# Hostages

Fake hostages are <mark style="color:red;">**NOT**</mark> allowed. A hostage is determined to be fake when they are not taken spontaneously and there is a predetermined arrangement to be, or take, somebody hostage. It should be unreasonable given most circumstances to ever take a member of your own gang or your own friends hostage. The hostage takers should create some amount of tension and the hostages should be exhibiting some kind of fear towards the threat of their situation.&#x20;

{% hint style="danger" %}
It would be considered "Fail RP" to approach someone and ask if you can "borrow them for a job". As a hostage taker, the person you are taking hostage should be scared of you (point your weapon, demand they comply, take their communication devices and weapons while they are in your custody, use zip ties or handcuffs, etc).
{% endhint %}
