Gamma Gambala

One of the most powerful of the Steimz fraternities, Gamma Gambala, run by Giannini Gambala and his family achieved new heights with the help of their young protege Darian Corvalis. Corvalis was loyal and effective, but many working for the mob envied his talents and felt he was likely to threaten their own ambitions within the fraternity.

A steady campaign to undermine Corvalis reached a point where it was likely to be a threat to his life and he was forced to act. The departure of Carlo Gambala, eldest son of Giannini, created turmoil which Corvalis was able to exploit, and he was able to eliminate the entire family in a shocking display of organisation and loyalty which left Corvalis in sole charge within an hour of the launch of his coup, and left the entire family dead - save for the departed Carlo.

Once he had assumed control, Gamma Gambala was no more; renamed simply Gamma, under Corvalis' control it rapidly became the most powerful mob in the city, with the other Steimz mobsters decreeing him the Fratello di tutti fratelli, or brother of all brothers, and the name of Gambala was never spoken publicly again by anyone with a sense of self-preservation.
