Cass was a made man up in New York, and a serious up and comer in the local family. Unfortunately for him, he developed a rather... inappropriate... relationship with the daughter of one of the family underbosses. Only because he'd been a good earner, and a loyal soldier to date did he avoid getting clipped out and out, but being forced down south in exile, in his eyes has hardly been an improvement.

Superficially charming, and with a tremendous capacity for channelled violence, Cass begins a new career, in a rather less prestigious area. He might make a basic attempt to go straight for a little while, but whatever demon he carries will have him back to his bad old ways soon enough, and sure as sunrise.
