Welcome to Gambit City, crime capital of the world, conveniently located on the sunny coast of California. Many gangs and crime syndicates have been clashing here for years, some people can't even remember why they're fighting. They just are. However, you'd never know it unless you were involved in the inner workings. Thousands of people live happy, normal lives in this city, completely oblivious, that just goes to show how well hidden these things are...
Where do your loyalties lie? Choose wisely. |

--*Ethnicities are not set in stone, but you better have a damn good reason for an Irishman to be running with the Triad Society (or the like, you get the idea).
THE FAMILIES -- - Graziano:[Italian Based] The Graziano family is one of the most well-known and respected families in Gambit city, especially due to their close ties with the Mafia. Family is the base of their beliefs, if you disrespect one of the Grazianos, you'd better be ready for what's coming to you.
Feuding with: The Morales family
- Morales:[Hispanic Based] Unlike the Grazianos, the Morales family won't be discreet about dealing your punishment. They're closely tied with the Cartel and will bring a hellstorm onto you if you tangle with them. Damaging their pride would never be a good idea.
Feuding with: The Graziano family
CRIME SYNDICATES -- - Italian Mafia:[Italian Based] The Mafia is deeply entrenched in the politics of Gambit city, holding seats in political parties and running most of the city's primary economical boosters: the casinos. Funny how status can allow you to get away with murder. Though they aren't fond of the Cartel, due to familial issues, they'll occasionally ally and deal with them, since it's beneficial to both parties.
Warring with: The Triad Society
- The Triad Society:[East Asian Based] Money laundering is the main endeavour of the Triads, however, that doesn't stop them from dabbling in a few other schemes. Due to the small size of their community, the Triads aren't strictly loyal to family, but rather, all those within their influence.
Warring with: The Italian Mafia & The Colombian Cartel
- Colombian Cartel:[Hispanic Based] Up to their eyeballs in narcotics, the Cartel are known for the selling and buying of substances. This group is fiercely loyal to those within it, however, that's why the penalty is so unpleasant for traitors and moles. Though they aren't fond of the Mafia, due to familial issues, they'll occasionally ally and deal with them, since it's beneficial to both parties.
Warring with: The Triad Society
STREET GANGS -- Unlike the major crime syndicates, street gangs have no real designated involvement in any inner workings of the city. For the most part, they partake in petty crime and minor violence, though they'll occasionally get involved in brawls and the like.
- Kamikaze:[East Asian Based] The Kamikaze are quite dangerous. A ruthless street gang involved more in narcotics and the underground club scene than anything else. However, violence is a large part of their lifestyle. Much like the Triads, the Kamikaze will lash out at anyone who threatens their community.
- Sharks:[Caucasian Based] The Sharks are essentially a joke, not to civillians, but to all other criminal organizations. They're completely disorganized and primarily exist to participate in street fights.
- Bikers:[Caucasian Based] The Bikers mostly keep to themselves, they're one of the few gangs allowed to pass through all other gang territories, for a short period of time, due to their vagabond lifestyle. They have no set turf and won't bother others, with anything other than insults and threats, unless approached.
OTHER -- - Wildcards:[Assorted] An underground group, consisting mainly of bounty hunters, traitors and con-artists. Gangs will often hire a Wildcard to do their dirty work. Most Wildcards are severely independent with no sense of responsibility or loyalty.
- The Fuzz:[Assorted] Where there's chaos, disorder, drug trafficking, shootings, stabbings, fighting and the like, there's going to be those people who dislike what's going on. These people are known as 'The Fuzz' [or the police to those without the proper slang knowledge]. They're a mixed bunch, all with their own morals and ideas. Some can be dirty or paid-off, some are strictly by-the-book or undercover. Whatever they are, it's smart to steer clear of them.
