Eastside Mob

"Strength in Unity. Power in Silence."


Overview of Eastside Mob

Origin and Evolution

Eastside Mob was founded by Callum Goat and his brother Charlie. Callum had experienced life in the Irish Mob and Only The Family. Callum had always envisioned creating his own organisation with a blend of everything he knew and had learnt over the years. The vision for Eastside Mob was to have a structured criminal organisation which took part in every area of crime in order to make money and show presence. Once the Mob was created, the location was obvious, East side of the city. Callum got in touch with a long time friend, Truls Svartlamon, who helped to provide capital to purchase a nightclub. From this moment onwards, Eastside Mob was born and had a legal base of operations.

Recognising the success of the Sicilian Mafia, the brothers looked at the Cosa Nostra practices to help create the same values and principles but for a modern day Mob. Eastside Mob operates and displays a legal front by hosting events at the nightclub and making music. However, behind the scenes it's a completely different story. The Mob operates in all areas of crime, in particular, being specialists at bank heists. Taking a lot of inspiration from how the Mafia conduct themselves. Eastside Mob combined old traditions which also fits into the modern day.

Mission and Vision


The Mob stands for loyalty, respect and integrity. Each of the Mob's members should display these values and principles at all time. Focusing on both legal and illegal activities, the Mob has plenty of ways to provide income for it's members. Whether it's chopping a car or running a city wide event, the Mob never runs out of ideas. The Mob's vision is to have  a balance of both power in the criminal underworld and influence with legitimate business ventures. To the average person, the Mob should be known for it's legal ventures. But to anyone involved in the life of crime, the Mob will be painted in a completely different light.

To achieve this, Eastside Mob have close connections with a number of highly influential figures in Government, Weazel News and MD. These relationships allow Eastside Mob to eliminate certain legal barriers and enhance their legal image to the public. Combining this with strong alliances with other gangs furthers their power in the city.

Combining traditional values with modern day tactics, the Mob's vision has already started to come into fruition. 

Culture and Identity

The Eastside Mob wear grey as it's native colour. Command members and Made Men are required to wear smart clothing, ideally a suit, whereas other members are required to wear a more casual look. The outfits distinguish members to highlight their importance within the Mob. The grey colour is almost a symbolisation for how the Mob operates. The colour isn't too out there but also isn't completely discreet.

Mob members are expected to display a level of confidence and discretion within their operations. Mob members can't be afraid to act or react to a situation but instead have more of a logical way of thinking with how the operate. Irrational acts are rarely ever condoned as this may bring negative attention to the Mob.

Music is particularly an important part to the Mob's identity. It showcases the thoughts, feelings and movements of the Mob within the city. Plenty of people have shown positive reaction's to the music which has allowed members to meet and engage with new people.

Family and loyalty is massive part of how the Mob operates. Activities such as monthly dinners, events and meetings bring the members closer more and more. These activities reinforce the unity amongst members but also gives members a chance to strategise in short and long term.

Key Traditions and Practices

Omertà and The New Commandments

Members follow a code of silence and loyalty which is inspired by the Sicilian Mafia's Omertà. This includes a modern adaptation of the original 'Ten Commandments' of the Cosa Nostra that manage the expected and acceptable behaviour as well as maintain discipline within the Mob.

The Black Hand

A symbol adopted from the Sicilian Mafia, the Black Hand serves as a warning to those that disrespect the Mob. The black hand will usually be delivered by graffiti or by a note. Commonly, the black hand will be found at a rival gang's base of operations or headquarters displaying how ruthless the Mob can be.

Made Men and the Command

Becoming a Made Man is one of the most significant achievements within the Mob. Command members unanimously vote if someone becomes a Made Man. A Made Man is someone who has gained complete respect from Command. Becoming a Made Man is marked by a ritual involving the burning of an image which displays that this person has completely left their old life behind. This is also the first rank in which there is a change in what the member wears.

Monthly Dinners

These dinners serve as family bonding time where all members are allowed to wear suits and everyone is treated with the same respect regardless of their rank. These dinners are usually formal with an informal social element to them.

Influence and Strategy

When the Eastside Mob was created, there were numerous meetings with different gangs to see how the Mob and other gangs can potentially work together. The aim was to establish long-standing relationships which benefitted both gangs in a variety of different ways. Some of the relationships that were formed involved Irish, Lost MC and Rooks. There were multiple reasons for these relationships but the Mob believed that both parties could help each other and create something worthwhile. Every relationship that was established had a mature level of respect and helped towards fulfilling the Mob's vision of power and influence.

On top of criminal connections within the city, Eastside Mob always have a number of relationships with key figures. These connections allow for the Mob to operate and potentially influence important decisions that affect the people of Los Santos. As well as this, some of these figures are often seen with Mob members and attend Mob events providing more cover of the Mob being a legal organisation. The combination of these relationships allow the Mob to operate at a very high level on a legal front as well as with criminal activities. This allows Mob members to have a steady stream of income in all areas which allows for increased presence and influence within the city. 

Eastside Mob's headquarters is a hub for all the members to socialise, have events and discuss gang activities. The Mob have weekly Sunday meetings which are split into 2 parts. The first meeting is a command meeting where the members discuss gang politics, gang activities and strategies moving forward. The meetings ends with Command members discussing promotions within the organisation. Each command member votes if a member should be promoted or not, with decision being a majority vote. After the command meeting, there is a full gang meeting where all members take part. Callum provides a recap of the week, discuss any decisions moving forward and finally ends with any promotions of members. The meeting helps to bring all members together and ensure that everyone is aligned moving forward.

The Mob will always part to operate in the East side of the city not forgetting the roots. With this being said, the Mob will always look to expand within the East side of the city by acquiring more business and legal fronts which also gives expands Eastside Mob's operations and ways of laundering money. By controlling this area, it provides protection for local businesses but also Mob members.

Omertà and The Ten Commandments of the EASTSIDE Mob

Omertà

The Omertà is a code of silence about Mob activities. This means that any Mob member that cooperate with the police will meet an untimely death. As well as this, Mob members should remain quiet about Mob activities. Discussing legal ventures to members outside the Mob is fine, but discussing illegal activities is a no go. Secrecy and loyalty to the Mob is most important thing to ensure that the Mob continues to operate successfully. Any member who breaks this code which face retribution. With Mob members remaining silent, it allows for the Mob to operate efficiently without unwanted attention. This further increases the Mob's influence and money making schemes. 

The Ten Commandments

I swear to be faithful to the Mob. If I were to betray, I will meet my death.
I swear to respect all members of the Mob, regardless of rank.
I swear to always prioritise the Mob's interests above my own.
I swear to maintain secrecy; never speak of Mob matters to outsiders.
I swear to assist fellow members in need.
I swear to not engage in any actions that could harm the Mob.
I swear to never steal from the Mob or its members.
I swear to uphold the Mob's values in all situations.
I swear to show respect to civilians; unless disrespected.
I swear to always follow the orders of higher-ranked members.

Made Man Initiation

Oath of Loyalty

Once a member joins the Mob, they swear to an oath of loyalty. Swearing to this oath, the member now abides by the Omertà and the Ten Commandments. If a member breaks this oath, there will be severe punishments which could even lead to death.

Burning the Image

When a Mob member becomes a Made Man, they bring an image of their 'old life' e.g a photo of family members. This image is then burnt in front of them to symbolise their loyalty and commitment to the Eastside Mob.

Acceptance and Suiting Up

Once the image is burned and the Mob member is now officially a Made Man, the command members which are gathered there inform the new Made Man that it's time to suit up. The Made Man then receive a grey suit which displays their new rank to the rest of the Mob members.

Celebratory Dinner

After someone becomes a Made Man, there is a family dinner celebrating the new Made Man in the Mob. All members gather together for a good meal and some drinks.

Legal Ventures

JR4hD4o.jpg

E$M Records
E$M Records is Eastside Mob's flagship music label. The label is managed by Charlie Goat. Charlie has always been incredibly passionate about music and started to created music about a year ago. Charlie's vision for the label was dominate the music scene in Los Santos,  producing high quality music mainly through rap. Through the record label, Charlie has performed all over the city with different tracks and continues to perform at more events in the future. E$M records generates significant revenue for Eastside Mob but also pushes the culture. E$M records focuses on signing exclusive artists with a similar passion for music.
 

Artist Signings
When a new artist signs with E$M Records, Charlie Goat will often put a contract out of his back pocket, slide it towards them, and they will read simply, "I hereby sign my soul to E$M Records." He will ask them to sign in pen, and then slice their thumb to sign with a bloody thumbprint. At this point, the artist understands that they will receive no advance. All they will receive is part of the brotherhood that is E$M Records, opportunity to work on commissioned songs, and opportunity to participate in shows. It's a tough deal, but it's taken by most who have been offered it.
 

Joaquin Leone
The only artist who did not sign their soul to E$M Records. He and Charlie worked together on the OTF cipher back in their OTF days and are now both command members of Eastside Mob, so it was an obvious choice for him to continue making music under the label. He is an American artist and when working with Charlie they have different approaches but they gel well and have a great working relationship both within the label and the Mob.b.

Shifted
Shifted, formerly of the now-defunct Syndicate, was discovered by the Mob for his live freestyle skills. Known for his ability to incorporate any words thrown at him into a live freestyle, he quickly caught the attention of Charlie Goat. Unlike other artists, Shifted isn't interested in recording but can easily showcase his skills with a freestyle. Charlie signed him to E$M Records right on the side of the road, as he knew he needed to sign Shifted at whatever cost.

Marv the Crack Wizard and Jacoby
Marv and his manager Jacoby were signed together after Marv jumped on a bus with the Mob, determined to "tell them a story". Marv's storytelling turned out to be a great experience with all the theatre of a prize-winning author. His concept art is filled with influences from country, soul, to trap music. It may have seemed like an random signing, but Charlie felt he needed Marv on the roster. Marv agreed to sign his soul to E$M Records on one condition: a consistent supply of crack cocaine. Charlie was able to provide this so Charlie signed him immediately. Since then, Marv and Charlie have collaborated on a secretive song which is known as [redacted], a popular track in the underground music scene, often requested by those aware of it.

Marcus Harrison (Marz)
Marz, a member of the Waterfelons, had been admiring Charlie's releases for a while. He came across Callum Goat and expressed his admiration and desire to start recording music. Callum shared Charlie's number with him, and weeks later, they finally crossed paths. Charlie saw potential in Marz when they first met. Marz immediately started collaborating with Charlie and signed to E$M Records the next day. Bringing the command of Waterfelons, Marz happily signed the contract, asserting himself as part of E$M Records and strengthening the relationship between Eastside Mob and Waterfelons.

Eastside Events
Recognising the potential of a legal front through these first few successful parties, Mylah established East Side Events. This move made the front more public and credible to any sceptics of the Mob. Eastside Events host a variety of events that cater to the city's elite and the general public alike. From exciting car raffles to intriguing murder mystery events, our gatherings are designed to entertain and engage the community. These events serve as legitimate fronts for our operations, providing a steady stream of income while fostering community engagement. Our events are known for their impeccable planning, high energy, and top-tier entertainment. By consistently delivering unforgettable experiences, Eastside Events not only solidifies our reputation but also expands our network of influential contacts and loyal patrons.

Past Events

Mafia Night

 

JPCKZhX.png

The East Side Club's grand opening featured a mafia-themed night to honour the heritage of the Mob. This event marked the beginning of a series of successful events, diverting the public’s attention away from the Mob's criminal activities.

The Mafia Night was a hit, drawing a large crowd eager to see what the Eastside Mob had planned. The party exceeded all expectations, lasting longer than anticipated. There were initial nerves, but they quickly vanished as the night unfolded, this set a high standard for any future events.

Mask Off: The White Party
Shortly after the club's opening, Lewis Langley approached the Mob to host an impromptu party. The Mob started organising and creating a theme, posting Weazel ads, and distributing flyers throughout the city to ensure a large turnout.

This time, the Mob aimed for something different to portray their legal front. The white-themed party allowed attendees to wear masks inside the club, adding a different twist compared to other parties the city had seen. This attracted another large crowd, with each successful event boosting the Mob's confidence.

Glow in the Dark

 

sngine_122246b538ff19c7b0c19dda85bcb57d.

The first event under East Side Events was a Glow in the Dark party. Due to Eastside Mob's government ties, the Mob secured funding and support to raffle a car, generating revenue for the Mob's legal business. Hosted on the last day of June, this pride-themed event featured a rainbow neon dress code, displaying a modern day Mob event.

Murder Mystery
East Side Events wants to innovate once more, introducing a fresh concept: a murder mystery. Unlike typical city parties, this event invites participants to solve a staged mystery, drawing inspiration from the Mob's history. This new angle will reinforce the Mob's legal front, keeping their criminal activities concealed.

Upcoming Events

TBA
 


This post will be continuously updated as more events take place and songs are released.

Made Man Ceremony

The Path to Becoming a Made Man

In the world of the Sicilian mob, becoming a made man is one of the highest honours you can get, a rite of passage for members showing that you are trusted and respected by your peers and the higher ups. This status is very hard to achieve and is reserved for members who have proved themselves time and time again.


Earning the Honour

The process starts off with a vote among the members of command after discussion between themselves. Each member evaluates the candidates worthiness depending on their past actions, loyalty, and total contributions to the mob. To pass the voting stage the vote needs to be unanimous as a testament to his standing between all of the command members. If one person is even wavering then it will be called off as they still need to prove themselves more.


Rigorous Selection Process

If the vote is successful, we move onto the next stage which is an in depth look into the candidates personal affairs, his phone records and financial statements are examined to make sure that nothing is wrong in any way such as ties to law enforcement or secret activity going on to avoid putting the mob in and danger. Once this is fully completed then he passes onto the next stage of the process.


Secrecy and Scrutiny

The candidate is separated from the rest of the members and taken away with the command to a secluded, undisclosed location. This makes sure that the meeting is confidential and prevents any interruptions to this sacred process. Now in this hidden area the final test will begin, the candidate is questioned rigorously testing his loyalty and readiness to take on this role. At any time if anything is off the whole process will be called off until they are properly ready. This final test is meant to test their mental fortitude and their commitment to the mob. 
 

The Ten Commandments and Purification

Next a fire is lit by a member of command, symbolizing purification and renewal. All the members present stand on one side of the fire in silence and the candidate stands on the other. One by one the 10 commandments of the mob are recited, each commandment has a large amount of meaning behind it which is the lifeblood of the mobs existence. These commandments bind us together and set standards for how each member should act and carry themselves. The candidate must repeat back and agree to every commandment so they acknowledge that these are the rules they have to follow if they want to move forwards.

Receiving the Black Hand and Transformation

The final act of this process involves the prospect placing their hand into the ashes of the previously lit fire, this is known as receiving the black hand and signifies his transformation. The ashes symbolize the trials they have gone through and their commitment to the mob marking them as a made man. This gesture marks the ritual as complete and that they are a revered and trusted member of the mob.

A Binding Covenant

This ceremony is not a formality but a deep, binding commitment for potential candidates, showing their dedication to the family. It is a moment of immense pride as the candidate moves into the new role which is a great honour and a huge responsibility. From this day forwards he is no longer an average member, he is one of us and bound by the sacred oaths that define us.

Monthly Dinners


A Blend of Past and Present
The Idea behind monthly dinner is originally taken from the known dinners from Mafia Famillies, which shows a connection between Tradition and Organization. These dinners are originally created to create a strong sense of equality and unity among the Family’s members.

Creating a Sense of Equality
The style that would be used by the member of the Mob is a Smart Formal Clothing, mainly it would be a Gray Suit that would represt the Mob’s unity, that being said it would show how unified the Mob Members are.

Respect is Key to Unity
The most important aspect of such Dinner/Event would be the respect given to every member of the Mob, which would be irrelevant to their Rank within the Mob, everybody will be treated with respect no matter what race they are, how old they are and most importantly how much authority they would have.
This would really mirror on the Mob’s Loyalty and Honor.
By creating such environment, that would make it that it’s easier for the Mob members to connect with each other, have open communication within themselves and lastly it would build trust between them.

A Place to Share Ideas and Make Plans
Beyond the Family Dinner just being a social event, these dinners serve a bigger purpose which is similar to the Italian Mafia’s gatherings, it’s a place where some serious decisions would be taken, it’s also a spot for members to exchange ideas and experiences. Such experience would enhance the coherency of the Mob which would result in easier goal achievement.

A Modern Application of Ancient Principles
These Monthy Dinners which are originally inspired from the Italitan Mafia traditions, offer a guide for a unified purpose which is driven by the Mob. By blending the traditional old Italian Mafia traditions with the Modern Mob traditions it creates a solid foundation for relationships and achieving similar goals within the like-minded mobsters in the Mob.

Head Chef

Ozzy Goat

Ozzy had always liked cooking in the kitchen, from the youngest of ages he loved creating fine dining experiences for his parents and guests at his home, as he grew up and started to face the harsh realities of life, he moved away from cooking with pots and pans and moved over to glass vials and containers. Ozzy knew that his skill in cooking would bring him all riches in the right environment, and London was not that place. 

He booked a flight straight to Los Santos only packing a few materials and ingredients to show off his skills to the Cities top gangs and drug producers. After Eventually settling down in South Los Santos he met with a gang by the name of [REDACTED] and made an agreement to provide them with high-quality product, in return for weapons and armour to ship off to his own customers. 

The gang gladly agreed and his presence within the city grew. 2 Years Later Ozzy was still cooking product, although had expanded his reach from Coke and LSD to Ecstacy and Heroin frequently purchasing large quantities of these chemicals for his large scale cooks. After joining the East Side Mob his cooking ventures became far easier as the previously difficult process of importing chemicals from foreign countries was made simple with the relationships that the organisation had with other gangs. To this day Ozzy is still cooking copious amounts of illegal substances to help the Eastside Mob take over the drug running business.

MobRetaliation.thumb.jpg.cfeff2388ddbf61cb69681cddfd87c2c.jpg


Mob Retaliation


It all started when one member of the Mob wanted to manufacture substances, he went to a secret lab which is secretly located at [REDACTED]. He got ambushed by a rival gang, The ensuing attack resulted in injuries which caused him to be left in the scorched desert of [REDACTED] which caused him to be subsequently apprehended by law enforcement. They faced a lengthy prison sentence due to possession of contraband. Unfortunately, we were unaware of the situation until it was too late to intervene. Had the Mob received the news earlier, we could have helped him. But vengeance wouldn't be denied.

We had a Mob Associate who couldn’t assist and recorded the whole incident and informed us of who exactly did it and what vehicles they were in. The entire Mob got ready, met at a safe area and started rolling towards where the incident happened in hopes of finding any of the individuals who hurt one of them. A convoy from the Mob's side was out there looking for whoever did that to get revenge for their fellow Mobster.After gathering information about what happend, what vehicles were involved and the description of the people who did it that were provided by a Mob Associate.

A vehicle identified as belonging to the opposing faction was neutralized. Subsequent attempts by the opposing group to reinforce their position were unsuccessful. Mutiple other vehicles were encountered on the way that tried to intervene, which were confirmed to be responsible for the apprehension of one of our members so it was dealt with accordingly.


 

whnacRd.pngiJ10Z0B.pngnzLbYp9.pngTAMXSBY.png0kMawSi.png


After such encounters the Eastside Mob was able to get a hold and kidnapping key members of the rival gang that were responsible for the arrest of the Eastside’s Mobster, they were dealt with by taking them to a secluded place, executing them and letting them drown in their blood.


 

Fss7hoH.pngOGXZt37.pngyv3cpAT.png


This sent a perfect message to all of Eastside Mob's rivals, that at any time the Mob can unleash hell upon whoever tries to mess with it. From then on it has been quiet and a tense peace settled over the city, a fragile reminder of the Mob's ever-present wrath.

In that brutal confrontation, we managed to take down ten to twelve of the rival gang's members. It was a stark reminder of the consequences of crossing the Eastside Mob.


The Eastside Mob would like to express our gratitude to the people involved in our roleplay for their contributions to creating a more engaging and immersive experience.

Prison Break


This doesn't happen every day
July 23rd wasn't a regular day for ESM. Gang units have been on high alert for about a week, however, on that day, things escalated pretty far. Members of ESM, Harvey Keller, and Myles Leone were evading police after leaving a shootout. Myles managed to lose units from the Sheriff's Department in Paleto Forest while Harvey was in the area ready to pick him up. After a successful attempt, Harvey managed to flee the area with Myles and head back to their headquarters on Popular St. Things looked very promising for them as no police units were on them. Upon arrival, Harvey dropped off Myles so he could get on his bike, 2 seconds later, police units swarmed ESM HQ and arrested Myles for Evading an Officer and other miscellaneous charges. Harvey on the other hand managed to flee from HQ however, little did he know, that AIR-1 was on him the whole time. A pursuit ensued in Los Santos, where several police cruisers were actively chasing Harvey.
After a relatively long chase, a police unit managed to spike Harvey's car, popping its tires. This led to Harvey losing control of the vehicle which ultimately led to his arrest.
Harvey was patted down by a police officer, showing no emotions whatsoever. The handling officer for some reason, left Harvey's gun on his person. Harvey then entered the cruiser with a smirk on his face, crossing his fingers, hoping that DOC wouldn't see it on him when he enters their facility. Harvey was handed over to DOC and the 2nd most shocking thing happened. The DOC guard did not take the gun. Harvey took his jumpsuit and ran to his cell, ensuring that the weapon was concealed behind his t-shirt. Everything looked promising, and then the golden idea came to his mind, escaping prison.
Escaping a prison filled with guards is not an easy task. Anything could go wrong and the risk is extremely high. Harvey sat in his cell thinking about his next move.. asking himself "Should I do it?". He looked around and saw his gang leader, Callum Goat, and then he saw Myles who was involved in the police pursuit. Harvey shouted for Callum and Myles and told them he's got a plan to escape prison. Both of them were speechless and in shock; this doesn't happen every day, so after a short discussion, Myles agreed to escape DOC with Harvey. Callum on the other hand had little to no time left so he didn't want to risk it.


The Plan
Harvey, Callum, and Myles discussed the plan, the result was, that Callum would shout for a guard and distract them while Harvey would initiate the prison break. A guard by the name of Vito entered the cellblock while having his back to Harvey. It only took 5 seconds for him to be placed under gunpoint. This went very smoothly. Harvey demanded that he wants to escape DOC and that he does not wish to hurt anybody; after being part of several kidnappings and hostage-taking situations, Harvey knew that he must remain calm, as acting hostile would lead to him getting shot at by officers.

Negotiations
Harvey and Myles took 2 guards outside DOC by the intake and were spotted by other guards. The guards started aiming their heavy weapons at them, including the hostages. Harvey shouted that he doesn't want to hurt anyone, but rather negotiate his way out; no blood has to be shed here. The guards did the right thing by putting their guns away and initiating a prison lockdown. Law Enforcement was alerted and responded to DOC's panic alarms. After a lengthy back and forth, Harvey managed to deliver his clear demands - "2 Shinobi bikes, 2 Jerry Cans, 5 lockpicks, and 2 screwdrivers" - The guards said that they can offer bikes from PD/SD, however, Harvey denied their offer as he knows those bikes can be traced by officers; it would be too risky to evade using police bikes. Instead, Harvey asked for the 2 Shinobi bikes that were parked inside DOC, in the parking area. Those demands were complied with by the Sheriff's Department following a short back-and-forth with an operator from the Special Enforcement Detail. After both bikes were fueled up using the Jerry Cans that Harvey requested, the next step was to get past the second gate and enter the public parking area in front of DOC. This seemed tricky and risky at the same time, as the entire prison was surrounded by DOC guards and Law Enforcement - Snipers were also stationed at Watch Towers. Getting out of DOC without getting shot seemed almost impossible. Harvey whispered to Myles "You go first, once you're out, I'll push my luck and see what happens". Harvey informed the negotiator that Myles would leave first however, that request was rejected. The operator said it's either both of you would leave, or no one will. Being that hopeless, Harvey decided to take the offer after being told by an Investigator that "guns will not be discharged if you just leave". Harvey asked the officers to get on the bikes, drive them outside of DOC, and park them up there. Tensions were rising as Harvey and Myles were slowly walking past the gates. Red and blue lights were surrounding the prison and the whole thing seemed impossible. Harvey looked over his shoulder, telling Myles "On GO" and then started counting down. Both Harvey and Myles got on the bikes at the same time and drove off, leaving DOC premises.

The Escape
Emotions were high, all that could be heard was police sirens. All that can be seen is a road and a path of freedom. Harvey floored the bike down the highway, looking above him to only see a police helicopter. He looked behind him and saw a police bike speeding toward him. The only way to escape this is to outsmart the helicopter. Harvey drove straight to Pillbox tunnel, knowing the helicopter was still hovering above him. Instead of taking the usual expected route and risking it, Harvey did the unpredictable - he hit the brakes and made a U-Turn, dusting the helicopter behind him. The police bike spotted him however, they couldn't keep up as Harvey was already driving at 170km/h in the opposite direction. Harvey took every alleyway he could see and drove below every bridge he could find until the helicopter was no longer above him. After hiding underneath a bridge for about 10 minutes, Harvey floored the bike to his place, abandoning the it in an alleyway nearby, and hid inside his apartment. He popped open a bottle of whiskey and drank one for his freedom.

Family Betrayal

 


Role in the Mob Family and Loss of Command

A woman within the Family of the Eastside Mob has been there since day one, making sure to climb all the ranks, gaining power over the months in order to be within the people who've got the authority within the Mob, upon gaining power, authority and trust from the Mob Higher Ups, she was agreed upon to be one of them ensuring the safety of the Mob and that everything is going according to plan.

Upon gaining power, she started power tripping and not promoting members just for personal gains, Higher ups realized and saw that from her and planned to demote her upon doing so.

A couple of the Mob members saw her hanging around with other people from another gang even though she was still within the Mob, this raised eyebrows, some higher ups also noticied specially that she brought some of them to our HQ.

That was the last straw and she was demoted completely from command team.


Defection to Rival Gang

She then heard about such news, she decided to leave for a couple of days until she ghosted her partner and decide to leave the Eastside Mob and join it's rival gang ROOKS, while some people are let loose when they want to leave the Mob, higher ups couldn't let her leave with alot of information and specially towards joining a rival gang, and so the hunt begins.


Kidnapping and Death

The Mob had received a call from Rosalia Leone that's a trusted high ranked mobster within the Eastside Mob informing them that he had seen the "TRAITOR" leaving the Bolingbroke facility and walk down towards Route 68 Bank, upon receiving the tip.

Ekon Saint, Callum Goat, Roberto Sanchez, Kayden Leone more from the Mob headed up their to end it once and for all.

Ekon Saint brought his special Double-Action gold plated Revolver that his god-father had given him as a gift and for this special occasion knowing very well that if his plan goes successfully he would put a bullet into her head and end it all, Ekon immediately headed out towards the location and was able to find her on the side of the street walking, he got out pulled out the revolver from the back of his belt and aimed it at her demanding for her to get into the trunk, she did indeed and the Mob then moved to a discreet location to end the suffering they endured from this person for months.

She was put on her knees, with the golden revolver towards her head, she started speaking badly towards one of the Mob members and that's when Ekon and Damian set her back to her place, she was shaved and lastly united with her ex-partner he gave her some words then shot her in the head.

She was trying to crawl away and had a couple of last breathes in her and that's when one of the higher ups stomped her head causing her to die immediately, this has brought peace to the Mob, and sent a clear message to everyone that NO ONE should mess around with the Eastside Mob.

Made Man Ceremony


The Path to Becoming a Made Man.
Brandon Howard had worked his way through the Mob in order to gain the highest honours you can get, This status is very hard to achieve and is reserved for members who have proved themselves time and time again.

Earning The Honour.
Brandon Howard had been selected by the higher ups to be sowrn into the Mob due to his loyalty and dedication towards the Mob and it's members, the amount of work he had put into making sure the Mob members are safe has been alot for the past couple of months, When Brandon Howard is given a job by the higher ups, it has always been completed with flying colors in secrecy.

Secrecy and Scrutiny.
The higher ups had concluded the Mob Family meeting on the 25th of August 2024Brandon Howard was separated from the rest of the members and taken away with the command to a secluded, undisclosed location. This makes sure that the meeting is confidential and prevents any interruptions to this sacred process. And after months of hardwork the test began, he is questioned about his loyalty and readiness to take on this role. At any time if anything is off the whole process will be called off until they are properly ready.

The Ten Commandments and Purification.
Brandon Howard was asked to recite the Ten Commandments after a command member that's stood infront of him between them a camp fire while the other command members are behind, and him to be left alone on the other side. One by one the 10 commandments of the mob are recited, each commandment has a large amount of meaning behind it which is the lifeblood of the mobs existence. These commandments bind us together and set standards for how each member should act and carry themselves.

Receiving the Black Hand and the Transformation.
Brandon placed his hand into the ashes of the previously lit fire, this is known as receiving the black hand and signifies his transformation. The ashes symbolize the trials they have gone through and their commitment to the mob marking them as a made man. This gesture marks the ritual as complete and that they are a revered and trusted member of the mob.

Hostage Heist


Planning Stage
The Mob had gathered up at their club in order to plan a huge bank heist ahead, with the intentions of gaining as much money as possible in order to fill the pockets of the new mobsters.
The Higher Ups within the Mob had years of experience in such heists, they figured the Bank with the most money would be Pink Cage bank but they knew the risks one of them would be the fast response of Law Enforcement, so a member of the mob stepped ahead and showed loyality by saying that he would be the "fake" hostage, as he wasn't on the records of the police yet and was unknown to him, from which the Higher Ups agreed, from that the Plan was set, and a driller was chosen by the Higher Ups and everything was noted down.


 

AlNgDpT.pnghOwD1R8.pngO4RtqKc.png


Setting the stage
The Mob moved out and headed around the bank area, before doing so they had obtained some new clothing that's different from the style of their normal attire, that would help with making them more unidentifiable, upon doing so they had a mobster in a vehicle outside scouting for any on-coming traffic, while moving in.
The "fake" hostage was pretending to be at the counter and he then was ordered by the weapon holder to put his hands up, go in the corner and get on their knees, form which they did, and so the heist begins.


 

VuE0dmg.pngk5v2XS6.png


Execution
After penetrating the vault, the mobster entered and started filling their puffed jackets with packed cash, one by one they were all full and assisted with giving money to the mobster holding the "fake" hostage under gun point, negotiations started with the Law Enforcement, giving demands for free passage from the East Side of the bank, after 10 minutes the barricades were set down and the mobsters headed out, Two Police Bikes had crashed into their own barriers giving the Mob free evasion and no threats from Law Enforcement what so ever!
The "fake" hostage and the pointer were able to get away due to the hectic situation and both were paid according to their loyality.
The Mobsters were able to get away successfully and fulfill the heist's goals with zero casualties.

Loyalty and Alliance

The night was about to begin, and as it did, many ESM members planned to talk to a man who had intel on high-value houses. However, Shaniqua always believed that paying $20,000 for such intel to triple the profit wasn't worth the time. She decided to drive around and find some high-value targets herself.

After a quick stop at HQ for a chat, she noticed a black Caracara driving by and heading toward Popular Street. Shaniqua got into her car and slowly followed the Caracara. An unknown driver stopped near another vehicle Shaniqua had in mind for stealing and dismantling to make some quick cash. Unfortunately for her, the driver of the Caracara had an accomplice who actually stole the car. But was it really unfortunate?

As the carjackers headed towards the highway, Shaniqua assumed they were going to a public chop shop. She quickly shifted gears, disregarding the possibility of police interference, and headed in the same direction. However, she eventually lost sight of them and gave up, returning to HQ. While driving through the city, she noticed the exact same Caracara parked in front of a house. The house had no garage or hidden area for dismantling the vehicle.


 
eBVRz7R.png

Feeling curious, she started looking around and listening. She climbed onto rooftops, checking the area for any movement—but there was nothing. Giving up, she began heading back to her car when she suddenly heard a loud thump nearby, like a heavy metal object hitting the ground. Smirking, she went back to her car, hid it, and returned to lurk around the corner of a house across the street.

Patiently waiting, she noticed another car being driven in, accompanied by the same black Caracara. Sensing the opportunity, she quickly darted through some yards back to her car as the moment to act opened up. She immediately briefed everyone on the frequency about the intel she'd gathered, and everyone met back at HQ.

It was time to make some quick cash. Prepared for a silent approach, most of the members chose to bring silenced Uzis. They set up an ambush in front of the chop shop, but not everyone was ready to wait. After just five minutes of staking out the place, a decision was made to attempt a break-in.


 
2B5GebJ.png

The break-in was successful, but the alarm was triggered. The owners quickly arrived and started questioning them, though they posed no real threat. Some members chased them away, but one person was caught and brought into the house. Unfortunately for the heist crew, the hostage didn't know any safe codes. The members quickly gathered up the chop shop equipment, stored it, and planned to sell it and split the profit.

Everyone was satisfied with the haul and decided to lay low and relax at HQ to cool off.

Not long after, Callum arrived and was briefed about the day's events. A bit shocked but understanding, Callum informed the team about the group they had raided. It was a group led by one of his long-time friends. A meeting was arranged, and with understanding from both sides, the equipment was returned. The Mob knew the loyalty and importance of maintaining connections was worth more than money.

Eastside Art Collective


Eastside Art Collective

The Eastside Art Collective is soon to be our newest addition to our fronts, a high-end art gallery that will showcase a wide range of contemporary and modern pieces. But behind the legitimate facade, the gallery also serves as a space for private meetings, underground dealings, and secret events reserved for those in the know. This isn’t just a place to admire fine art; it’s a carefully crafted environment where business and culture collide.

What can you expect?

The public sees an elegant space filled with carefully curated art pieces. This is the perfect cover for anyone walking in off the street, oblivious to what’s really happening.

Behind the scenes, we have private rooms where exclusive meetings and discussions will take place. These spaces are for trusted members and partners only, business that isn’t meant for public eyes.

We plan to host art exhibitions, private auctions, and exclusive gatherings. Of course, some of these "gatherings" might have a bit more than just art for sale.

Turning the Page


The Background

Lost MC and E$M had been fighting extensively for around 5 to 6 months. The conflict began when a few Lost MC members went rogue and took control. These fights were unproductive, leaving members of both gangs either dead or arrested, with little to no reward. Despite this, the clashes continued almost daily. Lost MC’s constant checking of dealers and instigating fights forced E$M to retaliate. E$M knew deep down that this wasn’t the real Lost MC, but rather a shadow of its former self, echoed through the actions of a small group of members.

Recently, the few remaining true members of Lost MC were left in the dust, forced to abandon their recent reckless ways, even if some wanted to continue. Lost MC had become a shell of its former self, with only a few core members remaining. They realized it was time to mend the relationships that had been left in ruins, so they decided to arrange a meeting with Callum and the rest of the E$M leadership.

The Meeting
E$M waited outside their new diner as multiple Gargoyles pulled up, making it clear that Lost MC had arrived. The Lost MC members were brought inside the diner, where they were greeted with an open bar and a waiter. They sat down while other members of E$M enjoyed a meal on the side. The waiter came over to offer food and drinks, but the Lost MC members declined, which the waiter took as a sign of disrespect, feeling annoyed.

The meeting pressed on, with E$M questioning the integrity of Lost MC and their desire to return to their stronger past. Lost MC made it clear that they were ready to make amends for the wrongs done by their rogue members, agreeing to reimburse [REDACTED]. As the conversation continued, E$M members sipped whiskey while discussing the future of their relationship with Lost MC. However, no concrete decisions were made.

In the end, Lost MC said their farewells and left the diner without tipping the bartender leaving him shocked.

Seeding Peace



The Background
While the Waterfelons and E$M had not exactly been enemies or friends, there was some unsettled tension. This tension stemmed from a previously released song by the Waterfelons, which contained a verse targeted at E$M. The Waterfelons were given 72 hours to either edit the song or take it down, but they refused to act on it.

Fights between the Waterfelons and E$M were rare but still occurred occasionally. This left members feeling unclear about the reasons behind the conflicts. The fights mainly stemmed from petty trash talk from both parties. E$M’s command banded together and decided it was time for an official meeting with the Waterfelons. This led the underboss of the Mob, Joaquin Leone, to the Pink Cage Motel to request a meeting between the command members of E$M and the Waterfelons at our diner, to which they agreed.



The Meeting
E$M command waited outside for the Waterfelons to arrive, while other members prepped food and drinks inside the diner. The Waterfelons were taken to the offices above the diner and seated. The lead chef/waiter headed upstairs to take their orders, surprised by the order of “beans on toast.” He begrudgingly agreed.


6eeeaVW.png

 


The meeting mainly focused on why the two groups were in the current state of tension. Both parties were confused, leading the conversation to address why their "beef" was unnecessary. As they ate and drank, they continued to discuss [REDACTED].

The waiter periodically came upstairs to offer food, water, or cigarettes. After the conversation, E$M and the Waterfelons agreed to stop pushing, fighting, and talking trash. Satisfied with the meeting’s outcome, the meal came to an end, and the bill was covered by the owner, Callum Goat. Unlike other visitors to the Eastside Diner, the Waterfelons left the waiter a hefty tip along with a smile.

Bingley Bother


The backstory

The Mob was taking part in a gambling session at the Diamond Casino when a familiar face walked in -Derek Bingley. A conversation began between Derek and Callum Goat, during which Derek took accountability for shooting out ESM’s tires at their diner a few days prior. Tensions rose, and Derek ended up lashing out and smashing one of the Mob’s vehicles. The Mob did not take this lightly and decided to retaliate in the best way they knew how.

Attempt one

Members of the Mob withdrew their weapons and bundled Derek into the trunk of their vehicle. Needing a place to teach him a lesson, they decided there was no better option than a trip across the newly constructed bridge to Cayo Perico to deal with their Bingley bother. 

Unbeknownst to the Mob, two other members of the Bingley family had called the cops, snitching on the Mob and enabling the police to trace Derek and stop the Mob in its tracks.

Success

The Mob does not take kindly to those who interfere in its business. A decision was made to deal with the issue once and for all, they would go after every Bingley involved. A Mob member spotted the Bingleys in their signature Sentinel at Burgershot and sent out a call over the radio. Soon, more Mob members arrived at the scene, heavily armed and ready to finally get their revenge.

A chase ensued as the Bingleys fled to Mission Row, seeking help from the police to escape the very situation they had caused. Despite multiple demands to leave the area, the Bingleys refused. The Mob acted quickly, deciding to take them then and there. Three Kamachos pulled up, one for each Bingley, and each was ordered into a trunk.

The Mob transported them to Cayo Perico once again, forcing all three to their knees in an attempt to discuss what had happened. But the Bingleys responded with their usual rambling and nonsense.

This was taken as a sign of disrespect. The Mob decided to execute them for their continued meddling in Mob affairs - and for snitching to the cops. Lined up against a wall, they were dealt with firing-squad style.

The Kingmaker is Back


The Plan

Kai always felt he was destined for more than just survival, he was born to lead. From his early days in the city, he gravitated toward power, carving his way through Los Santos by starting his own gangs or embedding himself in others, slowly making his way up the ranks. His charisma, street smarts, and relentless ambition made him a natural leader, and while many feared him, others followed him without question. But this time, Kai wasn’t just chasing power for the sake of power.

Something had shifted inside him.

This time, the vision was different, more focused, more personal. He wasn’t interested in copying the cookie-cutter gangs that littered the city like broken glass. He wanted to create something with meaning. A brotherhood that valued loyalty over fear, principles over profit. A group with its own moral code, even if it was written in blood.

Kai began laying the foundation in secret. Every move calculated. He started small, gathering intel, building connections, and accumulating resources. Money came first, then weapons, then influence. As days turned into weeks, the pressure of trying to juggle every part of the operation began to take a toll. The constant paranoia, the sleepless nights, the unrelenting weight of leadership, Kai began to wonder if he was truly ready to build a gang from the ground up again.

Then, by what felt like fate, he ran into a familiar face. Callum Goat.

Callum and Kai had known each other for many years at this point and even though they were adversaries in the past, they always kept a friendly tone.

Change of Plan

After speaking for a few minutes about the state of ESM and Kai’s current plans, an idea emerged where maybe it was time for Kai to humble himself and use his experience to strengthen ESM, who are already well respected in the city’s criminal underworld, instead of starting his own gang again.

The thought of this undertaking gave Kai a familiar feeling, it’s been a while since he’s been a low-ranking member. He thought to himself, “This might just be the thing I need right now.”

So the next day he contacted Callum and said he was interested in joining and that he would do what he could to bring East Side Mob to the pinnacle of the criminal underworld. Kai now believes that under Callum's leadership and Kai’s contributions ESM will thrive. They will once again be Kings of Los Santos.

Eastside Events Awards Night Plan

The idea

It was a regular Saturday night for Will. He sat in his lucky casino chair gambling his life savings away whilst deep in his own thoughts. Thoughts he had for a while. Thoughts on ways to get the Eastside Events name out there, more than it had even been. Idea after idea flooded his mind. Then suddenly with a massive snug grin on his face, he knew exactly what to do. 

With urgency he scrambled all of his winnings off of the table, hopped into his car and drove to Eastside Diner. He sped down roads going in and out through passing cars eager to share his idea with his high command. He then arrived at the diner in outstanding time, flung his car door open and sprinted inside to meet with his higher ups. 

He swung the door open, screaming and shouting to everyone, sprinting towards the stairs to tell everyone the idea and get their opinions. Huffing and puffing, he entered the meeting room and spotted Callum, Alistair and Becci in there all discussing important matters. 

The informing

Will was eager to inform the others of his idea. He just couldn't contain his excitement. ‘’Guys, I have an idea! An idea which can get Eastside Events back on the radar’’, Will stated to the three high command members in front of him. ‘’Let's hear it then’’ Callum sharply replied, eager to get an event up and running. ’’It will be tough and require all of us to lock in, but if we get this done, we can produce one of the most successful and interactive events that this city has ever seen’’ Will replied in a calm, however slightly excited voice.

‘’I say that we host an awards night’’, Will stated in a confident tone of voice.’’ We could come up with numerous awards and give out surveys to the public so they can decide who they want to win each’’. Will was thrilled to share this idea with them. Since he was a young boy he had always dreamed about entertaining people and ensuring that they enjoy themselves and have a good time and this might be his chance to fulfil that dream. ‘’Yea,that sounds like a great idea, are you willing to take charge though Will?’’, Becci soon replied. ‘’Yes, 100%’’, Will replied, full of excitement, thrill and adrenaline. ‘’I will get to planning straight away!’’

The plan

Will knew he couldn't do this alone. He knew he needed to have an assistant. He knew just the person. ‘’Kai, can you come to HQ quick?’’ Will asked on the radio, eager to start planning and ensure that this is done efficiently and successfully. Kai arrived shortly after and was briefed by Will straight away on the event and how this could be planned and how it could work out. After a long conversation, they knuckled it all down into very specific details. They wrote the survey, they made an automatic tally but there was one thing they hadn’t quite planned. A location!

After yet another long conversation between the two and multiple debates, they managed to agree on one place that was perfect for an event of this capacity and genre. Vinewood Bowl. They then travelled to the bowl and began to plan out what they needed to add and how they could make this as realistic as possible. After hours of brainstorming the bowl, they finally decided on everything they needed. ‘’I have a good idea’’ Will then suddenly said to Kai. ‘’I'm going to call Marco Davis and ask for a favour’’. This left Kai confused yet intrigued, ‘’And what would that favour be?’’ He asked. Will then began to dial a number. ‘’I'm going to ask if Weazel can come and record our event and take pictures of everyone on the red carpet and whoever wins an award’’. He told Kai to which he responded, ‘’That would be sick.’’

After a successful call with Marco, Will informed Kai that Marco had agreed to Will’s favour and would be delighted to help. This left them full of relief and content. They had planned it all out to the highest of their abilities and were relieved to have finished all the hard work and constant obstacle climbing. However one last idea popped into Will’s head, they needed some more entertainment, people that everyone in the city loved, people that could make others' day. The Los Locos. Will quickly decided to drive to the Locos barrier and met up with Phil Martinez, who is High Command of Los Locos. 

After may requirements and favours were exchanged, Phil told Will. ‘’The Locos will do it.’’ A sharp grin instantly swept over Will’s face. He then thanked Phil and drove away. Full of relief and calmness Will drove steadily back to the Diner and told everyone the good news. 

Eastside Events were back in business. And they were back with a bang!
