The Nightstreet Gang is a criminal organization that operates near Ironstand and in the surrounding area. Their targets are usually cities in or near the roughs.[1]

History[edit]

The Nightstreet Gang robs a train that Wax, Wayne, Steris, Marasi, and MeLaan are riding to New Seran. The attack takes place on the train line before the town of Ironstand.[1] The motive of this robbery is mainly financial: the target of the heist is the bank car present on the train.[2] However, the gang was actually hired by Kelesina Shores to attack the train in order to distract Wax from his mission.[3] Edwarn Ladrian was the mastermind behind this plan.[4] The gang is assisted directly by Set member Irich, who provides them with Primer Cubes.[2][5] In order to escape the train safely, the Gang throws Irich off the train into a river directly next to the tracks.[6]

The Gang they appears to be unaware of the details of their mission. First, they attack the entire train, not just Wax's car.[2] Second, they were surprised at Wax's presence on the train, given their lack of anti-allomancer battle tactics.[1] Additionally, they are inexperienced at robbing trains, according to Wax. Instead of forcing the train to stop in order to board, they attack on horseback.[2]

The gang's resources are substantial. They use a chemical weapon in order to remove resistance from the train's bank car, and are equipped with what appear to be gas masks in order to protect themselves. Additionally, they employ at least one metalborn: a Coinshot takes part in the heist, breaking into the armored train car and fighting Wax directly. Despite all of this, they do not wear masks to protect their identities, another clue that they were hired by someone.[2]

The Gang is left decimated by this attack. Despite successfully escaping with their ill-gotten gains, Constable Matieu claims that half of the attackers were killed or captured by Wax.[1]

Known Members[edit]

  • Donny, the leader, a small, spirited koloss-blodded man.[1]
