## **Description**

Tommy Stanley is a proud soldier for FSM (Free Souls Mafia) and a well known racer under the Alias "Babyface".

## Time in Los Santos

When Tommy landed in Los Santos he felt pretty lost and struggled to find a purpose until he reunited with his old boys Theo, Mason, Dan and Vik. The 5 of them began in the criminal world with the basics of Robbing Stores, Chopping Cars and Robbing Houses, they did this for about a week before Tommy met Zara and Nyri. Tommy became close with the two of them and they ended up joining the friend group. As the months went on, the group slowly started to spread out with the main people being Tommy and Nyri who both moved on whilst staying close, the other five took a break from the city for quite a while.

Tommy was told about a racing scene that was being started by some of his friends in The Gamblers called "The Scene" and he decided to check it out. He didn't have a car at the time so he just borrowed car's from his friends whilst trying to make money on the side for his own car. When it came to thinking of an alias for racing he originally thought of "Jackdaw". He thought of this name because of one of his favourite video games Assassin's Creed Black Flag where you play the pirate/assassin Edward Kenway who captained the ship known as the Jackdaw. Tommy thought that because he had an eyepatch, he could see the correlation to one of his favourite games that it made sense so his original racing alias became "Jackdaw". Tommy would eventually buy his 8F Drafter and give it the license plate "JACKDAW", he started to make a name for himself in The Scene as one of the people who would rarely place in the top half and would commonly DNF (Did Not Finish). Despite this, Tommy made quite a lot of friends such as Shenron, Sleepy, Neo, Nvsty and Ronin just to name a few. Tommy would eventually change his alias from "Jackdaw" to "Babyface" due to someone calling him a babyface as a joke on the radio and him actually liking the name. Babyface would use the money he got from his Drafter (around $70,000) and decided to buy a Sultan RS Classic suggested by Sleepy. He would not click well with this car though and would sell within a week of purchasing it after finding out about a Seven 70 that was available from Tom's Used Cars, he decided to trade his Sultan RS Classic to TUC for the Seven 70.

Tommy would feel much more comfortable with the Seven 70 and his performances began to show this, consistently placing within the top 10 or top 5 for a good while and this is when the Los Santos Racing League (LSRL) was announced and there was a meeting to explain how it was going to work and address any questions or concerns, this meeting was very successful and Tommy was immediately into it. However, he would need to qualify and he didn't believe that he could do well enough in the Seven 70 so it was time to move on to a new car and he found an absolutely gem... The Cheetah Classic. Tommy found this car whilst test driving a bunch of potential options at Luxury Autos and decided to buy it after selling his Seven 70 to Tom's and using some of the money he has made from crime, this is still Tommy's current car to this day and he loves it.

Whilst Tommy was advancing his career in the racing scene he was also advancing in the crime world. Whilst he was chopping one day he ran into a guy by the name of Cocaine Cody and they both exchanged details due to mutual interests. Tommy was still looking for a crew of some sorts and Cody was trying to find his way into the racing scene so they could both help each other out. Tommy then took a couple days to get his hands on a racing sim to give to Cody and they were also working their way up the crime ladder together as a crew. Throughout the weeks Tommy and The Cocaine Cody Crew would wreak havoc around the city robbing jewellery stores, banks, stores and basically anything else you can think of. Whilst they were preparing for a drug run Tommy ran into a guy named Ace Uchiha who was a member of Okami Kai and they exchanged numbers just to have that extra connection, Tommy and the Crew ended up grabbing the drug run and getting into a chance that lasted way over an hour and almost lost them multiple times but sadly got caught after being spiked coming through Legion Square. This put Tommy $25,000 in debt due to the fines he received and so he began slowing down with crime in order to not put himself any further in debt. At some point during his time laying low he made a phone call to Ace, the man he met whilst preparing for that drug run, the reason for this phone call is unknown. However, we do know that Ace suggested Tommy should come and hang around at the Okami Kai block and potentially become a hangaround with the gang and Tommy took Ace up on this offer despite already having the Cocaine Cody Crew with him the majority of his days.

After hanging around on the block for a few days, Tommy was made an Apprentice and given a checklist of tasks to do that ranged from robbing a bank to saving a member from law enforcement or even walking around Vespucci Police Department with a Weed Plant in your hands, Tommy would breeze through these tasks and within 2 weeks would become an official member, get handed his Okami mask and get blooded into the gang, ever since that day Tommy has been doing crime mainly with Okami Kai and rarely does crime with the Cocaine Cody crew but still keeps contact with them as he thinks of them as family.

Tommy is currently dedicating the majority of his time to Okami Kai and Babyface is taking a break from the Racing Scene.

## **The end with Okami Kai**

After dedicating a lot of his time to Okami Kai and having it go through multiple phases and leadership changes, Tommy realised he wasn't happy anymore with the way that the gang was being ran and was thinking about going his separate ways, he had been apart of the gang for 6 months by March 2023 and still had love for everyone but couldn't help remembering how it used to be compared to how it was.

One day when Tommy was in an active pursuit from a Bank Robbery, he found himself in a foot pursuit relatively close to his gang block in Vespucci, he decided to run through the block whilst being chased by police and ended up being arrested pretty quickly with no help from his fellow gang members. Not only was this stunt extremely fucking stupid, it also landed Tommy in some trouble with his OG and other higher ups which he found out about after he got out of Bolingbroke Penitentiary. When Tommy arrived back at the block, he was greeted by his OG YB and asked to come over to the old apartment complex that surrounded their block.

He was walked into the complex by YB and there were 9 others standing there already such as Riley, Kash, J1 and other members that Tommy grew to know very well. YB and the others told Tommy that this was an Okami Council meeting which immediately didn't sound too great but after a relatively short but non hostile conversation, Tommy and the Council mutually agreed that his time in the gang was up and he was blooded out there and then. After being blooded out, he collected all his belongings such as cars, guns, and anything else and said his goodbyes to all his former gang members.

Tommy's final day as an Okami Kai member was March 11th 2023.

## **A Fresh Start**

After leaving Okami Kai, Tommy was rolling solo again for the first time in half a year and felt pretty lost. He spent a lot of his time just hanging out with his Family and Friends without a direction or a clue of what was next. Tommy did however celebrate his 23rd Birthday on April 22nd 2023 and had a great day surrounded by all his family.

Following his birthday though, he went back to having no direction, he was driving down to CNC Main one day when he saw Kakashi Johnson, an old friend who he had known since his first week in the city. After talking and catching up, Tommy mentioned how he had recently separated from Okami Kai and didn't really know what was next. Kakashi took off his FSM skull mask that he was wearing and handed it to Tommy, he told him to try it on and see how it feels so he did, Tommy and Kakashi both agreed that the flag was dope and looked good on him so Kakashi proposed that Tommy started to hang around FSM. He said that he'd take the day to think about it and let Kakashi know by the end of the day. After thinking about his options throughout the day, Tommy didn't really have any other option and he always thought FSM was a cool group ever since his first days in the city so at that pointer it was a no brainer. Tommy called Kakashi that night and told him that he'd be down to become a hangaround and Kakashi told him to come to FSM Plaza. After arriving at the Plaza, Kakashi introducted him to Jiggz and Collin Mayberry who wanted to learn more about Tommy. After explaining who he is and what's he done in the city to get to this point, Tommy was made an official hangaround for FSM on the 28th April 2023.

After hanging around for just over a month, Tommy knew everyone and was really starting to feel at home again. On the 8th of June, Tommy was sitting on the set when he was told by Vlad and Rue to come into the garden, he of course did so, As he walked in with Vlad and Rue, Jiggz and Collin were already standing there, this was starting to feel like some Deja Vu just with far less people. However, the topic of this meeting was huge for Tommy as he was made an official FSM Associate gaining access to the FSM radio and his very own keycard to the gates of the FSM Plaza aswell as the FSM Penthouse.

## Loyalty and Trust

Since becoming an FSM Associate, Tommy was finally feeling like he had direction again, like he had a purpose in the city and a family to be around, Tommy was doing associate tasks for the family such as walking down Mount Chilliad on shrooms or stealing a cop car and sending that bitch into the ocean. Tommy was even doing jobs such as hitting Paleto Bank and even the Pacific Standard Bank, jobs of a stature that he hadn't gotten close to doing before. On the 28th of July 2023, Jiggz and Tommy were mugging locals in the street looking for valuables when 3 masked individuals pulled up on Tommy and told him to "get the fuck in the car", Tommy obliged and got into their vehicle, they were taking him away from the city and told him that they had some questions for him and his FSM family, apparently these individuals hated FSM and they were planning to use Tommy for information. After a long drive up Great Ocean Highway, the individuals parked under the Zancudo Tunnel Bridge and forced Tommy out of the car.

One of the kidnappers told Tommy to stand and face the wall with his hands behind his back, Tommy had his shirt, hat and mask removed and was placed in handcuffs. Tommy was then told to turn around and then began the questioning. "Tell us all of FSM's secrets" "where's your warehouse?", every single question was responded to with the same answer. "Go fuck yourself." "II ain't telling you shit".

One kidnapper was getting increasingly agitated with Tommy as they picked up a medium sized rock and threw it at Tommy's head as well as cutting off his manbun, the individuals asked Tommy why he cared so much about keeping it a secret, why he was so loyal to the family, the answer was simple: they gave him a fresh start. After refusing even more answers, one of them took out a crowbar and began to dig into Tommy's spine going deeper the more Tommy refused. Eventually, they grew tired of Tommy's ignorance and all three brandished pistols, aiming them at Tommy's head, they gave him one last chance to give up information saying "is it really worth dying for FSM?". Tommy nodded his head and accepted his fate, but in a moment of anticipation, one of the individuals exclaimed that their gun was jammed, all three individuals then removed their masks and they turned out to be Vlad, Rue and Collin, it was all becoming apparent what was actually going on in Tommy's mind, it was then made clear to him when Rue said "Congratulations on passing your stress test Tommy."

Tommy then walked back to the car with Vlad, Rue and Collin and they travelled to a clothing store where they all got changed and made the trip back to the FSM Plaza. When they arrived at the plaza, Tommy realised that Jiggz was involved from the beginning and that's why he didn't help Tommy, Jiggz congratulated Tommy himself, placed a paper bag over his head and guided him back to the car, the 5 of them drove to the clothing store closest to the Plaza and began handing Tommy some clothes to try on, indicating where on the body they went. By the end of the clothing change, Tommy had the paper bag taken off and was wearing a blue paisley suit, his very own FSM blue paisley suit. He was then handed a FSM Skull Mask to put on, the very same mask that Kakashi told him to try on exactly 3 months prior. Unfortunately, Kakashi had left FSM about a month before this so couldn't be present for the ceremony but he would find out soon enough anyway, it was official, FSM had it's newest soldier in Tommy Stanley.

## **Where is Babyface?**

During the midst of all of Tommy's life changes that came with joining FSM, Babyface had to take a major backseat and is rarely ever seen in the racing seen still even after all these months. Babyface likes to make small cameos at races here in there but unfortunately he is one of a few remaining people left from his generation of racers. Some people have tried to convince Tommy to bring back Babyface permanently but he is still contemplating whether he even wants to race anymore. It will always be a huge part of him and he will cherish the moments forever but a change in lifestyle brings a change in one's self and who knows if Babyface will ever make a permanent return.

As of the 6th November 2023, Tommy is living his life with FSM by his side and has all but left the racing scene with rare appearances and may not return permanently but never say never.
