"The Murderer's Guild"
1721, Vatican City, Rome.
Ever had a dream so elaborate, so amazing, you wished it was real?
Leo D'Arcangelo did.
As a high class thief and "classically" trained assassin, Leo lived a life few dreamt of.
He killed, he lusted, he won, he became.
Years of practice, refinement, and money hardened him.
He soon grew bored and looked for something new.
This "something new" came to him in the form of a weary noblemen, who was in need of a personal assassin.
While deals such as this rarely surface, Leo's made headlines. The target, a wealthy merchant who happened to be under the queen's personal care, was poisoned with an untraceable liquid that was, of course, never traced. Nor was it ever linked to the nobleman or Leo.
Like all noblemen, Marvin, the one who hired Leo, had an overly sized mouth. He was soon blabbing about the wonderful skills of his own personal "garbage boy".
The other noblemen, being greedy and childish, wanted their own "Leo's".
Leo's solution? Form a guild. A group of highly skilled, vigilant assassins to do the noblemen's bidding.
Now, Leo has already gathered four other assassins, but they've encountered some problems. Competing hitmen, assassins, and bounty hunters are always looking for ways to take them down.
They must find safe, clean, usable places to sleep every month or two because they must move, and they have to keep a low profile, their faces never remembered, their deeds always forgotten.
Every assassin within the guild had their own area of expertise, making them useful... Everywhere.
Leo is the only one who can "play" all the parts: actor, thief, killer, negotiator.
He's what most would label as... "The Master Mind, The Man-With-The-Plan." Around the group, he's just known as "The Leader"
Every assassin [you will have to post applications for them and such] will have their own pasts which can interfere... Long lost lover? Yeah, you can have one. Think ancient times.
The roleplay will follow them through their jobs, personal relationships, problems, failures, etc.
I will need:
At least four assassins, if not more.
A very wealthy, influential, scandalous nobleman or woman.
Someone to play the clients... This can be more than one or just one person. [You'll receive the name and problem of the client via P.M. and then you will just write it out. If no one does this, I will!]
Extras: Old friends who are not Assassins, BE CREATIVE[/b]
I'll be posting Leo and Isabella's [Isabella being Leo's long-time friend and recent partner.] later. :) If you have any questions, just ask!
