## **History**

### **Origin**

During the first world war, several civilians and criminals, Russian or Polish fled refuged into Germany. Among them were Luis Karpakov and his three brothers. After they lost their home during the battle of Masurian Lakes in 1914. As revenge against the Germans, Luis and his brothers practice organized crime. Because of their xenophobic resentment against the Germans because of their responsibility for ending their family, they continue honing these actions until they gain Notoriety from the locals. Several criminals also earned their respect for defiance against the law, and luckily they were never caught as the Government was too busy with the war.

In 1915, they now have grown influence within Munich and several parts of Bavaria. They started recruiting more and more people into their organization, eventually becoming a Mafia. From here, operations would be more stealthy and hidden from the Government. They would continue operating normally until the end of the war.

### **Otto Presidency**

By 1920, Otto Hollenfeuer's campaigns against crime effectively work well against the Mafia, hurting their progress. The resentful Karpakovs eventually find ways to get revenge, overthrowing a local law enforcement, starting a riot and much more. However, the Karpakovs were able to research illegal drugs, stimulants and were able to make a breakthrough discovery within the Kinetic arts which led to their production of stimulants that enhanced performance upon usage. These would also be reasons for Otto's declaration of Martial Law. An anti-peace faction planning to also overthrow the government also meets with the organization, both eventually unite and Omphious Erronzein gets involved. With this, 2 families are now working together in order to overthrow the government. Omphious then enters political life to further the influence of some of KCF's ideologies to make them grow popularity. Political corruption and acts of treason are also committed by Omphious in order to cover up the existence of KCF's existence. However, Otto quickly catches on and launches an internal investigation which verifies the existence of KCF, however it's not believed by the public as Otto's reputation is going downhill. Eventually, Otto declares Martial Law which pauses the progression of the Mafia, giving the operations to Socialist People's Army.

### **Martial Law**

During the period of Martial Law, several members of the KCF fall victim to the torture and extrajudicial killings. This effectively left scars upon the organization as they could do nothing to react. As a result, the Karpakov's resentment toward German people continue.

### **Prequel**

After the oust and the succession of Alice Erronzein, the KCF continued to strive, however is less popular. Because of it's significant loss of influence during Martial Law, they are now only operational within Munich. However they were still able to traffic illegal narcotics across other cities. Now at this time, Alice betrays the organization after launching internal investigations against it and revealing it's existence in order to gain reputation as a good chancellor. Luis then again distrusts German people which then led to his distrust and mutiny against Omphious. However, he was forced to reconsider as Francis Webster and Svetovoy Karpakov unite and enter German politics where they would gain influence.

### **Fall of the Karpakov Crime Families**

As Ezekiel Hollenfeuer verifies it's existence and seeks to prevent crime in order to fulfill his egotistical agenda, he launches a straightforward operation alongside Felix Heisenberg codenamed Operation Salamanca to proceed and destroy the organization. During a 5-hour standoff, Luis reveals his Kinetic Art and uses the produced stimulants, all of it. However because of his own gullibility, Luis overuses the drugs and leads to overdose which leads to his death. Another standoff started between Dmitri Karpakov and Ezekiel, which was a much more chaotic fight wherein he fully manifested and presented his Kinetic arts. However, despite their efforts all of them managed to die from their own creation, erasing it whole. Ezekiel and "Wassersaule" seize and hide the products of the KCF, eventually preventing further production of their stimulants and drugs. With the death of all the remaining Karpakovs, it ended their legacy, thus passing it on to the Socialist People's Army.
