1. We protect the innocent. This is an roleplay. Mature themes that could relate to violence, ual themes, etc. will be written out throughout the course of this RP. We will not accept anyone underage.

2. Don’t talk about Fight Club. All IC interactions remain in character. All OOC interactions will remain out of character. Don’t mix both of them up. God Modding is a definite no, and mixing IC drama into OOC relationships and vice versa will result in a violation. You will be warned, with a strike system of 3. This also goes for violation of any other rules.

3. Prohibition has made nothing but trouble. There will be very mature themes that will go on. However, major plot changers will have to be run with admins for approval (i.e. Major Injuries, Character Death, etc.).

4. The Mafia needs your money. Activity will not be strict, we understand that everyone has a life and so do we! We will be checking on in character activity every Sunday of the week and if we notice any inactivity we’ll check on you, but if you know you’ll be away for a while, do inform us! That being said, all muns are allowed to pick up a maximum of two characters.

5. Either You’re Somebody, or You Ain’t Nobody. We are not highly strict on banned FCs (save for FCs that are deceased, outright problematic or have asked not to be used). We will, however, take any member’s requests for FCs that they do not necessarily feel comfortable with. Feel free to let us know! We'll be accepting FCs of any descent as the RP is set in modern day USA.

THE ROMANO FAMILY

The powerhouse of the Italian-American Mafia. The Romano family were loose associates of the Marcanos before their fall in the 60s. After having heard about the fall of the Italian Mob, followed shortly by Lincoln Clay’s disappearance, the Don at the time took it upon himself to pick the slack and ensure that New Bordeaux didn’t stray too far. Since then, they had built their empire and have taken over most of the economy that keeps the city the powerhouse it is today.

THE GRECO FAMILY

Descendants of a multitude of Mafia families across the East Coast. The Greco family is the oil that keeps the operations of the Romano family running. Though they aren’t as powerful as the Romano family, or as notorious, they are the backbone of its operations and have just as much influence on the Underworld.

THE CLAY FAMILY

The epitome of the melting pot of culture in the South, they consist of various people regardless of gender, color and age. The Clay family started with associates of Lincoln Clay who fled from the Northern parts of New Bordeaux in between the time of Lincoln’s disappearance and the Romano takeover. They set up shop in the South and governs most of its districts and businesses. They have good connections with the Lee Family and helped them start up.

THE LEE FAMILY

Home of the Asian community of New Bordeaux, the Lee’s began their business on accident, only helping immigrants who tried to chase after their dreams in New Bordeaux, but once they started being noticed for the trouble they could potentially cause, the Clay family took them in and helped them begin the family. As associates, the Lee manages a lot of the businesses named under the Clay’s, and they handle a lot of underground dealings to hide it from the Romanos and Grecos.
