Hounds

The NLAPD Special Response Unit 'Bloodhound' is a collection of convicts and volunteers who are chosen and trained to deal with extreme threats to the public as well as the city of New LA. It is a branch of the NLAPD, and they are technically classified as police regardless of their status as convicted felons and outcasts. Thus, at times, they perform similar duties to that of standard police officers as well as SWAT members. They are able to investigate crimes, explore crime scenes, gather evidence, and so on.

They have a different set of codes to abide by when it comes to their version of law enforcement. When the Bloodhounds are activated, that usually means that collateral damage will be disregarded for the most part. There will be acceptable losses, for the sake of protecting the city and its inhabitants as a whole. So, they are often allowed to use deadly force in order to stop threats or dispense justice. SWAT often provides assistance in the event that individuals need to be arrested while the Bloodhounds need to focus on other threats.

The Bloodhounds are divided up into four teams: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta. All teams have a general Support staff to assist them during their operations. From intelligence, to tactical advice, to weaponry procurement and deployment. Often, the Bloodhounds will also employ a 'public relations' representative to maintain a positive image with the public.
