- Background: The first and only ever Boss of Bosses; the life and death of the infamous Salvatore Maranzano is well known and documented throughout history. What is not well known is the hidden truth surrounding his death. After rising to power, only to be betrayed like a modern ceaser, Salvatore’s life did not end there. In truth, Maranzano and the Costa Nostra have deep ties to not only being mobsters, but a bizarre cult from Sicily. Many of the ancient rites brought over from the homeland where widely practiced and enforced by Salvatore during his reign. In truth Salvatore was a Giovanni ghoul; caught in the midst of a shadow war between his patron clan and the Lasombra. Ignorant to the true depth of his patron, Salvatore was unprepared to be betrayed by his closest friend, Charles “Lucky” Luciano who in truth was backed by the Lasonmbra to over through the Giovanni monopoly in New York. As Salvatore ruled as the King of New York, he was caught in the wake of this shadow war.
On September 10th 1931 Salvatore Maranzano was betrayed and killed. That is what the world knows anyways. His Ghoul blood kept him alive from the attack, but barely. With his death, the Giovanni stranglehold of New York was finally broken by the Lasombra and their allies. As a final insult to clan Giovanni, Salvatore was embraced in the final moments of his life. Not by a Giovanni, but by the Lasombra to take their influence from them. With Salvatore among their clan, came him his connections and deep influence. For his part, Maranzano quickly adapted into his new state of undeath quick to pick up right where left off. His sire Alfonso though, kept Salvatore’s desire to simply retake his throne in check. Alfonso took him under his wing to help show him and teach him the ways of the Lasombra and the Sabbat. Though Salvatore was forced to restrain his gumption, he was quick to adapt and learn from this new world. A Necormancer in life from the cult he was born into in Sicily, Salvatore spent his early years returning his studies and practices among the dark arts.
