Natural Born Crackheads

Natural Born Crackheads, also known as NBC, was a gang that was founded by Daquan Dumas and Guy Jones. NBC was led by Pilbis Toretti after Guy Jones and Daquan Dumas departed from the gang.

NBC currently has a total of 23 Members: 4 OG Members, 15 Full Members, 4 Associates.

Origin
The name originated from their often funny and non-serious demeanor. They use their funny wit and sarcasm to escape messy situations. They are also known for their up-tempo and hyper-trash talking. But don't let the name deceive you; this group is still as ruthless as they come and have built a reputation for being some of the top tier shooters in the city. They've also grown into one of the biggest, in terms of members, as well as one of the most powerful gangs in the city. They are associated with violence, theft, illegal criminal activity and gang-related shootings. They make most of their money by performing various bank heists throughout Los Santos, such as Fleeca, Paleto, Upper and Lower Vault, BobCat, & the Yacht. They also play a large part in the distribution of marijuana, methamphetamine, crack & illegal money bags.

Brad Bett
Brad Bett is the first full member of the Natural Born Crackheads aside from Guy Jones and Daquan Dumas. He had been hanging around the group for a few weeks and was fairly quickly associated with the gang. After taking part in multiple shootouts and always backing up the gang before anyone else, Guy and Peanut decided to have a conversation of making him a full member of NBC. They both agreed and decided they were going to play a kidnapping prank on him as a part of his initiation. They drove and picked him up with guns pointed and told him to get in the trunk of their car. They drove to a nearby building and forced him to go to the roof. They continuously told him how he "fucked up" and that he was going to pay for it. Once on the roof, they pushed him off and he fell about 10 stories and was downed immediately. Guy and Peanut climbed down from the building and grabbed Brad saying, "You are now a full member of NBC."

Pilbis Shonley
Pilbis Shonley was the first person asked to start a crew with Guy Jones and Peanut. Together they would form their own gang, Natural Born Crackheads. Pilbis accepted stating only if he could be an OG Member in which they all agreed.

Modi Janta
Modi Janta became an OG Member of the Natural Born Crackheads due to his very long friendship and history with Duquan Dumas. Together they were apart of the former gang Arab Mafia in which has since dissolved. Modi was also a very close friend to Guy Jones as well. Due to all of their long histories together, he was officially made an OG Member of the crew.

Alan Kyles
Alan has been a close associate to NBC since its early days as a gang. Guy Jones and Peanut decided it was time to make him a full member considering his full loyalty to the crew. They brought Alan to the construction site, where they forced him up to the top of the crane. Guy and Peanut then jokingly scolded Alan for not backing them up earlier that day in an angered conversation they had with a business partner, Chodie. Alan proceeded to tell them it wasn't his place to interrupt them. Peanut started throwing punches until he beat down Alan. Guy then took Alan and threw him off the crane and told him he's now a full member of the gang.

Salem Barghouthi
Salem was named OG of the crew due to his long history with most of the members. Salem is also Peanut's adopted father. With these close relations, it only made sense for Salem to officially be a part of the NBC. He is also leads the business management side for the gang in which he fronted a warehouse for most of their illegal drug distribution.

Dean Quincy
Dean Quincy was doing various bank jobs and robbing oxy runners with NBC. Dean quickly became associated and friends with all of the crew. Guy and Peanut propose that he join the gang, especially with NBC's reputation rapidly growing. After a week or so, Dean finally accepted and was Blooded In by getting his kneecaps shot by Guy Jones. Dean was the 3rd Full Member of NBC.

After a few months of being with the gang and all they had been through, Dean slowly stopped hanging around with the crew. He felt that NBC doesn't treat him as a family that do things together and gets credited for each and everyone involved, instead he felt that it was never a 'we did it' but an 'I did it' that he was never apart of. Dean then announced on the 18th of August 2021, that he was leaving NBC. Dean later joined The Mandem on the 7th of September 2021.

Patar Bellosh
Patar Bellosh is a very close friend of Dean Quincy's. Naturally, because Dean had been rolling with NBC a lot, Patar was also introduced to a lot of the crew. Everyone loved Patar and he quickly became associated. After about two weeks, Guy and Peanut decided to induct him as a Full Member. Much like the previous initiations with Brad and Alan, they pranked Patar as if they were mad at him. They took him to a remote location and shot him multiple times. Patar was the 4th Full Member of the NBC.

Patar slowly started drifting away from the gang, much like Dean. A lot of his close friends resided in The Mandem and Patar slowly grew interested in joining them. Patar then announced on the 18th of August 2021, that he was leaving NBC and joining Mandem on the 7th of September 2021.

{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed article-table" style="border:1px solid #374746; color:white; background:#0C0B1F;" ! style="background:#1b1844;" |SBS dispute with Chang Gang This young-formed group has already found its way into an external beef and clash with one of the strongest and powerful groups in the city known as Chang Gang. The dispute started when Chang Gang decided to attack and rob Peanut of his gun and drugs for unknown reasons other than to mess with him. Afterwards, Peanut contacted Guy Jones to setup a retaliation. The two groups met in a drive-by shootout on the north side of the city that ultimately led to a Chang Gang victory. NBC wanted to spice up the beef even more and go hunting for CG. Brad Bett jumped into the mix to help and join the fight as well.

NBC got their revenge when they drove up on Mr. Kebun, Ramee and Mickey, unaware, with their guard down at a gas station, NBC, shoot them down. Chang Gang did not take this lightly and therefore wanted to continue the altercation between them. After a failed plan by CG to set up NBC at a clothing store, NBC once again shot them down and came out victorious, although both groups were caught by law enforcement and sent to prison.

Second Day of Disputes
After the first day of shootouts between the groups, the next day Peanut met with Mr. Kebun and Ramee and came to the conclusion of squashing the beef. When everything seemed to settle down, Guy Jones and Brad Bett ran into Mr. Kebun, Ramee and Taco at the Grove Street Gas Station. After what seemed to be a short and friendly conversation at first, it spun into tension between the two sides once more. Mr.Kebun held up Guy Jones at gunpoint while Brad Bett, Ramee and Taco aimed guns at each other. Guy Jones was robbed and Brad Bett was shot down. NBC reached out to Peanut about what had just occurred, assuming the beef was supposed to be done with. Peanut insisted it was just a final clap back and that it was finally put to rest.

Later on that same day, Guy Jones and Peanut were both rolled up on and kidnapped by Ray Ray, Rhode Block & Ash Ketchup and taken to the Vinewood sign in the hills. Once there, they were shaken down and told that Mr. Kebun and Ramee hire them for money to find and kill them. After a short conversation of pleading, Guy Jones and Peanut were shot down. NBC declared the beef was alive again against Chang Gang for having a hit out on them. Guy Jones, Peanut, Brad Bett & Alan strapped up and decided it was time to hunt down CG once more.

After some time searching, they drove up to Wu Chang Records and saw Ramee's car in the parking lot. Guy Jones and Peanut sneak into the building where Peanut finds Ramee working in the studio unaware and, stabbes Ramee on sight. NBC then ran out of the building into the parking lot and stole Ramee's brand new Mercedes-Benz and decided they were going to destroy it as a message. They drove and parked it at the local Grove Street Gas Station and, after a few quick gun shots, blew up the car. After what seemed like a pretty successful clap back, Peanut received a call from his friend, Elena, asking if she could get a ride claiming she had just been kidnapped and robbed. NBC pulled up to a gas station where Elena was and were immediately ambushed by Mickey S, Ash Ketchup & Autumn Rhodes. It is unknown whether Mickey was told to setup the ambush or if he acted on his own in the name of Chang Gang.

End of Disputes
Later that same evening, Brad Bett met up with Jack Cortair to drive about and try to rob some oxy-runners. Without much success, Brad Bett convinces Jack that they should go to Ramee's Art Gallery, Vultur Lé Culturé, and see if they can rob an employee there to get back at Ramee. At first, Jack didn't realize the severity of the situation because he wasn't aware of the beef between Chang Gang and NBC. When they got there, they held up an employee named Tim who was the only one working at the time. Brad Bett robbed him and shot him in the leg and told him to let Ramee know NBC had come through. Afterwards, when they ran out of the gallery, Jack was upset with Brad because Jack was an employee at the gallery and didn't know Brad was going to shoot someone.

Later that day, the employee Tim, who got shot, notified Juan Carlos Hernandez aka Flippy, who was one of the upper managers at the gallery. Flippy asked who shot and robbed him and he told Flippy that it was some guy named Brad Bett and that he thought he recognized Jack Cortair's voice. Without hesitation, Flippy removed Jack from the books and had him fired immediately. When Jack found out, he was very angry that Flippy, Ramee or no one else hadn't given him a chance to explain what happened and give his side of the story. Jack reached out to Flippy over the phone and the two of them ended up arguing and trash-talking, which led Jack to want to go hunting for Flippy. With Brad Bett by his side, they drove around the art gallery where they found Flippy and Taco. The two sides ended up in a shootout in which Jack and Brad both got shot down.

A day later, once Ramee woke up and was notified by Flippy what had happened, Ramee and some of CG found Guy Jones and Peanut and shot them up when they found them solo in front of Alta St. Apartments. Guy and Peanut were unaware of what Brad Bett had done the night previous until Jack told them what Brad had done. This pissed off both Guy Jones and Peanut very much that Brad would go out repping NBC as an associate and without their permission or knowledge of it first. So Guy, Peanut, Jack and Adam devise a plan to meet up with Brad and interrogate him about what happened. They called Brad and picked him up at the apartments at gunpoint and told him to get into the trunk of their car. They talked to him on the way to a remote location about how he "fucked up" and shouldn't be repping the NBC and acting upon the name without them because it stirred up the beef with Chang Gang again. They arrived at an abandoned building north of the city and escorted him into an underground sewage bunker. Down there, Guy and Peanut questioned Brad again and told him that he needed to face the consequences of his actions. Guy Jones began to rough him up a bit before ultimately stabbing Brad in the stomach. They threatened Brad that they would kick him out of NBC if he ever did something like that again. They then rushed him to Pillbox Medical where he had surgery. He came out alive and rejoined the group and understood the circumstances and is still apart of the gang. The beef between Chang Gang and NBC settled down and both crews have actually become allies, assisting one another in shootouts, supplying weapons, as well as drugs.

{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed article-table" style="border:1px solid #374746; color:white; background:#0C0B1F;" ! style="background:#1b1844;" |GSF Tensions This altercation between both groups began about a week later after the Chang Gang dispute. GSF is also known as The Families or Grove Street Families. Guy Jones and Peanut were driving around at night in the south side of the city when they decided to pull over because Peanut wanted to smoke. They were immediately pulled up on by GSF member, Carter, when he questioned them what they were doing in their neighborhood. Peanut replied that he wasn't doing anything wrong and that he is originally from the south side anyway. Tensions arose when Carter pressed them to leave the area and Peanut pulled a gun. Peanut was shot down and both Carter and Guy Jones gunned down one another simultaneously.

The next day, Guy and Peanut went to visit the boss on the south side to sign up for house robberies. They were soon rolled up on by GSF leader Dexx Martin. Also with him was Summer Mersion, another OG member of the crew. Dexx asked Peanut about what he had heard about the altercation the night before and wanted to know if he had problems. Peanut and Guy insisted that it was a misunderstanding and Peanut tried to explain the situation when Summer cut him off and imposed her dominance that they needed to watch who they were talking to when coming down to their hood. They both drove off and both Guy and Peanut didn't appreciate the disrespect and treatment they had just received. They decided they were going to come back and shoot down Summer.

About a half hour later, Guy and Peanut were driving around GSF territory looking for Summer. Once they found her, a shootout between the two cars occurred. With Summer being alone at the time, she was able to escape. She called up Dexx about what had just happened and both sides had begun their hunt for one another. Another shootout occurred in a nearby parking garage. One GSF member that was riding around with Dexx was shot down but there were no other casualties. Guy Jones called up Brad Bett for backup and Brad soon thereafter came and picked up Guy and Peanut to re-up on ammo and supplies.

The groups met once again on the south side, both sides driving two cars each. A shoot out spilled out onto the streets immediately after Summer was shot down in her own car. Both sides ensued in a 5 minute shoot out with GSF members DK and Marlo both being shot down. Dexx was the last standing member who was on a nearby roof but was then ambushed by Peanut. NBC claimed victory over GSF and antagonized them that if they wanted the "smoke" they could come and get it. GSF refused to let this be the last altercation between them and therefore the beef officially began. GSF started their hunt for NBC but were without luck in finding them.

Rising tensions with GSF
A day later, Guy, Peanut, Brad and Jack were rolling around together looking to rob some oxy-runners for cash and guns. Coincidentally, they ran into GSF in an alleyway on the north side of the city selling oxy. They rolled up on them and told them to put their hands up. Dexx recognized Peanut's voice and immediately began shooting. Dexx, Summer, and an associate of GSF were shot down, as well as Guy and Brad. Peanut and Jack loaded them up into their car and rushed Guy and Brad to the hospital. GSF were even more heated, being shot down two times in less than 24 hours, and so the hunt for NBC ensued once more. Peanut decided it was time to call Dexx and see if he wanted to come to terms to end the beef due to GSF being shot down so many times by them. Dexx unwillingly complied with anything Peanut proposed and so NBC decided they were going to keep the beef going if that's what they wanted. NBC rolled up just underneath the Olympic Freeway that divides both the south and north sides and caught sight of one GSF member running oxy. NBC told him to put his hands up but the GSF member refused and was immediately shot down.

Soon thereafter, NBC spotted GSF camped out in a nearby parking lot right next to the Alta St Apartments. Another shoot out occurred which spilled into the streets right next to the apartments where tons of people were hanging out. Dexx was shot but managed to escape along with GSF member Smino to a nearby building. The LSPD showed up on the scene shortly after and NBC had to run on foot to escape them. Guy Jones was caught and arrested for evading law enforcement, resisting arrest, and testing positive for GSR in the shooting. He was sentenced to 40 months in prison. Peanut, Brad and Jack picked him up from Bolingbrook Penitentiary once he was done serving his time. At this point, Guy decided it was time to call up Dexx yet again to see if they could come to a resolution. Once on the phone, Guy and Dexx got into a huge argument about either side backing down if the other was going to continue the ongoing beef. Dexx hung up the phone and it was assumed that the beef was not yet over.

About a day later or so, things between the two groups seemed pretty quiet with no other shoot-outs occurring. Guy, for the final time, decided it was time to call Dexx and see if they could talk face to face, to which Dexx agreed. Guy, Peanut, Brad and Jack drove to the south side of GSF's territory and met with Dexx and "L" and both sides had a calm conversation about everything that had unfolded over the last few days. The two sides came to a resolution that neither side would cause anymore issues and that NBC would stay out of GSF territory moving forward. This officially ended the beef and both sides agreed on peace moving forward, although, many more conflicts and shootouts have happened and, as of right now, both sides don't often care for one another.

Activities
{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed article-table" style="border:1px solid #374746; color:white; background:#0C0B1F;" ! style="background:#1b1844;" |Drug operations

Weed operations
NBC have quickly made a name for themselves in the city of Los Santos, in which they've earned a ton of street credit. When NBC first started, they wanted to take part in a form of business to kick start their finances as a gang as well as partnering in business proposals. Their first proposal was to Wayne Biggz and Chad Brodie.

Wayne and Chad run the biggest operation for marijuana growth and distribution in Los Santos. Wayne's farm consists of over 30 marijuana plants growing simultaneously. Guy Jones and Peanut proposed to help in the operation by requesting that they would help them store the large amounts of marijuana in a warehouse. With all of NBC being high-rated criminals, they asked Salem Barghouthi if he would purchase and front the warehouse in his name due to having a very clean record during that time. Salem requested a portion of the business sales and NBC accepted. After the purchase of the warehouse, Chodie gave the NBC a few male marijuana seeds to start their own operation. After a few weeks, Chodie was starting new business ventures and parted ways with the warehouse. NBC can still run their own marijuana operations, but as of right now, has steered away from it due to its slow process.

Meth operations
After receiving a tip off from Lang Buddha about a red barn located in Harmony which turned out to be a meth lab, the Natural Born Crackheads became one of the few crew's in the city that are now cooking and producing meth. NBC learned how to cook and on the 1st of June 2021, and they successfully cooked their first batch. Since then, they have been cooking many times, with Dean Quincy quickly becoming the main chef and orchestrating the cooks. NBC's plan was to become one of the biggest distributors of meth in Los Santos and completely take over it. At the time, they were sitting on 200k-600k worth of meth. After losing the warehouse, Dean Quincy steered clear of the meth game and subsequently left NBC. As of September, NBC had resumed their cooking and selling of meth with Pilbis Shonley as the main chef as well as Peanut operating on meth tables.

Vault Heist
The Natural Born Crackheads were sitting on three red dongles from their successful Paleto Heists. They were devising a plan for awhile on how they were going to plan, hack and successfully get away from their very first vault heist. With Chang Gang and the Cleanbois being the only two groups to successfully rob the vault and get away, the NBC wanted to be the next crew to do it. Guy Jones figured since he had connected with Yuno Sykk and Lang Buddha that they would be good partners for acquiring thermite and successfully hacking the bank, with Yuno being the best hacker in the city. After a few conversations, the plan was set in motion with Guy Jones, Peanut, Buddha and Yuno being the four-man crew. On the day of the heist, Peanut wasn't able to wake up, so Guy replaced him with Dean Quincy. Guy proposed the get away plan and Lang offered that they use his personal boat in the get away as well. The end game was to have the person with all of the bank loot be a priority for escaping, no matter what. During the vault, Yuno and Lang successfully hacked all of the doors and they were able to obtain the money. It is said that currently, it was the biggest payout for a vault heist, yet being at 600k meant 150k per person. During the escape, everything fell perfectly into place, and everyone got away with Lang and Yuno flying in their plane and Guy and Dean basically getting away in the boat. NBC's next vault strictly had just NBC members on the job. They were able to successfully hack their 2nd ever vault job with the help of Bohdi Mack from the Vagos. They escaped with all the money as well.

The NBC regularly hack the Vault as a full man crew now having some of their own members, such as Alan Kyles, being professional bank hackers.

NBC hit their first lower vault on 9th of December 2021, and Alan successfully hacked it and got the loot but they were breached by Cleanbois along with Marty. Everyone was caught and sent to jail and they lost all the loot. They wanted to negotiate with Cleanbois but after it fell apart, they declared war. During a very short war, NBC unsurprisingly took care of business. Lang Buddha declared to stop the fighting and shooting and settled on an agreement that Guy Jones proposed in which they paid NBC 500k.
