Hinckley Posted August 9, 2011 Welcome to Baritones 3. Thanks to everyone for agreeing to play this game. I hope we all have a lot of fun. Role PMs have been sent out. Please use the avatar in your role PM as your PM or post it in your sig for the duration of the game. Posting your character name in your sig will help too. Please post your willingness to perform your role in this thread. Once everyone has confirmed, Day One can begin. Ivan had lived in Moonlight for a very long time. He had loved and lost here and he was determined to keep the city thriving. He had lost his wife, his sister-in-law and many friends over the years, but that wouldn't stop him from living the American dream right here in Moonlight. The town, for some reason, was a draw for gangsters and mafia families. The Baritones crime syndicate had terrorized the town for years until Ivan almost single-handedly stopped them. In September of 2008, Ivan and a small group of friends had stopped The Baritones from bulldozing the town and replacing it with casinos and strip clubs. They lost many innocent citizens of Moonlight along the way, including Ivan's beautiful wife, Florence. He would never love again... Shortly thereafter, in January of 2009, Iris Baritone returned and rallied the family into a hostile takeover of the town. Ivan went undercover and single-handedly murdered every last Baritone. Well, there was some help along the way, but since he's the only survivor, he tells it however he wants. Unfortunately for Moonlight, two well-televised and infamous Mafia wars made people wary of moving there. A few people returned in 2009, but it wasn't until Ivan started contacting family and friends back home in Mother Russia, that the town began to flourish again. With the promise of a prosperous community where they could pursue the American dream, Ivan's relatives and other relations came and re-populated the town. Two years after finding a way to make Moonlight a successful city again, Ivan was meeting at his own deli with his old friend, Agent Sky. Agent Sky had first come to Moonlight in 2008 on the trail of a deadly serial arsonist. Agent Sky had fallen in love with Ivan's sister-in-law, Darlene (who consequently went to jail soon after they were married for murdering a garbage man named Pete. She also murdered the arsonist Sky had been chasing, but they sent her to jail anyway...) who was murdered by Iris Baritone after the two escaped from prison. "Ivan, old friend," Agent Sky said, "It's been a very long time since those awful incidents took our loved ones from us." "The words you speak are truth," Ivan agreed, "Such a very, very long time, indeed." "Ivan, there's trouble." Agent Sky warned. "Oh?" Ivan asked, "What is this troubles?" "Well," Agent Sky wasn't sure how to word it, "In your great efforts to bring a thriving population to this town, some riff-raff snuck in." "What this does mean, snuck?" Ivan asked, "I do not know this word. And what riff-raff? My family? My family are riff-raff?" "Calm down Ivan," Agent Sky told him, "It's not your family, I'm sure. But, for whatever reason, we're tracking a huge Russian Mafia cell right here in Moonlight. They're very corrupt, very dangerous." "Your words, they are cutting me like as a knife," Ivan cried, "What you say is not possible. They are a good life living here, honest people. I know them. This is impossible what you say." "Ivan," Agent Sky said calmly, "The danger is very real, and it's growing all the time. The Russian Mafia has been recruiting citizens here at an alarming rate. The crime rate is very high and citizens, once again, are leaving this town. It's all around you. You must see it! And they're getting harder to track, Ivan. Our agents have lost track of some of the goons they were following. One has become almost completely undetect..." "Enough! You must leave now," Ivan said, "You are coming back later. You are my friend, but I cannot listen to this right now." "It's very important," Agent Sky said calmly as he stood, "It's extremely possible that there's more than..." "Enough! I said this time and I have said before. I do not have to saying it again!" Ivan cried, "Please leave." Ivan shook his head as Agent Sky left the deli. He knew what his friend was saying was true, but it was so hard to hear. How could this all be happening again after all the work he had done to clean this town up? Ivan's thoughts were interrupted by the squealing of tires, followed by an awful sound. Ratatatatatatatatat!!!!!! Ivan rushed outside to find his dear friend dead on the sidewalk. Clearly the target of the attack, Agent Sky lay facedown in a pool of blood. Some bystanders had been caught in the crossfire, but one of them was just a megablocking mime, so...whatever. Ivan's friends Steve and The Cross-Dressing Construction Man, who owned the Brazilian Steakhouse next door, came rushing out to see what had happened. The three friends wept over the loss of Agent Sky. "It is true what he had said," Ivan cried, "It is the Mafia is doing. We must stop this. We have done it before. The three of us can doing it again." The three friends held hands. They knew what they had to do. It wasn't going to be easy and they would probably lose more friends and family members, but the mafia would not win this one. No way in hell. The mime was pantomiming that he needed help, but nobody cared and he eventually bled to death. Shortly thereafter, all the collectible minifigures left town in their carriages, convertibles, campers and recycling trucks, because that's what I could find quickly in order to get this thread up and the game moving! ____________________ The Rules: Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the Town or the Scum.

Zepher Posted August 9, 2011 Petr, he is here, and he is hoping that some of his family has learned this new language so that not everyone speaks with Russian accent. Would be very tiring to hear all game, no? He is also sad that Agent Sky is dead. He thinks that maybe if someone lives through Mafia, they should not be killed later. Is not fair to them, he says. He feels guilty when it happens sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inconspicuous Posted August 9, 2011 Hello friends! I'm Elena and I teach at Moonlight University. I specialize in Post-Neo-Classical-Modern-Renaissance literature, although I'm know to occasionally hollow out books to smuggle vodka.

Waterbrick Down Posted August 9, 2011 Police Officer Donil reporting. What devilish work is this? I left the motherland because I believed that here, true justice may be upheld, but now the face of that justice lies face down in its own blood. My fellow citizens we must band together to wipe clean our community from this wave of violence and corruption and see the perpetrators of this crime to their rightful punishment.

Hinckley Posted August 9, 2011 Wow you guys are confirming with lightning speed. Considering everyone will confirm soon, I won't be able to get Day One up until after work tomorrow, so in about 16 hours from the time of this post. And yes, Agent Sky is dead. Sorry. There's got to be some sort of stake in these games. Agent Sky was taken out to show that the threat is real. There are three other canon characters left...with targets on them. Better play well or you may lose another one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brickdoctor Posted August 9, 2011 Well, the increasing crime rates have made a lot of properties a lot more affordable unfortunately. This isn't the best time to be in the real estate business as you can imagine... Unfortunately so. The same goes for the pawn shop business. Many of the residents who left town decided to sell what they couldn't take. I, in my benevolence, have bought what I can, but not even a Pawn Star as seen on TV could sell all this stuff.

Shadows Posted August 9, 2011 As bad as this all is, there's never been a better time to buy booze. Hi everyone! I'm Stanislav, manager of the world famous Hinckley Brewery, though I haven't a megablocking clue who this Hinckley is. Whatever the case, we brew the fruitiest and most delicious beer in the world (so sayeth the mysterious Hinckley), as well as distribute many of your favourites from around the world, especially the motherland. *produces a case of Vodka* That should put a smile on your faces, even in this trying time. Now, after a bit of liquid refreshment, let's all prepare to get to the business at hand and stamp out these monsters. I still haven't forgiven you for killing Darlene. At least Ivan is still kicking. Better stay that way, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
