Backstory:
Conti really did want to let go of the streets but the streets didn't want to let go of Conti, born in an italo-american family, his siblings always had trouble with the law but Christian himself managed to remain relatively clean or rather he was never caught. His father was a mafia though guy involved in extortion, racket and drug trafficking, he only saw him between his stays in prison and although his father encouraged him and his 2 brothers to join the family business, introducing him to some players and offering him jobs in exchange for pocket money (The police didn't suspect 12 years old to smuggle crack), his mother, Eleanor Conti, always pushed them to have an honest job. His older sibling, Gino Conti, went on to become a gangster and the younger one went to study law. Christian himself had brawn but lacked the brains, or so they say, he wasn't dumb but struggled in the academics. When his father invited him to officially join the mafia, be introduced to the family and all that, his mother stepped in and said that 1 son was enough, he wouldn't get the others. The old man reacted by beating her for talking back and when Christian tried to stop him he received the beating of his life as well. It was soon after that Christian went with his girlfriend to live away and work a small job as cook in a McDonald's. It didn't satisfy him and after he broke with his girl he decided that it would be ironic if he joined the police. A respectable job like his mother always wanted for him. He could barely believe it when his candidature was accepted and he went to the academy.

And so he became a NYCPD officer. It wasn't long until he had run ins with his family and although he resented his older brother and father, they were still family and thus, he used his connections to keep them out of trouble, even help them out once in a while, his dedication being rewarded with cash and sometimes, info on other gangs so he could bust them and impress his boss, earning him the rank of sergeant. He did what he could to bring his family together, trying to hide the fact he was a dirty cop from his mother and trying to get his family under legality. And then, the plague stroke.

His father was one of the first to die and Conti began to struggle to keep the population under control on one side and on the other, he helped his brother now more than ever. Sending patrols down the right alleys to chase other gangs so his brother and his guys could move in right after it was cleared, warn them in case of government operations in a sector as well as smuggling contraband in city zones as to 'Keep up the moral' of the poor sods and trade for the items needed for survival, canned good being in high demand in the gangs. He spent his free time away from the police to 'Take care of his mother' and that he did, but he most certainly didn't do so legally and the police is way too busy to inquire about a guy in riot gear and gas mask tagging along with a gang.

Some NPCs:

Italian-American, 41 years old, well preserved and with a character. Respects honor and kindness but realizes that there are some things that must be done. Scavenging is a need, the dead don't need these items anymore, but taking things from those who need them is not. Motherly figure that's looked up in the refuge camp she's in and also an excellent cook.

Kind of an asshole, styles himself gang leader after the mob boss died of the sickness and no suitable replacement was found, the italian mob was split in multiple factions but considering his father was one of the most loyal Capo of the old boss, he has a certain legitimacy. He and his gang, commonly referred to as the Napolitans, have taken control of the Plaza Hotel where they pose as just another group of people defending themselves. As of now, the police didn't want to stir up a hornet's nest and attack the place since they're pretty certain the Napolitans have a snitch in the police which would probably warn them. Plus, they've been doing well for themselves and have several police grade weapons and armor. The Napolitans also control some areas of New York, demanding money or supplies for protection from other gangs.
