luck licked

The luck licked is a gang of gamblers supposedly run by a fiend who gives certain members magical abilities but those are just stories and rumors, but it is true that people suddenly get very good at gambling and also gain magic around that same time so that gives the stories some validity. when it comes to criminal man power in Mevlova there rather small but what they lack in size they make up in quality they swindle and steal from seemingly random people taking every thing they have leaving them with nothing and then  they offer it all back for a price, your soul. know for any one who doesn't believe the rumors this is an easy deal they loose nothing and all they had to do was prick there finger and sign there name on a piece of paper. For those who do believe the tales its a simple choice in the other direction why would i give up the chance of a beautiful after life for but mere mortal possessions, so depending on the truth its all or nothing they make you take the gamble they indoctrinate you into there life style almost like a cult but when you have made your choice when you've rolled the dice you're done with them they never bother you again.

Structure

the leader refuses to give a name to them-self and stays in shadows working with a few well trusted individuals. those individuals are known as the accolades which there a total of 6. we then have management and the dealers which make up about 30% of the gang the rest are just referred to as gamblers. between the gamblers there is a mutual respect although the "gifted" which are the people who suddenly became magical and very good at gambling are considered to be of higher importance by management this mentality isn't shared by many of the gamblers what gets respect from them is your ability to play the game and not just win but make the game interesting.

Culture

The best gamblers are not those who cheat but play the game fair and square like its suppose to be played people who trick others with slight of hand or even magic are thrown out and those who try and try and trick the house get punished they love random so there punishment is randomized by two six sided dice ranging from lashings to death to nothing.

Public Agenda

To either take the souls or wealth from a random selected few. There motivated by there want to gamble and play games with high stakes.

Assets

They have a few large under ground casinos only one of which is inside the walls of Mevlova in all of these casino's there is 4 high security hotel rooms, the Casino's have large stocks of coin but its constantly moving hands and buildings. there is about 220 members to this group most of which carry weapons of some kind but they aren't trained for combat. The organisation also keeps a few "pets" on hand in case they want to participate in the MCR but they lost taste for it when they found out lots of the fights where unfair.

History

Originally part of the MCR gambling ring they separated due to there differences in ideology MCR was in it all for the money and entertainment aspect but didn't respect the rules which caused a group to splinter off taking supposedly meeting a Devil who offered them a chance to make something better and that was how the luck licked formed.
