Description[]

The Satan's Mothers Motorcycle Club (SMMC), commonly known as simply the Satan's Mothers, or the Mothers, are an outlaw motorcycle gang from Sheepshead Bay. They are one of the toughest and most powerful gangs in all of New York City, and are led by Tiny and Spider. Their main business seems to be drug dealing.

All of their members are White and have the typical biker appearance; most members sport long hair, facial hair, and/or tattoos, and all members wear black leather vests with their logo (Satan's face, sandwiched between the top rocker, reading "Satan's", and bottom rocker, reading "Mothers") on the back. Their vests also have the letters "MC" on the back.

They are one of the most (if not the most) ruthless, tough gangs in New York; they are organised, very strong, and completely fearless. While they're not as skilled or talented as The Riffs, The Huns, or The Warriors, their sheer brawn and raw muscle proves a difficult opponent in a brawl (even surpassing that of The Turnbull ACs), and earns them a well-respected and feared rep across the city. They do not need weapons for a fight, as their fists prove deadly enough; each soldier and lieutenant is roughly as strong as Ajax.

However, whilst they can dish out a beating, they aren't as good at taking one as one might expect, as their health drains a bit quicker in the game than that of several other gangs.

History[]

The Satan's Mothers were formed sometime before April 16, 1978. They are responsible for much of the illegal drug and weapon distribution throughout Brooklyn and New Jersey. When conducting business deals with civilians and other gangs, they prefer no surprises or last minute changes and are quite easy to irritate.

In The Film[]

Though not directly encountered during the film, The Satan's Mothers can be seen in the conclave during the meeting, along with every other gang that was invited.

In The Game[]

The Satan's Mothers make an appearance in Roots (set in 1978), where they were to buy some drugs from The Destroyers. When Virgil doesn't show up, Cleon and Vermin unknowingly give The Satan's Mothers fake drugs, which infuriates the biker gang, and they immediately attempt to kill Cleon and Vermin, forcing the pair to run for their lives, later searching for a way out of the warehouse they took refuge in. Several of the Mothers' scouts search the warehouse for Cleon and Vermin, forcing them to perform stealth attacks from the shadows. Optionally, Cleon can break the scouts' necks, or Vermin can knock them out. Either way, Spider and Tiny eventually fight against Cleon and Vermin, but they get wrecked in the ensuing brawl. It is soon revealed that Cleon and Vermin were purposely given fake drugs, as Virgil believed the Satan's Mothers would kill Cleon and Vermin for attempting to hustle them. This is because Virgil was becoming paranoid of Cleon trying to take his place as the Destroyers leader.

They next appear in a bonus objective, where 22 members of the gang try to start trouble in West Coney, only to get wrecked. Their exact motive for trying to invade The Warriors' turf is unknown, but it's possible that Spider and Tiny somehow found out that Cleon and Vermin started up their own gang, and decided to attempt to take revenge for the bad drug deal from a year earlier, with the Mothers apparently never finding out that it was actually Virgil who shafted them. Given their attitude, it's doubtful that they would have cared and they probably would have invaded the Warriors turf anyway just to get revenge for being defeated (and therefore preserve their rep).

After Encore, Spider is killed by Ghost, after a deal went sour, leaving Tiny as Warlord.

They appear at the big meeting in Desperate Dudes.

The Satan's Mothers can also be seen in a few instances in No Permits, No Parley. After the big fight with The Orphans, and The Warriors are split up, Swan and Snow can first rescue Cochise from the cops. Next to Cochise are the cops fighting two Satan's Mothers. Fox, potentially the next Warrior to be rescued, has been wrecked just next to a dark area. Once you approach Fox's body and heal him, a group of three Satan's Mothers will appear out of the dark area, who presumably wrecked Fox beforehand. Later, after approaching Cowboy's unconscious body, and healing him, another group of Mothers will slowly approach you, wanting to fight, probably meaning that they beat up Cowboy as well. They can also be seen fleeing from cops in other scenes of the level.

Trivia[]

They are loosely based on the real life motorcycle club, the 'Hells Angels'.
Despite being one of the heaviest sets in the city, their health drains fairly quickly. However, they can be real hard hitters if they land a good combo on you, especially with the planks they specialize in.
In one of The D.J.'s fail dialogues for Boys In Blue, she mentions that several members of the Satan's Mothers and The Turnbull ACs got busted. This probably means that they were originally in the level.
An unknown Satan's Mother appear at the meeting behind Hammer, Desmond, and near Gus, he have long black hair, moustache, wearing a long black and white bandana wrapped around his head, black sunglasses, yellow shirt, black jeans, black boots, and unbuttoned brown SMMC's vest. Fans speculated that it's a beta version of Ted which is unlikely because Ted appear not far from him in the meeting, others assume that it's a beta version of Goober or Kevin K which also is unlikely because beta version of Goober also appear not far from him, and Kevin K also appear at the meeting, it's also unlikely that he's a beta version of Spice because this unknown Satan's Mothers looks nothing to Spice.
In the movie, they're wearing dark blue denim vest instead of brown leather vest like in the game, although there are two members wearing brown coloured vest, one is a light brown denim vest and the other one is wearing dark brown leather vest with only "Satan's Mothers" on it without the proper patch such as the devil's head.
There's an inconsistency with this gang, apparently they originally named as the Satan's Children and two of the members can be seen wearing the same dark blue denim vest and gold shirt like other members but with different devil patch with no white background.
The four generic soldiers of this gang do not possess a power move; instead, they have two unique animations, where they grab their opponent, and punch their head twice. This is similar to the Punk-exclusive bear-hug attack.
- This means that, like the Punks, most Mothers are unable to perform a roundhouse kick, yet able to do a tornado kick, despite the latter being harder to perform in real life.
Before appearing in The Warriors, Satan's Mothers MC also appeared in the movie "KISS: Meets the phantom of the park" in 1978, and twenty years later, they appear in another movie called "A murder of crows" in 1998.
