Quiet and mysterious. Two characteristics used to classify the group, by the exceptionally limited number of people granted the unique opportunity of acknowledging the Clandestine's existence. The family is composed of those from every walk of life. Our connections are limitless, and the plausibility of you achieving to recognize this is slim to none. We’re under your nose consistently throughout every moment of your day to day life, and you very well may never know it. Upon going through the repetitive process of gangs dissolving beneath his feet one after the other, Daniel Corsetti decided taking his abundance of ill-gotten gains and settling down might be his best option. That was up until he received an anonymous phone call. Word had gotten out that once again, Daniel was a free agent in the criminal world. However, this call was...different? It was Daniel's father. A father he hadn’t heard from since he was sent to a foster home as a young boy. Daniel met with him, having only to realize after some conversation, unknowingly his father was around all of his life protecting him from the shadows. He was working along side an enigmatic group named The Clandestine, as The Don of Liberty City. Given Daniel's profound reputation, the Clandestine produced an offer too tempting to resist. If and when the offer is accepted, Daniel would become The Don of San Andreas in an attempt to push the Clandestine's arms and narcotics business Westward. Money is the fuel for choices. It provides you the resources necessary to reach the top. With this in mind, Clandestine took it’s starting funds and invested it toward buying legal assets such as Vangelico Jewelry, and every beach fanatics favorite dine in spot, Pearls restaurant. These locations, perceived by the public as legitimate businesses, will be used to create a steady source of income for the family. They will also stand as an efficient way to conceal the origin of our ill-gotten gains by passing out filthy lucre through complex sequences of commercial transactions. A percentage of what we gain will be passed off onto our Eastern companions, as well as stored into until we can assemble enough capital to invest into buying a nightclub. - Trust your brothers. Those who do not trust enough will not be trusted. Trust is the single most important factor of our family. Everyone must trust each other, as trust is the foundation for any relationship. Without it, a relationship will begin to decay and eventually fail. - Value secrecy. A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know. It is optimal that under any and every circumstance we must keep the family a secret from outsiders. They may have their suspicions, however, we must never give an outsider information involving who we are, and where we came from. This is for our personal safety and survival. Secrecy allows us to roam the world as free men and women. - Have courtesy. Politeness costs nothing and gains everything, give the people what they want and they'll reciprocate, put on a smile and act as just as though you’re just another one of the many faces in a large crowd of nobody's. - Be impartial. It is wisest to be impartial. If you have health, but are attached to it, you will always be afraid of losing it. And if you fear that loss, but become ill, you will suffer. Why not remain forever joyful in the self? - Remain diligent. Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth. The more work you put in, the more you will reap in rewards. The Don The Don must stand as a firm leading figure, as he or she is the largest representative of the Clandestine in their selected regions. The Don takes advisory from his small council, better known as Higher and Lower Command of the Family. The Capo The Capo is the second most important figure in the Don’s controlling region. Each Capo runs a part of the three sanctions of operations in Clandestine. Either the narcotics ring, the arms division, or business managment. They are also head advisors for the Don’s small council and are in charge of handling small gang diplomacy. This involves the relaying of important information they gather regarding smaller gangs to the Don. They also manage the Vanguard, keeping them in check and tracking their financial income and required funds to source firearms and narcotics. The Vanguard A Vanguards duty is to recruit, and dabble in the arms and narcotics trade. They are given tracked funds, which are in turn to be used to source reliable trusted contacts, with the intention to collect firearms and narcotics. The goods will then be sold out to buyers, or kept for the family’s personal use. A Vanguard is a part of the family's low command. A Vanguards opinion is valued in the small council meetings,however, given a Capo’s seniority, they will have a sway on the Don’s deciding choice in most scenarios. The Mafioso's Mafioso’s play a vital role in the Cladestine. They watch over the new associates, insuring they are up to par with what the Don would deem fit as a proper member of the Clandestine. An associate is given three Mafioso's to watch over them in their evaluation period. At the end of this period, the three Mafioso's as well as one Capo, decide if the Associate has the skillset required to become a proper Mafioso. Associates An associate is a criminal sought after by the Clandestine. They are given an evaluation period which is vital to the man or woman's very survival. The Clandestine, being the incognito family they are, do not take very well to outsiders knowing extremely valuable information about the family. If the Clandestine do not see you as fit, you very well may be executed. Is it a risk you’re willing to take to have a chance at becoming a part of one of San Andreas’s most low key and respected families? We’ll be watching from the shadows. Who knows, the Clandestine could very well be evaluating you at this very moment. - Acquire Pearl’s Pier restaurant and Vangelico Jewelry.

Best of luck boys! Hoping for a slight improvement on RP from your boys but for the most part y’all are poppin’ off! Can’t wait for our future encounters

"Men are respectable only as they respect." It went from just another night on Grove in purple, to where we are now in the blink of in eye. Purple played key in our past, however, it's up to our family to adapt in an attempt to succeed in this hell whole of a city. The creation of The Crimson, as we all know, marked the end of the Ballas. The end of the Ballas meant change. The Crimsons believe heavily in building strong gang relations and in turn respect for The Crimson is beginning to spread like a wildfire throughout the city. The old way of doing things in the Ballas was buried along with Tyrone. Life as a Syndicate member, unlike a Ballas life, revolves solely around respect. The Mafiaesque transition holds strong with the family as well as its new and improved way of operating. Those who disrespect a Crimson will be...let's just say that they get "dealt with accordingly". In the past we've chopped off fingers, arms, and other body parts according to how severe we decide the punishment may be. As a matter of fact, our most recent punishment was chopping mans hand off, cooking it, and then eating it right in front of him. All of this for copying The Syndicate's family color and then spitting on one of us. Never. Ever. Disrespect a Crimson. Upon broadening our horizons, opportunities have prevailed in large quantities. The Crimson's now have a hand in everything. A few of our primary examples include money laundering, taxing local stores, and most importantly, the arms trade. When it comes to The Syndicate, a large sum of our monetary income is obtained through sourcing out firearms. We meet our trusted contacts and offload massive amounts of heavy weaponry in a secluded area, only known by John, Josh and myself. Where do we source our guns from you may ask? John and I regularly arrange a bulk purchase from D...I mean, a man who was once like a brother and mentor to me. The money is then laundered out in varying amounts through legal means. However, it is taking a substantial amount of time to launder a small amount, so at the moment we’re looking for a faster more efficient way to launder our cash. Possibly through a pest control business. "You can get much farther with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone" - Source Unknown

Seems like a little birdy told Pops...Ahaha I was...informed that sadly, Pops is callin' out to some of his close friends and tryna hit our boys? Just had a "civil" conversation with Pops... Told him I had one thing to say. He's about to feel the wrath of the Crimson. Page 133 "Ballas for Life Baby" Day 234: Lemme just correct my last journal entry... The wrath of the Ballas. Deep down every Crimson member knows what we're here fighting for. It's to honor lost lives and complete a long journey some of our family has died for. In honor of our fallen brothers...long live the memory of the Ballas. Pop's crew is fighting tooth and nail over our whole council ordeal. You're probably smart enough to guess who's coming out on top though. Ballas for life baby. Page 134 "For The Future of Crimson" Day 256: I let my guard down for Mike... We had ties as old as I can remember, and I trusted him... Next thing I know, I'm getting my head shaved in a back ally. We're not letting these old WCA members get away with this. We're gonna prove to you that our family is far more dangerous than you think ,and we're not letting this end up like Ballas. Pops...Mike...you're goin' down. Page 135 "The Aftermath" Day 277: The journal's packed, my days have been long, but it's all been worth it. Major battles have continued to be won, and surprise Mike, again and again, we...are...victorious. Page 136 "Pro Council" Day 305: They wanted to try and push us around for being Pro Council? Ok, but they paid the price. They wanted bloodshed? We gave them the bloodshed they desired, however, the blood was green. Now we're gettin' a taste of what it's like bein' on top, and we aren't goin' down. Long live the memory of Tyrone. You're still in every Ex-Ballas heart. And long live the council and it's future.

We're on the brink of becoming something huge.
