Faction Information

Summary

The Crowley Boys have appeared in Seattle since the early years of The Amazonian (Aztlan) War. Their gang is organized by pro-metahuman groups (radical & terrorist groups vilified by Elven nations), immigrants (ethnic groups) originated in Eastern Europe), orks and trolls associates of The O'Malley Family, and made man members of The Punchinello Family. Crowley's street cred is recognized by O'Malley & Don Punchinello, was once an associate doing drek jobs for them at a young age. Few rumors and conspirators around Tacoma known Victor speculate stories of his disappearance in 2011 during the Awakening and after The Great Ghost Dance from his long absents ever since he suddenly reappeared out the bloom in The Sixth World. Victor Crowley has become a public enemy amongst gangs & law enforcement corporations.

No one knows how a middle-age man in his early 30s remained young in 2070s... for a metahuman, few of the residents in Tacoma theorize he may been cryogenicaly frozen and made deals with a corporate SIN benefactor. At the time Victor became outspoken against changelings and Oni's he only sees them as demons, or dead men who'd been risen to torment others (that's what he sees in his beliefs). Eventually, his influence of recruiting new members to join his gang has gain an attraction amongst former IRA soldiers (Irish Republican Army) and radical groups, mostly metahumans, but some are Irish-Scottish (or Finnegan) descendants, and others are Orks & trolls whom became associates of Victor Crowley. Although while many Mafia gangs don't trust mages or Shamens in Northern America, Victor only cares about strength and numbers.

Background

The Crowley Boys are mostly dominant by metahumans than Orks and Trolls in their ranks, but that doesn't mean they're the most infamous gang compare to the Ancients or Halloweeners. Their gang territories can be seen hanging out by the docks in Tacoma or hideouts. In Downtown, the O'Molley Pub is part of a Irish tavern run by Sean McGuire, mixed in night club theme where all the party goers hangout at the lounge by the dance floor, and dancer show girls displaying on stage. Blow underground is where they solicit gambling, host fight pits, and fixers whom offer their services to mercenaries looking for work. Anyone whose looking to do business will be in the underground. On top of the night club is where the Dons & made men are hung out- either to conduct business with the Crowley Boys, or to gather meetings to meet with Mafia bosses in Seattle.

Their gang mostly operates in Tacoma Docks and Everett distributing cargo containers filled with food and alcohol rum importing from Eastern Europe, in some parts of the docks. Colm O'Higgins is Victor's second lieutenant, in-charge of distribution & union labor work for the workers handling crates & cargo supplies. Anyone whose got a problem with Higgins boys will answer to him. The wages they offer union workers are awful, but the perfect location to smuggle weapons and gear.

The Crowley Boys have a large hideout somewhere in the Barrens, used one of the shanty hotels or bars run by small-time shop keepers or hotel clerks running amock. Inside the interior of the building is nothing but cheap mobster punk and neon signs offering patrons for room service or "premium services" for call girls. Pete Lancaster runs a small operation in The Barrens, offers Shadowrunner jobs looking for work. His services are adequate.

Allies

 ᛥ The O'Malley Family
 ᛥ Don LeMon Punchinello (Italian Mafia)
 ᛥ Crimson Crush (Neutral)

Enemies

 ▶ Ancients
 ▶ Halloweeners
 ▶ Changelings

Current Status

Although many Mafia families won't allow metahumans to become made man, nor they don't trust mages or shamens. The Crowley Boys are welcome to newcomers to join their ranks, if you can shoot, can cast a spell that kills them, summon a spirit can kill, or kill without thought, you're in. If you hate changelings or Oni's you deem to hate their guts, you're in. (Note: May be up to thematics)

Orks and Trolls are allowed to join the gang and considered them boys, some members don't take too kindly to Orks and Oni (especially pro-humans who are radical metaracists). Victor made a strong stance and has a say who gets to join and who doesn't. Changelings are considered freaks or abominations (including Onis) they don't see them fit for society. Victor's catholic beliefs & views are prejudice, or somewhat radical.

Meanwhile, the Crowley boys have a competition with the Ancients and Halloweeners for over a decade. When things got headed between two factions. The result of gang wars and ambush hit squads (saboteurs) has effected his business and money, Victor's gang had lost more than 625 members every year, and cargo containers (even food trucks) have seized or torched by the Halloweeners. Ancients began targeting his lieutenants and key figures (Dons influence by Crowley's gang) to weaken his business, so far a small handful of success assassinations resulted Victor to recruit some hired muscle (street sam mercenaries, mages, and shamens).

Health Summary

The Crowley Boys are moderately maintaining their relationship between The Mafia families and Crimson Crush despite their differences. They're still in neutral terms with the Crimson Crush.

The O'Malleys and Don Punchinello's mob have helped Crowley's business to thrive after his business have suffered by his competitors.
