Pagan's Motorcycle Club

[Live Pagan, Die Pagan]

 

  
Club History
The Pagan's Motorcycle Club is one of the most infamous outlaw biker gangs in the U.S, being founded in 1959 by Lou Dobkin in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
 

Originally, they were more of a social riding club, centered around motorcycles and brotherhood, being fairly non-violent and more about camaraderie or riding. But by the late 1960s, they had shifted into a full-fledged outlaw motorcycle gang (OMG), adopting a more organized structure, embracing the outlaw lifestyle, and gaining a reputation for violence and criminal activity along the East Coast.
 

 

A swelling mass of new members put the Pagans on the path to evolve into an OMG. The Pagans claim to have invented and adopted the 1%er patch, referencing the newspaper articles of the time. This 1%er patch was quickly adopted by most other OMGs. A swelling mass of new members put the Pagans on the path to evolve into an OMG. A swelling mass of new members put the Pagans on the path to evolve into an OMThe term "1%er" comes from the notion that 99% of motorcyclists are law-abiding, and 1% are the “outlaws.” The Pagans embraced that identity.

  

Fashion
Members wear sleeveless denim vests (sometimes leather) with their club patches (“colors”). The back patch features the Norse fire giant Surtr holding a flaming sword, along with the word Pagans and the “1%er” diamond. Unlike some other clubs, their cuts are often plain blue denim rather than fancy customized leather. The style is meant to feel intimidating and raw, a reflection of their violent reputation. Compared to other outlaw clubs that sometimes play into “biker fashion,” Pagans keep a more street-level outlaw appearance.

Their look is completed with blue jeans, boots, plain tees or flannels, and minimal accessories like bandanas, chains, or dark sunglasses, with many also displaying club-related tattoos on visible areas of the body. Unlike some rival clubs that favor more elaborate or customized gear, the Pagans deliberately keep their fashion rugged and unembellished, projecting a no-frills image of toughness and loyalty to the brotherhood.
 

 

Keeping with their own traditions, the Pagan's refer to their vests and patches strictly as “colors,” not “kuttes” like many other motorcycle clubs do. This distinction is more than just wording, it reflects their identity and the seriousness with which they regard their membership. To a Pagan, the colors are sacred, representing loyalty to the club above all else.

  

Criminal Background & Expansion

The Pagans are considered one of the “Big Five” outlaw motorcycle gangs in the U.S., alongside the Hells Angels, Outlaws, Bandidos and Sons of Silence. Law enforcement agencies classify them as a serious organized crime group tied to drug trafficking (meth, cocaine, heroin), weapons smuggling, extortion, racketeering, as well as violent crimes directed at rival gangs, including arson, assault, bombing, extortion and murder, especially against the Hells Angels. At their height, the Pagans had thousands of members. Mostly concentrated along the East Coast (MD, PA, NJ, NY, VA, NC), with signs of aggressive expansion. Their internal structure is rigid, with a “Mother Club” leadership that controls chapters nationwide, and their reputation is built on extreme violence.

 

The Pagans have also been linked to La Cosa Nostra crime families in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, New York and New Jersey. The club also utilizes puppet clubs, affiliated street gangs and female associates to carry out retail drug distribution. The Pagans have been involved in rivalries with various other motorcycle gangs, most notably a long-running feud with the Hells Angels.

 

In recent years, the Pagans are no longer content with their traditional East Coast stronghold, steadily moving westward into states like Ohio, Indiana, and even parts of California where rival clubs have long dominated. This push reflects both recruitment drives and the absorption of smaller regional clubs, signaling a deliberate attempt to extend their influence nationwide. Their growing presence in the Midwest and beyond has raised alarm among federal and local law enforcement agencies, who view the expansion as an effort to challenge rival organizations and gain greater control over drug distribution corridors that stretch across the United States.

We aim to create a realistic and enjoyable outlaw 1%er Motorcycle Club role-play environment, more specifically, a portrayal of the Pagans MC’s, with chapters stretching through Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Virginia, and beyond. We strive to uphold the gritty, no-frills image of the Pagan's, living up to their reputation as one of the most violent and secretive outlaw clubs in America. Standing true to the stories of real-life Pagans members and the club itself, many characters here role-play as blue-collar outlaws, ex-cons, and working-class toughs from industrial towns and rural backroads, though this isn’t mandatory—our environment also welcomes a mix of characters that reflect the club’s diverse East Coast roots.

When the San Andreas chapter planted their roots, they chose Willowfield as their stronghold, staking their claim in the heart of a gritty industrial district that mirrored their no-frills image. The area’s mix of warehouses, back-alley bars, and working-class neighborhoods offered both cover and opportunity, giving the Pagans a place to operate while projecting their presence to anyone passing through. Their clubhouse became a landmark of sorts, a fortress draped in Pagan colors that signaled the Blue Wave had not just reached the West Coast but dug in deep. To rivals, Willowfield was a line in the sand, proof that the Pagans weren’t just visiting but here to stay.



The chapter was strictly forged out of the Blue Wave, an East Coast mandate to slam Pagan colors onto new soil. What started as just a few riders, became proof the Blue Wave had reached the Pacific expansion at any cost. The membership rules have loosened under the Blue Wave, the old days of small, selective growth gave way to faster recruitment, absorbing smaller clubs and street crews. New chapters have been planted in places the Pagans never had presence, from deeper into the South, Midwest, and eventually pushing all the way to the West Coast, which is exactly what the San Andreas chapter had achieved.
