[Mayu]

Mob boss, you mean tony or someone else lol sorry im brain fried at the moment eaither way its fine

 

[JckHmmr_2000]

I'd like to create a completely original character who is the head of his own crime family, or is an up-and-coming junior mobster trying to establish his own crime family.

I would be willing to recruit my own crew from scratch, and to plan the activities we'd need to pull off to accomplish our goals.

I will borrow a few ideas from the Soprano Crime Family to make it closer to what you might like. For example, we will acquire a strip club to use as our front.

oh sounds cool your more welcome to

Future Mob Boss

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v103/Solace001/1Sanctuary/GTA/9b42e822.jpg
Name: Johnny "The Boss" Saira

Age: 41

Race: Asian/Pacific Islander

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 169 lbs.

Description: black hair, dark brown eyes, light bronze complexion, usually wears glasses

Criminal Record: None to date
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v103/Solace001/1Sanctuary/GTA/9b42e822.png
Background: Johnny Saria is new in town, and he plans to start his own crime family from scratch. He spent his entire life being "the good guy," working jobs where he worked his fingers to the bone and had nothing to show for all his work except bony fingers.

He decided to make a change in his life a few years ago, so he went to law school, hoping to be a lawyer. Instead, he simply learned that crime -- if approached with enough planning and preparation, and executed with flawless timing and precision -- pays very well.

He graduated law school at age 40, cashed in his life savings and moved to a town where he felt he could start a new life -- something much more exciting and rewarding than his "misspent" youth of hardship and drudgery.

He expects to use his knowledge of the law, his keen insight and intellect, his leadership abilities and his background in martial artsto help him carve out his own criinal empire in a town known as Vice City.

The Beginning

SETTING: Ocean Beach is an upper-class tourist district consisting of a few skyscrapers and many low rises, directly based on South Beach and located in the southeastern most of Vice City. The area is primarily occupied by seaside and beach side apartments, hotels and upper-class businesses. An Art Deco Historic District-like row of Art Deco and Modernist low rises are also present; the road stretched along the row mimics that of Ocean Drive, bearing much resemblance to their real life counterparts in architecture and layout, and includes a flora partition between the low rises and beach, similar to Lummus Park. The lighthouse located at the southeastern most point mimics the Cape Florida lighthouse, the oldest structure in Miami, located in Key Biscayne, and a popular beach side tourist destination.

Inland towards the west, Ocean Beach contains additional commercial and residential buildings, resembling southwestern Miami Beach, westward from Collins Avenue (in fact, the road in Vice City that separates the two sides of the Ocean Beach in the manner that Collins Avenue does to southern Ocean Beach, and would eventually run along several beach side apartment and condominiums in Vice Point, similar to northern Collins Avenue).

The district boasts a marina, Ocean Bay Marina, mimicking a large marina stretched along Alton Road in Ocean Beach and located at the west end of the district. A hospital is also situated on the northwest end of Ocean Beach, named Ocean View Hospital, it is likely named for its locations affront the city bay. Two additional high-rise buildings located beside the hospital bear signage that claims that the tenants are the "Research and Development Department" of the "Ocean View Medical Foundation", suggesting that the buildings are related to the hospital.

Several other features may be noted in Ocean Beach. A park mimicking South Pointe Park is located on the southern end of Ocean Beach, and includes a seaside building with similar architecture designs, and an additional helipad. An open-air mall, Washington Mall, depicted at the northern end of Ocean Beach, is possibly based on the Bal Harbour Shops mall at Bal Harbour.

I book myself a room at the Ocean View hotel, located beach-side in the Ocean Beach district of Vice City.

I'll need to make a few contacts, and then get my crew together.

I'll need a driver, for starters.

I'll also need some muscle as well, maybe two or three guys who know what to do with a firearm or two.

Whoever they are, I need to find people who are loyal and trustworthy, perhaps even to a fault. That's the hard part.

 

[VickyCummings]

well don't know anything of about the Sorpranos but the mob idea sounds fun and what is a strip club without strippers, maybe I could play a stripper who is also wants in the power being associated with the Boss

 

[Mayu]

sounds good V

 

[VickyCummings]

Maybe I could be the type of stripper that acts like going to sleep with rival and kills them during the act, if that could work maybe.

OOC: First of all, YAY, Vicky is HERE!

Second, Vicky, we can always use some femme fatales; beautiful and smart women who know how to work their assets are always a boon to any organization, especially the one that I have in mind for this thread.

We will acquire a strip club sometime soon, and will also need strippers to work there (under the Family's care and protection, of course).

First Day: Cops Can Be Helpful, Too.

I went out walking after I checked myself into the hotel. I figured I needed to familiarize myself with my future territory.

I noticed a couple of police officers sitting in their police patrol car, and apparently, they noticed me, too.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v103/Solace001/1Sanctuary/GTA/c6be95f6.jpg
"Yo, Charlie Chan," one of the officers yelled out his window, and pointed to me directly. "C'mere, Charlie, I wanna talk to you."

I approached the police patrol car, and said out loud, "I'm sorry, I think you have me mistaken for someone else. My name is not Charlie..."

I was quite shocked at the smell of freshly-baked donuts and cheap, convenience store coffee emanating from their vehicle.

"Yeah, whatever, Charlie," the police officer said. His partner snickered from the driver's seat. "I don't know which part of China Town you're from, but around here, people don't jay-walk, alright?"

"But officer," I replied, appearing puzzled and confused. "I wasn't jay-walking. I was walking on the sidewalk when you called me to come over...."

"Right," the officer agreed. "But then you crossed the street where you weren't supposed to, and that's called jay-walking, isn't it?"

The police officer in the driver's seat started snickering even louder.

"Well, yes, I suppose," I stuttered. "But I wouldn't have done it if you didn't call me to come over in the first place..."

"Oh, so you're saying I MADE you commit a crime?" the first police officer said, glowering through his tinted shooting glasses. "Is that what you're trying to say, Charlie?"

The police officer angrily stepped out of his vehicle and slammed the door shut for emphasis.

"I pray to God Almighty that you just didn't disrespect the badge of authority given to me by the people of this good city," the police officer snarled. The other police officer exited the police car, smiling as he sauntered around the vehicle to join his partner.

"Uhhh, no, Officer, I just said that--"

"Oh, so you're calling me a liar, Charlie? Is that it?" the police officer growled at me as he stuck his face exactly one inch away from mine.

"I think we should cut the guy a break," the other police officer said coolly.

"Oh, thank you officer," I said, seeming relieved.

"I'm not finished talking yet," The officer who just spoke then poked me in the chest with a white oak bokken that he carried at his side in place of a regular police officer's nightstick or baton. "Tell you what, Charlie... My partner and I will forget your disrespectful behaviour as well as the crime you just committed, and we'll let you off with a warning. All you gotta do is pay the fine."

"Uh... a fine?" I ask, still seeming confused. "What fine?"

"It's the fine you need to pay to keep your Charlie ass from getting beaten, you stupid chinky sonofabitch!" the first officer roared.

"Oh, you mean, I need to pay you a bribe?" I cocked my eyebrow at both officers, with an edge of defiance in my tone of voice.

In reply, both officers lunged at me, dragging me into a dark alley immediately behind the Ocean View Hotel. One of them held me, while the other one swung the wooden sword at my head, knees and anywhere else he thought he could strike to hurt me.

I took a few of the shots while maneuvering us deeper into the alley, and then stepped forward and bent over at the waist, using a simple aikido move to throw the police officer grabbing me from behind. I took a couple more shots from the other officer's wooden sword before I could grab it and use it to jerk him into range. Off-balanced and surprised that I grabbed his weapon, the officer reached for his sidearm just as I dug the fingers of my right hand into the soft flesh behind his Adam's apple and tore his throat out.

The other officer recovered just in time to see his partner go down quietly drowning in his own blood. He, too, reached for his sidearm, all while yelling a few choice profanities, which I believe were mostly directed at me. I batted his pistol away with the wooden sword I now held in one hand, and shoved a fistfull of his partner's bloody throat deep into the officer's gaping mouth.

By the smell, I could tell that the man's gag reflex and revulsion caused him to vomit a substantial amount of sour-smelling bile. This only added to the man's difficulty as he struggled to spit and claw his partner's bloody, meaty Adam's apple that was literally lodged next to his own.

I stepped on both of the officer's necks and heads to quiet them down more quickly. Besides, I'm not a jerk. Why make them suffer more than absolutely necessary, right?

See? I can be a nice guy...

--------------------------------

I scavenged as much material from the police officers' corpses as well as their police patrol vehicle, and made it back to my hotel room with a couple of bullet-proof vests, two 9-millimeter pistols with extra extended ammunition clips, a 12-gauge pump action shotgun, and a whole trunk full of ammunition for all the firearms.

As a special souvenir, I also kept the white oak bokken. After all, it's my favorite, signature weapon, and it can definitely come handy for interrogations and intimidation tactics.
