Aiden John

## Early Life

Aiden John was born and raised in Vice City. His adolescence was pretty par for the course. His parents separated while he was still relatively young and his father went on to find a new wife. This new wife though had been married previously and came along with a son of her own. A Hugh Mungus. The two were now half-brothers and as all new relationships go, it was a growing process. Nothing brought them together more than the death of Aiden's father. Hugh barely knew him but after having suffered the death of his own father, he knew what Aiden was going through.

Bound through this tragedy, they grew quickly. Aiden falling in love with muscle cars after inheriting his father's old car. Initially Aiden through himself into the restoration work, finding it cathartic. It brought him peace and a love that will never die.

Hugh on the other hand was drawn to protecting his new little brother. One way or another. Hugh was taken down a path of crime at a young age out of necessity and eventually Aiden was brought into the fold.

Once Aiden got a taste of the criminal life, he was hooked. He took to it like a moth to a flame. The two of them got into so much trouble around Vice City they had started to make a name for themselves. Well this was good and bad. Good because they were finally getting some respect around the city, but bad because it also attracted the wrong attention.

The local Haitian gang didn't take nicely to these up and comers digging into their profits. To teach the two a lesson, a hit was placed on their mother and the Haitians took her out ruthlessly. This shattered the two but ultimately made them stronger. They took to the streets, building up forces to fight back the Haitian influence. In doing so, they met a group of neighborhood kids that also had no one. The five formed up to keep each other safe and thus a new gang was formed.

## The Family Era

The five rag tag kids from the slums of Vice City now called themselves "The Family" with Aiden at the helm. The consisted of himself, Hugh Mungus, Cleetus Scruggs, Von "Lips" Anderson, and Douglas Finkleton. They ran guns, produced drugs, robberies, you name it. These kids were off to the races. The gang even grew so much as to carve out enough respect and turf that the Haitians started to back off. They were respected for their tenacity and outright loyalty to one another. If you messed with one, you messed with all of them and you knew it quickly.

The local police though were slightly harder to deal with than the Vice City gangs. The police force was so corrupt, the streets the gangs ran were really theirs. Eventually the heat from the police became so bad for business that the five decided to consider relocating to somewhere new.

It was at that time, the gang decided to uproot and give Diamond City Los Santos a try.

## Diamond City Los Santos

The Family hit Diamond City fast and hard, but couldn't quite find their groove in the big picture. They hit jobs and scored big from time to time but knew something had to change. It was then that they came across a Diamond City Local Gang called The Long Boys, lead by Dick Long. The Long Boys had already been in the city for sometime but also needed a change. So it was decided that the two groups merge, with Aiden to hold presidency, and thus the Los Santos Bloods were formed.

## Los Santos Bloods Era

Currently The Family and The Long Boys operate in the high-class crime organization known as the Los Santos Bloods. With Aiden at the forefront, the gang continues to grow from the original family values defined oh so long ago. Striking fear and respect in friend and enemy alike, they grow their grip on the city one job at a time.
