Zion Vangonie
Sobriquet: El-Jeffe, Jeffe, or the Boss -- incidentally, the double f in the boss's title stands for the double f**king that enemies and intransigent underlings are likely to receive from El-Jeffe.
Appearance: The crime-lord known as Zion Vangonie, wears a signature camouflage-green CBRN suit that has become his personal hallmark. Not only does the suit serve to protect Zion's identity from his countless enemies, but it effectively dehumanizes him to his employees and enemies alike.
Behavior: The enigmatic crime-lord acts with a detached ruthlessness and cold calculation that gives him the impersonal air of a machine. When the Boss does need to communicate with his underlings, he uses encrypted texts, emails or computer generated phone messages. Should he need to make a personal appearance, then there is either a great deal of wealth involved or someone needs to be replaced, in either case the Boss arrives either on foot alone or in the gun-ship of a small-time Houston gang. As a matter of principle, the Boss controls his criminal empire through an unimaginative mixture of fear and greed.
History: El-Jeffe's first recorded appearance within Houston's gangland underworld was in August of 2012, when the Boss set up a large meth-lab in a warehouse on the border of 52 Hoovers-Crips territory. When the Crips figured out the deal, they sent in a death-squad to eliminate the competition, killing the small-time Latino gang that El-Jeffe had been using as his labor unit. The Crips then took over the site and operation as their own. El-Jeffe's counter was to flood the warehouse with chlorine-gas, thus eliminating the resident pests and then he mailed packages containing pressurized canisters of aerosol Ricin to the homes of the gang's family members. The struggle lasted about a year, during which the Crips lost hundreds of relatives and enforcers to simple and sophisticated poisons exploited by Zion Vangonie, while El-Jeffe lost a few dozen enforcers and illegal manual laborers. As the uncontested winner of that struggle, the Boss went on to slowly dominate the other gangs and criminal cartels in Houston and for the last ten years he has been the undisputed kingpin of Houston.
Over the last five years, El-Heffe has begun to move his businesses into neighboring cities across the New Republic of Texas borders. Thus the Kingpin of Texas crime has become the problem of the FAS, Mexico and the Western Alliance States. Apparently, El-Heffe's latest business venture has been into designer drugs as his personal logo: C.B.R.N., also known as C-burn has recently released a new drug called Blue-Sky onto the streets of the New Republic. Blue-Sky is a mnemonic hallucinogen that allows the user to re-experience their happiest memories, the long term affects of the drug are unknown, but it has proven extremely addictive and relatively cheap to buy, which has resulted in a growing use inside and outside the drug addict population.
