History Characters / SaintsRowSaintsRow2Gangs

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: They have basically the same gang colors as Los Carnales, who also specialized in arms dealing, and Maero was apparently a close friend of Victor Rodriguez; both are {{The Brute}}s of their respective games. Brotherhood associate Donnie is a former member of the Westside Rollerz, who like the Brotherhood, loved automobiles.

* DropTheHammer: Many of their members carry around sledgehammers as a melee weapon.

* WeaponSpecialization: The Brotherhood wield [[DropTheHammer sledgehammers]], GDHC .50 pistols, 12 Gauges, [=SK9=] Threats, K6 Krukovs, pipe bombs, Molotov cocktails, and [=RPGs=].

* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Johnny Gat beats him to a pulp and buries him alive, but after he indirectly had Aisha beheaded, you'd be hard-pressed to actually sympathize with him.]]

* BullyingADragon: Offering 20% to a reformed gang and acting condescending about it would make sense if it was any other gang leader besides the Boss. Maero knows who the Boss and Gat are, as they were Julius' top killers who took down the former gangs who held Stilwater with an iron fist, he should know better than to make an enemy out of the Saints. This becomes worse if the Sons of Samedi or the Ronin have been wiped out before meeting Maero, since the Boss will have publicly proven that they're capable of taking on another gang and winning.

* BlackSheep: Of Shaundi's exes, see AmicableExes above for more detail.

* MightyGlacier: Their vehicle choices. In contrast to the Ronin, they're not likely to win racing competitions anytime soon, and they are't as flashy as the Sons of Samedi's classic lowriders, but they're massive and have plenty of stopping power behind them.

* BilingualBonus: Most of his first appearances in the game contain him speaking in Japanese. He has to be reminded to speak English by Shogo, who gets annoyed by this happening.

-->'''''SCREAM! SCREAM WHILE YOU STILL CAN!'''''

* BullyingADragon: [[spoiler:Trying to kill The Boss and Johnny during Aisha's funeral was really not a good idea. Not only does it enrage both of them, it results in him being overpowered and then BuriedAlive. Had he just obeyed Gat's warning to enact his revenge another time, he would have likely survived a little longer.]]

* WhiteGangBangers: Only about half the gang is Caribbean. The other half is white stoner college students. Even a majority of the gang's black members are [[ButNotTooBlack actually quite light-skinned]].

* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: He is on the receiving end of a brutal one from a '''''[[TranquilFury very]]''''' furious Johnny Gat, and is then BuriedAlive afterwards.

* DarkChick: She is mostly the money of the group and isn't a threat by herself.

* AintTooProudToBeg: After Gat locks him in the casket, Shogo begs him to just kill him instead of burying him alive. Gat doesn't listen.

* AintTooProudToBeg: He begs Johnny and The Boss to kill him painlessly instead of burying him alive.

* JerkassHasAPoint: His deal is obviously designed to benefit the Brotherhood first and foremost - but at the start of the game, the Saints are just an escaped burn victim and a couple of their friends, hiding out in an abandoned building with pretty much nothing but the reputation of the original Saints to back them up. At this point, his assessments are entirely correct; the Boss just came out of a years-long coma and hasn't proven they still have what it takes, he doesn't need protection to deal with them, and the Saints are a has-been gang consisting of about three people skating on hopeful dreams, and thinks the Boss should be grateful he's willing to cut them in on anything at all. Of course, if you've done even a few missions of the other storylines, he is '''''far''''' off the bat. Even more so if you've already taken out one or both of the other two gangs, wherein he comes off as a blowhard that [[CriticalResearchFailure didn't watch Channel 6 News often enough]] when he decided to step to the Saints.

* MacheteMayhem: His WeaponOfChoice, shared with the rest of the Samedi. [[spoiler:He also gets his head chopped off with his own.]]

* AnimalMotifs: The symbol for their gang is a tribal wolf that reflects the gang quite well, [[SavageWolves both in terms of their ruthless tactics]] and their [[NobleWolf sense of unity compared]] to the other two gangs.

* DarkSkinnedRedhead: He's AmbiguouslyBrown and has red hair.

* WeaponOfChoice: The Brotherhood wield [[DropTheHammer sledgehammers]], GDHC .50 pistols, 12 Gauges, [=SK9=] Threats, K6 Krukovs, pipe bombs, Molotov cocktails, and [=RPGs=].

* WeaponOfChoice: Members of the Ronin carry {{katana|s are just better}} with them (Jyunichi even has [[SwordsAkimbo two]]), as well as VICE 9 pistols, GAL 43 submachine guns, and K6 Krukov rifles.

* WeaponOfChoice: The Sons of Samedi wield {{machete|mayhem}}s and a very wide variety of firearms: their pistols are [=NR4=]s and VICE 9s; their [=SMGs=] are [=TK3=] Urbans and SKR-9 Threats; their shotguns are 12 Gauges, Tombstones, and [=AS14=] Hammers; their rifles are K6 Krukovs and AR-50 [=XMACs=]; and for good measure, they have explosives like [=RPGs=], hand grenades, pipe bombs, and {{Molotov cocktail}}s.

** While playing "Face Down" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus on Gen X, he will sometimes comment that he hopes that the abusive BastardBoyfriend in the song "gets what's coming to him". He really isn't one to talk, since he later kidnaps ''his'' ex-girlfriend and uses her as a hostage to save his own sorry ass.

* NiceHat: Mr. Sunshine's rasta hat is probably the only nice thing about him.

* NiceHat: Never seen without his rainbow Rasta hat.

* BerserkButton: While usually scared of his employers, when Mr. Sunshine tells him to know his place in the gang, he actually gives him a DeathGlare.
-->'''Veteran Child:''' [[TranquilFury My place]]?

* SmallNameBigEgo: He firmly believes that the Brotherhood is the strongest gang in Stilwater. He goes on believing it even after the Saints start tearing him a new one. Taken UpToEleven if you've already defeated the Ronin and Samedi before him, where he only controls the poor southern districts of Stilwater while the Saints now control the other richer districts of the city.

* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: He is on the receiving end of a brutal one from a '''''[[TranquilFury very]]''''' furious Johnny Gat, and is then BuriedAlive afterwards. [[WhatAnIdiot This is what happens when you attack a funeral held for]][[spoiler: Aisha, Gat's girlfriend]], ''[[TooDumbToLive especially when your gang is responsible for said death]]''.
