The Esposito Family (Patreon)

This is the base family for the crime family that was released a few weeks ago with the same name. Ideally, Nicky Lips, Tony Vecchio and Alessandro Messina will be the gang members, with Armando and Carmine Esposito as the enforcers or captains.

Outfits will be showcased on Loverslab under my thread for CAS characters.  Some traits were taken from Chingy's V1 and V2 packs.

Antonio Esposito is the aging Don of The Esposito Crime Family. Principled, family-oriented, and fair, Don Esposito has the respect of the other families in the Italian Mafia. However, the criminal landscape is vastly changing and Don Esposito’s archaic outlook on crime may not withstand the increasing ruthless nature of the underworld. He has kept his business and family separate for the majority of his tenure, but can he remain one step ahead of his enemies? Or will his empire come crumbling down by the hand of a rival family?

Talia is the long-standing wife of the Antonio and mother to Armando, Carmine and Matteo. She has been loyal to her husband despite knowing the nature of his business affairs and has dutifully carried out her duties as a mother, just like any Italian mob wife would.

Armando is the oldest child of the Esposito Family and is first in line to succeed his father as head of the family. With a wife of his own and two young children (coming soon), Armando has the foundational pieces in place to be a don. However, his playboy behavior and hot-headed nature may prove to be the achilles for Armando. He may or may have a bastard child running around, unbeknownst to Armando.

Carmine is another schmoozer and lover of the “arts”. Unlike his older brother, Carmine is hardly a gangster. He is much too soft and does not lack the killer instinct that his father and brother possess. He does have an uncanny ability to socialize with individuals, whether they are part of the Elite or otherwise, and is known as an excellent party planner. Still, like any man, he longs for a position of power in the Family after being relegated to the periphery of the Family hierarchy.

Matteo is the youngest son of Antonio and Talia. As a student of Britechester University, Matteo intends to separate himself from the Family as he loathes his father’s business. However, Matteo’s demeanor is what best suits him to be his father’s successor. He secretly has a mean streak like his brother, Armando, while also possessing the tactical skillset of his father. Despite knowing of his son’s true nature, Antonio secretly hopes that Matteo enters a legitimate life as a senator or a lawyer and wishes to keep him out the family business. Will Antonio’s wish be realized or will Matteo be thrusted into the Don’s chair?
