## Overview

An acclaimed casino owner and businessman from Las Venturas, Greene was in service to the rival gangs of Great Britain. He was a close associate of Maranzalla. Prior to becoming an acclaimed business mogul, Greene was a hitman for the Morello Family back in Lost Heaven.

## Background

Born in Chicago, Greene lived in Lost Heaven during the early 2000's. He worked as a hitman for the Morello's, and headed to Las Venturas where he became credit with the development of the city, and bringing the interest of several out of town crime syndicates towards the city. He owned several hotels in the city, and a highly profitable casino named The Moe Pit. He also owned another casino on the outskirts of Nevada. He was a childhood friend of Henry Albatross.

## Williams' Offer

During the outbreak of The Great Gang War, Tyler Jamison a member of The Lost Episode Resistance was sent to the city by acting don Space Voyager to scout out a possible new business in the city. Though Jamison was heavily influenced by the city, Matthew Williams and The Shadow Reader didn't approve. Jamison though he hated Greene was able to make a business deal with him. Moe Greene offered the Resistance 15% of his casino's profits in exchange for a monthly fee of $25,000. Shadow dispatched Matthew Williams into the city to negotiate getting out from the contract. At the meeting, Williams was dismayed to learn that Jamison and Fred Ran had both fallen under Moe's sway. Both men were forced to go back to London by Williams who was acting on Shadow's orders. Williams attempted to get out from the deal that Jamison had agreed to, but Moe was not very fore coming, and criticised Williams' credentials as a boss saying, "I made my bones when you were selling blue berry muffins in Hell's Kitchen!" He also believed that the Resistance didn't have the power of the influence to negotiate a better deal, and suggested that Williams take the matter up to Maranzalla or Rabe Maniels.

## Death

For this mistake, Greene was executed on the day of Otterton's baptism while having a massage at one of his hotels in Las Venturas. The execution was performed with a bullet clean through the eye. Moe's casinos then became property of the Ciparini Crime Syndicate.

## Legacy

His death enraged Morello, but after all the other rival gang heads were killed, Morello quietly backed out from wanting war with the Resistance.

## Personality

Moe Greene was an arrogant but successful gangster, who had a love for the gambling industry. Greene loved his business so much, that he was offended at Matthew Williams' attempt to get out of the contract. However, Greene was not wise enough to realise that his refusal to the Resistance would sign his death warrant. Greene's refusal to sell to Williams was not entirely out of arrogance. His speculation that the Resistance was toothless was not altogether wrong, as Shadow Reader had gone into semi-retirement and the gang was at war with the other rival gangs in Great Britain. As such, it made sense for Greene to throw in his lot with the stronger gangs like The Maranzalla and Rabe Maniels crime syndicates.
