name: Pharos de Angelo
age: 10
appearance: Like this, except he wears normal clothes.
occupation: Mob boss
residence: Here
fix: Pharos needs to be around the dead, dying, and those who WISH they were dead and or dying. He doesn't have to be the cause, but uh. He's not terribly helpful when around them because he kind of feeds off that despair.
permissions: Here.
record:
The de Angelo family is a crime family that’s lived and worked in the city for many, many years. They’ve bounced between particular interests throughout the years, though once one of their members stumbled upon the manufacturing of a new drug, they finally found their calling. The drug, using the street name ‘Lost,’ is an escape drug that allows the using to become completely apathetic to their problems during its course. The sale of this drug has allowed the gang to earn quite a bit of money in recently years, especially the de Angelo main family, allowing them to crawl their way into a middle class lifestyle with eyes aimed for the top.
However, the current head of the family has been slightly concerned about their prospects. He has several children, but the one that shows the most promise is his youngest, Pharos. Normally, he would just wait until his son was older and train him then, but being a gang with sole access to any drug leaves them with a lot of enemies so the training started once Pharos was old enough to show any potential.
During this time, any chance Pharos may have had at a ‘normal’ childhood was shot down. He was never put in school, taught instead by his parents (who included some normal curriculum mixed with how to make proper deals and ‘run a business,’ including a good portion on tactics and defense), and his interactions were limited almost entirely to his immediate family and upper members of the mob itself. He never voiced any complaint with this, recognizing that this was his role in their family and that he needed to support them, but there were periods were he would grow depressingly lonely. In order to keep himself sane, he had to learn to shut down such feelings, leaving him very out of touch with his emotions.
It turned out the paranoia was well deserved. When Pharos just ten, his father got caught up in a shoot-out over a drug shipment, leaving him in very bad condition. He was still alive, sure, but with the mobility of their group he didn’t feel like he could run it as effectively as he once could. So he announced to his family that Pharos would taking over, though he wanted his siblings to support him in all ways because the family itself was what was important.
The announcement was not made to anyone else for fear of having a ten year old mob boss making them an easier target. The assumption made by most is that Pharos is simply carrying out his father’s orders, and that he’s the one left in charge because his siblings have more the roles of enforcers. While Pharos does ask his father for advice on occasion, it is surprisingly little- he manages the major affairs of the mob almost entirely on his own cunning and insight. Not to mention that even though he’s tiny and appears rather frail, all of the members under him know better than to mess with Pharos.
