—Sicily: Cosa Nostra— Sicily, Italy, circa late 1890s-early 1900s. It is here, in the old country, where we see the rise of the Italian Mafia; born from the wealthy lemon grove plantation families & their hired thugs as they fight each other & law enforcers from the Sicilian & Italian governments in order to maintain their power, honor, and wealth via murders or assassinations, intimidation, and extortion. Those caught in the crossfire have two options: Submit to the mafia’s demands or face the consequences.

One of those people is you, a simple vineyard farmer in the village of San Rosa deLeo, as you’ve been struggling to pay off a debt owed to Don Vincenzo that was passed down to you after your father’s murder for failure to pay protection money. With the ruthlessness of the Vincenzo family and the unrelenting act of desperation, you would later find yourself falling into the world of the Italian Mafia in order to obtain what you crave most: Power, wealth, and respect. But once you fall into the hole, will there be a chance to get out of it alive? (Note: I HIGHY recommend checking out the Character Profile (all of it) in order to get a better understanding for the rp. I’d also recommend to please describe your OC character for the story before you begin. Thanks!)
