Sign Up Vice City: Ashes to Ashes

[Gavin]

[Color=royalblue][Size=1][I]An aging Tommy Vercetti sat in the office of his club, the Malibu, several bottles of whisky lay in an untidy state over the floor stained with booze and cigar buds. Taking a near empty bottle to his lips, Tommy drank copiously leaving whatever liquid he couldn't drink spill down over his chin and chest. His eyes were glazed over and his thought random and erratic, he was becoming ever more paranoid in his old age. A knock at the door would cause him to reach for a concealed weapon in his desk drawers, a knife or a gun it never mattered, he would have been too drunk to use either. He ran his fingers back through his now grey hair and closed his eyes for a rest, his guards knowing this was the norm.

Tommy Vercetti had been running Vice City for nearly 20 years, after a failed drug deal in 1986 he had made it his personal mission to take this city for his won, and to kill anyone and everyone who got in his way. A failed alliance with Lance Vance had taught him the value of trust and that breaking it would mean death. He had also dealt with former business associated that came to take their cut in his new affairs. Tommy over the years had fought off many powerful gangs that wanted to pollute his city. the Judges, DAs, Politicians and the Police, all of them were under Vercetti's control and if one stepped out of line there was always another to take their place once their predecessors were taken care of. Tommy had killed many people in Vice City, one of them, the transvestite Congressman Alex Shrub had been fitted with a pair of ladies cement shoes and dropped into the harbor after tempting Tommy's limits.

A stretch limousine pulled up outside the Malibu, and Tommy groggily looked out the window to see who it was. Six well dressed Russians stepped out from the car, five guys and one woman, man she was beautiful Tommy thought. Tommy was 53 although years of hard drinking had left him looking like a 65 years old. The woman led the group inside, he heard that she wanted to see the manager about a business deal. Tommy called over the intercom to let her up, she walked slowly into his office his eyes were cloudy and he could barely see, she was beautiful, it hadn't been a dream. He tried to snap out of his drunken stupor and tried to tidy himself up, combing down his hair and straightened his clothes, he waved his hands and asked his Bodyguards to give them some time alone. They looked at one another warily and walked out down the stairs into the main club section.

Tommy asked to have the name of such a beautiful woman, to which she replied "Nyah", he reached down into the cabinet beside him and pulled out a bottle of old wine, very good year he thought. He looked up and with a resounding gasp and seven loud bullet shots, Tommy Vercetti collapsed over his desk, blood pooling onto the floor, dead. On hearing the echoed shots, the other men who had come in pulled out automatic pistols and began killing anyone and everyone in sight, after their ammo was spent, they surveyed the damage to the club, bodies were littered across the floor, no one left alive. The woman walked down the stairs looking very pleased with herself, "he's dead, now lets torch the place" she said with a hint of pleasure in her voice.

Three of the men retreated to the car and returned with petrol canisters. Emptying their contents of the cans over the floor, one by one the left the building until only the woman remained, taking a cigarette lighter from her pocket she lit it and through it into a pool of petrol. The fire grew and spread quickly engulfing everything it touched, smoke billowed from the windows and the fire eventually gutted the building and burned all the bodies into ash. Sitting in an office across town, a phone rang, a Russian gentleman picked up the phone and was told "it is done Vlad".

Upon hearing the death of the head of Vice City's supreme crime lord, other gangs have been pushing their interests and their men into the city. The Russians, the Mafia, the Yakuza, the Triads and the Colombians have all been buying up property to get a foothold into the City. The Haitians and the Yardies however have decided to pool their resources and have formed what they call the Caribbean Cartel, through which they have effectively eliminated the Cubans as a gang threat and seized their territory for their own. It is a gang vacuum and Vice City is looking more and more likely to become the new Liberty.

Several other hits against Vercetti's men have been made, Kenneth Rosenberg a corrupt Lawyer who was Vercetti's right hand man in later years was found dead in the toilets of the Pole Position Strip Club, with a single gunshot wound to the head. While several of his most loyal men have been killed in other recent incidents, few have decided to even stay in the city, let alone join other gangs. It all for the taking now in Vice City and every man has both a price and a bullet with his name on it.[/i]

Welcome to Vice City: Ashes to Ashes, I really should have thought of a better title. As you can see this is set in this year and details the chaos after the death of Tommy Vercetti, with every gang fighting to keep their own turf and warring to get their hands into others. If you read on I will allow the characters of Sergie and Nyah Nekhorovich to be chosen however if I do not like what is written I will ask for it to be changed.

[b]My Sign Up[/b]:

[I]Name[/I]: Vladimir Nekhorovich

[I]Age[/I]: 37

[I]Sex[/I]: Male

[I]Height[/I]: 6'7"

[I]Weight[/I]: 290 lbs.

[I]Gang Allegiance[/I]: Russian Cartel

[I]Weapons[/I]: 2X Desert Eagles .40 with armor piercing bullets or an M4 Carbine Rifle also equipped with armor piercing bullets

[I]Mode of Transport[/I]: Metallic black Rancher, bullet proofed windows and body, one way window panes, a perfect way for him to travel the streets unnoticed. Other times however he chooses to use his Maverick to get from place to place if necessary.

[I]History[/I]: Vladimir Nekhorovick, information provided by F.B.I files: Very little is known about this man. His past before he reached America has been effectively erased by ex-KGB elements working for Nekhorovich in order to keep his enemies from knowing his details. What is known however is that he is the current leader of the Russian Cartel in Vice City, which is wanted in connection for several murders and the arson of the club Malibu. He is also wanted for the death of nine undercover Federal Agents, as well as the death of numerous police officers both on and off duty and at least fifty other murders of civilian and gang members. A large scar running diagonally down his right cheek can identify Nekhorovich. Be warned, Nekhorovich is heavily armed and very dangerous, he cares very little for those who he sees as no benefit to him and has been known to commit torture, murder and rape as he sees fit. It is advised under no circumstances should there be an attempt to bring him alive before a court of law, and a death sentence has already been judged upon him.

His only known associates are his sister Nyah Nekhorovich and his brother Sergie Valantine Nekhorovich. Sergie is an ex member of the KGB and most probably the one who erased his files and those of his family from KGB records. He is a master computer hacker as well as a demolitions expert and known to enjoy similar pleasures to those of his brother, he has been never directly charged of any crimes. Nyah Nekhorovich is known to be almost as deadly as Vladimir is, she is a very capable thief and an expert in assassination. She has been charged with the murder of seven very powerful criminal heads across the world. She appears to be working with her brother in criminal activities in Vice City and is also known to be armed and dangerous. Under no circumstances is she to be under estimated as it could prove fatal.

[I]Personality[/I]: Sadistic, cruel and very cold, he will kill anyone for any reason even those who are loyal to him. He especially enjoys torture as a method of extracting information about his enemies and their whereabouts so he can get rid of them, even if he does get the information he will still torture his victims for a while before he will finally kill them.

[I]Description[/I]: Long dark brown hair to shoulder length, short beard of same color, dark cold icy blue eyes, worn looking skin with a large knife scar to his right cheek approx. 4 inches long. Black leather coat reaching his to his knees, he will often wear a black trousers with a dark green shirt and a black tie and with highly polished black leather shoes.[/size][/color]

[B]History:[/B] Pauly Cissiro was born into a Sicilian family under Jimmy and Kay Cissiro. Jimmy had been in the mafia for many years, and he had been made for quite some time. It was only natural that Pauly would follow in his footsteps. He started when he was 13, doing small delivery jobs and sending messages around. Quickly he became very popular in mafia territory, as they loved watching children grow into the business. He would walk into a shop or a restaurant and would never have to wait in line, he would walk into a bar with his father on one of his regular "meetings", and all his Dad's friends would give him hundreds of dollars simply for getting them drinks. The mafia was a family, and they all looked out for each other. This was something he wanted to be a part of more than anything.

Now Pauly works under his father, doing any and all jobs with his friend Joey, who he had basically grown up with. They are well known for their ability to heist trucks of cigarette's, booze, basically anything. Most of the truck drivers actually knew about the heists, and would let the boys steal the trucks, because they would get a little something for their troubles. The only thing Joey and Pauly disagree on is that Joey does drugs, and Pauly won't touch the stuff.

[B]Personality:[/B] Arrogant, very up-beat and yet pragmatic. Though, he is easily angered, and the results are not normally good for the people he gets angry with.

[B]Description:[/B] Hazel eyes, brown hair combed back. He is clean shaven, and is well built, but not fat. He wears only suits, as the Mafia pride themselves on looking presentable. He can often be seen smoking cigars, a trait he inherited from his father.
