Rocky Burns

## Early Life

Rocky Burns was born in Liberty City on December 26th, 1998. His parents were killed in a car accident when they were celebrating their 12th anniversary. He was raised in an orphanage where he learned to adapt. To survive Rocky had to fight and not be a push over. There was one altercation where another orphan tried to get the best of Rocky by calling him names and pushing him in the lunchroom. Rocky had enough of this kid and broke his jaw in one punch in front of everybody. From that day on nobody at the orphanage tried him again. When He turned 18 he was dismissed from the orphanage and set out to the streets of Liberty City.

## Liberty City

Starting from nothing in Liberty City was tough. Rocky was left with no home, no family and no money. Most of the kids that go through the orphanages turn to crime and Rocky was no different. He started growing and selling marijuana to locals around the city. He met another dealer doing this, called Banjo. Banjo was a soldier of a gang that mainly deals in drugs. This became easy work for Rocky, he learned the ins and outs of the drug market over a year. He then moved up the ladder cooking and selling meth. This caught the attention of the gang Banjo was in and they put a hit out on Rocky for $200,000 for taking away their buyers. Banjo told Rocky about the hit and told him to leave the city. To go anywhere but stay in Liberty City. Knowing he would probably never hear from his friend again, Rocky listened and booked a flight to Diamond City.

## Diamond City

Upon arriving Diamond City all Rocky had was his wits and some spending cash. He got a lay of the land. Started to network and met Mark Jones, Floyd Gallo and Joe Cool. They started growing marijuana and started dealing for some cash. Rocky would see a party posted on twitter and decide that that was the best way to meet some more people in the city. When he got to the party he met a man named Johnny Blaze. Johnny and Rocky clicked pretty easily and started business. Johnny needed drugs and Rocky needed a job. He started cooking meth on the side but with a solid buyer this time. What Rocky did during the day was plan out bank heists. Always adapting and changing, trying new things to keep the cops on their toes. Planning led to execution in several successful bank jobs. This landed him a lot of dirty cash to deal with. Which he bought illegal weapons with. Flipping the cash, he became an arms dealer. Everyone was making money and business was booming. Rocky met Kristy Smith at the strip club. She didn't trust him but gave him a chance. She introduced him to Jimmy Ricardo. Turns out he's a godfather of a mafia. Rocky then began business, gaining their trust. After several parties and jobs. They then introduced him to Charles Valentino one of the Under Bosses of the Mafia who Rocky could tell had been through a lot in his life and wasn't even close to being done with it. Charles was business first and foremost always. They were alike in this. After some successful jobs with each other Rocky was invited to join them in family, The Ricardo Family Mafia. Rocky accepted knowing big things were coming and couldn't wait to get started.

## The Mafia

Legally Rocky is a DJ that can be hired to play music anywhere and everywhere. He can also be seen running security for the Vanilla Unicorn which the family owns. Illegally he deals in hits, drugs, races, bank jobs and guns.

One summer afternoon Rocky's girlfriend Apollo was with the FIB Director Pembrook. Charles heard of this and told Rocky "She's seen the money and now she's running from you dog." Rocky being Rocky told Pembrook he was "coming for his fucking head." Rocky and Charles then found where Pembrook lived and pulled up in a Mercedes. The girls and Pembrook were there and now they were too. After a few staged photos to make Pembrook look good, Rocky came to keep his promise and grabbed Pembrook hostage. With a gun to his head Pembrook said "I can shoot you in the dick right n-" the gunshot rang. It was enough. The body thudded to the floor. Everyone was in shock. Charles turned to Rocky "You just executed the director of the FIB you gotta RUN!" The director was dead and soon the place would be swarming in cops. There was no time the cops were already there. Knowing he'd be locked in prison for life, as the red and blue lights reflected off the marble driveway Rocky got down on one knee and proposed to Apollo. She replied with "Yes Rocky I will marry you." The cops got ready for a gunshot residue scan or a (GSR) test and Charles volunteered first. Going to turn himself in Charles told Rocky to get in his car and drive. There was no way out, no possible escape. Yet Rocky made it work, the medic that came to heal Pembrook left and made a clearing. Rocky drove off without a cop ever scanning him and a free man. That is how Rocky and Apollo got engaged, Apollo later admitted it was all part of her plan which seemed to work seamlessly.

With many heists done, drugs & guns sold, kidnappings & murders dealt, within the mafia everything was going smooth as silk. That is when some discourse ran through the family when Kristy & Jimmy got legal. They didn't want to rob & kill anymore because people were catching flights for doing it too often. This caused Charles and Luca to leave the family. Rocky's brothers. They did everything with them and now they were gone. Rocky was all alone, running the crime side of the mafia as the new underboss while Jimmy & Kristy ran the legal side of things.

The Mafia lasted for a while, at least until it's heart was ripped out when Apollo & Clementine left. Those two were the life of the family, bringing the drinks and the company everywhere they went. They left cause the commitment and solidarity was overbearing. They felt isolated from the family. Which Rocky tried to fix by communicating that to the godfather but he didn't listen. This upset people in the family. Causing factions within. Rocky became a middle man between the girls of the family and the godfather Jimmy. As the girls would tell him something needed to be done but wouldn't listen. So they came to Rocky and Jimmy would listen to him. This worked for a little while but it wasn't enough.

It became abundantly clear that Jimmy didn't want to lead the mafia anymore and asked Rocky to take the role as godfather. It was a big decision. Everything Rocky wanted. But the people that were left, were not the people Rocky wanted as his new family. He didn't know them, he would've had to start fresh with something unknown and extremely volatile. Rocky said no, he said no and packed his stuff knowing the following day The Ricardo Family Mafia would be dissolved and disbanded. With his future unknown Rocky had decisions to make. A future to think of. When word hit the streets of Diamond City, he was called by Johnny Blaze to join KOBK & Girth Brooks to join The Lost. Feeling lost already, Rocky called Brooks to talk it over.

## The Lost

Meeting in the city Rocky met up with Girth to be welcomed as the newest member of The Lost. With his own MC vest and bike Rocky doesn't know what's in store for him with his new home. But one thing he does know is the smell of leather and the people he is with. Five of the Mafia are now with The Lost including Rocky's old friends Charles & Luka, with the remaining members all being well known with Rocky. The future is unknown and it's just getting started.
