruthless gang war over territory in Liberty, Alderney and San Andreas. Both gangs have absolute disregard for human life. A Lost MC gang member, known as Scar, who chose to remain anonymous told our team this in an interview; "It's not that we don't 'value' human life, it's just that these deadbeats aren't humans. They're pretty fucking angels, too pussy go all out! D'you know why that is? - Scar, The Lost MC No, why is that? - WEAZEL NEWS REPORTER "'Cause Angles work for God, and God forgives. The Lost don't." - Scar, The Lost MC The Events of 2010January Their motto, "God Forgives, The Lost Don't". It was taken from a real-life outlaw biker gang, Outlaws MC. It was taken literally one night in 2010. The Angels of Death shot and killed a member of The Lost MC, known simply as "JayKay" in FireFly Gardens, Liberty, as well as non-fatally shooting another member of The Lost MC as well as members of the FireFlyProjectGang. The Lost MC waited two weeks to retaliate.. and once they did.. they retaliated hard. Six members of The Lost MC drove up to an Angels of Death "hangout" (a location that a club or gang frequents often, sometimes referred to as a "gangout") and, armed with automatic handguns and shotguns, shot and killed six Angels and two LCPD officers in a, reportedly, 12 minute long shootout, taking zero casualties, before casually riding off back to their hangout. Febuary The Angels of Death attempted a retaliation two days later when six AOD (Angles of Death) members chased down and killed two Lost MC members. Unfortunately for the Angels of Death, they committed the act not only in the presence of the LCPD, which saw five of their members "go down" (get arrested and sentenced), but they also committed the act in the territory of the Caruso mob, which saw a lot of trouble for the Angels of Death MC. The Founding of The ClubIC, The Lost MC was founded in late 2008, not that long after the establishment of the community. The club was founded by James "The Ant" Anthony, Otto "The Otter" Houston, "The Fucker", Clyde "The Trucker" Zed and "Scar". The club was intended to be based of the in-game version of the club, but quickly took on a life of its own, and soon became something far more sinister. Where Are The Founding Members Now? We have been repeatedly told that The Ant was arrested, in real-life, in 2012 for some sort of ch*ld pornography charges, though this is unconfirmed officially and may just be rumors. What we do know, however, is that, what ever happened to him, he is no longer around. The Otter is still a club member and runs their Alderney "charter" (a smaller squad of members). The pleasantly named, The Fucker, was shot dead (in-game) in 2010 during a high-speed chase involving six members of the Angels of Death MC. The Trucker was shot dead (in-game) in late 2008, though we don't know anything more than that. Scar is still in The Lost MC, being the secretary of the Sandy Shores chapter. What Are The Ranks of The Lost MC? President --> The role of the President is to lead the chapter. He is the boss of bosses and has the final say in any and every decision. Vice President --> The role of the Vice President is to lead the club when the president isn't there. Secretary and Treasurer --> The role of the Secretary and Treasurer is to manage the club's money and documentation both in-game and out of game. The secretary and treasurer ask permission from dominants (clubs that control a certain section of the map) before riding inside their territory. They didn't use to ask permission, but after feuds with the Sons of Anarchy MC and the Modern Spartans MC, they now ask permission from dominants before riding inside their territory (or "turf"). Sergeant --> The role of the sergeant is to be the president's personal bodyguard. Gunner --> The role of the gunner is to ride at the back of the "pack" (group of riders) and shoot at anybody that attacks them. Prospect --> A prospect is somebody that wants to join the club but hasn't yet been accepted as a full member. They are, essentially, slaves to The Lost MC, doing all of the work that the full members (or "patches") don't want to do. The Events of 2013 and 2014If we fast-forward past a load of drama, we end up in mid 2013. Here, the club had a huge decision to make. They were a dominant club, and thus had a lot of members, but they had to chose whether or not to stay in familiar territory or to move to San Andreas. The club chose to split into two separate chapters. One stayed in Liberty and Alderney and one chose to move to San Andreas. This, unfortunately, didn't have the desired effect. All it did was weaken both chapters until neither was a dominant anymore. Street gangs took over all of San Andreas at the start while a lot of clubs chose to stay in Liberty and Alderney. TodayToday, The Lost MC are considered the dominant of Sandy Shores, but are nowhere near as powerful as they once were and the club hardly operates the same way at all and have even opened an OC chapter. But How Dangerous Is The Lost MC Now? Whilst the Lost MC are still hell-raisers, they are not as aggressive or prominent as they once were. Thankfully, they are not really much of a threat, anymore. In late 2016, Grapeseed dominant, the Modern Spartans MC, promised to "keep The Lost out of trouble" and it seem as though they have. Whilst the two clubs are not on the best of terms and, we're told, stay away from each other's territories, it does appear that the Modern Spartans MC has managed to keep The Lost MC a dominant whilst simultaneously decreasing their power, influence and headlines, somehow. They are not people that you need to worry about, just be cautious around Sandy Shores and Stab City.

We're not sure whether we should go with a style more like this for the rest of the series or more like the last episode? We're thinking more like the last one.
