Lately, two of the most influential families have been rather cross with each other. Stepped on toes here, a hit on someone there. Rumor has it that a mob war is about to go down, and the city is right in the middle of it.

Angelico Family
Vito Angelico is an ambitious man taking over for his recently deceased uncle. Out for revenge on the dirty bastards that killed him, Vito and his gang of men are ruthless about getting what they want. Their legit business is running a chain of nightclubs in the city. Otherwise they smuggle in weapons. Most of their family is not blood related, but they are one of the oldest organizations in the city.

Malfatorre Family
Theodore “Pops” Malfatorre by now is a very old man, but back in his day he was quite the lady-killer. Literally. It’s rumored that 3 of his 7 wives were killed because of “personal betrayals” but no crime was ever proven. His 9 sons (born from several ex-wives) all help with his business. His legit business is running cargo ships across the world. Otherwise, he deals in stolen art & antiques. Pops Malfatorre also has one single daughter from his late wife (God Rest Her Soul) whom he likes to keep out of all the “Men Stuff.”
