WELCOME TO THE NUEVA NOIRE
The Nueva Noire Casino is the largest and most extravagant casino in Las Vegas. Complete with a theater, shopping mall, and five star restaurants, it has everything; giving its patrons no reason to ever leave. It’s practically a small functioning city. Not surprising once you realize that it’s run by the wealthiest mafia family in the entire nation. Play by the rules and it’s the greatest place on earth, but if you get caught cheating…
SPADE
Born into a life of poverty, Murphy O’Brian grew up with a group of traveling circus performers. After acquiring enough wealth to survive on his own, he moved to Las Vegas in the hopes of starting a new life. He had seen posters and commercials all over the world proclaiming that it was the greatest place on Earth! Once he arrived, however, he became disgusted with the reality of the city. The poor were oppressed by a corrupt upper-class. Even worse, the casinos themselves were owned and run by mafia families who used their wealth and influence to bribe the local police force. Outraged, Murphy dawned a mask and chose to spread the wealth. He would later come to be known as the infamous casino robber: Spade. Like the reincarnation of Robin Hood himself, Spade steals from the rich and gives it back to poor! Using his circus training, he can easily slip past every guard, security spotlight, and high-tech laser that the mafia has to offer.
ACE
An infamous cat-burglar seeking to surpass Spade’s level of popularity in the city. Unlike Spade, Elena Cooper grew up in Las Vegas after her parents emigrated from Great Britain. Her father was especially lucky at the casinos and life was going well. However, he was soon accused of counting cards and gunned down at the blackjack table. Corrupt as they are, the police chose to look the other way for a mound of cash; courtesy of the casino owner himself. Her mother became overcome with grief, and decided to jump off the penthouse balcony to her death. Infuriated with the injustice that had befallen her family, Ace devoted her life to getting back at the casino that ruined her life. Just like her father, she found her own way to take money from the casino…by robbing them blind at night.
THE DEALER
A tall and slender individual. He walks with such a high level of poise that it’s almost feminine, but don’t be fooled. This man is a cut-throat thug just like the rest of his mafia family. However, he was deemed far too delicate to work as casino muscle. So, he chooses to deal cards on the casino floor instead. If he catches anyone cheating, then he is more than happy to gun them down at the table.
THE BOUNCER
Large and in charge, but not too bright, this man is the typical thug that you would expect the mafia to employ. If one looks closely, then they’re likely to discover a missing eye. This was the result of one of his many street brawls. Make no mistake, this man will tear apart anyone who crosses him and is unfortunate enough to end up in his iron grip.
THE GUARD
Unlike most of the casino’s employees, this man is not a member of the mafia. He’s a bribed member of the city police force who is more than ready to get his hands dirty. His wages aren’t cheap, so you aren’t likely to see him on the casino floor. Instead, He patrols the lower levels of the facility. Making him the last thing standing between Spade and the vault.
