Therius City, 2043. The very definition of corrupt. All the officials are paid under the table for favors, businesses have secret crime rackets. Only two crime families remain in the area, the Marinottis and the Mecaccis. This roleplay details the war between the two families, and will determine who rises to the top and who "swims with the fishes". There is a twist though: these crime families use magic as well as weapons.

Ranks:

Capo Crimini: The leader of a crime family, the highest rank. (I think this is synonymous with a Don, but I don't know) (Allowed 3 spells)
Consigliere: Family counselor, someone who gives advice to the Capo Crimini (Allowed 3 spells)
Capo Bastone: An underboss. (2 spells)
Caporegime: A Lieutenant of sorts, commands a "crew" of 10 or more, usually. (2 spells)
Sgarrista: A soldier also known as a Made Man. (1 spell)
Piciotto: Lower soldiers. (1 spell)

Remember, this roleplay may or may not be accurate in terms of the ranks, I did as much research as I could.

Characters:
Make up your own characters, but ranks are first come first serve.

Maximum number for the ranks (Remember that these are doubled because there are two crime families. I also lowered the amount of soldiers so there won't be so many people):
Capo Crimini: 2
Consigliere: 2
Capo Bastone: 2
Caporegime: 4
Sgarrista: 1 each Caporegime (4 total)
Piciotto: 2 each Caporegime (8 total)

Setting:

Therius City is like any other city in terms of what it has for services and shops and such. Except the fact that it's all corrupt. It is a rather large city with many skyscrapers and other buildings. Residents cower in fear when they see even the lowest soldiers of either crime family.


Have fun!
