[center]History: Born to the prestigious Vitanza crime family, Lance was pampered from birth, given an entourage to cater to his every whim. However, his father had to earn the respect of his own father, meaning that Lance was tutored on the importance of being humble and kind at every opportunity. Lance was raised to inherit his father's business, and carry on the family legacy, something that Lance did not enjoy. Lance hated violence and crime, seeing it as cruel and meaningless, nevertheless, he was taught gunplay and martial arts. As he aged, Lance was put into higher and higher positions in his father's family hierarchy, eventually controlling a quarter of his father's territory. Lance was a natural leader, and people loved him, those who his gang protected, and those who served under him. Eventually, his father retired, and Lance revealed his plans for the city, he would take over the rest of it, stopping all warring criminal enterprises, and preventing violent crime. He was laughed at for this, they stopped laughing when Lance burnt a known crack den to the ground. The ends justify the means in Lance's mind, and those means are more brutal than any of the other crime bosses on the block. The Vitanzas became dreaded, stories being told up and down the east coast of Lance's legendary brutality, all of them true. Due to his status, Lance became the target of many assassination attempts, surviving one barely, being shot in the left lung. The other one, he got lucky. Shot through the heart and left for dead in the basement of a warehouse, a wisp found him, and Lance left, alive and well. When he complained of unbearable chest pain, a surgeon cut him open to find a bullet, resting in his heart, and more peculiar, cutting the heart open had no further ill effects. Returning to the underground with this new ability under his belt, the streets would fear the name Lance Vitanza[/center]
