I broke free of what has shackled my heart, and what someone has taken advantage of. However, another someone has shown me the way out of that. I am breaking more and more limits and records, now..

Writing has a certain peace and calming effort to it. I still write on that story I've been known to write years prior, but now I've actually had the time to focus and flesh it out, free of negativity

Bio
I but wander from place to place, no need to concern yourself over me unless you wish to get to know me.
Sylvester disguised as a Priest, without the sash, he'd be able to hide the tommygun inside if the outfit was big enough. During this assignment however, he had made a more forward approach. "What's business is business. If this was personal, I'll make sure to let you know first before killing you."
Sylvester "Sylver" L. Silenziatore.
Race: Human. Age: Twenty-three. Occupation: Hitman for the Silenziatore family, next-in-line Don. Faction/Affiliation: Silenziatores Sworn Enemies: Slavers, Business rivals, occasionally the Bureau, Agency, and Law Enforcement. Hopeful Allies: Jin Hui Wei (Not an official ally, but contacted once.), A thorough physical description: Black hair, sometimes bleached or dyed to evade police. Blue eyes. Stands at a fairly tall frame but isn't as muscular. Light skin tone, has the look of a scoundrel. Isn't the definition of handsome, but can cut it for some. Weapons: A custom made marksmanship rifle, along with a .44 revolver, both weapons are similar in design with a black and silver sort of scheme. Neither are named. He does know his way around firearms enough to use them if they're not too complicated. For heavier engagements, prefers a drum Thompson. Skills: Marksmanship, espionage, deception, and knifeplay. Has some capacity to psychologically and emotionally manipulate. Some capacity to modify or jeryrig weapons.
A young scion for the Silenziatore family, if he could be called one. Sylvester is a cold and calculating sort who was trained in the arts of assassination upon a young age, particularly to make him be able to stand up against any criminals after the crime family. Since age sixteen, he was given his first target. A bartender who wouldn't play ball with the family, records claim that Sylvester simply shot the man in the leg and escaped in the chaos as the policy had arrived to the scene. It was said that the bartender survived, but he had been traumatized by the "Look of murder in the kid's eyes." and wouldn't cease to mutter it. Word is that bartender is now in an asylum after a year in prison for violating the ban upon alcohol, which may imply that the man was trampled within the chaos, or it was more than just one shot to the knee that Sylvester has given him.
Due to the fact that much of his time was spent with the crime family, he has barely any time to spend with his biological. He was treated semi-harshly by his Grandfather in his attempt to condition his grandson even further. It's said that Sylver does his work with a straight face, failing to show any sort of glee or anger from a complete hit or a wound gained. These rare times of emotion only occur if Sylver personally believes that the target had deserved it. Some unexplained bullet-ridden deaths of slavers and crime lords may or may not have been connected to him, but the law enforcement was unable to convict him on the crime through evidence that led to others. Some believe that his completed hit rates made some Silenziatore capos may've died because of a hit put on them by the relentless Don. Although it may be believable that Sylvester does it for cash.
With the turbulent behavior of the Silenziatores as of late, and with Sylvester being next in line, it's unknown what he'll do in the cases of if he'll come in control of the family.
The current underboss "Red Lion" with members of the crime family.
Mietitrice Mafia (Later called Silenziatore Family)
Street Names/Nicknames: Silencers, Colorless Mafia, Colorless Mob, Silenziatores, Mietitrices, Reapers. Races: Particularly open to all depending on the sect. Otherwise, is dominantly human with Loptyr, and Feliceae slaves, and Canisrir mercenaries. How long it existed: A century and a half. Crimes committed: Dependant on the sect, although anywhere from dominantly arms trafficking, to personnel trafficking, murder, bootlegging, fraud, larceny and money laundering. Businesses in focus now: Arms trafficking, assassination, bootlegging, money laundering. Sworn Enemies: Ivory Agency, Opal Bureau, Law Enforcement, rival crime families. Has a strong distaste for street gangs with nearly all members Hopeful Allies: Little to none, although they do openly look for business partners. Motivation/Goal: Profit. Can splinters of this group exist?: Yes
Bio: Led initially by the ruthless crimelord Lanston Mietitrice, the Silenziatore family was dominantly the main feared Mafia force in Fiumerio up until his death. The capos ruled over their soldatos with an iron fist. Associates were sometimes screwed over and then terminated. Consiglieres often put bounty hits on those who had crossed the family. Lanston had came to Fiumerio initially to sell a genius creation from his homeland, wine. Being an immigrant, however: He was not granted the same rights as a natural citizen was, despite being of the same human race. His dream shattered and his money thought to be wasted, Lanston had turned into an embittered man who eventually started to think things out. Working with other disenfranchised immigrants and recruiting some of Fiumerio's own population and of the surrounding areas, the family had quickly became enemies of the state as they found many ways to make things lucrative. This involved having inserted moles inside companies whilst Lanston had invested in a number of businesses to violate the long standing alcohol prohibition act. Those who got cold feet were forced to agree with what Lanston demanded, unless they were killed. The Silenziatores were once spread up all over the East Coast until later on in the collapse of the group with the death of multiple capos, some even without heirs. Power had schismed as a result.
Lanston led the Mafia up until his nineties, where he had passed the group onto his own grandson, Lambert. He left Lambert with his diary, allowing his grandson to share the same bitterness as fate dealt him. Lambert carried this bitterness soon after being given the diary, as rival mobsters had sought the opportunity to try and decapitate the hydra of the Silenziatores: by and gunning up the man in his stay at the hotel after an illness. They failed to realize that Lambert was the last surviving heir, but had gunned down Lambert's parents in belief that they had no children. Two consiglieres who were absent upon the scene had took it upon themselves to quickly train Lambert into combat and leading the mob, loyal to Lanston until their last breath. Lambert had thence forward involved personal close friends into the business, although had to gun down one for selling them out to local families. For the next five decades, all sorts of violence was the king of the streets in Fiumerio. Police had struggled a long time coming to contain the problem, and the average life expectancy of a Sheriff in the county and a Chief in the city was anywhere from a week to five years if he was lucky. Corruption fueled the politicians to call for legal passage on the mob's activities, freeing some men out of jail before trial could be held.
A few more decades forward, present day, the Silenziatores have came back as one of the major crime forces in the city. Having eradicated two families, and the rest of the rivals having vacated to other cities under protection of former Silenziatore groups or their own skin. And the gunrunning and liquor running had not been the only things to be under the market that the Silenziatore's have. But now, it's something far more grimmer than anyone had ever thought. Some businesses in town could be a front for any of these activities. And those once seen on the streets could go missing whilst uttering their own, silent screams. And now it's not just human men going out with business, women and even Canisrir mercenaries are present too. And it's rumored that those stolen away have been taught to fight, implying the organization has had a long-running dirty secret.
The "Red Lion" with his men. "What most men find as fearsome is something inexplicable that happens without explanation, so giving them the unexpected scare will make them less likely to fight as a normal man would."
??? "Red Lion" ???
Race: Stalker Feliceae Age: Anywhere from late twenties to mid thirties Occupation: Underboss of the Silenziatores Faction/Affiliation: Silenziatores Sworn Enemies: Whatever enemy the Don has. Has a strong distaste for slavery. Allies: The whole Silenziatore family. A thorough physical description: Red hair, orange slit-pupil eyes. Stands at a massive, muscular frame an an intimidating height of 6'4". Muscles show through his suit whilst having a far skin complexion. Possesses mutton chops as well as a full lower beard. Various light cut scars are over his face. Skills: Hand-to-hand combat (various styles), very high physical strength. Capability to wrestle, and knows many vicious takedown moves. Rasputinian endurance. Some decent amount of flexibility, but lesser than average for Feliceae. Strategical thinking and prediction. Faster than normal regeneration.
A nigh living legend with an unknown name. The Red Lion was a man who was born a slave and put into illegal fighting rings for the pleasure of his owner. What his owner didn't expect is that the harsh treatment he gave the Red Lion (Which included cutting his tail to a stump, and constant physical beatings) along with the opponents he had pit him up against had only made the man stronger, due to his fans. Soon enough, he turned into a profitable aspect. Despite being cheated out of his money (and even knowing it), the Red Lion instead had done the work from the overwhelming support of his fans. Eventually, his talents had been watched by Sylvester and his parents, along with Lambert, who had sought the Red Lion as a powerhouse prospect, but had never fully considered it after learning his species. His respect for the Red Lion had dwindled as a result, but he became Sylvester's favorite pit fighter. It's said the boy had came to the ring if he had some spare time just to bet on the Red Lion, which the Red Lion in turn rarely disappointed.
A decade after, it's known that the Red Lion has bought his freedom out with a staggering amount that reached to more than three hundred thousand of Fiumerio's currency. It was unknown whether or not he had received help, but he had stayed in the ring at the prime of his life. Usually taking down opponents with a single punch as his muscle mass had grown, and the sight of him being an opponent had even intimidated whoever was facing him to concede the match or never show up. Only few have outright died from the Red Lion's muscular prowess, which he sees as disappointing and guilty both. When in the ring, however - Metaphorical or no, he's not one to pull his punches. His fame and then straight earnings had even made his former owner jealous, which the man tried to coerce the Red Lion into a contact. The fighter, knowing better, had let the man off with a warning. The owner had two slaves shoot him with pistols in exchange for their freedom, only to be punched out the window of the second floor of the motel room. The owner was paralyzed from the waist down, while the Red Lion had run red of his own blood, picking out the bullets and welcoming the slaves to his home (whom were too flabbergasted to see their high and powerful owner had been laid out with just one blow.), and said that it's a place to stay for now.
The bullet wounds had mended themselves without medical care. And most of the muscle that had caught it was then better during a one month leave. This event had caughof at the Silenziatore's attention. And when the Red Lion had used his winnings to buy the freedom of those who once were born like him, he had a sizable group of associates which had worked at his own establishment. He still arrives to the fighting rings at this date to earn money on the side. While his establishment became a reputable restaurant, ran by him and the former slaves of multiple people. His only ideal now is to have a future where his kind is fully free from the jaws of slavery and tyranny, and to educate those of a brighter, accepting future. And upon noticing his selfmade future, Lambert had finally conceded and allowed him inside of the Silenziatore at Sylvester's insistence. Eventually, the Red Lion was made a psuedo-Underboss as his front was used at night as a storeroom. And his reputation made him the least to expect out of anyone.
"First post! Also, does teh description have to be written, or can it be a picture? Or could it be a picture as the base with descriptice writings about mods, extras and so on?"
I prefer a written description and a picture. Although a reference that openly explains the character can bar this. This helps us ascertain what the character looks like in our head, and if there's a physical difference from the ref to the description: We will spot it.
I may've only gotten one reply from the Interest Check, although I have been told outside of that interest check (https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/163979-mafia-sort-of-rp-adult-themes-included/ooc#post-4321782) to just make the Forum Topic. As a fair warning, know what you're getting into with this RP (As adult themes are present): It's rather dark and gritty. As a result, it's meant for mature audiences. We may just move the RP off of the Forums because of the themes that would be included. Therefore this is only a sign-up page in retrospect, safe for things that can be posted without the little issue. Please bear this in mind if you choose to participate or not (and end up gazing upon the pages). Also, when you do sign up, bear in mind we might just end up having to RP on the Discord/Private Convo regardless of the circumstance.
Some portions may be incomplete or subject to change!
First things first, character death will happen: But only if the RPer of the victim accepts it (unless of course, the odds seem so highly stacked against them, which surrendering is an option.).
Being in a Mafia family/crime gang/police or whatever isn't required. Your character can be a bystander or normal citizen.
If you think you can handle it, you can create multiple characters. Don't overstep your boundaries, however.
Any personal disputes are to be brought to the GM (Me), or Co-GMs.
Harassment of any kind within the group will not be tolerated. No exceptions.
Do not force relationships/ERP without the other player's consent. ERP is to be put into DMs or Discord or whatever else, just not in public here. We have standards.
These rules can be subject to change until the finalization towards if this RP gains enough interest. Rules can also be changed via petition.
Your weapons, vehicles, and outfit may depend on what sort of "rank" or financial standing/class your character has.
If something is rare to see, don't go off making a faction full of them. Also, take some extreme thought if you're making a Draconian (See races section)
The death of the mayor of the metropolitan area had sewn seeds of chaos within and without. Back then, crime was at somewhat of a relative low safe for the underground. Family names were an urban legend that was ultimately true, as the people hadn't noticed their existence. But without the mayor to rule for a few days, those families had risen in force. Gangs committed their crimes unchecked as surges of membership enlistment had spread throughout. Leaders and their families or gangs had risen from urban legend to living legends in course of a night. Many people being held victim to deaths ordered by the dons, gang kingpins, and simple thugs alike. The police had responded by militarization and informants within the ranks of all but the most well known families, which had usually sniffed out and snuffed out the rats. The Silenziatore family (Otherwise more commonly known as the Colorless Mafia, or Mietitrice as the actual head families name) had risen up in a recent fervor, despite the recent death of Lambard Mietitrice (of natural causes). He is succeeded by his grandson in turn, Sylvester Lanston Silenziatore. Sylvester, as of turn, took the Mafia family name than his biological family's name, in defiance to his grandfather.
The Silenziatore family used to run major gambling operations. Although their major, more vile crimes included slavery and trafficking of the subhuman races. This ran from simple kidnapping and extortion, to sex slavery and brainwashing. Sylvester condemned the practices of such acts, and kept to being a hitman and enforcer within the Silenziatores up until his grandfather's death. Those who wanted to keep into the business often broke off, some being killed by Silenziatore associates or made men the next day, often found with rather large holes inside of their chest cavity or cranium. It's since around then that the Colorless Mafia had since then laid low within the city, somewhat dormant, implying that business is good. It's with the recent dismissal of the viler crimes that has lead in some instances, for the law enforcement to go on the Silenziatores a bit more softer. Of course, this doesn't mean that they'd get away with murder if seen or proven. Most of them tend to be in restaurants used in fronts, or lavish business centers which serve as a head of operations downtown. Of course, this keeps them from sending any illicit goods (be it illegally sold alcohol, tobacco, or gunrunning) to overextending their reach easily.
People into the prospect of subhuman trafficking usually get top dollar for attractive, mature and obedient women. And sometimes even men as well. Lagotyr and Feliceae are often prime targets of kidnappings and sex slavery within the city. Most captured are usually bred (oft against their will) until the fighting and defiance is put out of them. This meant that sometimes, entire families were put under prospect of this vile trade. Some of the born are unaware and of course, educated and manipulated into thinking the idea itself was something as natural as life. The more exotic the subhuman, the higher the price is to the top bidder. To make matters worse is that prejudice against non-human species are rather common, so this sort of situation is often overlooked. The Silenziatores (at least Sylvester's supporters which includes most of the family now) openly condemn the trade, and would sabotage most attempts of the deals and pens should they learn about them.
The Silenziatore family is regarded as the most well-known Mafia family aside to other unspoken names (decided by you, the RPers if it has the chance). Although Street Gangs and other organizations have also been into a sort of rise too. Including one led by a man named Jin. Jin's family owns the largest industrial factory in the metropolitan area, and it's used as a front for gunrunning and illicit supplies. The other factories are in collaboration for the legal part of the work, although in reality the leaders are appointed higher-ups by Jin himself. The police so far haven't been able to find links between Jin's legal work, and illegal work. As he launders the money through logbooks of the actual factory.
Of course, the metropolitan area is filled with more than just big names and groups. It could include smaller names and groups that have yet to become big..

-REDACTED
The Colorless Mafia, otherwise known as the Silenziatores (Formerly known as the Meititrice Crime Family); is one of the oldest families to be present within the city of Fiumerio. The mafia is now split up into separate sects as part of Sylvester's own jurisdiction and prohibition upon the slavery trade. What's considered part of Sylvester/Sylver's portion of the Silenziatores is focused downtown. With some splinters/rogues operating throughout town.

More than just humans roam the city. Although the "Sub Humans" often face prejudice with who they are...half-human and half-others are normally considered abominations by some.
Humans - Commonly known as the dominant race, Homo Sapiens, or commonly regarded as the Humans, are a widespread species that have so many cultures to count, and with the recent change of history, this might've caused a schism in how humans are, not only in race, but potentially splitting the group of what they are into multiple "splinters", potentially these "splinters" could be something other than human, but act so much alike, and not only that, have the same sort of organs and blood as humans, that they could never really be called anything else. Humans are what started the civilization of the world, whether or not with help of the other races present on the world, it's always stood that any civilization had initially been started by the humans, but for better or worse, is always a question. As Humans even fight amongst themselves.
Lagotyr - More so recognized as 'rabbit people', Lagotyr possess incredible hearing, making them excellent scouts, although not so much trackers. Aside to that, they're known to perform better feats of acrobatics compared to human capability, although aren't considered as strong, safe for their legs.. Lagotyr have two variants, that of the Sun, and that of the Shadow, both variants do nothing to impact alignment or faction, but impacts more so appearance.
Sun Lagotyr possess a slightly younger appearance compared to their Shadow/Moon cousins. Sun Lagotyr possess a more youthful appearance, even when in their twenties to thirties, and, consequentially, look a bit more like children. Aside to that, they're rather light-hearted and trickster like in nature, pulling pranks and setting small, usually harmless traps on travelers, although there have been cases of some malicious work in the form of harmful traps, done by Sun Lagotyr as well. These Lagotyr are more active during the day, as they are compared to the night, and normally function like normal humans do in terms of active awake time. Sun Lagotyr usually have bright-colored, natural fur, that also goes with their hair, although as with any race, there are accounts of this fur and hair being dyed.
Sometimes referred to as Moon Lagotyr, Shadow Lagotyr are more so named for being the more matured variants of Lagotyr, and due to their nocturnal behavior, likely have an impact on the nightlife of the cities. Shadow Lagotyr are slightly serious compared to those of the sun, but can be fairly charismatic and skilled at cajoling and flattery compared to their brethren. They shown signs of maturity upon age fifteen. Although never enter nightlife until age twenty. They avoid raves due to their sensitive ears, however, but this is of a usual thought. Shadow Lagotyr are often distinguished from Sun Lagotyr via having natural fur/hair color that would be unnatural compared to their Sun cousins. Shadow Lagotyr tend to best deal as informants, magic users, and above all, due to their natural charisma, spies.
Canisrir/Fenrisrir - Sometimes called the 'Wolven', Canisrir are dog/wolf people, depending on what they are, they could be a tribe, or a civilized group, although regardless, they are always mostly known for their loyalty and intelligence. Canisrir come in a bit of a multitude of different cultures, some are lifelong protectors. Others could even be cunning and a little bit traitorous. Regardless, if you're sure a Canisrir is on your side, and he or she makes it clear, you'll be glad that he or she is. The Tengu are of their own faction. LaughingEdit
The Laughing Canisrir, often found in harsh desert landscapes are a form of Canisrir that are often found within tribes, which use different types of laughing to communicate with the rest of their group. They are often found in shades of brown, as well as black spots, although there are rumors that some are seen in coats of black or grey, roaming about ancient temples and burial sites. The black and grey are also grouped into the section, as they're also thought to be Laughing Canisrir. A Laughing Canisrir however, is not to be considered unintelligent due to their tribal upbringing, as they still have made articles of power and weapons of their own that have yet to be discovered still, and that it's best to not have a angry tribe after you for something stupid you've done.
Pack Canisrir are often associated with a large family.. they often work in tandem, to near hivemind states. A group of Pack Canisrir has a sort of mutual understanding of each member, and can make coordinated takedowns and thoughts. This also leads to diplomacy being rather easy (but not always) between them. They respect leadership, and the leader usually has a whole group of them at his beck and call. Pack Canisrir are often too attentive to anything, however. Some might be distracted even in the heat of battle, too. They appear more feral than the Prowlers and Laughing Canisrir both, usually using savage tactics on occasion when it comes to close combat.
Prowler Canisrir are commonly mistaken for (and called) Kitsunes, although all they have is one tail.. Prowlers aside to their Guard cousins (which would be comparable to dog people that have traits of domestic dogs) are commonly encountered in everyday life and in the city, usually serving as a fitting job of either criminals (for the Prowlers), and, true to their name, security guards. Aside to that, like their Pack cousins, Prowlers and Guards make for excellent soldiers and trackers. Guards are also occasion, pets of humans.
Feliceae - The Feliceae are a race of Cat-like humanoids, it's commonly thought that the Feliceae won't get along with the Canisrir, although there are accounts of the two getting along on the occasion. They are commonly known for aside to having greater sight during nightime, for having slit pupils for their eyes, as well as great reflexes and aerodynamic behavior. They make for excellent hunters on their own, compared to the Canisrir, who often use pack tactics.
Big Cat variants of the Feliceae, Stalkers are well renowned for their (usual) natural talent of stealth, and have a penchant for sneaking up on people whether for predatory reasons or play. This in turn makes them excellent assassins or scouts, but it also makes them seem like a ghost within the party, you feel as someone's there, but you're not quite sure. The Stalker subline of this race is well renowned for also, hunting instincts. While not excellent trackers persay, they make up for ferocity and a tracked mind that keeps ticking and thinking, instead. Watch your back when within the plains or the jungle, you never know if a Stalker with a more feral mind could be right behind you, wishing for a bit of a meal.
Often recognized as companions, these are generally regarded as pets for humans, though whether or not the human treats them as another person or just a pet. Regardless, the House variant of Feliceae has proven, much like the Guard Canisrir, to be part of everyday life, sometimes as their own being part of the workforce. Aside to that, house Feliceae are efficient at keeping pests out of the house, no matter what kind of pest it would be. Although this brings a danger to venomous insects, snakes, and other beings, which could sicken or endanger the House Feliceae. Sadly, as with any pet-like being, the House Feliceae could possibly be sold, as with anyone, into slavery, as well as the blurred line between 'pet' and 'slave'.
Miscellaneous, rarer forms of people have been spotted..such as highly super rare dragon-like Draconians. Or the technological Synthetic androids, and Mechforged.

So. Aside to watching Baccano!, and keeping this sort of RP idea under wraps until the summer. I was finally pressured by numerous people (whom won't be named) to put this idea out. I'll only put down the basic plot and species in turn. The setting takes place in a sort of psuedo-modern state. Whereas automobiles, weapons, and functionality are sort of dominantly akin to the times of the Roaring Twenties and the Prohibition Era (with the richest having more modern weapons). That aside to the rules, I can't really do things about with a lack of that.
Fair warning, this RP is a bit dark and gritty.
First things first, character death will happen: But only if the RPer of the victim accepts it (unless of course, the odds seem so highly stacked against them, which surrendering is an option.).
Being in a Mafia family/crime gang/police or whatever isn't required. Your character can be a bystander or normal citizen.
If you think you can handle it, you can create multiple characters. Don't overstep your boundaries, however.
Any personal disputes are to be brought to the GM (Me), or Co-GMs.
Harassment of any kind within the group will not be tolerated. No exceptions.
Do not force relationships/ERP without the other player's consent.
These rules can be subject to change until the finalization towards if this RP gains enough interest. Rules can also be changed via petition.
Your weapons, vehicles, and outfit may depend on what sort of "rank" or financial standing/class your character has.
If something is rare to see, don't go off making a faction full of them. Also, take some extreme thought if you're making a Draconian (See races section)
The death of the mayor of the metropolitan area had sewn seeds of chaos within and without. Back then, crime was at somewhat of a relative low safe for the underground. Family names were an urban legend that was ultimately true, as the people hadn't noticed their existence. But without the mayor to rule for a few days, those families had risen in force. Gangs committed their crimes unchecked as surges of membership enlistment had spread throughout. Leaders and their families or gangs had risen from urban legend to living legends in course of a night. Many people being held victim to deaths ordered by the dons, gang kingpins, and simple thugs alike. The police had responded by militarization and informants within the ranks of all but the most well known families, which had usually sniffed out and snuffed out the rats. The Silenziatore family (Otherwise more commonly known as the Colorless Mafia, or Mietitrice as the actual head families name) had risen up in a recent fervor, despite the recent death of Lambard Mietitrice (of natural causes). He is succeeded by his grandson in turn, Sylvester Lanston Silenziatore. Sylvester, as of turn, took the Mafia family name than his biological family's name, in defiance to his grandfather.
The Silenziatore family used to run major gambling operations. Although their major, more vile crimes included slavery and trafficking of the subhuman races. This ran from simple kidnapping and extortion, to sex slavery and brainwashing. Sylvester condemned the practices of such acts, and kept to being a hitman and enforcer within the Silenziatores up until his grandfather's death. Those who wanted to keep into the business often broke off, some being killed by Silenziatore associates or made men the next day, often found with rather large holes inside of their chest cavity or cranium. It's since around then that the Colorless Mafia had since then laid low within the city, somewhat dormant, implying that business is good. It's with the recent dismissal of the viler crimes that has lead in some instances, for the law enforcement to go on the Silenziatores a bit more softer. Of course, this doesn't mean that they'd get away with murder if seen or proven. Most of them tend to be in restaurants used in fronts, or lavish business centers which serve as a head of operations downtown. Of course, this keeps them from sending any illicit goods (be it illegally sold alcohol, tobacco, or gunrunning) to overextending their reach easily.
People into the prospect of subhuman trafficking usually get top dollar for attractive, mature and obedient women. And sometimes even men as well. Lagotyr and Feliceae are often prime targets of kidnappings and sex slavery within the city. Most captured are usually bred (oft against their will) until the fighting and defiance is put out of them. This meant that sometimes, entire families were put under prospect of this vile trade. Some of the born are unaware and of course, educated and manipulated into thinking the idea itself was something as natural as life. The more exotic the subhuman, the higher the price is to the top bidder. To make matters worse is that prejudice against non-human species are rather common, so this sort of situation is often overlooked. The Silenziatores (at least Sylvester's supporters which includes most of the family now) openly condemn the trade, and would sabotage most attempts of the deals and pens should they learn about them.
The Silenziatore family is regarded as the most well-known Mafia family aside to other unspoken names (decided by you, the RPers if it has the chance). Although Street Gangs and other organizations have also been into a sort of rise too. Including one led by a man named Jin. Jin's family owns the largest industrial factory in the metropolitan area, and it's used as a front for gunrunning and illicit supplies. The other factories are in collaboration for the legal part of the work, although in reality the leaders are appointed higher-ups by Jin himself. The police so far haven't been able to find links between Jin's legal work, and illegal work. As he launders the money through logbooks of the actual factory.
Of course, the metropolitan area is filled with more than just big names and groups. It could include smaller names and groups that have yet to become big..
More than just humans roam the city. Although the "Sub Humans" often face prejudice with who they are...half-human and half-others are normally considered abominations by some.
Humans - Commonly known as the dominant race, Homo Sapiens, or commonly regarded as the Humans, are a widespread species that have so many cultures to count, and with the recent change of history, this might've caused a schism in how humans are, not only in race, but potentially splitting the group of what they are into multiple "splinters", potentially these "splinters" could be something other than human, but act so much alike, and not only that, have the same sort of organs and blood as humans, that they could never really be called anything else. Humans are what started the civilization of the world, whether or not with help of the other races present on the world, it's always stood that any civilization had initially been started by the humans, but for better or worse, is always a question. As Humans even fight amongst themselves.
Lagotyr - More so recognized as 'rabbit people', Lagotyr possess incredible hearing, making them excellent scouts, although not so much trackers. Aside to that, they're known to perform better feats of acrobatics compared to human capability, although aren't considered as strong, safe for their legs.. Lagotyr have two variants, that of the Sun, and that of the Shadow, both variants do nothing to impact alignment or faction, but impacts more so appearance.
Sun Lagotyr possess a slightly younger appearance compared to their Shadow/Moon cousins. Sun Lagotyr possess a more youthful appearance, even when in their twenties to thirties, and, consequentially, look a bit more like children. Aside to that, they're rather light-hearted and trickster like in nature, pulling pranks and setting small, usually harmless traps on travelers, although there have been cases of some malicious work in the form of harmful traps, done by Sun Lagotyr as well. These Lagotyr are more active during the day, as they are compared to the night, and normally function like normal humans do in terms of active awake time. Sun Lagotyr usually have bright-colored, natural fur, that also goes with their hair, although as with any race, there are accounts of this fur and hair being dyed.
Sometimes referred to as Moon Lagotyr, Shadow Lagotyr are more so named for being the more matured variants of Lagotyr, and due to their nocturnal behavior, likely have an impact on the nightlife of the cities. Shadow Lagotyr are slightly serious compared to those of the sun, but can be fairly charismatic and skilled at cajoling and flattery compared to their brethren. They shown signs of maturity upon age fifteen. Although never enter nightlife until age twenty. They avoid raves due to their sensitive ears, however, but this is of a usual thought. Shadow Lagotyr are often distinguished from Sun Lagotyr via having natural fur/hair color that would be unnatural compared to their Sun cousins. Shadow Lagotyr tend to best deal as informants, magic users, and above all, due to their natural charisma, spies.
Canisrir/Fenrisrir - Sometimes called the 'Wolven', Canisrir are dog/wolf people, depending on what they are, they could be a tribe, or a civilized group, although regardless, they are always mostly known for their loyalty and intelligence. Canisrir come in a bit of a multitude of different cultures, some are lifelong protectors. Others could even be cunning and a little bit traitorous. Regardless, if you're sure a Canisrir is on your side, and he or she makes it clear, you'll be glad that he or she is. The Tengu are of their own faction. LaughingEdit
The Laughing Canisrir, often found in harsh desert landscapes are a form of Canisrir that are often found within tribes, which use different types of laughing to communicate with the rest of their group. They are often found in shades of brown, as well as black spots, although there are rumors that some are seen in coats of black or grey, roaming about ancient temples and burial sites. The black and grey are also grouped into the section, as they're also thought to be Laughing Canisrir. A Laughing Canisrir however, is not to be considered unintelligent due to their tribal upbringing, as they still have made articles of power and weapons of their own that have yet to be discovered still, and that it's best to not have a angry tribe after you for something stupid you've done.
Pack Canisrir are often associated with a large family.. they often work in tandem, to near hivemind states. A group of Pack Canisrir has a sort of mutual understanding of each member, and can make coordinated takedowns and thoughts. This also leads to diplomacy being rather easy (but not always) between them. They respect leadership, and the leader usually has a whole group of them at his beck and call. Pack Canisrir are often too attentive to anything, however. Some might be distracted even in the heat of battle, too. They appear more feral than the Prowlers and Laughing Canisrir both, usually using savage tactics on occasion when it comes to close combat.
Prowler Canisrir are commonly mistaken for (and called) Kitsunes, although all they have is one tail.. Prowlers aside to their Guard cousins (which would be comparable to dog people that have traits of domestic dogs) are commonly encountered in everyday life and in the city, usually serving as a fitting job of either criminals (for the Prowlers), and, true to their name, security guards. Aside to that, like their Pack cousins, Prowlers and Guards make for excellent soldiers and trackers. Guards are also occasion, pets of humans.
Feliceae - The Feliceae are a race of Cat-like humanoids, it's commonly thought that the Feliceae won't get along with the Canisrir, although there are accounts of the two getting along on the occasion. They are commonly known for aside to having greater sight during nightime, for having slit pupils for their eyes, as well as great reflexes and aerodynamic behavior. They make for excellent hunters on their own, compared to the Canisrir, who often use pack tactics.
Big Cat variants of the Feliceae, Stalkers are well renowned for their (usual) natural talent of stealth, and have a penchant for sneaking up on people whether for predatory reasons or play. This in turn makes them excellent assassins or scouts, but it also makes them seem like a ghost within the party, you feel as someone's there, but you're not quite sure. The Stalker subline of this race is well renowned for also, hunting instincts. While not excellent trackers persay, they make up for ferocity and a tracked mind that keeps ticking and thinking, instead. Watch your back when within the plains or the jungle, you never know if a Stalker with a more feral mind could be right behind you, wishing for a bit of a meal.
Often recognized as companions, these are generally regarded as pets for humans, though whether or not the human treats them as another person or just a pet. Regardless, the House variant of Feliceae has proven, much like the Guard Canisrir, to be part of everyday life, sometimes as their own being part of the workforce. Aside to that, house Feliceae are efficient at keeping pests out of the house, no matter what kind of pest it would be. Although this brings a danger to venomous insects, snakes, and other beings, which could sicken or endanger the House Feliceae. Sadly, as with any pet-like being, the House Feliceae could possibly be sold, as with anyone, into slavery, as well as the blurred line between 'pet' and 'slave'.
Miscellaneous, rarer forms of people have been spotted..such as highly super rare dragon-like Draconians. Or the technological Synthetic androids, and Mechforged.
I'm not sure if I am really good at a game, or if I'm not even trying. Half the time it's like I don't even tap into my best potential.
Tonight is the day before work, which I'm preparing to get complaints from my boss to leave something in a team of coworkers' hands in the case of something that they haven't learned to do. My coworkers in the back were still working, and I had already finished most of my plate, and they were using the exact thing that I needed to clean, and the one working on said thing decided to have 10-20 minute chat sessions with a few patrons. And I wasn't going to stick around for another half hour or forty minutes with my thumb up my ass doing nothing, since I'd be playing that coworker's game.
Other thing said coworker does is; Call me names in his own language, thinking I won't understand him. Self delusion of grandeur. Vandalized one of my posters encouraging my coworkers to stay on task, the other coworkers took the poster well, but not the vandalized part.
Paying tuition for college hopefully next Monday. If it doesn't happen, then I'll try Spring. While working my normal schedule for six more months.
Everyone's failing to realize I'm an introvert, and are getting in the way of my dayoffs.
Next week my dayoffs will only really exist to be Friday.
Why you ask? Starting college, already getting dem nightmares of having a late assignment already, and the requirements there are that I need to complete 67% or more of my classes, and score above a 2.0 GPA
