Julio Pedone

Julio Pedone was once a member of the Family. He worked for them for close to three decades when a regime change decided that he was no longer useful, and shuffled him off to the Moretti Outfit on Catalina Island, basically a dumping ground for rejects. Feeling betrayed that his years of loyalty meant nothing to the new godfather, Julio began looking for work with Chimera. When the Family found out, they sent the Moretti Outfit to kill him. When Julio fled, he ended up in the lair of the Iron Master, who subdued all involved and recruited Julio. Julio then became the Iron Master's go-to man for subversion, bribery, and gang management. He doesn't often see the front lines, but he is a vital component of the business end of the Iron Guard. He typically advises a cautious approach to gang expansion, preferring to sit and consolidate power until he's good and ready to strike and avoiding any confrontation with opponents they can't overwhelm rather than taking risky battles against evenly matched foes. His opposite in this regard is Rica Rivera, who often advises quick, decisive strikes and rapid expansion.
Julio Pedone doesn't speak much of his family history, as it is largely a trainwreck of dysfunction, dead end jobs, jailtime, and premature death. As a cautious man who plays the long game by nature, he's avoided the worst of these fates by his own merits, but he is unlikely to have ever risen past a common grunt well past his prime if he had not encountered the Iron Master.
