    Description:

    The House of Cards, or Castillo de Naipes, is a underground syndicate inspired off of Mafia Traditions. It began as a group of people who were continuously harassed and robbed when first arriving to the city. Because of this, they decided to stick together and protect each other, forming the foundations of the House. Now that they have been able to not only survive, but to thrive as well, there is a deeper vision planned for Los Santos. They want to build a House for those that are in need of a home to feel welcome and to be shown the way to a brighter tomorrow. Be sure to look out for their calling card.

    The House of Cards lives and breathes three single words that hold them together; Honesty, Loyalty, and Respect. A group of like-minded, selfless people that wish to share the wealth to those that work with and around them. They look to dig their hands into every aspect of crime, so try not to disturb the process, because they do not cause problems for others. They want to be the neutral ground for all criminal groups to come to when there are problems to hash out. The Judgment for the Underground. The meaningless wars and bloodshed within this city is tiring, especially when they start under the most petty of reasons. They hate to see this city burn so they wish to extinguish the fires of hate.

    The rankings are as followed. Emperor/Empress are the Head of the House, the literal case that holds the entire Deck of Cards together. The Ace is the Leader of their Suit. They take care of everything behind the scenes. They are to be shown the utmost respect. The King, Queen, Jack and Ten are the Next in Command of the Suit. They protect and take care of the foundation when the Ace isn't around. The Numbers 2 through 9 are the foundation of the House, risking their livelihoods to bring in the money for the rest of the Family.

    Los Santos will see The House being built before their very eyes. Their goal is based off of the Robin Hood mentality. Steal from the rich, give to the poor. All they seek to do is to better the city and be rid of those with selfish desires. The House of Cards will better this city, one way or another.

    Events:

    After much success of opening Businesses, grow houses and making a ton of money for the House to spread to the city, there were some unfortunate mishaps when it came to a couple of individuals who decided to turn their backs against the House. One decided to be impatient and show no regards to their family, recruiting people for his own cause and eventually broke off. The other released intel to enemies and other people when the House was meant to be secret. Unneeded noses were poking around, their personal greed of trying to figure out who or what the House actually is caused it to disband for a good amount of time. Those that were apart of it either left the city and continued their lives, or stayed within the city under new aliases for their own protection.

    It has been almost two years since the House was spoken about, things have certainly calmed down but now it was time to redesign, rebuild, and reclaim what was lost after the Mutiny. Businesses, houses, cars, and money vanished and have to start from square one. This time, however, the revival of the House will prove to be even better than the first iteration. We have no limitations on what we can do since we have no more crutches to hold us back. The House of Cards will survive and thrive, so let us see what our hand deals us.
