Hierarchy

Ranking Structure
[IM] – Official Tag

-Don-
[Leader]
(( [IM]Monster ))

T here is one more position above the Mafia boss known as the “boss of all bosses” or the capo. He is the man who introduced the structure of the Mafia, Making Orders. Basically, running the Mafia.

-Boss-
[Co Leader]
The boss, or capo famiglia, makes all the important decisions, much like a
CEO of a company would. Although each mob boss may run his outfit in a different way, they have one thing in common: they are greatly respected and widely feared by their subordinates. All of the men in his outfit pay him a tribute, so he is also usually an extremely wealthy man

-Consigliere-
[Extremely Respected Member]

The consigliere, or chief advisor, is not officially part of the hierarchy of the Mafia, but he plays one of the most important roles in a crime family. He is the close trusted friend and confidant of the family boss. The function of the consigliere is a throwback to medieval times, when a monarch placed his trust in an advisor whom he could summon for strategic information and sound advice. The consigliere is meant to offer unbiased information based on what he sees as best for the family. He’s not supposed to factor emotional concerns, such as retaliation and blood feuds, into his decisions. Unlike the underboss theconsigliere is not required to be a direct relative of the boss. Instead, he is chosen solely for his abilities and the amount of knowledge he possesses. Generally, only the boss and underbosshave more authority than the consigliere in an organized crime family.

-Capo-
[Enforcer]
(( [IM]Technique ))
(( [IM]Vinnie ))
The capo, or caporegime, is the captain or lieutenant of a division within the Mafia. He heads a crew of soldiers and reports directly to a boss or underboss, who hands down the instructions. He ranks much higher in the hierarchy of the Mafia.

-Soldier-
[Street Leveled Member]
(( [IM]Spectre ))
(( [IM]Vincent ))
(( [IM]Shin ))

The lowest-ranking members of the hierarchy of the Mafia and La Cosa Nostra are the soldiers, the grunts of the organization who do the majority of the “dirty work.” It’s the place where the kids start off: running errands, making deliveries, picking up cash, and generally sticking out their neck in the hope of making a name for themselves by demonstrating their loyalty to the organization.

-Associates-
(( Appo ))**

Associates are not actual members of the Mafia but rather anyone who teams up with them on a criminal enterprise of some kind. They could be someone who does business with the mob, including money-laundering bankers, crooked cops, lawyers, politicians, drug dealers, etc. There are also the Italian newcomers who have yet to be made, called cugines, and they play a minor role in the operation of the Mafia.


Also, you will be given "Respect *s" for doing good deeds such as being an active player having good roleplay, and completing missions in the "Italian Mafia - Mission" section. Three respect stars might promote you to the next level on the "Hierchy" list.
