NAME: Vincent “Vinnie” Ransom. [Name can be changed.]
AGE: Twenty-eight.
POSITION: Guard.
PLAY-BY: Mark Wahlberg. [Because he's badass.]
PERSONALITY: Vinnie has a rather tough exterior, he isn't the type to show/share his feelings, unless of course you are extremely close to him. He is very protective over his brothers, especially Jericho. He tends to treat Jericho like a child most of the time, and is rather fond of giving him annoying nicknames, such as 'Princess' or 'Squirt'. He teases him constantly, though that's really just the big brother trait going into play. He most definitely is the type to hold grudges, and will find a way to get back at you, one way or another.
HISTORY: Everything up until him getting adopted is up to you.
- Born in Detroit.
- Adopted at the age of Twelve by Grace Ransom.
- He was hesitant about her at first, but quickly grew to love her like a mother.
- The next to be adopted was Ryker, the two of them got along fairly easily.
- Then, Jericho was adopted when Vinnie was twenty, him being eleven at the time.
- Vinnie loved having younger brothers, and treated them just like they were his own blood, as did they.
- To him, Grace was his mother, he had absolutely no want or need to even think of his birth mother.
- Started pulling off small drug deals, which eventually escalated into a full blown business.
- Vinnie didn't want to get Jericho tied into it all, though Ryker already was. Eventually he caved, letting his little brother do minor things. Jericho came in mostly when the other two needed some help, sort of like backup. Only reason he didn't want Jericho getting in on the dealing was because he didn't want him to get hurt.
- Things started to get bad when another dealer, Jack, caught wind of them. He quickly took action, sending men after the Ransom's to prove a point. He ended up taking away the only thing that mattered the most to the boys, their mother.
- After their mother's funeral things slowly started to pick up again. Vinnie grew more protective, as well vengeful.
- Jack made another move when he noticed that the boys were still not backing down. Only the second time, he sent men after them. They ended up firing their weapons at the brothers, Jericho getting caught int he crossfire. Jer was shot in the chest, which pushed Vinnie over the edge. Just when one of them men were about to finish the job, Vinnie took him down.
- After the fight ended Vinnie and Ryker immediately took Jericho to the hospital, waiting by his bed the entire time.
- Seeing his baby brother laying in the blood stained snow seemed to really shake Vinnie, which was the major reason he decided to pull his brothers out of Detroit for awhile, laying low at the asylum.

NAME: Ryker Ransom. [Name can be changed.]
AGE: Twenty-six.
POSITION: Guard.
PLAY-BY: Chris Hemsworth.
PERSONALITY: Ryker is the more calm brother. He is usually quite rational, unless his family is in danger, then it's a whole different story. He, much like his older brother, is very protective over his family, and will do absolutely anything for them. He also teases Jericho, though it's more of siblings bicker.
HISTORY: Everything up until him getting adopted is up to you.
- Born in Detroit.
- Adopted by Grace at the age of fourteen.
- It didn't take too long for Ryker to warm up to Grace, considering her as his mother from the very beginning.
- He was the second to be adopted, the first being his older brother Vinnie.
- The two seemed to get along perfect, considering each other as brothers.
- Ryker was eighteen when Jericho was adopted.
- Helped out with the drug deals.
- Things started to get bad when another dealer, Jack, caught wind of them. He quickly took action, sending men after the Ransom's to prove a point. He ended up taking away the only thing that mattered the most to the boys, their mother.
- After the funeral things picked up again.
- Jack made another move when he noticed that the boys were still not backing down. Only the second time, he sent men after them. They ended up firing their weapons at the brothers, Jericho getting caught int he crossfire. Jer was shot in the chest, which pushed Vinnie over the edge. Just when one of them men were about to finish the job, Vinnie took him down.
- After the fight ended Vinnie and Ryker immediately took Jericho to the hospital, waiting by his bed the entire time.
- He left with his brothers to the asylum, all of them getting jobs as Guards, only to let things die down a bit, seeing as how Detroit was no longer safe.
[If you would like to change a play-by, please run your ideas by me before doing so. There is more information on the two in Jericho's history.]
