INTRODUCTION
Almost 10 years ago, the Porters of the Irish Mob emigrated and moved their business operations from Chicago, US to Dublin, Ireland. After forming an unexpected alliance with the highly powerful Russian Mafia, they worked together to take down the deadly Italian Mafia. In the aftermath of the Italians' fall, James Porter took leadership of the Irish Mob and made an agreement with the Russians that they could have free reign over the streets of Chicago. In return, it was ensured the Irish would have rule over the UK and Ireland.
Dublin in 1959 is a relatively relaxed place to live, especially if you're allied with the Porters and the Irish Mob. The families have lived in what can be best described as comfort, having taken down, intimidated and controlled anyone who dares to get in the Porters' way. However, the cops are getting smarter and the other gangs growing braver, which all threatens to disturb the harmony. Not to mention differences in opinion with their former Russian allies.
Really, though. What could possibly go wrong?

** This RP will be drama, family and character driven - like a violent soap opera! There will be plenty of opportunities to form relationships within the RP and build up your character(s) depth. There will also be storylines which may involve threats, arguments, physical/mental torture and other dark subjects you're likely to find in a gangster story! Essentially, though, it's bound to be heavily focused on relationships - love and hate! **:: IC THREAD :: OOC THREAD ::

Residences
1. The largest house is where the Porters live. There's lots of guest rooms so family and friends can stay over - there's no better feeling than a house full of friends! There are also a couple of offices/meeting rooms for those all important business meetings. Let's not forget about that indoor swimming pool - the kids love that. There's also access to the rooftops, because everyone loves a good view... In reality, James loves a good vantage point for security purposes.
2. The smaller, but still fantastic, house is where the Callahans live. It's close enough to the safety and warmth of the Porters but gives the Callahans their own living space. There's still room for guests too.
3. By the main road there's the only two ways vehicles can enter and both have security gates which are kept guarded. Near to the Callahans' place there's a small building which tends to be where the guards can rest whilst remaining "on-call". This lifestyle requires high security and James Porter is a stickler for protecting his family!
4. Cut off from the right corner of the image are the stables, for the family's horses.

Rules
1. Misty Gray , Bellz , Enzyme Pyroclast are the GMs.
2. Reserving a role requires a writing sample. Before I will reserve a role for you, please PM one of the GMs a writing sample - it can be something previously written or something based on the character you wish to submit.
3. Romance is a wonderful thing and I encourage it, but fade to black if things become sexual.
4. No bumping off others’ characters without discussing it with the GMs and player involved.
5. Please only join if you can commit to posting at least 3 times per week and don’t plan on leaving any time soon!
6. Profanity is acceptable, within reason. No need to make it excessive.
7. Please try to write 2+ paragraphs per post. One-liners will make me sad.
