"All women are hookers except your mom and mine, capisce?"
Appearance
A mature male, between the ages of 40 and 49, of southern European descent. Tall and well built at 6'3", looking 245 pounds. Light olive skin, weathered through a few decades of the harsh world; yet a pleasantly charming, smooth and clean-shaven face resembling a youthful rogue. A recently made blade thin scar runs down his right cheek. Dark wavy hair a glossy black shade and short cropped. A pair of dark, new style glasses rest over his eyes, adjusting tint with the environment. His light brown eyes hide a well of emotions when revealed and on his ear are several earrings glowing with a soft blue florescent light. Two small dark silver circular spots near the back of his ear are shaved clean for quick access to the data jack and secondary port, but only noticeable from side profile.
Seems like a lively fellow, but there's something about the way he walks and talks, that says, "I got secrets that could kill you."
Distinguishing Features
Sense of designer style in Italian suits, extremely well stocked build, larger than a normal human, but shows it well with a toned muscular structure that almost seems 'athletic' in bulk. Light blue florescent earring. Silky soft hair.
Mannerisms and Habits
Smokes Solo Brand black cigarettes with an herbal flavor, always lighting with an old school chrome Zippo.
Fast women and faster cars; Joey known by his alias, Daemon Starks, has run through the street racing circuits of the deeper shadows for some years.
Has an eye for two types of candy; Candy, the girl that works the club at Perfect Ten and Catacombs on Thursdays, and the kind that is pure white Colombian powder. Frequents gentlemens clubs, carousing the night for business, meetings, pleasure, and bad habits.
Prefers VIP sections of any club, and frequents many of the local 'lime light' spots around town with his small crew associations.
Loves to drink old school Scottish Whiskey, single malt, a bottle of 'Old Smuggler' is often under the bar at Franky's.
Not the easiest person to approach; mild in manner until you provoke or cross a line, then Joey Lucciano's bad side comes down like a steam locomotive.
Can be very cocky at times, but in general, he's a real Good'fella.
Associations
It's been rumored that Joey Lucciano is apart of the Mafia in Denver, shipped in close to fifteen years ago from a Boston Family back East. But his ties with the Don have slowed in recent months due to outside events and circumstances that seem more surreal and outlandish than fiction; but those in the know, know the reasons and understandings behind the recent fall of grace with Don Aspanu Innocenti.
Affiliated with the Ratto Family of the five family's in Denver's Italian Organized Crime. Made Man and currently (circa 2077) running a crew out of CAS from Chrome and a warehouse operation in the north Warrens. Lucciano used to run downtown Franky's Sports Bar. Franky's is now managed by a company of Family members close to Joey Lucciano. Joseph 'Bigs' Chiozinni & Johnny 'Boy' Regianno crew boss of the Regianno Crew; Ratto Family, Made members.
Lucciano's ties extend to the bigger, badder Luther Sucrease (Capo of the Sucrease Family); big black mean Ork that's earned the respect of Don Aspanu. So Joey's still got friends high above that show him favor.
Recent Rumors
It's been said that Joey Lucciano put up the moeny to buy Chrome from the retired runner Sumashigao. Lucciano used his negotiator, Cassidy "The Dragon" , as a front buyer, happy to just pull strings from the shadows and use the place as his haunt.
"I heard he's working on a corporate take over or buyout of Franky's Sports Bar, yeah, that place he used to operate for one of them Italian Families."
Joey Lucciano's been sighted again on the streets of Denver after a year long hiatus of laying low. Rumor is he was in Vegas with Bigman gambling and taking advantage of the local strip club talent. Seems to be making some minor moves, nothing major in his few months back.
Recent Events
11/2077 - Recently detained by Knight Errant by the Major Crimes High Threat Unit due to a shooting of Derek Simpson at the Stage Perilous downtown UCAS. Rumors swirl about conspiracy theories and hostile take over of Simpson's territory recently ceded from the Ratto - Simpson split off. Joey Lucciano remained loyal to the Ratto Family, the reason he lost Franky's Sports Bar and the UCAS Downtown territory.
»»Daemon Starks lights the cigarette and looks over the carnage, "Boxer, the time for killing isn't far away.. enjoy these quiet moments before and after the storm. Soon enough, You won't remember what quiet sounds like." The Italian exhales smoke and death into the night. Wed Nov 7 22:31:45 2072

+Rep
Joey Lucciano? Oh, yeah. What I've heard is that he's pretty hard-working, very tough, awfully dependable to his crew and decisive. But I also heard that he's moderately paranoid, arrogant, fairly cruel and moderately intolerant. I mean, he's one of the best there is. But overall, he's a real knight in shining armor, y'know? That's all I know..

>>> [Only professional Rigger and full-time bad-ass that I know of who has his vehicles stolen by GANGERS. Holy crap man! Get an active and lethal defense system installed. You know what I'm talkin' about?]
- EarthMage (12:55:02/02-03-70) |
>>> [I've looked under the hood and between the metal on that Armored luxury sports sedan of his. His security system was top notch. It had to be the best of the best professionals to jack that car, not petty street gang boosters. I'm thinking they should either have been shot, or hired, but I heard there was too much on Lucciano's plate to spare them any thought. The point is, the vehicle was returned, and some lucky guys got off easy out of the kindness of Joey's heart I'm guessing.]
- Xenon (04:20:45/02-04-72) |
>>> [Yeah, he's also the brother of that cheating, sneaking, too-smarmy-for-his-own-good boxer, Pauly "The Pulse" Lucciano. Don't mess with either of these bros, ho's, cause believe it- while they may fight, ain't nothin' tighter than famiglia, capisce?]
- BoxingFan (05:35:02/02-09-70) |
>>> [Being rather vehement there, BF. What happened? Pauly win a fight when you were betting against him?]
- Eastwood 3:16 (08:14:23/02-11-70) |
>>> [This man goes by any number of names and has been a fixture in the Denver shadows for years. Reputed to be THE rigger to beat, he is said to command legions of state of the art drones and milspec vehicles, a spy network that the CIA would die for, and a different lady for every day of the month. Suave, debonair, but never one to cross, The Man is just that.]
- Silk (09:14:12/02-11-70) |
>>> [Starks took a lot of hits in the recent mob war, with nearly no one trusting him. Everyone expected him to go to the Simpson when the war ended, but he surprised a lot of people by staying with honor, not money. Say what you will about his personal habits, and trust me, they are repugnant… he does have a sense of self lacking in many others.]
- Nacht (10:34:42/02-11-70) |
>>> [Everyone loves our boy Starks for getting to a prime position, but no one remembers the mistakes he's pulled in the past. Like the heist of a vehicle in a certain part of the Asian Sector that nearly started a bloody war between the Mafia and the Triads. Simpson had to move quick to cover Joey's ass, and Starks was told to go apologize to the Triad leader he'd angered. Whatever happened during that meeting left Starks white-faced and with a healthy respect for Magic to this day.]
- Talent (15:34:17/02-12-70) |
>>> [Ah, the loyal opposition. Many a time have I lost a potential conquest to this guy. A true ladies man and one serious dude you don't want to cross.]
- Widowmaker (16:53:07/02-12-70) |
>>> [I don't fall in for the mafia stuff, but his drones are impressive. Through a complicated series of events I got clipped by an victory autocannon round, fired from a kilometer away — knocked me half a block off a building and into the next one, and I was in the vat for two months getting repaired. It would turn somebody soft into a fine red mist. No hard feelings. He's a relatively good guy…]
- Tinman (18:35:03/02-14-70) |
>>> [Don't ever forget that this man is a danger to himself and those around him. When pushed to anger, he makes dangerous, stupid choices that end up with people dodging missiles and the shadows erupting in to war. He's got no 'back down' switch, so if you ever find yourself in a situation where you have to try and negotiate a peace or other settlement with him? Don't. Just end the situation in the most expeditious manner possible. Never threaten a mans family, Lucciano. It's a bad move for continued breathing. ]««<]
- GEIST (18:35:03/05-15-70) |
>>> [I've worked closely with Joey. Familia is everything to him. And whats been going on with everything lately…lets just say it's surreal. Seems to be a twisted story that is used as an excuse to get at him. Makes no since, perhaps the "gods" are just vindictive, or maybe going crazy. As far as his work goes, he's one tough bastard and someone I don't mind getting my back]
- FireRoach (18:35:03/06-20-71) |
>>> [Joey Lucciano my friends, just the name it's self can and will send chills down even the hardest of Denver. But no-matter how big his toys may be, his heart for his family will always be bigger, for his trust worthy companions, and even more for his brother. A great deal of business and respect illuminates from this man, and most should keep it this way. Pop your mouth of the wrong way towards him or his brother and yo jaw be broken. Work of advice for any who meet him, adress him as Mr. Lucciano or Mr. period, and show him some god damn respected please.]
