The Lorsoni Crime Family is a Corellian organised crime family, based primarily in Coronet City. A well-established organisation dating back centuries, the Lorsonis are a respected and feared institution, structured in the proper manner of organised criminals of the Corellian tradition. With a top-heavy organisational structure, atop which sits the families Eshro, the Lorsonis operate a large range of protection rackets, drug rings, gambling dens, unions, construction fixers and more besides. Beneath the Don sits a range of six Kapihan, each controlling a range of Soldier who run rackets and bring in money for the family.
Founded nearly three centuries ago by Han Lorsoni, as a collection of street gangs in the Corellian slums, the family grew slowly, through the manufacture and distribution of death sticks, the Lorsonis branched out through the application of extreme violence, taking out rival groups as they did so.
Before long the Lorsoni were one of the largest families in the city, and by the time Han Lorsoni had passed away at the tender age of 99, the family could count over 18% of the illegal activity of Coronet City under their belt. Following the traditions of the other families in the area, the Lorsonis passed the leadership of their operations down the male bloodline, and have continued to do so to this day.
Structure
Eshro
Sitting at the top of the family, the current Boss, Vinci Lorsoni is a man well into his eighties, and rumours persist that he has begun to lose his grip on sanity. Whilst none within the family speak of such matters, his wife, the formidably Espina Lorsoni, is considered to be the real power at the top of the family these days.
Eshro'suv
Second-in-command, the Underboss overseas most of the off-world operations for the family including their attempt to found a 'cadet branch' of the family on Coruscant infamous level 1313. The current underboss is the brother of Espina Lorsoni, and the first-ever non-Lorsoni family member to hold the position.
Kapihan
Numbering six in total, the Captains of the Lorsino family control areas of Coronet City with an iron fist, taking a slice of all the action that goes on in their neighbourhoods. Consisting of both of the Bosses brothers, as well as four of his sons, they are valued members of the family, violent, cruel, and criminal through and through.
Soldier
The 'made men' of the family, required to have committed a murder at the instruction of their Boss, there exist some twenty or so soldiers per Boss, although this number varies from time to time, and increases during times of inter-family conflict. Soldiers must be Corellian by birth and blood, and control rackets and operations on behalf of their bosses.
Intent
The Lorsoni crime family is a mafia group based in Coronet city and provides a backstory to the players expanding the families 'cadet branch' into level 1313 on Coruscant.
