Human in town au
A story about Rain Halo, an ex-human who had his whole life taken away by the Saints corporation* and was 'sold off' to Matthew Rosario* as he was the one that paid and assigned for Rain to be turned into a toon.
Being turned into a toon is the lowest society status you could have due to humans using them as spies, bait or for labour work, since there are no laws protecting them. Many of them get killed by the law, despite the civil war in 1959 being over years ago.
During Benedetto's ambush at one of Matthew's warehouses, Rain unfortunately became apart of it, since one of Benedetto's men had found him hiding in Matthew's office. They decided to spare him, thinking he could be a great catch to interrogate. After many questions and yelling, Rain didn't answer anything; he didn't have anything to answer. He absolutely didn't know who even Matthew was. Coming to the conclusion that Rain wasn't a Rosario, they decided to keep him after seeing his potential. But that was two years ago.
*Corporation, which makes humans into Angel toons for the purpose of selling them for their halos and wings.
*Matthew Rosario is a mafia boss, owning a large territory of Hale Halos. It's basically a farm to him, because of the population.
The Stein family
The Stein family is one of the most powerful Mafia gangs in the Toon world, owning almost more than half of Toon Town (a city). The mafia boss is Bendy 'Benedetto' Stein, the right-hand man is Sammy Lawrence, the capos are Katie M'Lady, Marcus Bianchi, Boris Stein, the main assassin Rain Halo, and the soldiers reaching around eighty-nine people.
There is no underboss, because Bendy doesn't want the mafia to be passed down to anyone. He doesn't want anyone to suffer the things he did.
Characters:
Rain Halo
★†~"I promise to repay you, sir."~†★
The heart of the mafia, the mafia's main assassin, whatever title you want. His role is to assasinate anyone crossing Benedetto's path, rules or patience, while also helping Benedetto choose the right path and his impulsiveness to not crumble anything up. He also partakes in most ambushes and as 'just in case' for any scenarios. He's more experienced in guns and sweet talk, than fist fights and rough talk.
Nobody exactly knows where Rain came from or who were his parents/ creators, but he's apart of the family, and they care for family.
Benedetto ~/////~ Stein
♪°•"This'll cost ya' both eyes, buddy."•°♪
The brain. The Don with the capital 'D'. Years of anger and calculated vengeance into one person. Extremely good at what he does, but impulsiveness and his hot-headedness makes him an easy target for insults and rough talk. His short-temper gets him far, but the lack of love or sincere caring he receives because of it t(ook)akes a toll on him each day.
As much as he thrives in everyone fearing him and obeying him, he wishes for the simpler times, before Joey, before the mafia.
If it wasn't for Joey, Benedetto wouldn't exist (not in a literal way)
Boris Stein
°♪≈"You've got a smart mouth on yra, pal."≈♪°
The brawn, the underboss. Being 6'8 has its perks; you're harder to defeat, more intimidating, but can't exactly feel comfortable in every room. He's great at getting people to tell him anything, despite his calm attitude, but won't be afraid to beat it out of you either.
Faced the least amount of abuse and pain from Joey, thus not getting the highest status in the hierarchy (Says he wasn't ready). And also because he's younger, which makes him the underboss.
Samuel 'Sammy' Lawrence
~"I see before anyone does, I notice before anyone else does."~
Extremely important and invaluable to the Drew Stein family. He was there from the start, even before Bendy was even born. You'd think he would retire, but he's not ready to give it up. Give up everything he built. Though, Bendy sees Sammy as more of a father figure than his actual right-hand man.
Had also fallen victim to the Saints Corporation.* One of the first few who made it out alive. Has survivor's guilt, mainly for his one and only. He misses his Susan. Even after all these years.
Katie M'lady
◇"Always look for the light, kiddo."◇
Also the first members of the family, having seen Bendy and Boris grow up, having seen Joey's fall, probably having seen the first cartoon drawn. Being a toon means you can forget the concept of time — you'll never age! At least not physically. She's the best strategist in the mafia, she's extremely skilled in hand-to-hand combat and she's also an extremely good parent. She enjoys what she does and doesn't regret anything.
Is extremely ruthless and also wise, short-tempered and patient, kind and aggressive — a bundle of what makes her her.
Cinnamon the Ferret
♡~ "My mother's love was what made this bakery thrive." ~♡
Cinnamon owns a bakery in the centre of town, a generational business passed down to her. Though, she found out too late that her parents were in deep debts with the Stein family, leaving her to work twice as hard to pay everything in time.
Besides her unavoidable anxiety, she's extremely kind-hearted, wouldn't hurt a fly. She takes priority in keeping a good name for her baked goods and her family's name.
