It's nothing but a bunch of guys in suits packing heat. Let me tell you something, you see that guy right there in the picture? He's a Mafioso. Doesn't look like much, does he? Well, take another look. He's the leader of one of the most powerful Mafia Families around today. He calls himself Sovrano - or King in Italian. His family is called the Monarca Italiano; "The Italian Monarchy".
You didn't hear it from me, but he's a tyrant. Not your cliche don - no, not in the least. He abuses his powers and doesn't know his right from his left even though he can squint with one eye and aim his shot with the other. He doesn't've the sharpest wit in the Mafia World, and he's just lucky he has all these trained specialists protecting his a**.
Now, let me tell you what's the problem. He's trying to snuff out all of the families, one by one. No one ever even thought of it before he challenged the Mafia World, proclaiming that his family had been the exterminating force of the Vongola's disappearance. Surely, no one believed them, but when all three of the top three families - Galimon, Gavlynn and the Stella Di'Mare - joined forces to fight him, all three were wiped out with little effort.
He seems to be more of a threat than we can manage.
I'm telling you this because, as a mutual interest, almost all of the families - rivals and allies alike - have come to the consensus that this man needs to be stopped. By no means do our numbers grant us any kinds of advantages, though - this is still the realm of the Mafia, and anything is possible. It is even possible that he hasn't even shown a fraction of his power just yet.
Pretty much, the families have allied themselves together to overthrow this unjust and unsuited Mafia King - this Sovrano Monarca. Members from different families have taken it upon themselves to band together, despite their entire families' reluctance. It's pretty dumb, if you ask me; we're all trying get rid of this guy so we don't all lose our lives thanks to one stupid daydreamer. Whether you like it or not, it looks like we'll all have to be getting along to find out where this guy is hiding, how to get there, and how to take him down.
Of course, nothing is ever that easy.

Surely, you all know well enough that we're Mafiosos. We aren't barbarians [ at least, not all of us are ] and so we'll be speaking in complete words and using adequate grammar if you're not the best elocutionist. Complete sentences go too.
Our skills have been refined to the point of us fighting with enough sense to know how to actually fight. No inappropriate battling tactics will be accepted here. While the self-proclaimed ruler of the Mafia world may be really over-powered for no apparent reason other than some kind of absurdly extreme experiences he may have had to endure in order to become stronger, we, on the other hand, won't. We will be unique yet ordinary hitmen and we will perform our obligations and duties as we are told by our officers. No one is perfect, and I'm pretty sure as hell you aren't close to it. You're your own person, sure, but no one's to be perfect in every single way - it just doesn't happen.
Except for me, of course.
So, onto the matter at hand - we may not exactly know what's going on all the time, and so it should be. I mean, I'd like to know what the Mafia King's thinking right now, but I don't, because I can't. You know that thing weird people call the Fourth Wall? That's what it is, I guess - thing is, after the first three, we're definitely not breaking it, even if it were a strand of... saliva.
So, yeah. We're all busy in here - running around and making sure this stupid Mafia King doesn't try and trickle his forces over into our territory. While the entire world may lay obedient to his oppression, I've got some friends out back who'll be more than glad to take this guy down and ******** s**t up.
Oh, and that reminds me: watch your mouth.

You're in this, right?
I mean, you wouldn't be part of the Mafia if you weren't already willing to put your life on the line for your family. Whether you actually wanted to or not, that is. So, here's the clipboard. Just follow the instructions and we'll all learn each others' names soon enough that we'll be able to know all about them.
Don't get too buddy-buddy, though. We're all still Hitmen and need to stay on our toes.Elaboration Alright, so, you're going to copy everything after the bbcode starts. Thing is, this little explanation's here to further elaborate on what Monty couldn't in his little commentary prior. What you will find in here are the following categories: an image, two names, and a brief series of descriptive attributes you hold that will give us a better understanding of you. Don't be afraid to write as much as you'd like, but for the interest of fitting everyone's name on the clipboard, please keep it down to a moderate size.
 this is going to be a little banner that links to the full image or a profile, if you've one accessible in the guild. The image is to go through several different steps to be commonly presented here. MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THESE EXACT DIRECTIONS:
- go to www.picknik.com and start editing the photo
- crop / resize / re-crop as necessary to fit the dimensions 300 x 87
- go to the "create" tab, click the "effects" section and apply the standard/default "orton" effect, then apply the standard/default "cross process" effect.
- go to "frames" in that same tab, different section, scroll down, and apply the "drop shadow" frame - configure should be as follows:
distance - 2 ; angle - 90 ; size - 5 ; fade - 30% [so you're only changing the distance and size of the shadow] save as that [dimensions of final product should be 314 x 101], and then toss the edited banner into the image bracket code.
gaia name - your gaia username that we identify you by;
name - your character's first name, middle initial [if applicable] and last name
family - respective family your character was a part of prior to idle status of the guild's roleplay
- age - gender - flame - * this line you're going to leave as is and just replace with the traits with the words; ie. "- 17 - female - cloud -"
After that, there's going to be a part labeled "persona" - for this, a brief explanation of both their personality and their background if you're so inclined. Two paragraphs minimum, so that could mean one for the personality and one of the history or just two for the personality.
Lastly, the color codes are to identify your character when they speak in the event that you don't include an image and a name in your posting format [which is strongly suggested.] [url=][img][/img][/url]
[size=9][color=colorhere][b]username:[/b][/color]
[b]name:[/b]
[b]family:[/b]
[color=colorhere][i]- age - gender - flame -[/i][/color]
[b]persona -[/b] one paragraph personality + one paragraph history OR two paragraphs personality [ AT THE LEAST ][/size]

Alright, now that I've all of your attention, we've business to settle.W a k i n g ` U p
-----
Current Objective
Just a regular day. Get up and get ready for life.
Members Involved
Alleato Famiglia - The members from different Families who are part of the Allied Force against the Sovrano Monarca. Leaders are the Sky Guardians of each family who are actually present.
Summary: And the summary goes here. What's going on right now? Well, we're just getting started is all. I suppose people are waking up and the leaders are coming out from their briefing room. The base for the Alleato [Allied] Famiglia - which would be the rogue Hitmen who've already joined this resistance - is somewhere underground and best concealed from the sources and infiltration of opposing forces. Of course, Alleato members are free to inhabit the surface, but they aren't to be parading about the cities of Southern Italy - the vicinity in which the Alleato Base is hidden.
Where the Monarca is located, no one knows. Not even the best technologists that the Alleato have rounded up have so much as a hint.
