The Spadros Family
The Spadros Family is an organized crime syndicate which controls the entire southeast quadrant of Bridges.
History of the Spadros Family in Bridges
In the 15th century AC, the Spadros Brothers construction firm was contracted to build the Bridges dome. As this work took decades, many of the workers brought their families with them and settled on the central island.
In the early 1700s AC, emboldened by the overthrow of the Kerr dynasty after the Alcatraz Coup and flush with newfound power, the first Acevedo Spadros began collecting men around him, calling in favors city-wide to claim larger portions of the city.
As the smoke cleared and the city settled into its new life, the scarred, frightened people who survived the battles wanted strong leadership, which Acevedo Spadros was happy to provide, at a price. With most of the businesses burned and their owners fled to the countryside, poverty and famine meant all the Spadros Family need to do was have access to food and the muscle to protect and transport it in order to win the hearts of many.
