Bruno
played by ADAM DUNNELLS

Bruno “The Bulldog” was a promising young prizefighter. Super heavyweight on the amateur circuit. An animal in the ring, his reputation spread as his brute strength made others rich. But he fought too hard and too fast. The incessant hits to the head led to a series of concussions, and although his faculties remained intact, it grew difficult for him to form words or string a sentence together. Soon the Bulldog stopped speaking at all. Doctors ruled him ineligible to fight for risk of death. He was cast aside by the boxing world and lost his livelihood. Until old Charlie approached him with an offer of employment to be a bodyguard. Bruno accepted the position. Grateful for it. And that's when he met Love.
Love
played by ALISON ZATTA

Little is known about Love, which is how she prefers it. She’s seen as the dame on Charlie’s arm. The "young thing" he always has around. She might be a gold digger. She might be unfaithful. She might be attracted to danger. But one point is certain, one criteria that drives her every decision, every action and every breath: Love comes first. In particular, Love comes before Charlie. She's grown to despise the old man. How he treats her. The names he'll call her behind her back. They've held a love/hate relationship for some time now, and she’ll go to any length to come out on top of it, using any pawn she must to get what she wants.
Charlie
played by PAUL GREGORY

Charlie works for the Outfit, overseeing all manner of organized crime: arms trafficking, loan sharking, money laundering and, when necessary, contract killing. It was through Charlie’s involvement with illegal gambling that he made a small fortune on Bruno “The Bulldog”. And when Bruno’s career was cut short, Charlie pitied the prizefighter, taking him in. But Charlie’s role in the criminal organization has reached an end. Word’s come down from the higher-ups – they want new blood to run Charlie’s territory. They want the old man out. But Charlie has other intentions.
Franklin
played by CHARLIE HEYDT

Franklin is an up-and-comer with sights set on running the Outfit. He started out as a young hood making a name for himself by elbowing in on Charlie’s territory. He even had a fling with Love just to spite the old man. And after pulling a score under Charlie’s nose, he was riding high. But then the tryst with Love went south and she ratted on Franklin. She cried foul saying Franklin took advantage of her, and she got Charlie to run Franklin out of town. But now, with word spreading about Charlie’s approaching retirement, the sharks are circling the waters and Franklin is first in line to claim the territory.
Lou
played by CHARLIE HEYDT

Lou is Franklin’s twin brother - the “unhinged brother”. Prone to violent outbursts and a penchant for crime and theft, he enjoys getting in over his head and toying with death. Several years ago, Franklin distanced himself from the unhinged Lou in an effort to not soil his own reputation around town. This familial slight rubbed Lou the wrong way, but then again, he and Franklin never got along too well. However, when it comes to Lou, blood runs deep, and when it comes to his brother Franklin, he would burn down the world.
Mo
played by BRIAN DURKIN

Mo is a low-ranking mobster with an affinity for fine cars, fast women and the high life. He’s a long-time member of Franklin’s crew, and when Franklin makes his move to take over Charlie’s territory, Mo is in line to be second-in-command.
