## Origins

The Ćevari Outfit was founded in 2122 by Asmedi-Autonian gangster Sefal Nećapo. The outfit consisted of ten members:

## Autonian War of Restriction

In 2140, the federal Autonian government started to crack down on crime within the confederation, most notably narcotics sales. During this time, the gang started making less and less money operating within Ćevari, as the police started sending spies and undercover officers to crack down on the outfit. Most notably, given the ethnic identity of the outfit, Ćevari police were primarily stationed in the city's slums, which consisted primarily of immigrants and ethnic minorities. Because so many members of the outfit lived in or had family in these slums, Nećapo felt it crucial to handle the police as early as possible. The outfit carried out a number of assassinations on officers and replaced them with members of the outfit, allowing the gang to operate freely.

Due to the gang's need for firearms in order to carry out their operations, as well as preventing law enforcement from acquiring locally sourced weapons, Moran proposed trading narcotics for firearms in order to incentivize factory workers to sell firearm parts to the gang instead of the government. Nećapo declined this promotion, instead opting to have more of the outfit's members infiltrate law enforcement and have them steal the firearms at the expense of the police. This proved to be effective, as the gang saw an increase in narcotics sales as a result of members disguising as police and selling product to civilians. The guise of operating as police officers allowed the outfit to extend their operations to neighboring cities.

Moran had concerns about the government becoming suspicious about the exceptionally "successful" crackdown on narcotics sales in the city, and proposed having members stage drug busts and arrests around the city. Given that the police was mostly under the control of the outfit, this was considered to be a simple task, as the "officers" who made the arrests could easily process and then release the criminal, as well as return the product to the outfit and keep some to distribute during their shift.

The outfit was successful in their operations for several years, successfully transporting narcotics across the country without any issues. In 2144, the federal government, having learnt of cartels operating as law enforcement in other provinces, declared martial law, suspending the operation of local law enforcement and deploying the military throughout the nation. This was a detriment to the outfit's operations, as most of their business relied on impersonating law enforcement. Regional politicians and members of law enforcement throughout the nation opposed this, as many had ties to crime syndicates. When the military arrived at Ćevari, they were stationed all throughout the city, making it near impossible to operate anywhere. Civilians were also subject to random searches and raids, which led to the arrest of several members and angered the local population.

Given how dangerous operating within the city was, Nećapo deemed Moran his successor, should he get imprisoned or killed. In order to continue operations and liberate the city from the military, the outfit recruited civilians as part of a militia. Due to the outfit gaining popularity among civilians, the outfit equipped its members with firearms donated by local factories. Similar operations were carried out in neighboring provinces in cities the outfit had influence in. A series of bombings and shootouts were conducted against Autonian soldiers until the provinces were liberated. Supplies were looted from soldiers killed in combat and used to further the resistance effort. On September 24th, 2148, Nećapo was killed in a shootout with the military. Moran was then promoted to the position of leader of the outfit.
