You know what, I'm just gonna post the intro now.
A cold rain fell on the streets of New York, it was a foggy night and a car pulled into the driveway of a large house. Inside sat Jimmy Pravello, son of the Mafia don John Pravello, smoking a cigar and watching a game show on TV, 5 seconds later, the young man lied dead a bullet through his brain, and a someone stood with a smoking gun behind the leather chair. The assassin took out a cellphone:
"It's been done"
"One down, fifteen to go" said the voice on the other end "you've done well, meet me at the usual spot for your payment"
"Will do" Then the killer left the house comfortable in the knowledge that they had just started the biggest mafia takeover in the history of the families.
They got into their car and drove away, lighting up a cigarette for themselves.
They chuckled as they watched the police drive to the crime scene the double agent had just left.
He met his boss at the usual spot, under a bride in central park.
"Your sure you can do this on your own?" said the man from the phone call.
"Believe me boss, when I'm done with the Pravellos they won't ever run a racket again and you'll be the most powerful man in the city." Said the assassin as he he handed his employer a victory cigar.
And then as lit up the cigar , he laughed as he said "It has begun"
Not that many rules just a few.
1. No god moding
2. Do whatever you want ask capos for jobs, ask me for jobs, live out your day to day life, start a side story, I don't care.
3. No trenchcoating. Pretty much the same as god moding just being clear
4. All out of character talk can be either OOC: or spoilers either is fine, but if you know how to use spoiler boxes please do.
Name: John Pravello
Job:(In mafia, Capo, messenger, assassin, or freelancer) Don
Backround: He was made don of the Pravello family when his father died 10 years ago, at the time John was only 35, making one of the youngest dons in history, that said he still fairly young for a don and some of the members of the family think that they should have gotten his position. He knows they are bitter and doesn't care because he knows that he does a good job, but with the recent assassination of his son he is very paranoid and unsure of himself.
Personality: He will do anything to protect or avenge his family and crush anyone that gets in his way.

You can either be a member of the Pravello Family or you can work for them, hell make me a police bio and if I approve it I might let you play the other side.

No need to PM me your bio just post it here. First come first served, also this is my first time DM'ing here so feedback is greatly appreciated, also this is a slighty diffrent RP instead of a killer there is a rat, he will either kill or send you to jail

Every day or two there is a killing, then all of you vote on which player you think the killer is please bold your votes. The player with the most votes is killed, if you guess the killer right you win if the murderer kills you all they win.

Been waiting for this for awhile. The Cyberpunk one is over now so I don't see a problem with this one going. I didn't get a chance to get involved in the Cyberpunk RP but I wanted to so this gives me a chance to do something similar.

By the way do you still have my character...I want to use the same one but I don't think I saved it.

Well this seems to be becoming a dud, maybe you should change the name to taking characters so that people don't think it is just the poll.

Name: 'Birras'
Job:Assassin
Backround: Birras is an assassin. He was once a freelance hitman for hire, but after all the jobs he's done for the Pravello family, both he and several members of the Pravellos think of Birras as the Don's private assassin. However, Birras is only the name he goes by to his clients. Nobody, not even the Don, knows his true name.Personality: Will do all he can to ensure the completion of a contract. Enjoys sarcasm.

Name: Silvio Auditore

Job: Capo

Backround: Silvio was brought up in a relatively well off environment. He did not turn to criminal activities through necessity. He grew tired of his average daily routine and sought out to join a mafia. Pravello was the one which adopted him, and he quickly made himself known. He did some small time jobs, before being ordered to kill one of his friends, who had found out about his involvements and threatened to tell the police. He went to his friend's appartment before ringing the bell and shooting him in the shoulder. He sat with him talking for the long thirty minutes or so before he bled out and died. After this he was promoted to Made status. He carreid on in his rather illustrious carreer and became ever more known and respected. When he was ordered to kill a previous capo for deviation he slotted into his position nicely, where he has been ever since with a regime of ten men.

Personality: Finds it fun: Some say that Silvio takes a little too much joy in what he does, and speculate he may be psychologically unstable. He has a very disturbed sense of humour and a short temper. He carries a gun as almost required, but prefers to use a knife when he can. It is also speculated that killing his friend has left marks on this man invisible to the human eye.

Ill post a Bio, as this seems like it could do well.
Name: Angus McCormack

Job: Law Enforcement

Background: Angus's family have always been in law enforcement, ever since they emmigrated to America from Scotland. Angus was raised by his father mainly, as his parents divorced 2 years after he was born. When he joined law enforcement, his father was so proud, and Angus quickly went up the ladder to become more seniour. He is now a detective, but four years ago, when the force did a purge of corrupt officers, he had discovered something terrible. When he had aided the investigation, he discovered that his father had been taking kick-backs from the Pravello family. When he confronted his father, he said it had been for his own good, they would have been living in poverty had it not been for that money. Disgusted, Angus turned him in, and was forced to personally arrest his father. he has never had to do anything so difficult in his carreer again. He harbours a dislike for the Pravello family, because he feels they tempted his father, and he snatches any case he can concerning them.

Personality: Very untrusting. After finding out his father was corrupt, Angus finds it very hard to trust anyone. Never the less, he enjoys his work, and is normally upbeat, except when dealing with cases that bring back memories of his father.
You said police might be Okay, so can I use this guy?

Ok I never RP'd before but this one caught my attention, and seeing as its a lyncher and not too linear looking hopefully I'll be able to keep up with it.

Name: Armitage Shanks

Job: Detective (Vice Squad)

Background: Armitage Shanks is on Don Pravello's payroll. Not that he knows the Don well, he's only met the man a few times in person. As is needed he for someone in his position he operates through middle men. The Pravello family like Shanks, he can lend legitimacy to a hit.

It started when they took out two small time racketeers who were in over their heads. Shanks was first on the scene and caught the Don's men trying to cover it up. The quick thinking Capo offered the young detective what would become a long lasting business opportunity. When the other investigators arrived they agreed with Shanks' assessment of the two corpses: deal gone bad, murder suicide.
That was the first time, at least 4 years ago now. Shanks helps the family out anyway he can, in return he gets the occasional envelope slipped to him and lies safe in the knowledge that the Don is a responsible man, and he has learned that, like him or not he keeps the streets under control. If anything were to happen to weaken the Pravello family's hold on the city then every two bit wannabe crim would be running rampant.

Has almost come to blows with Angus McCormack in the corridors of the station at least once. McCormack has reviewed Shanks' case files and suspects something, but the detective is too meticulous to have left any evidence connecting him to the Pravello Family lying around, at least up until now...
Personality: Detective Shanks would never describe himself as corrupt. Hell, he's seen corruption. Corruption is when a mans greed take his actions out of control. Corruption is when a man loses track of his ideals. Corruption eventually gets you sprung and dragged off to prison, the same as the all the scum you've sent there.
No, Shanks isn't corrupt, he just operates in the grey. Too many of his colleagues don't understand the grey. They don't understand it so they fear it. Mistaking the grey for the black means you can never operate in it, and how can you fight the darkness if you don't stand in the shadow? Detective Shanks lives in the shadow, because the end will always justify the means.

Appearance: Close cut dark brown wavy hair, slicked back but almost always hidden under a fedora. Square shouldered and about 6'1'' usually attempts to maintain a clean shaven look. Dresses in suit and trenchcoat.

Is that all good? I thought it would be cool to be a dirty cop, and if its okay with you Bling Cat it would make for some cool disagreements and rough encounters between our characters. If you want I could edit some stuff about it into my background.

EDIT: Just updated to add the beginning of a backstory with Bling's character and a physica description.

Alright so we have: Shanks, Tsurugi, Bling Cat, Dinnj and Birras, 2-4 more people and we'll be set
Tsurugi I'll post you Bio soon.

EDIT: Okay here's Tsurugi's bio from the first time I tried to do this

Name: Tsurugi
Job: Freelance
Background: A young man who came to the city looking for work as a mobster. He heard about the mafia family known as the Pravello Family. After completing high school he left his home town and his family behind to set out to this city. Before he was a regular kid in a good neighbourhood but always had fantasized about being in the mafia. He got into a lot of trouble in high school because of this fascination so as soon as he got the chance, when he graduated, he left. He was in to guns and violence.
Personality: A happy man who likes company. He is kind to people as long as they are on his good side but he has a quick temper and it would be a bad idea to get on his bad side.

Also this is set in like modern times isn't it?
Awesome. Pure Awesome. I seriously considered a bent Cop. But this should play out really well, with our characters playing off each other REALLY well.

Agreed. Shanks that character bio is amazing.

[Edit]

1930s-1940s. Definately. Mafia is 1920s to 1940s by definition. Any other time frame outside of that just wouldn't fit in my books...
