Ductus

Charles Luciano

• Clan: Tzimisce
• Position: Ductus
• Faction: Children of the Dracon (Dracul)
• Status: 2 (Positional), 5 (Reputational)
• Background: The life of Charles “Lucky” Luciano is known to men and immortal a life. The father of the Commission. The student of Arnold Rothstein. And the godfather of the greatest organized crime syndicate ever created. Charles was even a hero to the American people during World War two when he used his immense influence to make moves and sabotage the regime of Mussolini. Though deported to Italy by the US government, his influence as leader of the Commission never faltered until his death. Even if he had never become a vampire, his life alone had granted immortality in the words of history.

Charle’s life had caused many of the undead in Italy to become interested in embracing him. His immense influence and power of the commission would be of great use to any group of vampires. But it was the Italian Grimaldi who got to him first. On his death bed, Niccolo Grimaldi approached Charles with an offer. In exchange to his aid and influence, he would grant him eternal life. Not ready to die, Luciano quickly agreed to the offer and became one of the damned. In his first years of embrace Luciano remained in Italy learning at the mansions of the Grimaldi. Becoming a student of his new condition he quickly learned of his new clan’s history and of the Sabbat itself. Seeing now the shadows that pulled the strings of the world, Luciano wanted apply his own strategy he had learned in life to his condition now. For many years Charles traveled in Italy seeking out teachers to learn the ways of the Jyhad. Just as he had under Arnold Rothstein.

Eventually Luciano used his vast influence and pull to have his fellow allies among the commission embraced; including his oldest ally Meyer Lansky. It would not be for many years before Luciano would reveal his true influence he had been wielding to his own ends. Few know the truth of what became of Charles “Lucky” Luciano. After spending decades as the student, waiting to make his move, he finally returns to his true home of New York. Luciano was quick to discover his old rival of Maranzano still alive and picking up right where he left up as a mortal. It is in the shadows now that Luciano returns to New York, consolidating his own power to ready himself to make his next move in the Jyhad.

Pack Priest

Meyer Lansky

• Clan: Ventrue antitribu
• Position: Pack Priest
• Faction: Moderates (Marshal)
• Status: 3 (Positional), 5 (Reputational)
• Background: Less famous then Luciano, Rothstein, or Maranzano; Meyer Lansky is often forgotten when compared to the history and influence of them. In truth, Lansky was just as influential and important to the history of organized crime in New York City and indeed the world itself. Lansky had a hand in many of the casinos across the world and was right next to Luciano in the rise of the Commission. Though no one was every able to pin anything on him, Lansky had long since retired to Miami enjoying the fruits of his labors. On his death bed, dying of lung cancer his old friend Charles Luciano had sent someone to being him into the undeath he too was now enjoying.

Calling in favors he had earned and using his own influence, Charles Luciano arranged for his old friend to be embraced into the Sabbat. Brought into undeath, Meyer had many new questions. His sire explained what he had become and why he had been embraced. Meyer took this invitation to travel to Italy to see his old friend once more. Once he arrived, Meyer was greeted by Charles. Luciano quickly explained his plans and ambitions. Meyer was quick to join his old friend and pick back up where they had left off. Together to the two formed the Commission pack, named after their greatest accomplishment.

Tonight Meyer stands next to Luciano once more as they cultivate their plans and return once more to New York City. Meyer finds it ironic that it is Maranzano who once again stands in their way. Though they beat him once at his own game, and now they plan to do so once again. In this, Meyer sees even more opportunity for himself and his pack.
