Not too well. Although, the fact that we only deal in gun selling bothers me. We could find plenty of funds in gambling.

You might think this is a bit over the top, but I somewhat liked it. After all, Rome and Juliet also had the prince of Verona ;)

Name: William Falstaff
Age: 38
Family Alliance: None/both
Family Stance(what's your relation?): just an opportunist, switching his allegiances back and forth
Occupation (Try to keep this within the family business): mayor of Woodviolet
Items/Weapons: he has a very small hand revolver, but he can't aim at all.
Personality: a cold, machiavellist man without remorse. He has a few soft spots for some people (such as his secretary Rose), but tends to see humans as resources rather than as living people. William considers manipulation as an art, rather than a sin. In public, however, he is seen as deeply charming, he is a very skilled orator and he has a superb feeling for the finer political subtleties.
Biography(Optional):

William was the brilliant young man who had it all...except the occasional bit of luck. Born into an upper middle-class family, William enjoyed a decent upbringing. After a brilliant education at Yale in economics and political sciences, he ran for the US Senate, aiming to become one of the youngest senators ever. His campaign was well received, but in the end he was defeated by an older senator, who had received a big bribe to finance his own campaign (and outrun William's). Not wanting to be disappointed, he ran for governor of the state Woodville is situated in, only to suffer an embarrasing defeat after wasting most of his private money on the campaign.

He disappeared for three years without notifying anyone. Most thought him gone forever until he came back only a few months before local elections. He ran for the office of mayor as an independent candidate and soon proved to be the revelation of the hour. His campaign was heavily focused on economising where it wouldn't hurt, urban development and especially crime, drugs and corruption fighting. His proposal to streamline the civil departments met with wide approval. What convinced most townpeople however were his covert remarks in most speeches to end the feud that controlled the entire town. He was elected by a very wide margin.

Now, two years later William is still in office. He carried out a large part of his plan with a lot of approval from the local population. But on the other hand, William has given both families a free rein in their business. He only wants the occasional bribe or urban development project and he continues to stress the fact that most of their activities should remain more or less covert and that not too many innocent victims should be made. On the other hand he goes very far to restrain the law from involving themselves into family affairs and he tries to stand up to any meddling from higher (federal) authorities. In general, the corrupt mayor does his very best to ensure that a future with him is marginally better than a future without him.
Appearance: 180 cm high, rather slim, black hair that starts to grey, deep blue eyes, most of the times dressed in suits.

But the Prince of Verona wasn't an opportunist. He wanted the fighting to stop, especially after Mercutio was killed. Approved, but you may need to make a profile for Rose later on.
