op2024Name: Titus Tafani
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Date of Birth: 29 February 1916
Job: Soldier of the Bonnano crime family
Appearance:
Titus is on the short and slight side; his hair and eyes are both dark, and his high cheekbones give him a gaunt, hungry look. Despite his less than impressive stature, he usually carries himself with a confident swagger. His typical outfit is a cheaply made but well-tailed brown plaid suit, which hides his Colt Cobra .38 and a large knife.
Personality:
Outwardly, Titus is an extremely outgoing type, glad-handing everyone he meets. He's often found in the middle of a crowd of people, spreading gossip and asking questions and exchanging favors, always with an eye towards opportunity. Despite often making out like a bandit, he has a reputation for generosity.
Inwardly, Titus is a fairly lonely soul. He has no living family, and though he knows many people by name, he lives alone and rarely drinks with the same person two nights in a row. He sees other people mostly as tools for his own advantage, while at the same time constantly seeking out their company.
Strengths:
- Well-connected in NYC; is a made man of one of the Six Families and has many contacts throughout the city
- Fast talker; good at selling people a bad deal
- Experienced pickpocket/minor thief
Abilities:
- Surprisingly good in a knife fight
- Fast and spry
Backstory:
Titus was born in the Bronx, in 1916; his parents had immigrated only a year before from Sicily, fleeing the oncoming war. His father was a dock worker; his mother took care of him, while also doing other small jobs for their neighbors in order to help put food on the table. As young as five, Titus was enlisted to help, and began working a series of odd jobs--newspaper boy, messenger, waiter, and so on. He learned early on that he had a knack for people, and inevitably started putting that to use fleecing them for their money.
At the age of 14, he had his first encounter with what was still known then as the Marazano crime family when he tried to take the wallet of one of their soldiers. Luckily for him, the man was more impressed than angry, and promised to forgive Titus if he did some work for him. Titus took to being a mob runner like a duck to water, but his parents didn't approve.
Forced to choose between the approval of his parents and his newfound line of work, Titus left home and took up residence in a boarding house.
He spent the next fifteen years working his way up the ranks--selling numbers, convincing local shopkeepers to pay protection fees, running shakedowns, and so on. At some point he became a made man of what had since become to Bonnano family, and has spent his time since thriving in the cracks of New York City.
