Affluent beyond imagination, Clan Giovanni traces its roots back to before the Renaissance, to a family of merchant princes. The clan still maintains its original home in Venice, in a thousand-year-old ''loggia'' just outside the heart of the city. No other clan makes such a spectacle of humility and propriety as does the Giovanni. And no other clan hides its blasphemous secrets so well. |

− | + | Much like the modern mafia the Giovanni is a criminal organization unto themselves. The clan deals in almost every facet of crime, local, national even international. The Giovanni loyalty is to their family first, going against the family is punishable by death, and given their ability, with necromancy, even death is not an escape. | |
+ | <br> | ||
+ | The Giovanni watch prospective family members for embrace. While they might look 'young' they have usually done a few decades as a ghoul to earn the embrace. Giovanni don't embrace you because your cute, or your related to uncle Eddie. A human family member is not even told the vampiric secret of the family until they have been selected to be ghouled. Most Giovanni go through life thinking they are a Mafia family. | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | Unlike most clan's the Giovanni haven been under the direct control of their founder Augustus since he took power. These nights he rules through the Anziani who are (for our game) based in Las Vegas. The structure of the clan for our game is set up with a single Giovanni in charge of their city of residence Escondido. The Don/Donna oversees the city of Escondido, handles issues that might arise between the Camarilla and the Giovanni and makes sure the Promise of 1528 is adhered to. They help set up new Giovanni with the lay of the land, information on who is who and what is expected of new Giovanni. | ||

+ | ==RP Notes== | ||
+ | We understand the rp of most of clan Giovanni's powers are disturbing to most non-Giovanni. The reputation of the clan is shocking and to most non-Giovanni horrendous and twisted. Some rituals require bizarre sexual acts and mutilation and murder, as such these rituals are not rp'd out most notably the ''Rape of Persephone'' is never rp'd out on the game. Instead of you wish to use this ritual to lower your difficulty you add to your job submission to staff that you have this ritual and it will be performed off camera for the bonus. | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | The reputation of Clan Giovanni also includes many references to inbreeding and Incest, the latter will not be supported on this game. If a player is caught engaging in such rp they face punishment ranging from 72 hours in the freezer, losing the pc, up to a possible ban. Including such information in your background is acceptable as it is part of the clan, we prefer that this is not made a center point of your rp. | ||

− | + | Hailing from beautiful Italy, the Giovanni were merchants long before they were Necromancers. Now the Clan has members around the globe, working as go-betweens and independent contractors for many other Vampires. Due the Agreement, a contract of non-aggression forged with the Camarilla centuries ago, the Clan has managed to keep itself safe from many Sect wars. | |
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Some whisper of their horrid traffic with the dead, while others gossip about twisted incest within the family. Nobody can deny their wealth, or their influence in the world, nor their skill at getting things done. While they were once heavily affiliated with the Mafia, they have pulled almost all support from it in past decades, due to it becoming far too open and known. They still deal with the underworld (Both with a lowercase and capital U), though they tend to be more subtle about it these days. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Always there with a smile and a deal to be made, the Giovanni are both respected and feared by any Vampire with the wits to know what is best for them. | ||
