Romany/Mafia
Information detailed here is for OOC uses only.
Overview
Roma Mafia As with every culture even the Roma have their own seedy underbelly of society, for them it is the Roma Mafia. A organization set upon the path of shadows through the verse, They work in several things and keep their fingers in many a pie as well as seek to hold several gadje and roma alike within their pockets. Existing outside the normal bounds of the Roma culture this group does not answer to the Kris or the Prince in matters, They answer to the Capo Crimni and his/her underboss(s).
At times the Roma council of elders known as the Kris may call upon the Mafia though in the end it is for them to decide wether or not they will lend aid depending on the situation and what all surrounds it. Those Roma who choose the path of shadows as some might refer to it are rather secretive in what their connection is even amongst other Roma as it is a secretive group that does not enjoy outsiders be they gadje or roma alike meddling in their affairs unless they find it to be potentially profitable or have some other reason for it.
