A vaguely 1920s set mafia au with eldritch themeing.
New Veilana is a busy town that never seems to sleep, with a corrupt police department and a seedy underbelly there's no short of money passing through the back alleys. Business is booming and the city is far from the quiet small town on the bay it used to be, but... rumors have been spreading of darker forces at work. Weird things seen out of the corner of your eye and mysterious figures standing on the street corner under lamp light, even shadier dealings seem to be all the rage in the city's upper echelon.
Mafia's control territories and some in their desperation to get an advantage over their competitors have turned to less conventional means of securing power. Some may have even gotten more than they bargained for.
Meet The Crime Families
The Toscano's
Case file: 17734
Name: Vittorio Toscano
Known Aliases: Warlock, Lock
Status: Alive
Occupation: Museum Curator and Owner at the Veilana Museum of Natural History and head of the Toscano crime family
There is very little known about Vittorio himself other than he took over the crime business after the unexpected death of his uncle. The Toscano crime family itself controls the docking district, nothing gets shipped in or out without the family knowing. This makes them have very close ties to the other well known crime families in the area purely out of necessity and needing to stay on each other's good side. Their roots run deep in the city's shipwright union making them popular among the working class.
The Toscano crime family's contributions to New Veilana City cannot be understated, but rumors have begun to spread about more... occult dealings. Strange lights can be seen coming from the basement of the Toscano estate and Vittorio himself has seemed to become even more reclusive as of late. The biggest rumor being that he flew too close to the sun and invited something into our world that wasn't supposed to be known.
Case file: 17730
Name: Tarhos Kovรกcs
Known Aliases: The Knight, The Guard Dog
Status: ???
Occupation: Body Guard of Vittorio Toscano (uncertain)
There is even less known about the Toscano families prized bodyguard than the head of the estate himself and even more is left uncertain after his six-month disappearance. Ever since the bodyguard has shown his face in public again most have reported an overwhelming sense of unease when only being in his presence. Some have even claimed to see his skin move and shift like something is living underneath.
In private Vittorio knows exactly what happened. He's the cause of it after all. That loyal bodyguard died in an assassination attempt he was protecting the new head from, maybe it was grief or perhaps guilt that led Vittorio to do what he did, but he certainly got more than he was bargaining for. Yes Tarhos is well... alive? Sort of. A being claiming to be a God of War has taken up residence in his skin or part of the slumbering consciousness of said God.
Vittorio has promised to reawaken the God in return for protection and companionship. Tarhos is more than pleased with the current deal they have, he's loyal as long as it remains.
The Adams / The Silk Cradle
Case File: 18811
Name: Luanne Adams
Known Aliases: Mother Goose, Black Widow, Mother Hen
Status: ???
Occupation: Head of the Adams crime family, Owns and manages her primary Gentleman's Club: The Silk Cradle
Luanne has quite the colorful history. Many mysterious deaths of her husbands has not only lined her pockets, but landed her with quite a lot of power on her hands. She is the head of the small, but important Adams crime family, but most in her care just say they're a part of the silk cradle. Her family owns part of the entertainment district anything from bars, sex work to underground gambling are her specialty by trade. Those that work at the silk cradle are a tight knit group who protect their own.
The Silk Cradle itself is a popular spot for other crime families to meet seeing Luanne as a neutral figure in the constant turf wars that seem to never end. It's also a popular spot for the upper class members of society as it works as an open secret speak easy in the back. The police are paid off and any raids that do happen are known beforehand. Though she made have disappeared and laid low for a while, after making her debut back into the public light eight years ago there's something undeniably off about her. Maybe it's the way she never ages or her fast reflexes, but there's something not right about the widow.
Case file 18892
Name: Haruko Nakasone (belongs to @witchcraftandburialdirt)
Known Aliases: N/A
Status: Alive
Occupation: Jazz singer at the Silk Cradle, Apprentices under Vittorio in his studies into the occult
What led Haru to Luanne isn't entirely certain, but he is one of the most popular singers she employs. She pays well and the clientele aren't that bad. However one man always catches his eye when he comes in. Vittorio Toscano, a very important figure in his own right, but he seems to know about all the weird happenings as of late. Haru didn't get involved with him with malicious intentions at first, but... after seeing the ritual that summoned a piece of Tarhos's consciousness to their world first hand three years ago. There might be more to all of this that Vittorio isn't willing to explore.
For now, he's gotten quite close to the both of them in more ways than just platonic. No one really knows his exact goals, but no one can deny just how involved he's gotten in Vittorio's dealings as of late.
Notable Characters
There's a few other families that have their own territories and dealings, but as of right now these two families are the most important. However, there are a few extremely important background organizations or people who work independently.
The Legion
The Legion were once runners for various crime families, but due to an entity attaching itself to Julie they have developed a method to summon there creatures from beyond mosts comprehension. The method isn't kind or pretty and takes place at special events they host called "Masquerades". They kidnap the unfortunate off the street and torture them for the highest bidder leaving them nothing, but a soulless vessel for another entity to take over. They don't work for any crime family and will happily take anyone's money.
Robin
Belongs to @witchcraftandburialdirt
Case file: 1550
Name: Robin Baudelaire
Known Aliases: The White Fox
Status: Alive?
Occupation: Information broker
Robin is ground zero for why the barrier between the human world and the abyss go thin enough to let other beings cross over into our plane of existence. In his grief and continuous experiments with occult rituals he weakened the barrier enough for even gods to slip through while not summoning them himself. Him and the being he summoned, Abel, have a mutually beneficial relationship and now work as an information broker for the various families within the city itself.
Danny Johnson
Case file 16615
Name: Danny Johnson
Known Aliases: Jed Olsen
Status: ????
Occupation: News Radio Host / Journalist
News radio host by day and serial killer by night it's not entirely sure what his end goals are. He doesn't report on the more mysterious parts of the city, but instead on the "unknown killer" terrorizing the streets. His co-workers report a variety of odd behaviors coming from him, some even going as far to say he might not even be human, but whose really to say, but the man himself.
Sable Ward
Case file 14441
Name: Sable Ward
Known Aliases: N/A
Status: Alive
Occupation: Indie writer for a supernatural tabloid
If no one else will report about the strange rumors and weird lights, Sable Will and boy does she do a good job in it. Though that could be due to how she also dabbles in a little black magic here and there. While she may not know entirely what's going on, her small tabloid is gaining quite the underground audience. Sable worries this will paint a target on her back, but that isn't going to stop her.
Minor Characters
Just a few minor characters, they aren't too important to the over all happenings within the city, but do still live and operate there.
Aita Moon
No Case file exists on this bar tender, though he does work at the silk Cradle and does tattoo work in the back it is very under the table. He does his best to keep his head out of everyone's business, a job is a job and Luanne pays extremely generously.
Luka ????
No case file exists on Luka, but no one can deny his strange appearance. Perhaps that's why he works for the Toscano's as a supernatural consultant, to the outside world he might as well be dead, but he is happily living in secrecy and hanging out with Aita when the Silk Cradle is closed.
Paris Baker aka "Pearl"
Paris or as is more commonly known as Pearl is an "entertainer" at the Silk Cradle. Really all his job is is making sure the men stay longer by chatting with them and getting them to spend more on alcohol and he is extremely good at his job. So good in fact that he is the model for the paintings in advertisements and on the outside, he makes good money and has nothing to really complain about. Any incidents that do happen are swiftly "taken care of" by Luanne so really why would he ever leave.

Suguru never strayed from his path of righteousness. After trauma with Amanai mission, he focused on solving all kinds of things to suppress the bitterness of his technique to not end up going crazy. During his encounter with Mimiko and Nanako, he ended up heavily beating their abusers, and instead of killing them, he brought them to local fields of justice. He later moved away from his parents to Tokyo and adopted the Hasaba twins after obtaining information they had no relatives left. He grew up and graduated from TMCTC, where he eventually returned as a stand-up teacher ( stand-up so he won't has to use his technique much anymore ) alongside his friends. Just like Nanami - he found himself another part-time job as a ย body piercer.
- Geto consulted Yaga about the matter of 'trouble' techniques. The newly named Principal agreed to his proposal that students graced with unfortunate powers need a different / special approach and additionally to their training would fall under Geto's supervision where the main focus would be dedicated to finding a way how to better use their attributes and avoiding the severity of psychological traumas.

AU where Geto was not killed by Gojo. Instead, he was brought to Tech as a prisoner. Unexpecting events happened, sparking long roars and indecisiveness between Higher-ups ; several times Suguru saved the school & students from clear catastrophe. Half wished him to be executed immediately half wanted him to live and be used for whatever sake of Jujutsu affairs. Until decision about his fate is made, he cannot leave the school.
- after a difficult surgery, Suguru woke up with two bracelets attached to his left wrist and right ankle. The bracelets happen to be cursed seals that would execute him immediately within 5 seconds by releasing deadly poison into his skin if he used his technique or tried to trespass the border of school without permission.
- the bracelets can be removed only by Higher-up, the Principal, or another specially authorized person.
- from Shoko, he receives a prosthesis as a replacement for his missing right limb.
- gradually with time, he was allowed to move more freely and even briefly interact with students seeking supervision but never alone and only under the watch of other alumni.
More than twice he had an opportunity to escape, but he did not. Did Suguru really give up his extremist politics to improve and chose a different path? Or could there be some hidden motives behind his deliberate stay?
They sat upon the CEOโs desk, floor-length skirts spilling crimson across the table and floor. Within one hand was a long black - no sugar, as they imagined befitted such an uptight, dominant figure - and in the other, a takeaway cup of fragrant tea.ย
The building was quiet still, but that did not matter. There was only one person they would so patiently wait for, and they were almost certain he soon would arrive...ย
โGood, lets Neeko save Neeko โ s breath.โ Neeko let a long silence go on. She doesnโ t like it, but sheโs heard enough of these conversations to know silence is usually needed for a bit. Then she got hungry.
โ... Neeko is hungry, don โ t break anything.โ She says as she gets up and makes her way to the kitchen.

the dimly lit establishment is both luxurious and obnoxious in his opinion. their fall from grace has been long past now, yet at times darius still finds himself bothered by the change in scenario. yes, they have power still, perhaps far more power than they had in their prior positions given how stifled they were, and they can change the way the system works in different, subtler ways that at times are far more effective. but at times, reminders and circumstances manage to sour his mood so dearly no one but jericho himself ( and his brother; always his dear, reckless fool of a brother. heโs not around, not this time, entangled with his own work or one of his many affairs โ which is the case now, he doesnโt care to think about ) dares to approach him.
his first words to him have him scoffing, his glower likely having given him some sort of impression. it is not to say heโs wrong. certain business deals and certain silver-tongued lady partners of theirs could at times strike a strange chord in the man. he doesnโt find jealousy to be anything but unsightly, but at times the wolf-thing in his chest gets territorial, you see.
itโs almost as if it stronger than him.
still, despite his first reluctance, he unwinds the tightly coiled tension on his frame with a deep, deep sigh. eyes back the older of the two almost coyly for a moment, thenmerely shakes his head in what mimicks defeat.
