The setting will be in Chicago and will take place in the late 1940s. The setting will be realistic to that time period, but our characters and the family names will all be fictional ones. The main focus will be on the Italian family of mobsters running Chicago, along with their adversaries and law enforcement.
I'd like this to be quite open and collaborative, with at least 2 paragraphs per post (when possible). Subplots are welcome as will some "secret" plots which I may well arrange with some players via PM. This will be very character focused but there will be many opportunities for physical conflict and action too. It won't be smiles and sunshine, so don't be surprised if your character ends up suffering! The two main gang bosses hate each other on a personal level, so their families are expected to as well... not that things are ever going to be so simple. This will be very relationship-focused; love/hate, friends/enemies, etc.
Places I am keen to be filled are below, but I am open to further ideas and discussion. Multiple characters are welcomed and encouraged.
Italians:
Mob Boss (my character)
Consigliere/Right-hand man
Boss' Wife
Son 1
Son 2

Enemy Gang (TBD):

Wife
Sons and Daughters (up to 4)
Gang Members (no limit on characters)
Others:
