(COMPLETE Revamp of my application, thank you for the feedback!) Name of Faction: The Mahri Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 5 (and still growing) Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Crime Family / Syndicate Ethnic Background: Palestinian Name of Character running the faction: Merikh Filler Your Discord #: S0dak1 Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:216184681 Your Server playtime: 2 days, 5 hours (I know its practically nothing, but I have experience running factions on other servers) Do you acknowledge and agree to all faction rules as detailed on the server rules page? Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? Yes What kind of roleplay will your faction bring to the server? The Mahri family brings a different type of RP. It’s not just a bunch of guys shooting for turf or trying to look flashy. This is a group rooted in culture and quiet control. On the surface, they run a small Palestinian café. You’ve got food, music, tea, prayer, and community. But behind that, they’re moving serious product. Cocaine shipments come in through family connections overseas and are moved through the city without making a mess. We’re aiming for deep, immersive RP. Cultural events, coded drop-offs, loyalty trials, and in-character consequences. There’s tension between the life they came from and the one they’re building now. They’re not loud about their business, but when the Mahri name comes up, people know it means something. How will your faction stay active and engaging? Regular café nights with real service, used as cover for deals and conversations Cultural events like street festivals to bring new people in and keep RP alive Shipment runs with ambush potential or police heat Loyalty missions for new members to prove themselves Storylines involving betrayal, loyalty, and internal family drama Sit-downs and no-gun meetings with other factions to build power through presence, not just violence There’s roles for everyone. Enforcers, fixers, frontmen, café staff, smugglers. We want it to feel alive, and like it actually functions. Organization Backstory: The Mahri family didn’t come to America to run drugs. They came because their home was taken from them. Their village in Palestine was leveled overnight with no warning and no mercy. Haroun Mahri packed up his family and fled. They landed in a beat-up neighborhood on the East Coast in 1979 with nothing but a prayer book, a family name, and the will to survive. They opened a café. It wasn’t much, just taboon bread, lentil soup, and strong mint tea served in chipped glasses. But it gave them purpose. It gave the neighborhood a place to gather. For a while, that was enough. Haroun worked sunrise to sunset, and his sons took whatever jobs they could get. Dock work, dishwashing, hauling crates at the market. Anything to keep the lights on. Then came the threats. Local gangs saw the café bringing in steady business and wanted a cut. Haroun refused. He didn’t run from tanks just to start paying street punks. That decision nearly killed him. One morning in 1985, he opened the back door and lost his leg to a pipe bomb. After that, his sons changed. They weren’t just boys helping their father anymore. They became something else. Merikh, the oldest, stepped up as the planner. Quiet and calculating, the kind of man who watches everything before making a move. Najim, his younger brother, was different. Louder, more emotional, but loyal as they come. He had no problem getting his hands dirty. They pushed back hard, and word spread fast that the Mahri family didn’t play around. They started protecting other immigrant businesses. First for free, then for a fee. Respect turned into power. Through cousins back in Jordan and Turkey, shipments started coming in. It started with cigarettes, then hash, then cocaine. The café stayed open, always clean and sacred, but the back room told a different story. They had rules. No drugs in their own community. No violence near the café. Loyalty over everything. You break those, you're gone. By 1989, the Mahri name meant more than just food and family. It meant protection. Power. Presence. Now they're in Liberty City. Not to start over. To take what’s theirs. "We don’t forgive. We preserve."1 point

Name of Faction: Velentzas Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 5, we will have more in the futurte. Others are interested in becoming part of this potential new faction Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Greek Name of Character running the faction: Apollo "Xenos" Velentzas Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): tessticklecrushr#2734 Your SteamID: 76561199389061309 Your Server playtime: 1 month, 4 days, 11 hours, and 7 minutes Do you acknowledge and agree to all faction rules as detailed on the server rules page? (Yes/No): Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? (Yes/No): Yes Provide an example of the unique Roleplay your faction will bring to the server/what type of roleplay we can expect from your faction (Images/Videos Preferred): I feel like an example of what will make this faction unique, is the fact that it is ethnically mediterranian just like all of the italian factions, but different. Different cultural aesthetic, paired with a different moral compass via culture, will contrast/pair well in it's own way. We aim to still be mafia geared, but we want to look differently, act differently, and carry ourselves differently. Greek culture prides itself on being very open and friendly, and we want to carry that into RP as well. Our motives are purely business oriented, with plenty of room for giggles and laughs hopefully to be shared with everyone and my friends. We just don't want to involve ourselves with the whole red vs blue direction the city currently seems to be going in. We just want to grind, make money, and make more friends along the way, while still having some thrill of being in a faction, no loyalties to anyone starting out. I'm not saying we eventually won't be allied to anyone, because eventually we'll be needing alliances, but we want to see how we can build bridges to everyone through RP (I already have some of those) and just overall see where this goes. It'll be refreshing for many people who want a break from being in other factions, (I know a few of those) and it'll be a breath of fresh air for those people, and myself included. I anticipate people wanting to get in a new faction simply because there is room for growth immediately, and they also would want to contribute to it's wellbeing, as I have made friendships with a multitude of people ic, and ooc, from almost every faction. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): I can think of a few things, such as a makeshift olympics like ancient greeks used to hold. We will encourage everyone to attend in city. Which will entail boxing, wrestling, atlas stone carries, and maybe powerlifitng meets via makeshift gym dupe. These are all ideas we've had. I wanted to see if this faction application will get accepted first before we commit time to making the dupes and whatnot. Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): The Velentzas Crime Family, having originated in Greece and operated out of Greece since the early 50's and 60's, sought to create a sister sect of their business in the United States in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. They wanted to do this, to follow their mediterrianian counter parts such as the sicilians, and italians did, as the Greeks also had a significant hand in their successes in their respective old countries. They heard of their successes in the new country and it sparked a new wave of ideas for the Velentzas Crime Family. With increased attention from greek law enforcement, and greek government agencies alike, they sought a new beginning and possibly a permenant solution to their problems back in the old country. Before they made this very risky move, the Greek Don's and other executives of the greek crime families, came to the unanimous descision to send someone they knew could be trusted with the task of creating a landing pad in preparation for the migration of their criminal enterprises, and being closer to their allies, who had money, power, and easy business. That someone happened to be a respected and trusted cousin of the Velentzas Don, Apollo. His role in the family before this consideration, was merely organizing crews and being a friendly face/peacekeeper with the other organized crime families located back in the old country. His ability to read people, his perception, his bravery, and his diplomatic approaches to hairy situations, has proven to others that if there is anyone fit to get a feel for the massive hostile and bustling city of New York, it was him. He accepted this challenge as he understood that it meant the future for his way of life, and his families way of life with no hesitation. Organizing a crew, he slowly sent people to the United States to start getting settled in, as well as to get a feel for what the crime environment was like compared to back home. As from here on out, it was up to him to provide a safe haven for those he cared about and understood back home.0 points
