[edit] 3rd Street Saints
The 3rd Street Saints were the most prominent and powerful gang in Stilwater at the end of the original Saints Row. However, the Saints collapsed almost immediately after they conquered the city. With the protagonist out of action, the rest of the Saints dropped out and the gang fell apart. However, five years later, the protagonist comes out of a coma and busts out of jail with Carlos a man who claims he has a brother in The 3rd Street Saints, and reforms the Saints with a new crew. Original Saint Johnny Gat who is about to be sentenced to Death Row is busted out of a courtroom precession by the protagonist, and two new Saints, Shaundi and Pierce join the crew with the protagonist, Johnny and Carlos to reclaim the turf they once ruled.
[edit] The Brotherhood
The Brotherhood was formed from the outcasts of society, those long victimized by gang warfare and police corruption. The Brotherhood are an aggressive gang with a 'kill now, ask questions later' attitude. The Brotherhood engage in murder, extortion and violence to fuel their empire, and are engaged in an underground weapon trade providing violent means for city citizens. The gang is headed by Maero, a seven-foot-tall warrior willing to fight anyone that stands in his way. Lieutenants Matt and Jessica stand loyally at his side, and former Westside Roller Donnie not only operates his own chop shop, but also flies the flags of the Brotherhood. Donnie is extremely disliked by all lieutenants in the brotherhood. The Brotherhood are picked out by their numerous piercings and tattoos, the wolf head logo, the bright color red and gas-guzzling trucks.
[edit] Sons of Samedi
An internationally-known gang that conquered the Caribbean underworld, the Sons of Samedi are a Haitian gang that have spread themselves into Stilwater. A Voodoo-style gang, the Sons of Samedi pay tribute to Baron Samedi, the Voodoo Loa of death. Decked out in green outfits and state-of-the-art jewelry, the Sons of Samedi gain a continual cash flow from the Loa Dust drug trade across Stilwater, selling to many inhabitants and preying on the young and reckless college students. The Sons of Samedi's Stilwater division is overseen by one known only as the General, and violent extortionist/drug trader Mr. Sunshine spreads their message across Stilwater with ruthless violence and a thirst for power. There is also DJ Veteran Child, a DJ for one of Stilwater’s radio stations, who is also a lieutenant for the Sons of Samedi and Shaundi's Ex-boyfriend. The gang may be based on the real-life Dominican gang, the Trinitarios.
[edit] Ronin
The Ronin are the self-proclaimed most powerful gang in the world. The Ronin can best be identified by their dragon-influenced yellow and black custom leathers, as well as by their flashy bikes. Essentially a Japanese gang, the Ronin control much of the entertainment industry in Stilwater, engaging in gambling, street racing and owning numerous high roller casinos throughout the city. Shogo Akuji left the streets of Tokyo and formed the Ronin. His father, Akuji-san finances and oversees the gang, and orders Shogo around in how to run the faction. In Japanese, ronin literally translates as a samurai warrior whose master, or daimyo, has been banished or is dead. There is currently 1 unamed member of the Ronin.
[edit] Ultor Corporation
Ultor are a major figure in Saints Row 2. Mainly responsible for the cleanup of Stilwater, Ultor originally began as a clothing company and quickly became a major corporation. Ultor pumped millions into the city and it was completely overhauled, turning the once crime-ridden city into an "urban utopia". The Saints Row district, for example, has been turned into a booming commercial industry, and serves as the district for Ultor headquarters. The company's name comes from the mega-corporation that the player rebels against in the Volition-developed game Red Faction.
