Sparky Kane is a character role-played by Louuis.

General Information

Sparky Kane, most commonly known as "SK", is a charismatic gangster that relocated to Los Santos from Romford, Essex. Portraying the typical Essex boy, Sparky is partial to a fake tan and dons a distinctive look with his buzzcut, piercing blue eyes, and extensive tattoos. When immigrating to Los Santos, Sparky's Visa and Identification paperwork were filled in wrong, legally making him 45 years old. He is most likely younger in age, but with his parents losing his birth certificate, and both losing their lives when he was a youth, Sparky's currently unsure of his age. Sparky has always had an addictive personality and as a result, is prone to using narcotics (lean, pills) and smoking cigarettes. He currently leads the predominantly British street gang, The Manor, along his second-in-command STE O'Connor . Sparky also holds the title of establishing the first official record label in Los Santos, Revival Records, along with co-owner Johnny Paps. Prior to the establishment of Revival Records,Sparky also released his first official song (following the OTT diss tracks, Bad Company & King's Dead) Revival, a name fitting for his return to the music scene.

Sparky is a very talented musician and rap artist, his background and thirst for adrenaline ensures he cannot resist a life of criminal activity. Sparky's been known to say that he has 'Gangsteritus', and because of all his traumatic life experiences, it is only when conducting illicit activities that he truly feels alive. Throughout his life, Sparky has always been heavily involved in drug distribution, but does also partake in other types of crime such as armed robbery, assault, grand theft auto, and extortion. When he has issues with people, he is known to be upfront and impulsive, often kidnapping those that crossed him in a trademark black van.

Background Information

A Change Of Scenery.
3rd Century


Arriving from the UK, Sparky came to the city looking to showcase his unique Grime and UK style of music. Fresh off the plane, he decided to audition at Wu Chang Records in front of Valentine Dalla and was signed not long after. However, after being signed to Wu Chang, he spoke with Dwayne Flores of MDM Records about potentially switching labels, in which Dwayne asked to see more activity from Sparky.

As a result of their conversation, Sparky performed daily at WuChella, where Tommy Tate was in attendance, whilst there, he was listening to SK's music, not content that Dwayne had passed up on the opportunity to sign him. Following WuChella, Tommy later pursued his keen interest in Sparky and with Dwayne's assistance, they began their attempt to poach him from Wu Chang Records.

Rags To Riches.

Sparky soon met with valentine Dalla to discuss the future of Wu Chang Records, upcoming releases, and other related matters. During the conversation, SK expressed concerns about his inability to connect with the rest of the roster, feeling isolated due to a lack of communication. As the dialogue progressed, Sparky hoped that Valentine would offer reassurance and support, but instead, she presented a differing viewpoint. She suggested that he was not reliant on them and essentially affirmed his sentiments.

A few days later, Sparky approached P Money to discuss the possibility of leaving Wu Chang, explaining that MDM Records aligned more closely with his interests and aspirations. He eventually agreed to switch labels from Wu Chang to MDM Records, where he signed and released hit tracks like Rivalry, Demon Time, and Medusa.

Sparking Conflict.

During his time producing music, Sparky Kane was a fairly controversial artist and frequently released diss tracks directed towards criminal organisations, such as Seaside, and musical groups, like the Bimbos, as well as governmental bodies, e.g., the Police Department.

SK also played a major role in the deterioration of relationships between The Mandem and Chang Gang, as a line in one of his songs was directed at Wu Chang's failure to pay him during his time at the label. This lyric was then overheard at the Vanilla Unicorn by members of CG during the infamous Big Toe concert. In the subsequent afterparty at the Mandem Block, members of Chang Gang pulled up with the purpose of causing havoc and blowing up the festivities. In the confusion, Sparky fired the first few shots, igniting what would prove to be one of the most notorious conflicts ever in Los Santos' history.

Integral Part Of The Roadmen.

Outside of music and after spending a few months conducting small-scale drug dealing and petty crime, Sparky Kane would be approached by The Mandem, recruiting him in what would become Mandem's short-lived street team, The Roadmen . During this time, Sparky became a key member and along with Jay Martin, the pair were leading figures of the group. Sparky and The Roadmen operated out of Blue Cage and were known to assist The Mandem in their weed and meth activities, as well as partaking in high-speed car boosting and establishment heists. The Roadmen regularly clashed with other groups such as The Aztecas, and also Hydra Gang, after they sought to claim Blue Cage as part of their vast turf.

Following The Roadmen's active involvement in Mandem affairs, most importantly the Mandem and Seaside conflict, the group was eventually disbanded on the orders of Tommy Tate, who was approached by Dean Quincy about the possibility of incorporating the Roadmen members into The Mandem, as their associates, known as 'MDMA'. Patar Bellosh would be the figure to set up an event and bring in Sparky and the Roadmen.

The Prodigy

Sparky Kane was already a promising associate, having been the first incorporated into The Mandem, he'd develop a close bond with Mandem Leader Tommy Tate. In Tommy's eyes, he seen the potential in Sparky and thus, viewed him as his prodigy, offering him any needed guidance and assistance. At one point in time, Sparky was homeless and Tommy offered to house him as a roommate, where Sparky slept on the couch.

When becoming a Full Member, Sparky Kane quickly rose to become one of the more influential members in the gang, often leading complex drug operations involving the sale of Cocaine, Pills, and Lean. Sparky himself is a fairly street-smart individual, however, having impulsive tendencies and being ADHD riddled meant that Sparky was prone to occasional mistakes, one such moment was when he was stung by the LSPD numerous times for both the sale of narcotics and drug trafficking. One of Sparky's more impulsive moments was also the faking of his own death at his 'music retirement' show, in order to escape one his then fiancée, Elena Vega.

Influencing The Mandem.

Even before holding a commanding rank in The The Mandem's hierarchy, Sparky Kane had an important role to play in The Mandem, he was known to be one of the very few members that was able to get through and control some of the more troublesome members, such as Dean Quincy and Matthew Antov. With his ability, charisma, as well as respect from the other gang members in mind, Sparky was officially brought in The Mandem's high command structure alongside Jay Martin and Denzel Wallace, by de-facto leader/second-in-command Patar Bellosh and third-in-command Eli Porter.

The Steady Downfall Of Leadership.

Patar Bellosh's chaotic leadership in his place, is what would eventually spell the end of The Mandem in Los Santos and lead Sparky Kane down a very dark path. Following an extensive court case back in England, Tommy Tate returned to Los Santos with a desire to step away from leadership of The Mandem. This desire was particularly strong once he heard that many of the assets and relationships that he had worked hard to achieve during his leadership were now in wreck and ruin. In an emotionally charged meeting at Tommy's mansion in Tongva Hills, Sparky Kane was elected the new leader of The Mandem. Unfortunately for Sparky, during this meeting, members of The Mandem had refused to let Tommy step away from the gang and Sparky also made it clear to Tommy that he would not be allowed to leave the gang peacefully.

After only a few days of leadership, Tommy Tate arranged a meeting between himself, Patar Bellosh and Sparky in a metro station. In this meeting Sparky and Tommy butted heads over the new direction of the gang, with Sparky keen to give all The Mandem members a fresh start under his leadership, and Tommy urging him to be more ruthless and get rid of the members Tommy saw as 'deadwood'. As the meeting was drawing to a close, Tommy Tate grew frustrated with Sparky and threw his Mandem chain on the floor and walked away. Being true to his word at Tommy's mansion, Sparky Kane pulled out his revolver, aimed at Tommy, and shot him in his back as he left the subway. Before getting into Patar's vehicle, Sparky stood over the bleeding, incapacitated body of his former mentor and said:

"You taught me to be a man of my word T, I loved you".

This moment marked a great shift in Sparky's mind, he became more out of touch, ruthless, and cold to the core.

The Conflict.

Immediately following the subsequent blood-out of Tommy Tate, Patar Bellosh, angry by what Tommy had said about them in the subway, decided to drain the accounts and steal assets from the businesses that he had helped manage for Tommy. Sparky had not been consulted prior to Patar's actions, but as the newly elected leader, Sparky stood by Patar's actions. After experiencing the betrayal of his former prodigy and learning about what Patar had done, Tommy used his personal resources and the connections he built during his time in the city to seek revenge on Sparky, Patar and the rest of The Mandem.

The conflict that shortly erupted ended tragically with Patar Bellosh losing his left arm following Vince Watson's treatment and The Mandem taking ages to figure out Patar's location. Hydra Gang had also repossessed the Methlab key, severing The Mandem access to the lab. Then, to end it all, Tommy, organised Bombs be planted at the Mandem Block, later confronting them and blowing up the block in front of Sparky and the rest of The Mandem. This conflict had profound long term effects on Sparky's mental health with him having frequent PTSD episodes in which he relives certain events of the conflict.

The First Lesson.

That day, The Mandem lost their home, and Sparky, walking through the rubble that consumed the now former block, stood atop the exact spot that Tommy and Dwayne had envisioned Mandem would reside from. James Malding joined his side, invoking some words of encouragement: "you really do have it in you to be a great leader". Sparky soon text Tommy, and T responded with:

"This is your first lesson. Dust yourself off and try again".

Following the block explosion, Sparky and The Mandem parted their separate ways. For majority of the five years, Sparky was away from Los Santos as the borders closed. Rumour has it, that the reason Sparky went underground and departed from his life of crime was because he murdered an infamous gang leader back in London.

Current Information (Pt. 1)

The Return To Los Santos.
4th Century


Following the five year period where the city underwent a rebuild post-economic collapse, the borders reopened, and Sparky returned to the city from the UK a different man to that when he left, When arriving off the plane, his hair and beard were overgrown and ungroomed, with Sparky wearing clothing very uncharacteristic to his style. Allegedly, he had stayed clean and not commited crime whilst laying low, but upon returning, Sparky quickly delved back into old habits, bad habits. The first criminal offense that that Sparky was caught for following his return Los Santos , was the armed robbery of a Gruppe 6 worker for a singular cigarette. It was this charge that very much set Sparky onto the path of crime again, and he started heavily distributing weed and organising armed robberies. His early activities resulted in some conflict with KURVICA, a newly formed Polish gang, after Sparky robbed Charles Espresso. Sparky has also organised a number of secretive operations, including the stealing of a crowbar from Eugene Zuckerburg, the kidnapping of Sal Rosenberg with Carmella Corset, and the stealing of 100 thousand dollars from Scam Squad.

After the collapse of the block, and the economic crisis that ensued, all of The Mandem had parted ways, but upon the borders reopening, Sparky returned and soon reconnected with a few prior acquaintances like Kevin Ram, and eventually, previous gang members, such as Matthew Antov and Jay Martin. A group soon formed that had a collective of former Mandem members as well as new faces in the fold. Sparky and this collective purchased a property on Grove Street due to them being approached by the East Side Ballas to purchase the house next door to their own, as they trusted them more than the likes of Chang Gang who had also just moved into the area. The group that invested into the house were not a gang or a coherent criminal organisation, but very soon a smaller group (The Manor) within the house formed made up of those that Sparky had begun to work closely with. This group included: James Malding, Matthew Antov, Terry Linkston, Eli Porter, Stephen "Ste" O'Connor and Saint Martin. Sparky has also expressed interest in working with Capped "Pigeon" Tarranova, Shankquan O'Neal, and Gigi Costello.

The Pigeon & Columbian Cartel Business.

Upon his return to Los Santos, Sparky reconnected with his old friend "Pigeon", who made him aware of an opportunity to work as a lead distributor for the Colombian Cartel. Sparky had already been distributing marijuana in partnership with Dexx Martin, but he accepted Pigeon and the Cartel's offer to act as a distributor and also as an enforcer when needed. For now, he has been mainly distributing weed on behalf of the Cartel, conducting drops from Crusade Estate, his traphouse in Grove Street, and Ganton Court.

Outside of Cartel business, Sparky is known in the city as a top weed distributor with the homeless man that lives under the bridge, Benny, who respects him as one of the top sellers in the city. In partnership with Eli Porter, who is a master grower, Sparky and a few others from the Grove Street house started their own strain of weed called "Barrett .50 Cali" (Currently "Dank Lampard"). Sparky and his associates had hoped to claim turf and push their strain on Crusade Estate, but following conversations with The Saints and DJ Cooper, they realised it was not yet possible. As a result, they chose instead to claim the Ballas turf surrounding their house, and pushed their strain there.

The Founding Of The Manor.

Following the robbery of Terry Linkston and James Malding during a Gruppe 6 job, Sparky and a few others searched for Jean Paul and Ginger Ale in order to get revenge. Spotting Jean Paul at the hospital, Terry Linkston hid in the trunk of Jean Paul's car eventually hopping out and robbing him at knifepoint in Legion Square. In the robbery Terry managed to acquire a PD Glock and USB device that Jean Paul had hidden in a nearby bush. In the aftermath of the robbery, Sparky and the others involved met up at Ganton Court to discuss their next steps. Very quickly, the conversation turned to naming the group that had begun to form within the Grove Street House. In the end, Sparky and the others settled on the name "The Manor" and intend to at least initially hold down Ganton Court as their area. The Manor as a name is an ode to the British slang term Manor: Meaning the estate or area under the control of a criminal group.

The Manor's History Of Conflict.

The Manor quickly rose to prominence over the early months, with Sparky Kane as the leader and STE O'Connor soon sworn in as second-in-command, the pair lead the gang to establish themselves as a serious contender to the top gangs in the city. It seemed that The Manor were destined for greatness, this however, soon grew further from achieving, with a tainted reputation from a series of troublesome moments, all these series of problems spiraled out of control into what would culminate in a grave betrayal, pathing the way for the downfall and restructure to come.

During The Manor's swift ascent in status, their reputation saw the likes of Chang Gang, Hydra Gang, and The Besties test and put The Manor back in their place. In the early times, Manor and Chang Gang's conflict resulted in an alliance, with Mr. K guiding the newly formed group along their path, this was their first test, and Sparky saw an opportunity to work with CG in the future, this would be beneficial. After tensions had risen following petty exchanges between Hydra Gang and Manor, they would be tested once again. Hydra sought to humble The Manor and conflict broke out with Hydra putting the pressure on from the get go, this war showed the city that The Manor was a group that could contest the leading gangs of Los Santos. After doing fairly well in the first war, the second was much less even. Hydra re-established themselves as the top gang, and The Manor were forced to concede defeat. Currently, both Hydra Gang and Manor harbour a great relationship with one another.

Swiftly following this, tensions with The Besties that had been fairly continuous eventually boiled over and another war soon erupted. This conflict, more brutal than the others, casted The Manor down into despair, with a humbling defeat that was overdue. Sparky Kane made the call to repay the $250,000 that was stolen from Future Hendrix in a previous incident, ending the war in the process.

The Terry Linkston Incident.

On September 16th, 2024, Sparky was informed about a dispute that erupted between Terry Linkston, Max Brown and Shlomi Specter, what was initially a minor disagreement that lead to hand-to-hand scrapping and vehicle ocean dumping. It became a very major situation when Max antagonised Terry to shoot him, Terry succumb to his short-temperedness and shot Max, along with Shlomi, before being put down by STE O'Connor, who soon took his flag and disassociated with him. Sparky was also informed about the ensuing calamity that pursued, with the blooding-out of Terry's wife Kylie Kane, for shooting Max in the Hospital's Intensive Care Area.

It was said that following this situation, Kylie met in "secret" with Terry's long time friend and Manor member Keandre Davis. After discussing what took place moments prior, Kylie was found by STE and others, nad with Saint Martin and Tati Donatacci in proximity, she was pursued and attempted to flee with the girls, not before punching Max, however, she was once again shot down. Both Saint and Tati confronted STE for how he handled the situation, Kylie was also now focused on revenge. Afterwards, a text conversation between STE and Kylie got particularly heated, in which STE told Kylie that if she tried anything, he would "pack up her and her husband again". Later on, Gigi Costello had informed STE about the girls conversing about what took place, and brought forth a troubling point, Kylie was now in possession of a firearm handed to her by Saint, and with one purpose in mind, revenge. That day pushed Saint's decision to disassociate from The Manor, following her sense of loss and feelings of being excluded.

After hearing this information, Sparky Kane, now feeling a sense of sadness, met with Saint Martin to confirm her decision, Sparky remarked, saying "It's like losing a sister", then the two finally departed from one another. Tati Donatacci also confided deep in herself, seeing that with all that has happened, and seeing her closest girls now gone, she spoke to Sparky, and also put down her flag. Feeling his heart was now fractured, Sparky grew even more distant, cold, and emotionless, with each person leaving, his sister, brother-in-law, and closest friends, Sparky reminisced on his memories with them and pushed onward.

The Betrayal.

A couple days later, Sparky received the news that Terry Linkston was finally out of ICU and thus arranged to meet with him and Kylie on Chumash Pier to speak about everything that happened. In the following talk, Sparky stood by STE's decision to blood out Terry, but expressed his long standing support and feelings for his brother-in-law. In the conversation Sparky had with Kylie, Kylie shed light on some of the issues in the gang in terms of excluding people and they both argued back and forth over numerous ongoing issues. Whilst Sparky was speaking with his sister, Terry met with Dre and Luke Atar at the pier. As 'Sparky' continued conversing with Kylie, Dre left to do other "things", and gave Terry the opportunity to hold up Luke and Sparky.

"this is on STE for coming after my wife .... you're letting him do it!" Terry stated.

Sparky, being held at gunpoint, spoke directly to Terry, opening up about always vouching for him and his unbound respect he holds for him, and couldn't fathom the current situation Terry had imposed. Trying to dissuade the situation, Kylie came forth, stepping between the two parties, in her words, it was all on STE, Sparky had no involvement. However, Sparky growing increasingly frustrated snapped at Terry shouting:

"I don't have loved ones anymore, I gave away my personal life for this shit Terry, I ain't got shit no more, I ain't had shit in years, this is me now, Manor is me, I am Manor".

Feeling hurt by this, Kylie Kane then turned on her brother and stepped away to Terry's side and pulled her gun as well. Sparky again told Terry that although he had disagreed with STE on some points, he retorted, "I am The Manor, so if you have a problem with STE, you have a problem with me".

Terry then shouts,
"I am sorry but this has to be done, even though I love you... it's an eye for an eye".
After reaffirming his point, Sparky declares, "I don't love you no more, do it!"

Hearing this, Kylie and Terry pull the trigger and shoot Sparky who fell on the deck, incapacitated with his vitals plummeting, Luke who had been stood off to the side then pulled his gun but was also shot down. In a full circle moment, what Sparky had done to Tommy Tate all those years had once again re-occurred, this time with Terry pulling the trigger.

The Bittersweet Aftermath.

In the aftermath that followed, Sparky Kane and Luke Atar were rushed to the Hospital by Matthew Antov. At their arrival, Luke was lucky, his vitals were stable as he was only grazed by the bullet, so he was patched up and quickly recovered. Sparky's condition was more severe, his injuries required more attention and he was placed in the intensive care unit. As the situation continued, Sparky was still in the ICU when he was received by majority of The Manor. They spoke to a Sparky that was fading in and out of consciousness about what had happened, it seemed that with no leadership in their presence, the group flocked to Luke and Matthew, and they made the decision to take Keandre Davis' flag and remove his keys after finding out about his and Terry's messages that could have prevented the whole situation from occurring. Whilst he was conscious, Sparky heard of Dre's status.

"fuck him, take his keys to everywhere, fuck him". Sparky uttered.

As he became temporarily stable, Sparky reached for his phone and messaged Luke, making him an OG, and messaged Matt, telling him he was proud of him and that he had done well.

A New Year, New Sparky.
4th Century


Sparky Kane had been through the most, and emerged stronger, however, it had been a long year full of triumphs and tribulations, loss of family and the burden of leadership had its toll on a burnt out Sparky. Having an idea in mind, Sparky and majority of The Manor headed to LSIA, deciding to take a short holiday to the UK and get active abroad.

Arriving in London, England, Sparky was quick to reacquaint with Matthew Antov, Luke Atar, and James Malding and an old face. This was Remy Brown, thought to be killed by the Ukrainians in late 2021, he was last around when The Mandem were still on their rise to prominence. That day, a group was starting to form, consisting of Sparky, Other Manor members such as Matthew Antov, Frank Scaletta, and James Malding, as well as other faces like Terry Linkston, his brother Jay "JJ" Linkston, Ronnie "Dinns" Brogan, and Remy Brown. Their group soon became known as "DLD" (Devious Lick Division), a group which left its impact in London as they terrorised the streets and invoked numerous conflicts with the other criminal organisations and gangs.

Sparky was an early figurehead in their come up, often being the spokesperson and diplomat of DLD. However, as time went on, leaders were elected, and mass recruiting occurred, the DLD that was established in early January was different, Sparky and some OG members voiced their concerns, JJ and Dinns disassociated, forming their own crew, and what remained was far from what was formed.

The Call For A Restructure.

On February 3rd, 2025, Sparky Kane returned a few days after most of The Manor had returned. The holiday was fulfilling as it worked as a cleanse of the mind, Sparky's month away revitalised his mindset in the city, he was fresh and active once again. Coming back to Los Santos, Sparky and The Manor returned to Grove Street and met with the members that never left, catching up on the current scene and discussing about what's to come.
