The Ancelotti Familigia, Californian borne and bred Mafia, can be tracked back to the early to mid 1940's, known for selling forbidden contraband to American Soldiers during the second world war. Nowadays they are recognized as San Fransisco's most violent and notorious crime family - The only enemy that the Ancelotti family knowingly has is the Law Enforcement and the Gvardia Family - Russian Mafia located in the center of San Francisco.
The organization is rumored to be heavily invested and involved in the trade of Heroin, Methamphetamine, Cannabis, as well as the illegal sale of Weapons. They also have investments in Money Laundering, Gambling - both legal and illegal. The Federal Bureau of Investigations has often times tried to bring the family down, but failed consistently due to the high turn-over rate that the families lawyer seemed to have - They were an untouchable syndicate in California.
The current Mafia Boss, Romeo Ancelotti, has been at the head of the 'table' for nearly thirty-five years now. Romeo was a great man, for those who knew him; he loved his children - Aryin 'AJ' and Sarah - greatly and supported almost everything they did. Romeo even supported his son's desires to become a police officer, knowing that one day he would be able to use his son's insider knowledge to his advantage, should a federal raid ever take place.
The Ancelotti Family were very wealthy, naturally. The mansion that Romeo raised his two children in is located high up in the San-Fran Valley on a hill top. Several family functions, both non-biological and biological family, take place at the Ancelotti Headquarters. Such as today, where Romeo's niece Vanessa is being married off to long-time fiancee and Foot Soldier Antonio Russo.
Ancelotti Headquarters was currently packed to capacity with over two hundred and fifty guests in attendance to the momentous occasion of Vanessa and Antonio's wedding.

Aryin sighed quietly as he sipped from his champagne flute, sitting next to his father at the 'bosses' table. He was currently wearing a baby blue button down shirt with a black blazer over top it, black jeans and white Nike Air Force Ones - he did not look like he was attending a formal wedding, more like sitting at the country club and enjoying beverages. "I don't see why, exactly, I have to be here." Aryin commented to his father, glancing at the older man with a bit more disdain than usual.
Romeo shook his head and pointed at his son with a long regal finger "Because I asked you here, Aryin James. Do not question my motives... besides, it is a party... Enjoy yourself, you may find someone of interest here." Romeo said before turning back to the man beside him - Vanessa's father - and continuing the conversation they had been having before Aryin rudely interrupted.
Aryin rolled his eyes heavenward and drained his glass of champagne before snagging another off a passing tray from the caterers. He let his green eyes roam over the expanse of land that had been tastefully decorated in an array of white, red, and passion pink - at least the decorations weren't gaudy and tasteless, thank god for Vanessa and her fashion designer mind, Aryin thought. Aryin let his eyes wander the staff that was working the party, knowing that if anything, he'd likely be able to have fun with one of them as they were not considered 'off-limits' and 'family'.
Being gay was one thing, being gay and the mafia bosses son, another... Being gay, the mafia bosses son, AND a cop? Might as well call him an abomination to any law-abiding mafia member. He was both feared and hated by most of the men in the MOB - although he often times let the men of his father's army slip with their criminal activities, he still had to uphold the law to a point; meaning he handed out more tickets to Ancelotti family members than was strictly necessary... Call it penance for their crimes, they had to pay some way and God - and everyone else - knew that any member of Ancelotti, even the youngest of Foot Soldiers, had plenty of money to spare.
