WELCOME
TO
THE FAMILY
Congratulations.
You've finally found us.
We know you've been searching. Asking questions.
You didn't know it then, but you were asking the right people -
Friends of Ours, who gave you just enough to keep going.
We've been watching & waiting, as you crept in the dark;
Following the trail of breadcrumbs we laid for you.
Now that you're here, there's no going back...
But you knew that.
Welcome to The Family.

ABOUT US
SUMMARY
The Family is an exclusive Dark Noir-style Crime Syndicate. They are not well-known, operating elusively (and expertly) within the shadows of many worlds, orchestrating galactic events by manipulating politicians, forging alliances, and conducting elicit & legitimate business transactions. They own, or hold stake in, a number of companies through Front Organisations which have no official connection with organised crime. They do not discriminate, allowing members of all Species to join their ranks, but only hire those that are masters of discretion. Members of The Family operate through the use of certain codes, hand-signs, and recognition by certain Rituals - infiltrating the Organization is extremely difficult, as they do not broadcast their presence and are wary of anyone asking questions.
DOMAIN
The Family prefers to operate using Front Companies, making their money as legitimately as possible. However, their illicit activities extend into the full range of criminal behaviour, including trafficking in stolen goods, expensive artwork, and illegal substances. Their roots extend into blackmail, kidnapping, usury, the manufacture & distribution of weapons, technology & narcotics, and corporate espionage. On the other hand, Slavery is entirely outlawed & the practice of such business is grounds for ejection from the Family (Or Worse). The Family has even burned bridges over affiliated organizations' involvement in said business.
Members of The Family are expected to maintain connections with the Outside World, never calling attention to their own activities as Criminals. Instead, members are often given opportunities to involve themselves in their local communities, building influence and earning favour from the local population. By donating large sums of money & time to both Governments & local communities, The Family has been able to ingratiate & cement its' hold over both legitimate & illegal business across the Galaxy.
REPUTATION
Despite The Family's extensive criminal influence, they are generally well-received in the local population of the worlds they inhabit. Members of The Family remain involved in their own communities or are installed in positions of power when possible, wielding influence to improve the lives of individuals often forgotten by the Governments of said worlds. Their enforcers often provide protection from other less-organized criminal organizations, and they invest some of their money into improving daily life for those under their charge.
Among the Criminal Underworld, The Family's name is spoken in hushed tones and often in fearful respect. The Family's senior members are all well-known members of the Galactic Underworld, and each possesses considerable influence & power in their own right. Combined, The Family is capable of bringing a shocking amount of Political, Economical, and Physical power to bare against any threat.
