Port Haven, NY @porthavengv - Tumblr Blog

WELCOME TO PORT HAVEN, NEW HAVEN

Port Haven, New York is a charming town with a population of 81,394. Port Haven is best known for having one of the largest and most talented trauma units in all of New York. A spot at Port Haven’s Mercy General means being the best of the best. The doctors that work there have been recruited from all over the face of the earth. While they come from near and far there are also a lot of talented doctors from Port Haven itself.

While Port Haven is bustling with people just trying to make it through the day. It, like most towns in America, has its own DARK SECRETS. Port Haven’s crime rates run high due to the two criminal organizations that the local police haven’t been able to eliminate. The Cassarino and the Lucchese family have been rivals for decades and while both families have been taken over by their second in commands due to the untimely deaths of their leaders - their hatred runs deeper than ever.

Now you just have to decide if you’re going to be saving the day or running from the law.

This is a group verse town set in the fictional town of Port Haven and surrounded by a lot of angst, blood, and drama. Here at Port Haven, we strive to be a welcoming roleplay environment where we hope that all our writers develop and push themselves (and one another off cliffs). There will be small plot drops to encourage writing, but we encourage plotting amongst yourselves in the discord server!

The Moretti Family- Run drugs, arms, and currently own the docks. They originally ran Port Haven until the Zaccaro came into town and challenged their authority. Slowly they’ve pushed into their territory and made it clear that a war is coming. The Moretti’s are known for being a very ruthless organization and its surprising that they have not retaliated against the death of their leader.

The Zaccaro Family - Came to Port Haven on a whim after the head of the family suggested opening a Hotel/Casino in town. It has been a risk but one that has paid off greatly. The death of their boss, however, has them struggling. They have yet to pick a new second in command and are considering dabbling in running guns and drugs. The drugs would increase tension between the already rivaling families but what else do

RULES:

IC drama is allowed, but not OOC. I feel like we can all be adults.

As much as this is a crime based GV, I’d like us to focus heavily on the medical and law side of things as well! (maybe your character is a doctor being blackmailed.) That being said all occupations are welcome.

The Gossip Blog is a character that can be applied for and if we talk about it you can run the blog with/for me.

Once accepted an admin will IM you the link to the discord server, track the tag, and write a short bio.

Duplicate FCs are allowed but must be approved by the first face claim.

This group verse is open to Canon and OC characters from any verse.

Bios Required - before you write them; if you want to plot things out with other characters please feel free to do so, but that is not required.

Your character can be neutral, the law, or a member of one of the two warring mobs.

Be as active as you want! I’m really just in this to join a bunch of us together and enjoy a good time! I’m not crazy about enforcing activity I just ask that we all put in our best effort!

discord- there will be a discord for the verse so that we can all plot and talk. Announcements will also be posted there.

B A S I C S:

NAME: Joanna ‘Jo’ Zaccro AGE; 32 PERSONALITY; Sharp tongue, reckless, sarcastic, loyal, adrenaline junkie, fighter, flirt. OCCUPATION: Mob Boss || Owner of The Vault (bar&lounge)

B I O G R A P H Y:

Joanna ‘Jo’ Zaccoro had never wanted this life. In fact, she had run from it every way possible. She had spent all of her father’s money on drugs, alcohol and partying. She had even totaled her father’s favorite car after getting caught sleeping with one of his bodyguards.

None of that had kept her out of the life.

Maybe the reason she had tried so hard to run was that she was in fear that her father’s psychotic behavior was going to rub off on her. Her older brother had never been in the picture much and by the time he had turned eighteen he had left completely.

Leaving the young girl to deal with their father’s wrath alone.

It wasn’t long before Jo had started dipping her toes into the water. Small jobs at first. the ones that she hadn’t needed to do much work for. Then when her father made the move to Port Haven, Jo followed.

The black '67 dodge charger had slowed to a crawl on the dirt road. The hot New York heat beating down on her face. A sharp curse leaving her lips. The car as her baby but sometimes it was a pain in her ass. Her car breaking down before being able to surprise her father of her arrival had never been a part of her plan.

Who would have thought her breaking down on the side of the road would lead to years of chaos and countless close calls. While Jo doesn’t admit it often her ex-had been the only good thing to come out of her car breaking down. The two of them, while on different sides had clicked right away. Jo almost thought she could leave it all. Walk away and live the life she had always wanted.

She had been wrong.

Anthony had tried to kill the one person who didn’t look at Jo like she was a monster. Her father’s actions had caused Jo to cut her ex out of her life completely. It was better this way. She would have rather him be alive and out of her life. Then dead because she was selfish and tried to keep him in it.

Are you deranged like me? Are you strange like me?

“This is my life. This is what I was born into and every time I try to change it someone ends up dying or getting hurt…and I’m done with that so this is me accepting..no, this is me embracing my fate…So, you got me..you finally got what you wanted…this is me sitting at your feet.”

The half-empty glass of whiskey flew out of her hand and crashed into the wall. Jo’s eyes were ablaze as she took a step towards her father. For the first time in a long time, she saw a flash of emotion on his face.

“Are you happy?” She questioned blue eyes wide. “This isn’t what you wanted? Except I’m not him, I’m not your perfect son! Where is he, huh? He got out of Statesville, 3 years ago and has yet to be seen. I’ve done everything! Everything you wanted and yet you still fucking praise him.”

The man’s silence had caused Jo to turn on her heels and walk out of their house. Jo and Anthony had never gotten along - in fact they often but heads and when Jo was younger the man had been terrible to her due to the love that Maria, her mother, had given her. Maria had spent countless hours with the young girl teaching her how to play the piano, ballet, how to cook. It had been a Tuesday evening when her father had gone off the deep end and shot and killed his mother right in front of her. Jo could still hear the ringing in her ears from the gunshots.

His death, later on, would plant her in the position of head of the family.

A title which would have gone to her brother had he cared enough to be in the picture. Jo doesn’t allow the fact that she’s a woman to stop her from hitting anyone who attacks them right back. She also refuses to sit back and allow her hands to stay clean. Jo’s willingness to get her hands bloody had been something that her father had been proud of.

Pointing fingers cause you’ll never take the blame like me?

Black painted fingernails tapped against the office desk. The Vault was closed for a few more hours and Jo was using the time to regroup.

“I don’t fucking care what you have to do.” Jo’s eyes narrowed on the man seated in the black leather chair in front of her. His hands lightly grasp the arms of the chair as he listened to her. “You find me something, anything that proves the Moretti’s planted that car bomb.“

There was no proof that they had been involved but she knew she needed to make a stand soon and fast if she was going to show that she wasn’t to be messed with.

C O N N E C T I O N S:

______ Zaccaro: Jo’s older brother. _____ and Jo have a very rocky relationship. Jo is angry that he left her abandoned her long ago and left her with their father. What he has been up to is up to the player. She doesn’t have much contact with him and having him back now would both hurt and help her. She could use someone to lean on when things get rocky.

Her second in command.

Her bodyguard.

Ex-boyfriend. - I see him as either a Moretti loyalist or a cop. You get to choose.

Also, connections for people who work at The Vault could always be needed.

As we form them I’ll add them onto here.
