Hello! @Scavenger and I are looking to start a mafia roleplay that focuses on the children of various mafia families and other very high wealth groups such as royalty and oligarchs. The idea would be for them to live in dorms and attend classes at a very wealthy boarding school in Switzerland, whose campus operates as a neutral ground for the various families and groups involved. The current thought is for the school to be located in a fairly remote spot with a small closely-watched town nearby to give students an opportunity to visit a different environment every now and then. If players prefer a different region, we could probably even make a coastal setting along the Adriatic work. It just depends on what sort of places people would like to explore with their characters! (Or perhaps students could even go on occasional field trips. 
)"
If you’re interested in joining and would like to brainstorm with us or share any additional ideas you may have for the RP, feel free to toss your thoughts into the thread!
----------
Important:
This RP will likely be slower-paced to accommodate any players who are busy with school and work, so it might not be a good match for those seeking RP sessions with quick back and forth replies.
Anyone is welcome to participate. However, because this roleplay centers around characters whose families are engaged in organized crime, please be aware of the extreme likeliness that darker topics -such as murder, drug abuse, assault, and exploitation- will be addressed or alluded to in character profiles and during the story itself. Foul language and cursing can also be expected.
Absolutely no smut or extreme gore. In general, players are expected to follow RPNation's Community Guidelines whenever creating content for this roleplay.
-----------
Additional Information:
The focus will be on student characters, but if somebody is more interested in creating a teacher character or two, that would also be perfectly okay!
The boarding school is aimed toward students who are 16-20 years old. In certain cases, younger students have also been admitted into the program.
English serves as the lingua franca between students and teachers at the boarding school.
The amount of involvement that a character has in their family's criminal activities is up to each player to decide. (Note: The Wikipedia article on organized crime provides a list of typical activities if anyone requires a spark of inspiration.)
Due to the premise of the school, the mafia families and groups involved are assumed to have the following types of relationships with one another: ally, neutral, undecided. This is because nobody wants to actively break the neutrality since doing so would cause them to miss out on the opportunities that it provides. Players are still welcome, however, to coordinate among themselves whether they would like to have a previously established rivalry with another player's mafia family in their clan backstory—just no vendetta-style conflicts unless the premise would allow for the two player characters to reasonably exist in the same space without killing each other. An example of such an accommodation might be two school friends who do not realize their fathers are mortal enemies.
Characters and their mafia families/groups may originate from whatever country the player wishes, though it is preferred that individual families/groups do not come from the same city, unless the creators of the families/groups are willing to collaborate to provide a reason for how this came to be and whether the families/groups are allies or rivals. If players are not interested in collaborating in such a manner, then priority will be given to the person who requests the location first.
Edit - Additional Clarification: Characters do not need to be from European countries to be enrolled in the school. They can come from any part of the world.
