You are here to live a life as a crime boss, look in the character description (the long one) to look at the things you have to consider.

Anyways, this will be located in the U.S, what state do you want to start in?

What current year do you want to start in?

And the name of you and your mafia/criminal organization.

After that, you are good to go, you will be given a randomized amount of resources, usually a very low amount.
