The BlackOwl Mercenaries was original created by NunoAbelenha in cooperation with fabio_js_pereira. In conversation during a game of GTA Online, in which we noticed that the players did not trust in cooperation with other players, it was clear that it would be necessary to create an organization that would give some support to these players.
Of course we already knew that there was Merryweather in the game. But it can not reach everyone. and it was with this mentality of getting help those in need and has no possibilities, that we created the BlackOwl M.
All part of the choice of symbolism, nomenclature and logo creation was made by Nuno and subsequently exposed to Fábio.
The choice of the owl is based on the following symbolism:
For many people the owl means mystery, intelligence, wisdom and knowledge. She has the ability to see through the darkness, getting to see what others do not see.
In the ancient Era, the owl was the Animal figuration responsible to cut the thread of fate. It was also a representation of death. Thus was both desired and feared.
The black is the mark of the beginning, in alchemy, this serves to indicate a path that will be the recovery of a totality lost.
After made this choices, that was when the first Crew logo appeared.
somewhat archaic, with some struggling lettering. But the symbolism was present.
Now our current logo has a more professional and attractive appearance. and this was also done by NunoAbelenha with a small directional assistance of Azuldimeter.
Little by little the BlackOwl M. began to gain the trust of GTAO players. with it began to get new members, that once they were also helped by OWLM, willing to help others.
It was at this point that arrived some of the most important members in the growth of OWLM.
Members like lTenaciousCl, BartdotB360 and DhaioYume.
Simultaneously with the arrival of these members, it became necessary to create a way to generate greater visibility of what we do so that more people could be able to reach us.
That was when NunoAbelenha created the website and the facebook page of OWLM.
By now some changes happened in Organization. lTenaciousCl is the current crew leader because NunoAbelenha temporarily left that position in an attempt to develop, with fabio_js_pereira, a new special force belonging to Blackowl M., the Yellow Pepper 23 (YP23) .
