History
Background
Young Tommy MacNee listened to either too many or too few of his Gran’s stories, depending on how you look at it. He lost the faith at an early age because he believed in other powers, powers he could see out of the corner of his eye, or dead-on if he concentrated (though that was painful enough he soon learned better than to do it casually). Plenty of magic in the City of Brotherly Love, but no God to be found.
Aspect: “I’ve Seen and I Believe”
Rising Conflict
Tommy’s father died in a warehouse accident; insurance and workers’ comp denied the claim, and the lawyer who sued them for the MacNees swindled them out of most of the money. Tommy started running with the K&A Gang, first doing errands and holding the bag, then taking on more and more responsible positions as he proved himself alert and competent. At the age of 17, Tom (no longer Tommy) MacNee made his bones. He rose through the ranks until he was in charge of the K&A's relationship with the Scarfo crime family, then took over the entire operation when Patrick Sheehy was assassinated by the Kielbasa Posse in 2007, and fought that war to its conclusion. By 2014, Black Tom MacNee was an infamous and feared figure in Philadelphia, with direct influence as far away as Boston and Atlanta, and name recognition throughout the US.
Aspect: “Infamous Kingpin”
First Adventure
Red Court Vampires in control of the Philadelphia police department’s Internal Affairs Bureau begin a systematic purge of the K&A’s police contacts at the same time that the Kielbasa Posse makes another run at control of Northeast Philly. Of course, the White Court is more than happy to lend a hand to the K&A—as is Downbelow… Can Black Tom fight simultaneous supernatural and mortal gang wars without having to sell his soul to the highest bidder?
Aspect: “All-In on the Cards I’m Dealt”
