  1. Sammy took his time in answering. His mind raced with a variety of thoughts.

    'This guy is getting a little too close for comfort. I wanted attention from the mob, not some well to do industruial bigwig! How am I going to get out of this?' Sammy picked up his drink, and used it to cover his search around the casino for a way out of the present situation. Failing to hide his growing unease, Sammy lowered his glass and looked directly at Dorian.

    "I am no fool, Mr. Magnus, just new to town. It's always good to let the competition know you're in town before you start working," Sammy says as he unconciously places his hand on the black backpack by his side. the gesture was easily seen by Dorian. "You of all people understand, don't you? As for luck, well Lady Fortune has always been on my side. Oh, I agree about skill and preparation being important, but for me, Mr. Magnus, Lady Fortune is always on my side. She brought me to you, didn't she?"

    Sammy smiled as he saw the Manager set up his money over by the craps table. "It seems that they have my money ready, Mr. Magnus," he says as he finishes off the drink in one gulp. "I had better pick up my money and move on before they get the idea that they can short change me."

    Sammy stood and picked up his bag. "I'll let you in on a little secret, Mr. Magnus," Sammy says as he leans in to speak quietly into the man's ear. "For them to put me on a strecther, they'd have to first be able to catch a ghost." Sammy pulled back, his smile back in place. He bowed to the woman by Dorian and then to the bodyguard before moving to the craps table.

  4. After my current game I'm going to focus almost exclusively on the Southside, pending any extraordinary circumstances. If any of your characters will be around that neighbourhood and you have an idea for a story (or want to collaborate on one) send me a PM.

    MCBE, if your character is getting involved in organized crime then we might have to mix it up. :twisted: Let me know if you have any plans and we'll try to get something going. I'm thinking we're due for a major battle royale.

    Oh I plan on having The Ghost all up in South Freedom. Since your hero has alreay made an appearance on the Boardwalk, you can sure bet we'll meet up. Right now, I plan on trying to flesh out the Mob in the city, mostly in the south of course!

    It should be fun to mix things up. Let me know when you are finished and you can bust up one of my crimes. :)

  7. 'Dorian....Dorian Magnus,' Sammy thought to himself, trying to remember where he had heard the name before. The sight of Stacy, causes Sammy to lose his traing of thought for a moment.

    "I'll have a long island," Sammy says as he starts to get the impression that something strange is going on here. He notes the guards and he frowns slightly, wondering what Dorian wanted with him.

    It isn't until the question comes out in the open, that Sammy knows he's in trouble. "Uh, trick? What trick would you be refering to, Mr. Magnus." Sammy's eyes shift from side to side. already looking to see how to escape the present situation. Something about the very rich man unnerved him greatly.

    'Rich man......Dorian Magnus....' Sammy's eyes widen as he realized finally where he heard the name before. He had read about Dorian Magnus, the driving force behind Vulcan Technologies. Sammy's nervousness disappeared as he realized just who he was talking to. "Are you the Dorian Magnus of Vulcan Technologies?"

  10. Dorian moved around to the man as he saw the floor manager's face darken when the stranger asked for his money. He imagined that he would be taken into a back room and beaten within an inch of his life. Dorian reached the man's shoulder and clapped his hand on his shoulder.

    "Just a moment sir," Dorian said in mock earnest. "That was quite a spectacular win. Why don't you celebrate a moment. I have some fine Whiskey back at my table." He turned to the Floor manager. "I'll cover the sum of his bet until he returns to collect." He turns back the the man awaiting his answer.

    Sammy looked up at the finely dressed man standing over his shoulder. The guy didn't seem like one of the planted ssecurity guys in the casino, but this was a new town. They could do things like that, but Sammy mentally shrugged. Lady fortune wouldn't play him like that. 'What the heck, I've got nothing to lose.'

    Sammy smiled up at Dorian. "Sure. Why not? It's going to be a while for them to get my money together so I might as well enjoy a nice drink." Dorian hear the smooth words come out and knew that this was someone that knew how to lie.

    As Sammy stood, it gave Dorian a chance to get a better look at the man. Sammy stood about 5'10" with a very plain looka bout him. He wasn't fat but there really wasn't much muscle on him either. His clothes were fairly basic, jeans and a decent shirt, but nothing name brand. In fact, the small black backpack by his side gave Dorian the impreson that he had just arrived in the city.

    Sammy held out his hand in greeting. "Name's Sammy. Sammy Cosentino. Nice to meet you," he said, never letting his smile fade from his face. Sammy looke Dorian up and down trying to size up the man, but he didn't have the aura of someone in the business. 'Wonder what his interest in me is?'
