Alright, I'm going to go through this and give my opinion. I always like to see new factions, but before I say anything like "Yay more factions!" I'm going to point out some issues that I see.
Quote:The Don took his own life by taking an overdose of Cardamine.
I may be wrong, but I don't believe that it is possible to overdose on Cardamine. I even checked the Wiki, which says that since it is impossible to build up a tolerance, some just fly totally immersed in cardamine. That tells me that it is highly unlikely that cardamine use kills a man; rather, it is the lack of cardamine that kills.
Quote:Therefore their best chance of survival was to seek refuge with the Red Hessians disguising themselves as the real Outcast people of the vessel.
Now, I'm unsure what to think of this. Considering that the year this all claimed to happen was 720AS, it's more understandable. Today though, I think it'd be in their best interest to actually say "Hey, the Outcasts enslaved us. Can we hop on board with you?" The only faction in Rheinland that currently has any ties to the Outcasts is the Hessians, and, as far as I know, it has changed from ally to enemy. This might only be a vendetta against the RoS, but it is something to keep in mind. Something that I hope you're already quite aware of.
Now, for your equipment and allegiances and such.
I'm first off going to ask that you drop the Bundschuh/VF to at least neutral. There's no hiding the fact that you are not native Rheinlanders, especially with titles and names like Consigliere Fat Padrone. Until you have gained our trust, we won't like you. We won't like you being in Rheinland, we won't like you performing acts of extortion, etc. To put it simply, you're in our home now, and you'll play by our rules. You have to earn the respect of the Bundschuh before you can even consider using our guns or calling us your allies. I imagine it is similar for the other Rheinland Unlawful Factions, although I cannot officially speak on their behalf.
From us, you are likely to receive a response somewhere along the lines of "Get out of Rheinland," or being shot at. Not sure which, but we very much dislike foreign powers coming into Rheinland. At the very least, you'll be treated as highly suspicious and be subject to much scrutiny.
Personally, I think that the idea of a Sicilian Mafia in Germany is... silly. Of course, my closed mindedness when it comes to other's RP is one of the reasons why I'm not one of the deciders when it comes to this stuff. While I welcome new factions and groups and such, I can't give the group my fulfledged support, at least, not yet.
I am also very interested in reading Blodo's response to this, once it comes along. As the RHA is our greatest ally, if he can come up with some full endorsement, it'll likely shift the Bundschuh's views of your group in your favour.
