History: Lorenzo grew up in Tuscany, living on a dairy farm for his entire childhood. His parents wanted nothing to do with his uncle, seeing as he ran in crime up in Sicily. And as the years progressed, the bad blood boiled. So as a young boy he was shielded from the deadly family waters, in hopes to preserve their only son.
And it worked. He left Italy, moving to London in hopes of starting new intresting life. And that he did. Attending St. Andrews, studying American law, he found he was quite a peoples person, talking up people in bars, usually haggling a good amount of cash from the drunks. For 8 years he did this, then once graduating law school decided to head west once more.
Settling into a quaint Los Angeles firm, he quickly earned his way up, case by case. By age 30, he was the head of his firm, living quite lavishly in Santa Monica. But, he grew bored. Something was missing in his life. He knew his cousin had immigrated as he did, living in Chicago. So he began to keep tabs on him, studying any criminal event in the city quite carefully. And so began his intrests.
Having all the money he'd need for a good while,he sold the firm, and began his negotiation career.
Starting in San Diego, he quickly began to negotiate drug trafficking deals, as well as human, for the Cartel. Then he began to branch out in more manipulation, talking many men into killing themselves, some even to conviction. It was quite a sight. But recently he's grown bored again, inspiring his Chicago trip. Although he may not be quite welcomed...
