watching it fall | rasoio | district eight

Background- It's just like any other factory in District Eight, the one ran by Giovanni Rasoio, like his father before him and his father before that and his...(you get the idea). A Capitol owned factory, left in the trusting hands of the Rasoios. Exports to the Capitol are to a high standard, the products that come off the production line are likely the greatest in quality throughout the District, everything is normal at the Rasoio factory...Besides the shipments of contraband and loan shark business for the poorest of poor who come begging for money, and the violence... Other than that, everything is top notch!

Somewhere in the Rasoio family lineage, someone got bored of the simple creation and shipment of goods, so decided to jazz things up a little and create a 'side business.' With the help of molded family members and friends willing to put their life forwards for the family, the gang operates underground, away from the eyes of the Capitol and Peacekeepers. Their jobs are to drain owed loans from those who have borrowed and safely distribute across the District, any contraband that finds its way into the factory. And well, the Rasoios have their special kind of violence. Why not incorporate textiles with weapons? Well the finished result was a flat cap with razor blades secretly sewn into the peaks, the blades barely visible to the eye. And well, this is how they get their loans back.

Giovanni Rasoio is a well known playboy, sleeping around his wifes back before her untimely demise, many of his bastards run around District Eight. The best of his bastards he allowed to work in the business, they were even allowed to have the Rasoio name, as long as they didn't tell his wife.

The Rasoio operation ran smoothly for a long time. The family stayed true to their Ripred worshiping ways. Even after the terrible death of Giovanni's wife in an arson attack, it didn't take long for the mourning to blow over and operations to continue like normal. The somewhat large family somehow dodged the reaping bullet, until the 74th Hunger Games. Jenoah Rasoio, one of Giovanni's sons, the next prodigy in line to run the business was reaped. The family weren't worried, they had so much hope in Jenoah coming home victorious but a series of events would lead to the seventeen year olds demise in the arena. After it came apparent that Jenoah had abandoned the god of Ripred, ripples tore through the family. And to add salt the wound, Jenoah met his fate by the hand of a strong Ripred worshiper. This lead to many family members abandoning the god, causing a great divide in the family. "Ripred didn't save Jenoah, he killed him." "It was his own fault for abandoning him."

New Plot

"I am from a damn gang family"

They weren't the last words that Giovanni Rasoio was hoping to fall from the lips of his daughter. Unrest was already marching through the house when she volunteered, now the men in white armour are knocking on his door and there is nowhere to hide now.

Daniela hoped to see his empire fall but she was just the piece to trigger it.

One by one, his factory doors are closing, the men in his ranks are disappearing and the cracks in his family are looking more like canyons.

Is there any way for the Rasoio regime to be restored?

Summary- Hey look, a tribute died in the games, lets make a plot out of their family The Rasoio plot was a thing before Jenoah was reaped, it was just put on hold because...Jenoah was reaped .

So yes, it is basically a gang type family, who have razor blades sewn into their hats which they use to cut people who owe them money. Simple. Except, there is a divide in said family, due to the following of Ripred. Is he real? Is there any point in follow the god when he killed Jenoah? Ahh decisions decisions.

So shit is really going down now, Daniela revealed all and the Capitol is on the back of the Rasoio family. There will be death, arrests and avoxing (I don't know which one is the worst). Hopefully threads will kick off after the Ratmas season although blitz day would be fun to get the ball rolling. I am posting this to see if anyone else wants to get involved and I was hoping for some peacekeepers to get their batons out and beat the family.
